it’s really funny how so many GOP Texans are IRATE about the existence of California, while people in California largely don’t think about Texas at all

I think the phenomenon I've really seen is how many regular people had the reaction of wishing a former president had had his brains blown out on live TV. Not freaks or radicals, someone's mom.

everyone should have to learn how to make a piece of clothing so they can have a more accurate grasp of just how much work goes into clothing production and how horrifically underpaid garment workers are for the amount of work they do

The really funny thing about the “male socialization” boogeyman is when you finally figure your shit out acquiesce to the relentless needling from “other” men about how unmanly you are and say “okay you’re all 100% right, I’m not a man”, THAT’S when everyone starts calling you a man
male socialization? yeah I remember being alone and bullied for being feminine and liked to hang out with girls, and I especially remember never feeling comfortable when "boys were being boys" and yeag

Vance looks uncomfortably like a younger lower budget Nick Offerman which makes me moderately glad I haven't watched that a24 movie yet

Here’s the thing about the Vance pick: it’s probably unhelpful in electoral terms. But, in terms of governance, it’s further evidence that they’re Going For It. Trump 1 was hobbled in his authoritarian attempt by the admin and GOP. Trump 2 will be aided by both. They’re gonna go for it.

There is no situation where leftists won’t respond with dread, and it’s miserable. History is made by seizing opportunities and it’s impossible to do so if you assume everything that happens is going to be terrible

I would maybe like people to stop declaring Trump the winner of the election ahead of the fact because of this or that. Not sure that accomplishes anything. He's still a deranged fucking creepy weirdo, it's possible people don't want him back. Just please and thank you etc.

Well I'm given to understand that today & for a VERY limited time, our nation's political violence party is shocked—shocked!—to learn that we currently live in a world of normalized political violence, and would like very much to know who is to blame. Full Essay: www.the-reframe.com/gambling-in-...

Salt lake City Utah has most of the electronic arts logo already they would just need to finish digging up the rest of the Hunstsman center, I do admit the tit is kind of nice so, that, and people aren't ready to know the truth about that place.

it's weird to think that there could be an alien smell out there that makes humans as high as the smell of catnip does for cats and we just haven't smelled it yet

I have an unhealthful relationship with websites sure but I don't know if I will be able to find something to replace it with that both harms my sense of self AND my social skills as profoundly

Say what you will about it but it is certain that 'the rise and fall of a Midwest princess' will be the soundtrack or an unknowable number of millennial divorces so who can say if it's good or bad

We're science fiction writers. Of course we write stories about the consequences of technological innovations, and no one ever comprehends the story is about the consequences and not the technology

The attempt to get radical leftists to engage with politics as it is lived is actually mostly a struggle to get them to not prefer a glorious suicide over a frustrated life

fundamentally being in the majority on Trump v US is immediately disqualifying for a supreme court justice. it declares yourself in opposition to the foundations of the American project of democracy and limited government. all six of them must be impeached and replaced.
