There's rhetorical power in naming the people who choose to vote against it. If I were a Democrat running against them, I'd use it this election cycle

there is a cohort of men who resent the responsibilities and obligations of adulthood — of the fact that you owe things to other people. it is a fundamentally childish impulse that they have reconfigured as the height of masculinity, and i think it informs the parasocial attraction to platner.

I was probably being nice. No idea why! I think just the fact that he thinks he's responsible for (and necessary to) repopulating the earth puts him in negative numbers right out of the gate. He stands out as particularly horrible even in the current lineup of ghouls trying to take over the country

(um, in case this comment has anyone worried, we took her over from a friend who kept going overseas for fellowships and we just didn't think the back-and-forth was good for her, so the second time around we said we'd just keep her; she was 10 or 11 when we got her)

I'm so sorry. That is always so hard. They really are amazing animals. Got my first one 21 years ago and she finally gave up the ghost 16 years ago. She was such a good friend for those five years and made me a lifelong cat person too Take care

Here is the epilogue: the girl was questioned (can't imagine what they needed to ask her) in the atrium of the school where this meeting was held before a bystander asked if she was free to go and then told her she should leave while the getting was good. 2/2

For the record, looked up a news story about this. The crime was that as the meeting ended, she spoke up because despite holding her hand up to be acknowledged at every opportunity for questions, no one called on her. Good thing the cops are protecting us from hearing the thoughts of 14yo girls 🙄 1

Mike Johnson's response to the birthright citizenship decision is amazing. "Well, that's been abused a lot in the past several years." Would he then be open to revisiting some 2nd amendment decisions? I'd say that's a part of the constitution that's been abused a bit of late

Ted Cruz WAS the person who was bragging about how we'd find out if sand glowed from nuclear bombardment if he won the presidency back in the 2016 debates, so "I sweat a little" doesn't seem like it bothers him as much as it bothers the rest of us. He holds human life very cheap

I will never get tired of sharing this clip: not only did he clearly not care that much that DJT insulted his wife, he defended her by plagiarizing The American President: youtu.be/R6RgmyU1hAo Also, JD Vance did the same thing in 2024. Great husbands, ladies

to be fair, the last two wars we started, I learned about when I woke up and my wife was like "oh, last night Trump invaded Venezuela and kidnapped their president" or "oh, last night we've started bombing Iran" It is the single shittiest way to wake up I can think of, short of being bombed myself

This is so straightforward that I don't see why Democrats by and large can't get behind it (well, yes I can: money and bad consultants) Transgender rights and protections do not run counter or interfere with providing a social safety net, healthcare, more housing and even guaranteed housing

I pulled this quote from the piece just to add basically your point: “Every Democrat in a competitive race will have to answer for our most extreme voices, and it will make the party as a whole seem extreme and out of touch.” Doesn't seem to be hurting the Republicans too much, does it?

I can't wait till these assholes dropping the act finally convinced Sotomaior et al to also drop the act and start calling them on their shit at every opportunity. They're racist neo-Confederates. Call them that to their faces. It does no one any good to pretend that this is just normal

I wrote about the Prairieland defendants and the urgency of opposing the extreme sentences handed down on Tuesday. And they likely will not be the last.

I'm not donating a cent or lifting a finger, outside of the voting booth, for any Democrat who doesn't sign a pledge in their own blood to 1) support transgender people's full rights unambiguously, 2) impeach DJT on day one, and 3) at a minimum, increase the Supreme Court to a new 7-6 left majority

You've done a great job making this concise and straightforward, and I think it'll be easy to print it up and make it easy to read the main points at a glance. Stuff that should be obvious but even conscientious people at my job (a school) don't seem to be talking about like I'd think they would be

It's quite obviously a back formation from the title of the game show Win, Lose, or Draw, clearly the first time anyone had used the term that way. People realized that if draw was the singular alternative to winning or losing, it must mean "a tie" This has been another egregiously false etymology

It's sad to me how fast @jamestalarico.bsky.social wilted in his fight against Ken Paxton. He's thrown in the towel on protecting transgender children, who have been the number one target of Paxton and his allies. Turn it around now, JT, and fight for these vulnerable Texans, or what's the point?

Like, there's not as much air between Donald Trump and Graham Platner as Platner would like people to believe. Trump's first campaign, when it wasn't pure racism, was actually pretty populist (not progressive!) and some of the people who voted for him are still waiting for him to wave his magic wand
