I think people like Senator Eric Schmitt and others are at some point going to have to ask themselves, "Is it worth it? It is worth embarrassing myself like this to make this man happy?"

In the NFL, a personal foul penalty shouldn't be offsettable if it's the second penalty.

Bi Visibility Pros: * Greater social awareness and acceptance * People don't keep running into Bi people Bi Visibility Cons: * Allied spies can no longer conceal themselves from enemies by generating an attraction to both sexes * We can see Krysten Sinema at all times

A friendly reminder to my bisexual friends on Bi Visibility Day that people with partial or complete vision loss in one eye have impaired sexuality depth perception, so be sure to remind them that you go both ways!

To celebrate Bi Visibility Day, let us commemorate the great Benjamin Franklin! Without whose invention we wouldn't be able to see bisexuals.

Hey, all this shit you hate? Yeah, we're totally going to end that after the midterms. Also, that's when we'll start doing the stuff you like.

I wrote a story a while back about a freak probabilistic event where a large portion of the world's population starts dying off randomly, and the first sign that it was happening was a proliferation of celebrity deaths. Now I'm freaking out a little..

They say things happen in threes. But take heart, fellow fans of Dolly and Tim Curry - there *is* another 80-year-old celebrity in not-so-great health, and he is far, *far* less beloved...

Wanted: A security-focused mobile OS (like GrapheneOS) that supports a way of locking the phone in such a way that requires *physical access* to something at home to unlock it. This way a traveler re-entering the United States could put their phone in this mode before going through checkpoints.

"Hey, remember that time the Democratic party completely overhauled their leadership, platform, and strategy because people sat out in the general election?" said no one, ever.

When you withhold your vote in the general (or vote third party), you send a message to BOTH parties. You're telling one that they're not good enough to win your vote. You're telling the other they're not awful enough yet for you to vote against them.

Now, South Carolina's governor will have to appoint someone to fill Lindsey Graham's seat until 2027, when SC voters find someone even worse to replace him.

Lindsey Graham is talking to his good friend Mitch McConnell..

Gamer for Democracy @marcbreaux.com · 08/07/2026
I spoke with my good friend Mitch McConnell this morning. He looked quite restful, but then started whispering, "Marc. Kill me. Please kill me." I asked him if being one of our Senators is really so bad, and he said "I've never been your Senator, Marc." I think he should keep being a Senator.

Lining up behind Platner was clearly a disaster. But Democrats absolutely must understand why people were drawn to him, and continue to find non-problematic candidates who can replicate it.

When your ratings are low, and you have no new content... ...it's time to do YET another reboot of the 1950's classic "COMMUNISM BAD!"

The problem with the Balogun red card isn't that it was reversed. It's that it wasn't *immediately* reversed.

States need to get ahead of a future nullification of parts of the Constitution by SCOTUS. It's not a matter of if, but when it happens.

I don't care about Schumer or Mandani or anybody else posting "Yay SCOTUS stuck it to Trump on Birthright Citizenship!" I *do* care and am very much disturbed about *none of them* calling out how close they came to NULLIFYING THE CONSTITUTION.

If SCOTUS ever directly and completely nullifies a part of the Constitution - which today has shown it's willing to do - there has to be consequences. Has to be!

Three SCOTUS judges voted to nullify the 14th Amendment. Again.

States should #IgnoreSCOTUS opinions that are poorly reasoned or disregard the Constitution. It is the only check on their power. And at the rate they're going, it's only a matter of time. Which state will be the first?
