Rory and Vance reaching heretofore unknown levels of epic collapse this week.

In fact, we have evidence of the opposite. Library funding levies, public school levies, etc regularly pass with strong public support.

Paris may be worth a mass, but not entering into strategic voting coalitions, apparently

@neorsd.org but make it ancient Roman.

So many examples of @patrickwyman.bsky.social's dumb guy theory of history in the wild today

How much violin playing with the boys is there though?

This is going to be really problematic for future high school history teachers who will have to teach it. "Look, kids, you can only say FAFO in school when referring to early 21st century American foreign policy."

Didn't know it was possible to look that much like the senator who turns into water in the first X-Men movie in real life.

Yeah, but an uncrushable doused in vinegar is inedible and that's the only proper way to eat a pasty.

Reading this from urgent care hoping to get some strong antibiotics for the combo sinus infection/conjunctivitis passed on from either the 6 y.o. or the 18 month old.

Two tough Ls for Washington this week.

Coffee: the cause of, and solution to, all of life's (after 30) problems

Also, we live in the now, and have the benefit of hindsight. What's the point of doing historical analysis if we cannot do so with our contemporary understanding of future events/broader context.

So you're saying there's a chance?

Still the central division champs.

Man, that's a lot of butt dials. Even for Tom.

UK9 has to be in the conversation as well.

The Roberts Court at this point is basically what if the Lochner Court had the racial views of the Dred Scott Court, but also Article I doesn't exist.

Same energy as me explaining to @lizabreed.bsky.social why she has to wake up and help change the baby's diaper when she has a "massive blowout" at 3:00 am

Given that this guy has a giant painting of the Nazi battleship Bismarck behind his desk, this one doesn't feel like an "oops."

It took 20 years but 9/11 and our response to it succeeded in breaking the country.

I assume "a local busybody" was struck in the edit.

Hell yeah! I hope our society doesn't collapse before I can read it.

This is also an apt description of Bill Clinton or George W. Bush. I think too many people who came into politics during the Obama era forget that this is basically what politicians are--and it may actually be a benefit if the goal is to win elections.

Hope there are still some NPS park rangers down there for when these guys inevitably get heat exhaustion.

Man, living through the "eff around and find out" phase of a future season of the Revolutions podcast sucks.

Look, no one has been targeting the incel community with a mommy vlog This is just efficiently exploiting a gap in the market.

We used to be a proper country where real men had secretaries to handle all communication with their wives. Look what they've taken from us, lol.

I don't think most millennials are ready for how badly cooked their boomer family members who still use Facebook are about to be with the oncoming avalanche of AI slop that's going to hit them.

Honestly, Ryan Day actually being AI generated from birth makes a ton of sense.
