Reminder for no particular reason that no one knows how this election will turn out, no one can foresee how an event today will impact voters’ choices four months from now, and it is still incumbent on all of us to fight fascism and not acquiesce to doom.

in 2013 I saw a man get a 100,000 hour probation on the SomethingAwful forums and today I saw him come off probation and immediately pick up the same argument, quoting a reply from 2013, absolute next-level hater, I can't even imagine, my man is the Count of Monte Posters

kind of telling that a registered republican tries to assassinate the republican nominee for president who tried to murder his own republican vice president and the republican response is that democrats should calm the fuck down. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Sitting right by two middle aged white guys in a diner. One guy said, “Somebody tried to kill Trump.” The other guy said, “He’s such a dick.” They both grunted affirmation, then started talking about Shōgun. Later, they explained the timeline of Better Call Saul to each other.

Just a reminder: it’s good to oppose assassinations. But you are under absolutely no obligation to treat Trumpists and Trump-apologists as people who are honest, or acting in good faith, when they purport to condemn political violence or violent rhetoric. They’re not sincere.

Wow: “If you grow an acre of corn, it will produce 900 gallons of ethanol, which will get you about 25,000 miles for a Ford F-150...which is, not bad I guess. But let’s say we put solar on that same acre. It will produce enough electricity every year to drive my Lightning 550,000 miles.”

I wish people who’ve decided to abandon politics would at least do the rest of us a favor and shut up about politics

Yeah but a lot of people here have abandoned politics and think that just being loud angry and talking about killing cops is the way to go.

Telling liberal writers to quit their jobs at the nation's largest media platforms would only make the national media more conservative, and I have deep suspicions about the motives of anyone who urges them to do so.

My ex-wife -- who I am still friends with -- worked as an exec at Bank of America for years, and also went out of her way to find customers on social media who had been screwed over and figure out how to help them. Even in bad institutions, there can be good people doing good things.

If you believe it's impossible for someone to hold any kind of institutional power and also be on your side, then you're condemning yourself to a dark road of irrelevance. Sorry. This is how the game is played, and has been since our ancient ancestors first started swimming the primordial seas.

Trump has good days and he has bad days but increasingly it's been bad days. He can't put a coherent sentence together or keep his train of thought but the media is very impressed THAT HE CAN STILL SHOUT. His brains are leaking out his ears.

Seems worth noting that the Republican platform makes a big deal out of fighting crime and inflation, both of which have been plummeting

Examining your own behaviour and understanding what role you may be playing for others is uncomfortable and unrewarding. It doesn't mean you get to be part of a group of people affirming that you are all good people; it isolates you. But it is an antidote to "uwu smol bean"-ing yourself into abusing

Also people who don't acknowledge when they have power over others. It's much easier to think "the bad person rubs their hands and calculates carefully how to succeed in their crimes" rather than "under the right circumstances I too could be the villain in a story like this if I don't self-examine".

I think there are a lot of people who want "abuser" to be a specific category of calculating sociopath, because it absolves them of ever having to ask if their own uncalculated, instinctive behaviours are dangerous in the context of a power imbalance.

Wife wanted to watch a bit of porn as foreplay. It worked. We were like mad, rampant ferrets in a sack, but the split second after ejaculaton the laptop played an ad with the sad trombone. Funniest thing that has ever happened to me and I can tell no one.
