I mean, they're biblical in the same way that the guy who ties a girl to the railroad tracks is cowboy movie... I mean, the bad guys rather famously were the ones behind public executions? One public execution in particular?

The corrupt authoritarian has failed to solve a crisis of his own creation? Only this time instead of blaming his liberal, feminist, immigrant, trans or city slicker scapegoats, he's pitting two of his own constituencies against each other? Leopards, faces, wow we never saw this coming...

Trump has 5 kids by 3 wives, one of whom he buried on a golf course in New Jersey.

(That said, it's also an achievement how white Europeans *from cities* kidnapped farmers from Africa, learned hunting from Native Americans, and to this day have succeeded in convincing 99% of people that they were the brains of the operation in building the colonial economy).

I think men are REALLY selling themselves short here. Look at women? To this day, we can't access higher ed, jobs, or parking lots at night, or fix lawn signs without the threat of sexual violence. With impunity for the attackers.

It's akin to how most mainstream commentators don't talk about the role of misogyny in the rise of the GOP.

We tolerate the abuse and harassment of women and girls, openly and in public. The glasses are just illustrating the reality that young women live in. They are prey, and everyone is fine with it. It's second class citizenship and we pretend the problem is the glasses.

I think that was his initial motive. I think now he's realized he can become The Most Important Kennedy by riding this bizarre death cult to power. More than anything, he's wanted to beat his cousins.

It's because job growth is happening among women, in women's fields. And it's socially acceptable to financially exploit women in a way it isn't for men. Unlike men, women don't "belong" in the workforce. So it's a heavier lift for a female dominated field to push back.

There's also a lot of issues they don't know enough about to care about one way or the other. They're glad to just avoid them, keep their options open, or spout the party / faction's line and change with it when it does. TRUMP is what a guy who can be bought looks like. Just incoherent.

There's a woman on Tik Tok telling a hilarious story about how she beat him out for student government at her college. And how little he cared about the actual job, and his zero interest in doing it well. Which is the GOP in a nutshell.

And the nice thing is this works both ways. I'm in Brooklyn and I get to vote with a guy from Austin because we literally agree on EVERYTHING, instead of having my vote cancelled out by a guy from Staten Island. Geographic voting is bad, actually, on national issues that affect us all.

Kateriffic @hungrykate.bsky.social · 01/10/2026
Abolish the Senate, and eliminate geography as the basis for House representation. This would stop politicians gerrymandering to pick their voters. AND it would mean a guy in Frankfort agrees with a guy in Wyoming, they could vote together instead of Frankfort's vote cancelled out by Chicago.

25th Amendment? We can’t even get network news to air it or even mention it. It’s a massive national media coverup to hide the fact the we have an addled president.

You can't pardon people before they're prosecuted. Even the Pope couldn't pull that off in the Middle Ages; there's no way a guy with a 30% approval rating is gonna make it happen.

I think often of the snarking contempt shown by media towards Dr. Jill Biden who taught at a Community College (gasp!) Meanwhile, Trump bought his degree at Penn. 4 decades later, Jared did the same at Harvard. They're the only ones? LOL. This snobbery is unjustified and pervasive.

SO MANY of the people in government seem to not think their job has any point. It's like Ron Swanson without the heart. They're just there to collect a paycheck - and they're the policymakers! Mamdani brings a "I'm not saving anything for the swim back" energy to being mayor, and it's amazing.

And Hawaii and Hong Kong shows actually, you can. It depends on what China is offering vs what they are credibly threatening, and what the people of Taiwan think of that proffer in a world where American deterrence is weak. Of course nothing is assured. But the field is tilting that way, hard.

Yeah, when they weren't fighting a war with the former Yugoslavian army and wondering if the genocides would reach them too, it was a better time. Ex-Yugoslavian republics in the 90s 💯 sucked compared to the 70s and 80s. Honestly, just shows she's not willing to make a fool of herself.

I mean, why is this scary? It's obviously not true but even if it were, it's just a weird hobby? Like, pilots are kind of weird people to begin with. Who stays calm when a plane is FALLING OUT OF THE SKY and runs through a checklist? Of course they're weird sex guys!

This is a really weird business decision. Why don't they just order less and mark it up? Or increase prices across the board to subsidize their most popular menu item? I feel like this makes no economic sense, which makes me worry even more about the impact of Trump-flation (worms, wars, etc)

Because going to the doctor's office is so much fun, who wouldn't just do it for free? I, for one, love to wait around in a paper gown and then get a needle shoved into my arm. GREAT times! It's just money keeping healthy people from getting an unnecessary colonoscopy!

"If you can't tell us how to get out of the bear trap, you're no better than the guy who said 'hey guys, let's walk into that bear trap and see what happens?' as you stood yelling 'no no that's gonna be bad don't do it!!'" So sick of the insane double standard.

Working in politics about 15 years ago I remember thinking "it is unbelievably cheap to buy a politician. I do not understand why more rich people and businesses aren't doing it. The ROI is unbelievable." And then I thought this was something I should not say out loud, lest people get notions.

"their lack of health care use and other factors" Fun fact, 20-25% of the US population - mostly young and healthy adults, skewing heavily male - have zero healthcare utilization in a year. This is gonna be another fiasco.

Abortions fall into two categories: a late period or the most harrowing medical nightmare and body horror you ever heard. Literally there's nothing in between. It's like amputation. Really, I don't need to be involved, let's let doctors and patients figure this one out.

We have to end months of randomized controlled tests. Once it passes Phase I/II, phase 3 is done in the wild with electronic health record tracking. It's 2026. We need to stop running clinical trials on 1950s tech and with the presumption that people travel as slowly as they did 80 years ago.
