People could just say "She was far from ideal, but she was a damned sight far better option than Mango Mussolini"
Time for the annual IWD post:
It's the 19th of November. You didn't know? Maybe that's because you put absolutely zero effort into it, champ. Now, run along...
Today is six weeks since Trump said we would have details of the Greenland deal in two weeks.
After more than 20 years since my last uni course, I'm back doing a postgrad in disability and inclusion. Daunting but exciting!
I saw a post on Instagram about how successful men have been over many decades at convincing women that looking weak and frail is attractive because women with weight and muscle are too intimidating, and theyβve done such a good job that women have internalized it and even shame each other about it.
This murderous fk doesn't speak for me.
thinking about the players and staff of Iranβs womenβs national team who woke up in Australia today to the news that their homeland had been bombed. how anyone can focus on sport in the midst of these horrors is beyond me. they play their first game tomorrow.
It's almost like that FIFA peace prize was a total wank.
Is the president mocking the U.S. womenβs hockey team on a celebratory call with the menβs team going to attract even an iota of the sustained handwringing that the idea of trans athletes disadvantaging womenβs sports has gotten

A Bit Fruity did a great deep dive on her, she's never been a feminist.
turns out if you staff your org with people willing to believe that there's a worldwide satanic cabal controlling the world they're going to believe other crazy shit too
It'd be a shame if he ended up fatally ill from a salmonella hamburder...
So it dropped from 3 tickets to 1?
Being Australian I couldn't care less about the Superbowl and had no idea who Bad Bunny is before magats lost their excrement. He's got my support for that alone.
The Australian coverage had both booing incidents.
Jacob Coote: Two things happened to me yesterday. The first was, I received all this shit about voting for the first time, which I chucked in the bin, 'cos I reckon all politicians are a bunch of dickheads. And the other thing was, my old man was watching a documentary about insects rooting on fig leaves, so I caught the end of the world news. And I saw this guy who was being chased by his own government, and I didn't understand anything about it except that he was wearing a Nick Cave T-shirt. And then I wondered how a guy my age, with my taste in music, had gotten himself into a situation where his own government was trying to have him shot, just because he had something to say. And I realised I'm lucky because in this country, I can rant and rave and call the Prime Minister a dickhead without the Army coming in and shooting me, and stopping you all from listening. And I figured that in this country, we don't vote to keep the best party in--'cos there's no such thing--but we vote to keep the worst party out. Because I don't want to end up being watched by some bloke at the other end of the world who thinks that this can't happen to him.

This quote from Looking for Alibrandi seems prescient now more than ever.
this:
Too many people didn't vote. Quoting the Australian novel Looking for Alibrandi:
"...and I figured that in this country, we don't vote to keep the best party inβcos there's no such thingβbut we vote to keep the worst party out..."
The full quote is eerily apt for the situation in the US right now.
NBC editing out the booing of JD Vance is a disgrace. Itβs an international event. Americans have the right to know what the world is saying. NBC has bowed down to Trump.
