just a moment to reflect that "anchor baby" is such a poisonously racist/white nationalist term the neo-fascist right has introduced into their lexicon, its proliferation threatens the very basis of *birthright citizenship*. the kind of face-eating leopard mischief sure to backfire on its proponents
what i get from this above all, with the reliance on megacelebrity spox to sell a risky & unprecedented "plan" for the nomination contest, is an incipient royalism. some liberals seem to really want a king or queen, much as cons crave a strongman, so long as they're ✨️glamorous✨️
according to the news sites, it's the no-show socks (millennials) vs. the crew socks (Gen Z) and as a millennial who wears both, I feel like there's enough drama already that neither gen needs this nonsense
Holy. Shit. They're literally saying Trump's felonies aren't that bad compared to the "real felonies". Bear in mind, they're ignoring J6 and "gimme 12000 votes" call and the stolen docs.

Poe's law problem where i can't tell if this is earnestly optimistic advocacy or sarcastically pointing up how stupid & unworkable the present situation is
Alito wants ppl to think Dems want “complete power”. But Ds just want to maintain pluralism&ability for parties to compete fairly. Pretending Ds want total control is a way to convince people that the Republican power grab is in self-defense. From @jbouie.bsky.socialwww.nytimes.com/2024/06/14/o...
one v annoying thing i've noticed in this area is the near-impossibility of affording dressers or desks with drawer tracks that don't break in 2 months bc it's always just a strip of metal stapled into cheap pine or chipboard. a huge market gap btwn Ikea garbage-cheap & the $20k billionaire chairs
i remember reading about this case when it was up for hearing... what a vile, stupid piece of shit this Rahimi guy is. how tf does anyone look at the facts of this case & decide he's a poster boy for gun ownership rights? oh, right -- Texas 5th circuit www.texastribune.org/2023/11/07/s...
