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.

Does the peg legged pirate image predate Moby Dick, or does the legend conflate Ahab with pirates?

"what should biden do, what should the democrats do" and it is just blatantly a situation where 99.99 percent of us have no influence on it, in such a small amount of time where we'd have no opportunity to have influence on it, and that reality really fucking some people up hard.

I’m gonna eat hot dogs until I can’t see straight.

Literary periodization on stylistic details seems wrong sometimes. You say (post)modernism was invented in 1922 but if you go back and read Moby Dick or even further and read Tristram Shandy, you realize authors have always been silly little guys.

Go figure that the first two uses of this horrific court decision have been to screw over trans people 🙃

"Gavin Newsom is starting a podcast with Marshawn Lynch" sounds like one of those details that you would spot in the background of a movie that tipped you off that the main character was actually dying the whole time

not now new pandemic we got a lot of other shit going on

Colorado reports the 4th human infection with the #birdflu virus circulating in cows. Farmworker. Symptoms like cases 1 & 2 — conjunctivitis. Has recovered. At this point it's clearly an #H5 infection; @CDC will be testing to see if there is enough virus to confirm the N type. This is not surprising

Biden's choosing to debate is the biggest political own-goal since Harrison decided not to wear a coat for his inaugural address.

Age 42 and recent pic (friends were just off camera)

Age (41) and recent pic (just now)

Not only is shit fucked up,. but my cat's kidney disease is getting worse and my mom's having surgery on Friday. Could use a chill week.

Things may seem bad, but we'll remember the overreach when John Roberts is up for reelection.

[guy who is very unfamiliar with the democratic party] well, surely somebody will do something about this

You ever read a student's paper where they came up with their thesis prior to them having engaged with the material?

It's not the worst of it, but what I may be actually angriest about (right now) is Roberts' smarmy smugness and dismissiveness in the final two paragraphs of section IV and the whole of section V. "Fear mongering," "extreme hypotheticals," "our perspective must be more farsighted," and this.

At least the protest music will be good. www.youtube.com/watch?v=n0Jg...

a thing to remember, in all of this horror, is that these are not the actions of a political party that is confident it represents the will of the people, and who is currently out of power and enslaved to a deeply flawed avatar. the struggle is not over and they have not won

i do think democrats up and down the ballot have got to get a lot gnarlier about making it clear that they are running against the court and that the court is a political body of unelected politicians, but i'm an amateur armchair idiot, i won't claim to know how best to do that
