PSA: Murc's Law and "F--- Democrats" is not leftist. Being intentionally wrong/ignorant is not leftist. Being a hypocrite/self-contradictory is not leftist. And "logical" means "consistent with the facts and itself" not "said what you wanted to hear".

The voters who intentionally refused to do the right thing really don't want to admit how much permanent damage they did it's literally impossible for Democrats or anyone else to ever undo. Lives that can't be brought back, land that can't be restored, experiments and projects that can't be revived.

The Trump administration’s actions resulted in the destruction of the largest ancient Cottonwood tree on Indigenous territory in Arizona. This tree, known as the “Grandmother Tree,” was 250 years old.

As a Catholic, like Alito, I think it's so important for you to know how little—how absolutely not at all—your marriage (or your LGBTQ identity) impacts my religious liberty. In fact, refusing to acknowledge your marriage (or your LGBTQ identity) is a grave affront to your innate human dignity.

I love how the sanest, nicest, most grounded character in Control Resonant is just some semi-random-ass civilian doctor lady you rescue during a quest who joins the FBC just because she figures, well, somebody's gotta heal and look after all these weird paranatural researcher nerds, right?

I once again lament that our laws really only account for when people directly do crimes, and not for when their indirect actions cause crimes that nevertheless trace back to them.

If any Democrat said this, the GOP and it's supporters would be ringing the alarm..... but because it Trump saying this, the GOP and it's supporters shrugs their shoulders, make excuses, and say it's just Trump. The double standard is amazing.

The thing that amuses me about the Sliders fandom is everyone agrees the show jumped the shark at some point, there's just disagreement about which precise point. (When Arturo left, for me.) I also stopped liking Xena after they made Gabrielle just mini-Xena. Way to screw up a character arc IMHO.

Noting and reminding everyone that Jair Bolsonaro was *jailed* for his equivalent of "January 6th". And it didn't matter, people still voted fascism back in anyway. Jailing fascists doesn't do jack if it doesn't actually change the culture that voted the fascists into office in the first place.

Somebody at Remedy sure did decide during writing Control Resonant that they wanted everybody who's had an abusive parent to get to a certain part of the story then turn off the game/stream and go have an existential crisis moment with their therapist. Holy crap man that was an... experience.

What annoys me about stuff like this, or the "[x] person is a secret transgender/homosexual/Muslim" or so on stuff, is that the person has to waste so much energy claiming they aren't something that *isn't a bad thing to begin with so it shouldn't matter one iota hell even if they were that thing*.
