“I don’t have time” = my doctors gave me a year to live

And Nixon people (especially Ailes and Stone) are big parts of this mess now!

Thank you for making this connection. It’s maddening how much this regime is like an aggressively stupid version of Bush II, and wouldn’t be possible if those people hadn’t gotten away with it.

In the end I think she was probably screwed no matter what she did. But either way, saying she told us so doesn’t do anything for anyone; the question the party might ask itself is “When we knew how bad things might get, why didn’t we get through to more people?”

It’s also really weird rhetorically! She basically says, “I predicted Trump would be bad, but I didn’t predict we’d lose Jesse Jackson.” … He was in his 80s and in failing health. Surely there was a better way to say this.

Possums would have better reading comprehension than what you are displaying here.

Democrats love chastising their voters when they lose. I guess it’s why we hear “this is your fault because you didn’t vote against Trump” all day even when we did. Do Republicans ever, ever talk to their base this way?

You can't understand so much media coverage of trans people (and of any youth political activism) without this—and it's based on absolutely nothing but vibes!

"Working class" has been a very vague term for a very long time, but we've hit a stage where it's a self-chosen label for any white man who is openly racist and/or has a beard and some muscles, which is inevitably going to lead people to some completely stupid conclusions.

BlueSky: the app where I learn so much about gender

Worrying about everything is a fundamental part of parenting small children, and then you add onto that the hostility of the medical system—it's hard to get a doctor, then can be hard to get them to pay attention—and the lack of resources and safety net, and it's not hard to see why quacks thrive.

Thank you, my mind went to this immediately. Also "Cannonball Adderall" is terrific.

Right. And of course only minorities/people on the left are asked to do this kind of thing.

From the people who brought you "pro-choice Democrats need to accept anti-abortion people in the party" and "trans Democrats need to accept anti-trans people into the party" comes "BIPOC Democrats need to accept guys who signed up to kill BIPOC into the party."

a man in a suit and tie stands in front of a crowd of people and says there are dozens of us Alt: A gif from "Arrested Development." Tobias (David Cross), a bald man with glasses and a mustache, is wearing a suit and tie and speaking emphatically to a crowd. He's shouting "There are dozens of us. Dozens!" (In the show, he is raising awareness of being a "never nude," meaning he never fully removes his clothes.)

Maybe he's a nevernude?

Remember when the Beltway Press was fascinated with signs of Biden’s health being in decline and outraged that the White House wasn’t telling the public what was going on?

Me neither.

HACHI, and furthermore, MACHI!

My money is on scrofula.

Any time you wind up looking like this, you have overwhelmingly succeeded.

I encourage everyone to enjoy it to the utmost when bad things happen to bad people.

Imagine for a moment what the tabloids and major media would be doing if major crimes were up 2% in Mamdani's first two months.

Imagine becoming an adult and never hearing about the concept of "one of the good ones." Or Thomas Jefferson, or the many, many bigoted people over the generations who had relationships with (or just USED the bodies of) people they were bigoted against.

Here’s the thing: unless Democrats commit to undoing and banning these kinds of practices, and punishing the people responsible, they’re just kicking the fascism can down the road.
