“Where’s James Talarico?” they screamed when he took 12 days off the campaign trail due to the flu. Yet they remained silent when Rep. Tom Kean Jr. (R-NJ) was absent for four months and Mitch McConnell (R-KY) missed more than three months.

How many conditional tenses are used to state this thesis? You almost expect the last sentence of the excerpt to be “Maybe not.”

researchers showed 1,950 people videos of cats and asked them to identify whether the cats were tense, fearful, or relaxed. while people were remarkably bad at this task, men especially struggled. this is probably not extremely surprising to anyone who has used a dating app.

Again, you (& I) live in a country where there are concentration camps & people are being disappeared. We can argue about what exactly to call this particular form of partially autocratic political regime, but it’s not a full democracy.

“We are enforcing the nation’s laws. Why is that controversial?” The Fugitive Slave Act. The Three-Fifths Compromise. The Nuremberg Laws. Dred Scott. The Indian Removal Act. The Law for Protection of German Blood. Anti-miscegenation laws. The Defense of Marriage Act. The Reichstag Fire Decree.

I've been immersed in research on Reconstruction in Lousiana and it's a very difficult truth to absorb that the white terrorist movement in the South was among the most successful terrorist movements in global history. Took 10 years but it won a total & complete victory through murder and atrocity.

Every time he says something completely insane or incoherent and the media basically ignores it, they look more and more disingenuous for acting like Biden was some doddering old fool and I am so fucking sick of it.

Warren: "This has been their argument every time -- they cut taxes and say, 'Ultimately it's really going to pay off for you.' What's happened every time? The academics study it very carefully and say, 'What really happened is the richest people got richer and everybody else got left behind.'"

You know, if you *really* cared about the wellbeing of women in college, instead of carping about the statistically insignificant number of trans athletes in sports minding their own business, you’d be railing against these Cornell fraternity cretins who drugged and gang-raped a passed-out women:

At some point, everyone on this side should push for a revival of Joe Biden's reputation, especially Bidenomics, and point to Trump's foolish war as the moment the wheels came off. I wrote this in March. www.editorialboard.com/its-like-tru...

It’s like Trump is *trying* to revive Biden's reputation
Actually, the revision of public memory started before the war.

I was at a bridge tournament a few months back, and there was a young man in a cat-print collared shirt. The cat print had been matched perfectly—it was a thing of beauty. He said he got it on Amazon for $1. He got a dog-print one, too, but thought the cat print was better.

People constantly claim that having a child makes biking impossible. The reality is that the only thing restricting your mobility is hostile city infrastructure. Streets have the power to either give you safe transportation options or force you into a car for every single errand.
