"The Transformers do not endorse the views of the President" okay, great, yeah, it's very normal that you had to say that. This is an ordinary world where things make sense. It's normal that I'd wake up to an official statement from cartoon robots denouncing the man who has the nuclear codes.

Every single person who spent more than a few hours in American concentration camps will be owed restitution. I think a concentration camp stay conferring automatic permanent legal status is a good starting point, and the least of what these people deserve.

democrats, literally the only thing you should be talking about for the next 3 days is donald trump lying about being a 9/11 hero. i dont care if the question is about the economy or gas prices or about how sexually attractive you are, you steer that answer to trump lying about being a 9/11 hero

This is great! I'm curious how the "uncreative" poetic form relates to the "found" poem. Do you consider them relatives?

among many other things I would like to see dems campaigning on, it should be made clear to companies that profit from deals like this that any public lands or resources given to them by trump will be immediately nationalized with appropriate punitive fines

This is given more support by the opening text: "In a time of apparent magic..." "Apparent" here can read like a smirk. And he's careful to say "magic" not "gods."

y'all do not love men or like men, let alone young men. you treat them like incompetent failures when they're like 10 years old. feminists are the ones who ACTUALLY LIKE OR LOVE MEN bc they don't have a patronizing inability to take men seriously enough to hold them accountable and help them grow!

that he opened his The Odyssey—yes, the 3000-year-old story with gods and big monsters in it—with what feels like a pre-apology for what follows ("In a time of apparent magic...") is a shame he should never forget

Forcing immigrant detainees to work for their captors isn’t just exploitative It’s unconstitutional Trump's policies are dramatically expanding both the immigration detention population and the nation’s Thirteenth Amendment crisis ballsandstrikes.org/law-politics...
screenshotted excerpt from the linked article reading as follows:

Forcing immigrant detainees to work for their captors isn’t just exploitative. It’s unconstitutional. The Thirteenth Amendment explicitly prohibits slavery and indentured servitude, except “as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted.” But immigration detention is a form of civil confinement. People held in detention centers are simply waiting—behind bars—for the resolution of their immigration cases. This is punitive in practice, but not in law, as they are incarcerated, but not in prison. Only 12 percent of the people who have been detained at Delaney Hall since it opened have ever been convicted of anything.

I think conspiracy may be a bad frame for right wing election denial because what they’re really expressing is a belief in is the idea that non-white people shouldn’t be able to vote.

I'm just tired of people making up little stories about this guy's interiority when his actions are plain enough. What's in his heart is for the gods. What he has done—and he has done a lot of awful shit—is the only thing that should matter to the people who choose whether to make him a Senator.

Damn right. I even tell young writers under my supervision to stop using the word and call a piece what it is: a review, a feature, an editorial or essay, etc., because calling it content is using the enemy's terminology, and makes artists feel worthless.

There's a cottage industry built around offering advice to young men for money, and and all of it is bad, what young men really need is to buy a cheap bicycle and bike tools so you can fix it and ride it 10-20 miles every day while listening to Moby Dick as an audiobook
