Just a reminder: Tillis persuaded the woman Hegseth allegedly raped to come forward with her story, and told her that if she did, it would sink the nomination. She did. At great risk to herself. Tillis then cast the deciding vote for Hegseth. Because he’s a goddamned coward.

A good fresh Star Trek take on those fake isekai title jokes
A tumblr screenshot showing a post and two reblog responses, reading:
1. "star trek would be the ideal fictional universe to get trapped in because you'd explain your situation and they'd be like yeah makes sense. no further questions. fortunately we can use the mysterious warp signature emitting from this system's icy moon to counterface with the solar radiation and slingshot you back home"
2. "I'm from a universe where your world is all a work of fiction." Benjamin Sisko, nodding. "That happened to me once."
3. "I Got Isekaid Into The Star Trek Universe And They Quickly Understood What Was Happening"

Talarico: WHAT I MEANT IS THAT THERE ARE TWO SEXES AND A SMALL PERCENTAGE OF PEOPLE WITH GENETIC ABNORMALITIES.Excerpt transcript from the Talarico interview.

Reporter: JUST TO NAIL IT DOWN, YOU CAN CONFIDENTLY SAY THERE ARE TWO SEXES, A MAN AND A WOMAN.

Talarico: ABSOLUTELY.
