Talking about why Rahm Emanuel is a bad candidate on the merits and actually going into his record is giving way too much credit to Rahm Emanuel. When your 5 year old says he's going to drive a car to Saturn you don't explain why cars can't achieve space travel. You say "cool, sounds fun!"

If I had gotten hit by a car to get this photo it would have been worth it
A man in a black helmet and khaki motorcycle gear rides his motorcycle down a street in Manhattan. In the motorcycle’s sidecar, a dog that looks like a heeler mix stands at attention with his front paws up on the front of the sidecar, his eyes protected by a set of khaki motorcycle goggles. The dog is wearing a harness that sort of looks like a biker vest. He appears to be having the time of his life.

i hope that men notice how whenever a rape story gets widespread coverage, women use it as an opportunity to vent about how fucking disgusting we think many of you are and how many have made our lives measurably worse, and take a few moments to deeply process that.

Chris does it occur to you that you are a problem
Al props up those of us who remain curious into old age. We're experienced enough to recognize its inaccuracies, shortcomings and dangers. It may be the end of civilization but that will be up to others, hopefully in future generations. For now, it is the quickest, most egalitarian source of information that has ever been known to man and my subscription to ChatGPT is one of my most prized possessions (after my guitars and mountain bikes).

If someone contends they've never even heard "Haitian Divorce" or "My Old School," it may say more about them. With incessant news coverage and chart presence, it's pretty difficult to still claim total ignorance. There is a deeper reason why people say they haven't heard it: cultural cachet

I like that in becoming a nazi, you get glowing coverage as a brave iconoclast, and then when you stop being a nazi, you’re get glowing coverage as a brave dissident. Money coming and going. Only way you lose is having normal opinions like “racism bad” bsky.app/profile/trac...
