I for one do not think the Democrats will fall over themselves in haste to abandon Joe Biden for the sake of perceived political expediency. it’s not like he’s a trans kid seeking healthcare

looking at my shopping list at the store and got randomly shoulder checked by an old man. thought I had been in his way and apologized to his back before realizing there’s tons of room and I’m the only person here wearing a mask

ah, July 4th, the day USer celebrate how a band of brothers overthrew their own monstrous ur-father and made a pact between themselves to split the resources he had denied them and enjoy the fruits of theft, extraction, and domination themselves in harmonious equality and freedom

check out this frog I met!

first off in some cultures its actually perfectly normal and okay for narcissists in their dimmest twilight years to retain power no matter the cost to them or anyone else

you don't change dead horses mid stream

a cool thing I can't get out of my head today is barack obama saying "we tortured some folks." anyway, look, while whatever comes next from the unitary executive may be nightmarishly bad, hey, at least it also helped give us the war on terror!

you whiners need to STOP criticizing the president - Joe Biden is perfectly capable of getting Donald Trump elected all on his own!

court rules the Purge legal if you’re President which tracks TBH

right now a lot of guys who have led lives of trouble writing dementedly punctuated Missives to the Admiralty Court of their HOA and numbering papier-mâché DIY license plates with their own blood are realizing they could have instead just made friends with Harlan Crow

The impotent 'dissents' by the Liberals on the court portend what to expect by the Democratic party.

SCOTUS is telling us that it has completely signed on to the project of a second Trump administration, which is establishing an elected autocracy.

well, it was pretty shitty while it lasted

this is the most important election of our lifetimes. democracy, the right of the people to be ruled by their chosen best, depends on your vote for a man who answers the question "what if the cryptkeeper got a prion disease" and who can probably execute basic tasks for an hour or two during daylight

recording an @unhappinesspod.bsky.social on "The Idea of You" feat Anna Shechtman was a delight in its own right then but two days later @counterfactual.bsky.social asked "wait, did this movie not have ENOUGH incest?" and it all became + 💯🎯 like the superego commands: enjoy!

I am once again asking you to consider that an entire information ecosystem established as the primary form of communication over a hundred years and allegedly regulated by the federal government was destroyed by scammers virtually overnight and we just don’t, like, ever talk about it

The first rule of avoiding scam calls is to never answer unknown numbers, and even some known ones. Curious? Bored? Worried it’s an emergency? Wait the extra minute it takes for the call to go to voice mail, then decide if it’s legitimate.

Sick of scams? Stop answering your phone.www.washingtonpost.com Phone scams are still hugely popular — and they depend entirely on people curious enough to answer.

whether they indefinitely suspend elections or gleefully do war crimes, sometimes having allies in the defense of democracy means never having to say youre sorry or slowing down the flow of arms

I know people have feelings and many of them are valid but one thing about visible speed cameras besides dissuading speeding is they never end up shooting the driver like our other method of enforcement does

oh look at that www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/202...

D.C. traffic cameras have led to sharp decline in speeding, data showswww.washingtonpost.com The city has installed 477 traffic cameras. On some roads with the devices, citations fell by more than 95 percent. But traffic fatalities are still rising.
