The implicit media consensus is that urban voters should not be able to overrule rural voters, but that rural voters should be able to overrule urban voters, an assumption so axiomatic and unquestionable that nobody even understands they're making it.
NEW — Virginia voters have approved a 10–1 congressional map, putting Democrats in a strong position to flip four seats from red to blue. The new map is now among the most aggressive gerrymanders in the country.
I’ll never live in Fairfax county again, but this is so hilarious. You think these are insults?! You think the people living there are going to be INSULTED you called them bossy elitists?! Please understand your enemy 1% (but also don’t and SEETHE)
Cry about it :)
"should we really resort to playing dirty to defeat the nazis i–"
yes. kick em in the fucking balls. what kind of question is that. grow the fuck up
when people show up and vote the bastards eat shit.
Does this person know you can buy the really great sunglasses without the pervert cam? Because….you could get the underlying useful product without destroying society you know!
A fun thing about being fat is explaining to new medical staff “no I mean HYPOtensive,” “no it’s bad for me if this med lowers my BP, I’ve been hospitalized for passing out,” “please read my chart again”
Because this doesn’t match the assumption when they look at me!

We have a name for this, I just can’t quite put my finger on it. Oh well!
I had forgotten about this until right this moment, WOW.
one of many reasons i will never accept abandoning my trans siblings or the broader queer community for the purposes of "a bigger tent"
Before I became an American, I was Lebanese. Parts of my family live in Lebanon.
Anyway, you don't need those bona fides to feel this way, but what is happening in Lebanon right now is a complete outrage. The people there, who mostly are just trying to carve out a living, don't deserve this.
Yeah I mean even if he doesn’t literally start a nuclear war and end civilization idk how you come back from this in terms of being a credible actor in international relations. You’re somehow both an existential threat to humanity and a fundamentally unserious country.
yeah man i'll circle back to you on that agenda item from yesterday's all hands in just a sec. our pedophile king just threatened to destroy a whole civilization
I have nothing to say that matches the gravity of the situation. I just want peace and safety for everyone targeted by the insane whims of a madman.
I loved Portland, Maine. And was there the last weekend of January, so can’t wait to go back in better weather!
Say what you will about him but he made it all very plain.
You can't convince me they didn't do this on purpose, today specifically. Pack the court
This is also why it is so enraging to see Democrats go along with “fairness in sports” policies that are about policing women’s bodies and ultimately abusing us. How stupid people are to believe that it is really about benefitting women. Why would Trump and his crowd do anything to benefit women?
They want to police our genitalia and run tests on our bodies to “prove” we are women, at which point they will still deny it. This is why the only feminism is trans-inclusive and why transphobia and anti-trans discrimination should be a top political priority.
JK Rowling is calling women athletes men even after they pass genetic testing. People in her replies are talking about these women having “ambiguous” genitalia. We are in an extremely frightening moment for ALL women thanks to transphobia.
You do not, in any way, "gotta hand it to" Tucker Carlson.
Tucker Carlson does not have any moral opposition to apartheid or occupation. He'd love to have it in the US.
A classic for a reason!
This is gorgeous as is the lip color (pls share the product!)
I also appreciate none of the photos shared show anyone’s face. Humanizing without humiliating any individual person, a level of care being shown

Mayor Mamdani shakes hands with a person in custody across a dining table where other people in custody eat together.
Earlier this week, I had the honor of breaking fast at Rikers Island with New Yorkers in custody. It was a night that will stay with me for quite some time.
In a system too often defined by what it takes, I was reminded of what it means to give—mercy, dignity, and humanity.
Eid Mubarak, New York.
“I work for a living and am not seeing any positives out of voting Republican.”
Wow that’s crazy dude. Anyway, congrats on waking up from your coma.
My neighbor told me Philadelphians keep dogpiling his outdoor robots so I asked how many robots he has and he said he just goes to the factory and gets a new robot afterwards so I said it sounds like he’s just feeding robots to Philadelphians and then his accountant started crying
The Afroman case is so emblematic of the farcical degeneracy of the criminal and civil justice systems.
