All right folks, I've had my fun in the wake (pun intended) of Lindsay Graham's death. I'll see y'all again when they finally admit. Mitch McConnell, and on that happy day when that man is dead and gone and we'll be singing in the streets.

After a rules review it turns out that if the prediction is as much of a layup as this one was, it doesn't count as Apollo throwing the dodgeball of prophecy. But that also makes it *worse*, not better, that so many people still stood by him.

The fact that there was a “kill millions of people” button and the button was pressed by stopping doing what we were doing to keep those people alive means the idea that the US was always and only a malign influence in the world is a masturbatory lie.

Having a cooking related post pickup steam on here just makes me all too aware of that: 1. There's a chunk of BlueSky that ain't never walked around the grocery outlet with their granny, begging her for one of those plastic barrels with blue drink in it 2. A lot of folks can't cook.

This is in response to someone finding out that you can buy chicken wings and cook them for cheaper than you can get them from a restaurant. The Treatlers really think cooking takes as much effort as building a house I guess.

My best friend gave his life for this country. He's buried less than a mile from that podium, and two of his children, whom he loved fiercely, are trans. This is just a giant middle finger to a man who was 1,000x the soldier the secretary could ever hope to be.

We attack each other instead. Holding the values of the rich whites who rode the Pullman cars and deciding how generous you'll be based off their service to you specifically But until it changes - which is never may - it's not right to punish people doing this job simply cuz you dont want to end/

Every other week, I see a viral post about "tipping" and visceral responses as to why it's not required and "it's not my job to pay you" regardless of the bill. And again I keep saying.. we're having the wrong conversation. You're punishing poor people to make an under educated point

Southern Segregationists. Yes, FDR helped turn Black voters into democrats, but southern whites were also democrats. And FDR had to keep them happy in order to pass his legislation. So there were often compromises at the expense of disenfranchised Black people

Uh, guys, cooking at home was never a lifehack. Has everyone been under the impression that restaurant food was cheaper than groceries?

strangely, I have argued with people, including trans people, for a good twenty years about shit online and none of it made me transphobic, because thinking that you, personally, are an absolute fucking moron and respecting your gender and fighting for your rights are different things. Now fuck off.

The most dangerous wrong ideas in public policy are the ones that sound so intuitively true that any attempt to push back or even nuance them can be sneeringly dismissed as academic foolishness that flies in the face of 'common sense'. I... may have written a book about this. 👀

I know other people have already said it, but The Last Jedi. And let's be honest - the biggest reasons it was unfairly hated was because of misogyny, racism, and entitled fans who were afraid of Star Wars trying something different.

It’s worth noting that when Jan. 6 happened, the pro-Trump right used dozens of conspiracy theories to try and offload blame from themselves—e.g., claiming it was “antifa,” “feds.” Now, they seem keen to just admit they did it—all of it—and it was good.

Gaza ultimately swung very few votes because everyone who claimed it was what decided their vote in 2024 had already made that decision January 20, 2021. It was like the seventh or eighth attempt by the same exact people to accuse Biden and Harris of committing genocide.

16. White majorities want the upsides, not the downsides. They want Republicans to make whiteness prosperous for them. They want Democrats to make whiteness stop backfiring on them. They want it both ways, though they have never had it both ways. Whiteness and prosperity are polar opposites.

10. This is not to say that Republican presidents are rewarded. Quite the opposite. The restoration of "the natural order" – in which the dominance of white people in America is preserved and protected – *requires* ruining the economy.

4. They want it to be true that success and failure are understood in strictly economic terms. They want it to be true that "success" is rewarded, that "failure" is punished. They want it to be true that voters are a kind of "referee" who sits in judgment.
