is it ethical to post on this site after it harassed jamelle bouie into leaving?

been watching Copa America for 11 minutes and I feel like I've aged 10 years

just made some kick ass lentils

belting out "Un dí felice eterea" as I paddle my gondola through the recesses of political ideology

been weird to see how deflated the fascist accelerationist accounts on telegram became after they figured out the shooter was likely right wing...

Do we even know who the shooter is

Scott Jennings on CNN right now saying this is on Dems for saying Trump will end democracy on the US. And Bash and Blitzer are like, yes, we have to tamp down the rhetoric on both sides. Absolute marks. Jesus Christ.

Lester Holt just referred to Trump as “the president” so that’s how that’s going

here comes the caesarism-bonapartism-trumpism

multi-tasking by watching The Boys, monitoring telegram accelerationist channels and reading a book about the Confederacy's Bonapartist proclivities.

could we stop with the WE’RE DOOMED whenever literally anything happens

look i know we're all clinically depressed leftists but automatically going WE'RE DOOMED does not seem prudent

I know it’s a scary and uncertain time in our country. But the good news is that there’s a clear path to better days: with just a $10 donation to Shaun King, you can

it was just a blip four years ago, but there's still a Greater Idaho movement that rlly wants to annex a large chunk of Oregon, and if Trump is elected, he'll probs just let them freeboot it.

And the next time I see you we'll be down at the Greeks There'll be whiskey on Sunday and tears on our cheeks For it's stupid to laugh and it's useless to bawl 'Bout a rusty tin can and an old hurley ball

In a day I'll be over the mountain There'll be time enough left for to cry So good night, and God guard you forever And write to me, won't you, goodbye

it's legit hilarious that the Know Nothings are part of the pantheon of Degenerate Populists in the rational corpus of US history, bc if u look at their actual behavior, they're just like, "either you're more British than William the Conq or ur a fucking foreigner."

PEOPLE WHO JUST SPENT TWO WEEKS SETTING JOE BIDEN ON FIRE: Looks like setting him on fire was an error. However, he probably can’t survive the fact he’s on fire

I haven't felt this self-conscious about my stutter since becoming an adult. People are being relentless ableist assholes. Please understand how speech disorders work and realize whatever shit you're thinking about Biden, we can perceive what you are essentially saying about ALL OF US.

Hey wow as someone with a stutter y’all are not kind At all Do you know what happens when you have the kind of stutter where you swap words? Your brain makes an association in a split second and you go “no, not that”, especially when nervous, and it just blorts out of your mouth.

honestly, the idea that any red-blooded American should be sober at any point between now and December is idealism

I lol'ed

typical of conservatives; the other turn of the screw is the accusation that all gays are pedophiles while trying to lower the age of consent in order to marry 15 yr olds

The presidential candidate who rapes girls wants to stop girls who are raped from getting abortions.

Maldoror, ocean of our time, we breathe your froth and your pain

I mean, I'm hedging because the polls are going to stay tied, and Biden isn't dropping out because the country is like that, and if he wins, it's going to be so, so funny
