The whole idea that calling someone a threat to democracy is “violent rhetoric” is so dumb. If you care about democracy, then you want political questions settled by voting, not violence. It’s right there!

“He took away abortion and he wants to be a dictator” should be plastered on every surface and blaring out of every speaker.

Nothing is stopping every single Democratic elected official and apparatchik from taking the airwaves every single day to articulately and decisively repeat a set of cogent talking points about Trump (ie 45). Nothing. Dem PACs could be slamming him with ads now. Stop whining and do that.

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.

Hello from Seattle. The weather is fucking perfect today.

My dog doesn’t get scared on the 4th of July, she gets angry. Which tbh is nice reminder that there’s more than one right way to feel about things

Probably should add an iced coffee too, for a good measure

"you're not American why do you care about the 4th of July" mate I'm Indian, any day someone got the Brits to fuck off back to their country is a national holiday for me

It’s a weird holiday. People go out of town or have annual plans. We almost never have plans.

Age and the Image of Capacitywww.nytimes.com President Biden’s toughest opponent may not be his predecessor. It is the cultural meaning, built up through centuries, that we assign to being old.

wait. critic of what?

President Biden's age "may be nothing but a number," our critic Jason Farago writes. "But the perception of his age has become desperately entangled with cultural connotations of elderliness, formed over centuries, handed down to us through religion and literature and art."
