The real conservative objection to VA redistricting is pure Wilhoit: you have to obey laws & proper procedure & we don't. They can't just out and say that in public though, at least not yet, so they are desperately flailing about for some kind of cover argument.
I compared how woman were depicted as villains or victims in Shakespeare’s tragedies vs Greek tragedies. English Honors with an assist from the Classics department!
Kindle app push notification Still thinking about this book? "The Traitor Baru Cormorant" by Seth Dickinson

Narnia for me. The food is dope, Santa is real, and my cats would be able talk to me.
Catholic leaders need to stay out of politics. Except when they are endorsing Trump or denying Democratic politicians communion.

Artemis II Leslie J. Anderson When Prometheus gave us fire this is the kind of thing he hoped for, not the blood on our hands but the burn of the rockets bright as the light in our eyes. Surely he saw in us the willingness to be torn asunder again and again, to send our bodies out against the talons of the universe to come home, wrap our arms around each other and sing, rejoice! There is still no end of the world!

Guys, there is no shortage of mediocre white dudes out there. If your electoral politics require you to vote for some mediocre white dude, and one of them turns out to be awful, say a sex pest or a Nazi or some other kind of milkshake duck, you can just find you another one. There's no shortage.
okay so AI is absolutely cratering imminently and I need all of you to PROMISE me you won't take the high road, and will laugh and rub it in their faces as much as possible. I need you to laugh and go 'WE TOLD YOU SO, BITCH" at every opportunity, PLEASE be extremely mean and ruthless
The Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) has been gutted in Trump's proposed 2027 budget. It's not Groundhog Day. It's just happening again.
Here's what you need to know and what you can do to take action right now.

Nuremberg was an important symbol of German nationhood so I say with 100% sincerity that this is a job for Philadelphia
Trump lost this war in every possible sense — morally, legally, politically, economically, reputationally, and strategically.
😌
Get worse now!
Reactionary centrists and republicans spent years smearing, belittling, or dismissing anyone who properly described the Trumpism as a white supremacist project. bsky.app/profile/nbcn...
This brings me so much joy
No.
lol, lmao
Remarkable: The public has rejected *all* the major pillars of America First Trumpism. Majorities oppose:
*deportations
*tariffs
*war with Iran
*threats to Canada and Greenland
...while NATO, vaccines, and foreign aid remain broadly popular.
Some thoughts on that:

Trump posted this to Truth Social where he brazenly admits his puppet-master role over censorship & firing decisions at the FCC, CNN, CBS, Comcast & Disney, among others.
So much for Bari Weiss and David Ellison's claims to be independent, free press champions.
This is one of the things that genuinely keeps me up at night!
One thing I never understood about Les Miserables is how Javert managed to convince the higher ups at the police department to commit nearly unlimited time and money to the Bread Crimes Unit.

trump has numbed me to a lot of things but the lack of fucking respect will never stop galling me
The glibness. The indifference. The carelessness. The utter lack of planning for a war against a country of 90M. The sickness of a man who acts on whim that will kill thousands not hundreds. The horror of a regime that enables this sickness. The broken body politic that votes in such malignancy.
