The numbers aren't there to remove Trump from office even if Dems get the best case scenario out of the midterms, but that doesn't mean they shouldn't do it. The point is that Dems need to show a desire to hold him accountable. Anything less portrays weakness.

This weird desire to redeem Geller as soon as possible feels like a combo of people not wanting to lose him as a creator and also the fear that they themselves could create something as large as Geller and lose it overnight. They don't understand that part of redemption is the consequences.

I appreciate that Geller isn't trying the feign innocence here, but holy shit is this bad. He built a career partially out of presenting as a feminist leaning "safe" man and presented himself as that to other creators who boosted his career without knowing his history.

If the Danielson/Mox reconciliation wasn't enough we got Bryan coming out of retirement to back up the Death Riders. What an incredible, sad, beautiful night. This is what is fucking about. Wrestling is full of love.

Bryan Danielson burying the hatchet with Mox in storyline over their real life grief over the loss of PAC is one the most beautiful fucking things I've ever seen in professional wrestling.

Okada vs Ciampa is by far match of the night so far. Total vibe reset.

I get that Borden is really gifted for how new he is to this, but why the fuck did they give a rookie a spot like that? I really hope this show can salvage this, but I'm worried this is going to be All Out 2020 all over again.

Bojack being only #44 and the only animated show on here really makes it clear how the entertainment industry views animation. I mean not even putting The Last Airbender on here? Not a single anime, but Squid Game (which took a lot from Kaiji) is there?

Rogan is an opportunist. He backed Trump when it benefitted him because his dude bro audience vibed with him more than the Dem establishment. Now that Trump has lost everyone, but the most diehard MAGA loyalists Rogan has realized he has to pivot left to stay relevant.

Me 7 Episodes Into The Wire: "McNulty seems like an alright guy compared to most of the police in this show." McNulty at the Start of Episode 8: "I will use my children to spy on a highly dangerous criminal tied to a double digit murder count."

El-Sayed is one of the few Dems to even fucking bother to acknowledge how unserious the trans women in women's sports debate is. It really isn't hard to point out that it's a nonissue that Republicans obsess over while everything else in the country goes to shit.

Recently started watching The Wire and I love how one of the big themes already is how police officers' loyalty towards one another drags them all down. Even the ones that seem "good" on the surface will jump in on brutality if it means defending their own. They value each other over justice.

Getting caught up on AEW and the tribute to The Butcher and Rebel is getting me to tear up. One of my father's best friends passed from ALS. It's such a horrifying disease. I hope so much to someday get to witness a cure/vaccine.

I hope this shit gets resolved for him. YouTube has had shitty relationship with video essayists for years, but it's reaching a whole new level. Every video essayist needs to be concerned about this.

There's something really sad about having family that are supportive, but not in the way you need them to be. Like they'll move heaven and earth to try and set you up with a better paying job, but don't understand that you're already burnt out from employment and disillusioned with life.

I've come to understand this feeling so much since I started being employed. You burn through so much of your energy stores just working and then you get home and you can't even do shit with the time you have left over which makes it feel like your life is nothing but work and recovery.

Looks like I got a job interview and don't even know how to feel about it. Job doesn't seem that appealing and I'm already burnt out from my part-time job. It feels so fucked up to be pressured to move to full time like this when I wish I could just stop everything for a few months and recover.

Continuing the hyperfixate on Deltarune. I find it so interesting how such a strong theme of the game is how these characters are going to have their own thoughts and agency outside of the player's influence including the main character of Kris.

It's crazy the degree to which older established artists who already have more than enough to retire are willing to endorse AI. They aren't the ones who have to navigate establishing themselves in markets full of slop designed to replace them. It's easy for them to ignore the consequences.

Finally got caught up to Deltarune. Genuinely adored it. Undertale was already one of my favorite games and Deltarune has so many of the same qualities that made it great while doing things to set it apart.

At Death Before Dishonot. Why does Tony keep insisting on booking Lio Rush to lose despite being insanely over? Like why on Earth did Andretti need to win here?

I find it so funny that before his huge matches against Danielson and Ospreay in AEW he had goofy comedy matches with them in PWG. Like two of the greatest of all time just going out there and doing fun dumb shit like this.

At this rate every left wing member in the house needs to refuse to vote for him as leader. He so clearly doesn't want to work with the socialist wing of the party. Our vision for the future of this country isn't possible with him as a leader.

We aren't noticing it in older groups because they aren't the ones getting diagnosed. Most who get a diagnosis get it when they are a child. We didn't start seriously diagnosing it until the 90s. The reason for the spike in autism rates is pretty obviously bothering to diagnose.

The whole AOC "Woke 1.0" controversy is so stupid because for one thing she's quoting someone else and another nobody can even fucking agree what Woke 1.0 even means. Some people consider it to be 2020 BLM era progressive politics. Others think it's mid 10s Buzzfeed pop feminism.

I can't think of a better way to sum up AEW and WWE's view on the value of wrestling matches than match times on their most recent PPVs. At Redemption there wasn't a single main card match under 15 minutes. At Summerslam there was only 2 over 15.

Imagine being one of the most talented wrestlers in the world, never winning a singles championship after a decade at your company, then when you finally win one they use your moment in the sun to advertise root beer. Should've gone to AEW.

I'd really like to switch to working 4 days a week instead of 5 to give me more free time to work on other aspects of my life, but the problem is that I know my work would just cut my hours instead of distributing it to the rest of my shifts.

The standards for parenting in America is awful. So much more emphasis is put on a parent's authority and control over a child than supporting and respecting them. And those in power don't want us to acknowledge this or the obvious ramifications of those poor standards.

Having now watched both Aqua Teen Hunger Force movies I feel the best way to describe them is Plantasm feels like an Aqua Teen Hunger Force movie and Movie Film For Theaters feels like an episode stretched out to an hour and a half.

If this was about representing black voters Georgia would have made more sense. This just reads as an obvious attempt to take the wind out of AOC's sails to prop up a more moderate candidate.

Hopper is one of the ten highest grossing films of the year, but we've reached the point where unless you make a billion it's deemed a failure. The entire entertainment industry is teetering on the edge of destruction because of obscene levels of corporate greed.

I know this is a difficult idea for people to engage with, but maybe just maybe the Democratic Party deserves a hostile takeover for how they've failed to hold back the rise of fascism and oversaw capitalism decay our economy.

Twitter is still worse, but man the Blue MAGA presence on here is obnoxious and the Platner stuff just made it so much worse. They act like the entire left wing movement needs to answer for one man's misconduct when he's already dropped out and is being replaced.

It's pretty obvious the Democratic establishment resents and organizes against DSA candidates far more than Republicans because Republicans don't threaten their safe blue seats and consultant positions while DSA represents them losing their positions within the party.

At the TADC finale the shippers in crowd went nuts for moments like Pomni and Ragatha hugging, Maid Jax flirting with Gangle, and the credits moment with Gangle and Zooble. They were getting fed that day.

Is it fucked up that my major piece of advice I'd give to young people is "Never move out of your parents and work as little as you can possibly get away with."? The fantasy you envision in your head isn't real. It's a wasteland out here. You will end up spending every day mourning your old life.
