Show this to everyone who’s like “But THEY don’t belong in my Eurofantasy construct!!1!” African red-slip pottery was excavated from medieval digs in Europe decades ago. Now we have more evidence of even broader trade networks. Our species likes hanging out with new people and trying new things.

Did the pottery in ghost even turn out that good?

I mean, Trump is an insane felon rapist and a lot of people still voted for him. There’s no rule that says we have to honorably give a shit about if our candidate comes off as slightly addled, especially when we’ve got a perfectly good VP who can take over as soon as he makes it past the post.

Yep. One of the biggest blind spots people have is assuming that underneath, others share the same basic values as them. They have trouble imagining an ideology that is completely misaligned with theirs.

Considering the Federalist Society has been holding a grudge since Brown v. Board of Education it shouldn’t be surprising, and yet!

An aspiring dictator & convicted felon w history of treason may win the presidency. Profoundly corrupt SCOTUS justices undermined the constitution and gave him immunity from prosecution for past & future crimes. This is all political journalists should be writing about 24/7. We’re at the precipice.

"Amidst all the tearing of garments and vultures circling, the fact is that we’re still pretty much where we were pre-debate. There are two questions: Is Biden fit to serve? And, would Democrats benefit by forcing him off the ticket? The answers remain 'he is' and 'probably not.'"
The pundit class needs to get a gripwww.publicnotice.co Politics isn't fantasy football and there's no One Weird Trick to beat Trump.

The president who was willing to use the military to oppose and vanquish a seditious faction that was waging war against the United States is now considered our greatest president it occurs to me for no particular reason.

i mean even if you buy every single scaremongering story about biden’s mental capacities, he’s hired people who are working to do shit like green infrastructure and antitrust enforcement and forgiving student debt his opponent’s staff’s priorities will be very different
It also makes me feel insane that the rat fuck around Biden’s age and mental capacity is being uncritically spread around by Democrats when Trump is *incredibly obviously* grotesquely mentally incapacitated, in a way that is genuinely terrifying.

Voting can be an important tool. It’s just one tool. What we also need is better organization and a willingness to sufficiently press power between elections. We’ve been far too polite a populace. We’re going to have to stomach some disruption we haven’t been willing to though.

Look everyone, the Heritage Foundation is just like those scrappy New England farmers who picked up their muskets to preserve their freedom from an overweening government. Anywho, here's the list of donors who gave Heritage >$100K in 2022. This is just one year.

Too many US reporters are too bone-ass stupid to realize that they’re going to be among the first thrown to the lions by an unleashed Trump regime, on *principal*.
Going to the coliseum in ancient Rome probably had a different feel if you were sitting in the stands vs. down in the dirt. I feel like right now democracy is down in the dirt and most journalists are just sitting in the stands eating snacks and hoping for a good show.

Who are the voters who say ‘everything that came before was ok but I draw the line at him watching Russian whores piss on a hotel bed’?

I don't know how you lose running against a Court that wants to prosecute the pregnant and preemptively pardon that perpetrator.

It would be inspired decisive action that would make it plain he was doing something right when the national mood is FUCKING DO SOMETHING so it's a good idea. Unfortunately I have no faith he'll actually do it.

and maybe if they did eventually notice, it might trigger a "how did the very old man do this?" response rather than "we talked to a Federalist Society lawyer who explained all the ways Biden's Stop Grinding Orphans into Dog Food executive order is blatantly unconstitutional"

not for nothing but if i were in the biden admin, i’d ram a whole megaton of maximizing executive orders through while every reporter in america is fixated on biden old, since they’re clearly not going to cover anything else this week.

This is almost word for word what I tell students. Even if you’ve been disillusioned by what’s happening at the state and federal level, you need to get out and shore up your local politics.
It's not going to come down to a president or red states or blue states. It's going to come down to electing mayors and city council members that are brave enough to say "you're going to need to send in the National Guard if you want that shit enforced here." This is why we vote.

Biden’s debate performance was bad and newsworthy but it’s basically the only thing the Times wants to write about. It has like two pieces on the French elections, three on the landmark disastrous SCOTUS ruling, and like six or seven still running on Biden’s age

And apparently many people are staying steady.

Breaking news: President Biden and his senior team said they accepted the grim ultimatum they’ve been hearing from almost all quarters of the Democratic Party — to demonstrate his fitness for office or face a significant effort to force him to step aside.
Biden and aides concede he needs to quickly demonstrate his fitness for officewww.washingtonpost.com Critics have been shaken by his relative inaction to directly address the panic ignited by his halting debate performance last Thursday.

i was just going to make a post about this. if trump decides you are an enemy of the state or a “threat to national security” and has you deported, citizenship or not, there’s nothing you can do to get home. he has full legal power to render you stateless.
Related, if trump is summarily deporting citizens under his new mass deportation regime, citizenship and an ability to appeal to the law isn’t going to get people back in the country. The executive runs border security

Notice how everyone is somehow talking about Biden Too Old right now, and NOT about how the Supreme Court just legalized Trump being a dictator for life and gutted the administrative state, and how the Heritage Foundation is now issuing terrorist threats? Think that might not be an accident?
That part isn't the disinfo part. It's the chaos and rumormongering that is going to be used to get Mike fucking Johnson etc. into power once they push Kamala Harris out of the line of succession. It's also being used to distract everyone from mounting a coordinated response to the Supreme Court

Antivaxxers have been pretty active in the vetmed space for a while but when I have a reluctant member of the public, describing end-stage rabies and how we test for rabies usually does the trick.
