Have you heard the joke about Orion's belt? It's a giant waist of space. … Sorry, that was a terrible pun. I give it 3 stars. But I’m sure the follow up will be stellar.

if the media could go ahead and treat this claim the way they treat Biden saying "I'm fine" - aka, as a lie that requires days on end of front page stories to debunk - that would be great we'll be over here waiting
Trump is trying to get ahead of the reality that he and the heritage foundation are working to destroy America and institute a fascist dictatorship. He is lying and expecting the media to gaslight America for him.

one of the most cowardly arguments i keep seeing from columnists is that nothing breaks through with trump supporters, so it’s a waste of time reporting on what he believes. this should be seen as a critically damning failure on behalf of the fourth estate. this means you failed. it’s not a pass.

I have no idea the best path re Biden but I do know a solid week straight of “Biden Old” and “Rich Dems Worried” above-the-fold stories are *obscene* in the face of SCOTUS using the Constitution to wipe their asses purely in the service of reinstating a felon rapist as president. Crazy-making shit.

The fascists really are cashing all the chips in now. Vote. This fascist ghoul will, no matter what he says to the contrary.
Suprise: unwashed fascist ghoul Matthew Walther - who wrote a column that the New York Times just published advising Americans not to vote - did in fact vote in 2020 and 2022. It’s time for us to stop tolerating these ratfucking liars.

Sorry, folks, this year "no vote" is a vote for fascism, don't be that person, voting is a necessary if not entirely sufficient act

Using the overturning of Chevron to ignore Bostock… I guess judicial activism is okay when it’s conservative.

Happy independence day to all who remember why we declared independence and a very fuck off to those who think kings are good actually.

Keeping Trump out of the White House isn’t the only thing that needs doing and it isn’t enough to solve all problems facing the country & world but if it isn’t done then all those problems get exponentially worse in ways I don’t even know how to express and it scares me when people pretend otherwise

Remember when Howard Dean made a weird noise during a speech and everyone decided that was enough to make them not vote for him? Remember when Dan Quayle misspelled 'potato,' and everyone called him an idiot befor deciding that was enough to make them not vote for him. Pepperidge Farm Remembers.

have said this before but trump’s brain is pretty obviously far more cooked than biden’s if you listen to what they actually say. but the presentation - basically trump being a spaz - makes trump *look and sound* less cooked to many people i think
Biden v Trump is a pretty direct ageism thing. Trump is aging worse than Biden, but due to vanity and aging in different ways Trump codes as less old and therefore gets way less shit for it.

i was just all "biden is a turd sandwich that i'll still vote for" and then they were all "THERE'S TURD SANDWICHES AND THEY'RE GONNA MAKE US EAT THEM" and i'm all "yo hold your horses amigos of course it's a turd sandwich that's what they purvey at this here purveyor" and they're all "i shit my pant

if your instinct is "calm down, surely this is an exaggeration," allow me to assure you that it's really not
"Don't worry, if the president imprisons his political enemies, you can still get a writ of habeas corpus." "But to prove that's why you've been imprisoned requires proof of..." "Presidential motive!" "And under Trump v US, presidential motive is..." "Inadmissible!"

Ever notice that the people from older generations that write articles dumping on younger generations are always affluent? Like, maybe it's just rich people who suck and the "generational divide" is just a distraction?

Trump has a huge advantage in that the media has decided that his grotesque unfitness for office is just another part of his "unconventional" and "controversial" brand because it brings them big infotainment dollars
