Is there any lesson to be taken from the French moderate liberal and left earnestly trying to cooperate and help one another defeat a reactionary threat to democracy? Yes there is, until anyone one degree off from my personal political leanings pisses me off over anything, and I mean anything.

Long election campaigns also put the emphasis, over and over again, ON THE ELECTION rather than on governing: like voting is all we as citizens have to do; like winning is the most important quality in a candidate. GOVERNING. The thing is GOVERNING. Elections should be a means of accountability+

Long elections waste immense amounts of money. they harass potential voters into apathy. They play into the horse-race, scandal-fed view of politics that feeds deeply unserious media coverage. They NOT INCIDENTALLY make it difficult/impossible for campaigns to deal with last-minute surprises.

I went to the dentist & she had a screen above chair w/Netflix, which suggested Bridgerton & I thought why not check it out and WHY DID NONE OF YOU WARN ME THAT THERE WOULD BE A TEN MINUTE LONG STEAMY & DETAILED SEX SCENE RIGHT AT THE TOP THAT I WOULD HAVE TO WATCH WHILE SHE DRILLED MY TEETH

coming out of my auction stupor to see folks are suggesting we do a presidential thunderdome. do the political elites need a weighted blanket & some chocolate milk???

Thanks for accompanying me on my journey, everyone, the fact that this brought joy to so many people makes me feel like my dignity was not sacrificed in vain

This. I thought I’d affect an air of refinement at the gym by watching my next episode of “I, Claudius” on my iPad at the elliptical trainer, and it was ALL TITS AND ARSES.

Whoever pitches this to Netflix first is going to make a FORTUNE. "It's like that British show, Gogglebox, meets Squid Game. But with kind of a 90s Nine Inch Nails video aesthetic and REALLY thirsty."

tbh I would probably pay more for a dentist where I could look at nicola coughlan's breasts while having work done, but you don't get that on medi-cal

oh my god the cringe just crawled up inside my body

And she does a truly fantastic job of it! So much so that it makes getting dental work while watching them VERY AWKWARD

friendly reminder those long steamy detailed sex scenes are choreographed by an Intimacy Coordinator (Lizzy Talbot)
