Life is a complicated process of turning low entropy into memes and high entropy.

Chicago cops think Richard Kimball killed one of them but for the entire right wing
i'm a fucking american and i'm not going to be ordered by the fucking government to love a man who hated me, and whom i hated in turn.
Sure, but Kahwi's side gig ain't got nothing on what Roberts was able to pull
Every Democratic president is hated alike; every Republican president is hated in his own way.
Hey, they got to beat the libs [Athenians] in a war, so I was satisfied and stopped reading. I assume it was harmonious prosperity from there on out.
Speak for yourself--I hunt with grapeshot.
Fair. Throw in an exception for guns that need a ramrod.
Yeah, just like a bright line where you need something other than a trigger pull to chamber the next round.
Bolt, break-open, and single action only!
Went to the state capitol and thought, "I sure hope I won't have to say that I can remember how the flowers smelled at the beginning of our years of lead"

Coming more around to a theory I’ve had for a while that the rural, broadly, need to Search Their Feelings in that they know, down deep, that it sucks. Why can’t urban people criticize rural people? Bc it’s interpreted as punching down. Why is it punching down, exactly? We know why. They know why.
I think it's just the conservative view of racism, which consists mostly of slurs by a good-hearted powerless guy and can be solved completely on the individual level.
And that jackass is from For[r]est Lake, Minnesota.
Jackass is from Minnesota. Sure, For[r]est Lake, but still Minnesota.
That wouldn't be too bad. They'd get to win a ring in 4 years and go to the playoffs about half the time.
Like it's not an industry super susceptible to consolidation. It's labor intensive with a million independent contractors and financed through the market. Not a ton of barriers to entry!
And they'll cry like they did with Bork while pretending the Saturday night massacre (and all of his published writing) didn't happen, and hopefully Dem electeds finally won't care
Poastocracy
It's been clear it should be a state function for a long time
I'd love it for the same reason it'd never happen--a president Vance would get eaten alive. No amount of propaganda can make people like someone like him.
Ooh, could be a SW take on Phantom Doctrine
They would have needed to make huge leaps in metallurgy, precision tooling, and a bunch of other things to be able to create machines capable of handling the pressures involved in the most basic steam engines.
Unironically they should buy up the domains for about 60 defunct local newspapers in swing states. Hire two reporters to write almost exclusively about highschool sports and new restaurants opening with every 10th article about how the local GOP is screwing over people.
Landlords have caused the student loan crisis and skyrocketed medical costs!
He got to the DMV just after the guy who got JFK-1487
Fairly ironic that this court has championed the judge-as-historian model
Because they had the house for 6/8 of those years.
I don't think the minority party can hold hearings or subpoena people
Yeah they should do more, but calling for federal charges with a Republican DoJ isn't really useful.
Because he'd be calling on Pam Bondi to bring charges. It'd be the emptiest of gestures.
New version of a shotgun wedding just dropped
Please leave me and my 3 bookmarks alone
I watch the whole thing from the band warming up. Makes me want to run through a brick wall to punch a Nazi
Lol, throughout the game we show you that society has mastered directed thrust, but here's one of the most advanced factions with a bunch of F16s.
Video games and unleaded gas
Isn't that just Twitter?
One could argue that a lot of the ugly shit that's come since the 80s has been downstream of the **absolutely necessary** dismantling of the racial shit tying the new deal coalition together.
Lol the conference committee for this one would be an absolute shitshow
If it makes you feel any better, I believe my own similar Bad Brain tendencies are what has helped save me from dogmatism. Can't be the inflexible crusader for justice if you're not always sure you're a good person.
Dark urge: Col. Kurtz
He was already one of the best and the brightest in the LBJ admin
Of course it's Intuit. Wouldn't be surprised if they were paying boomers to go to planning meetings at this point.
And after that, Fairbanks, Alaska
Socialism would be so much easier/more fun if you didn't have to appeal to normal people.
They also never seem to be able to identify who would have done better with a more open primary.
There's never an answer to that second question, though often it's a silent "2016 Bernie"
Reactionary mass appeal always has a seething rendition of "friends in low places" playing in its heart, so they love the gauche because they identify themselves in opposition to people who use the term "gauche"
Perfect mix of your favorite professor and lib Cincinnatus
Possibly the [normative] best character in sci fi!
Eagerly awaiting Star Wars XCOM
It's anti-sexy murder poet art. Conservative in a sense that includes many/most definitions of "liberal"
Any idea why our CBs rank so low? Could it be because they range out more, or are they actually bad?
Hey, when you're taking over Europe, ending the world's biggest republic, and killing a meaningful percentage of the Gauls, it really matters *how.*
A group of sexy friends take acid in a taxi to the western front
That plus it being the first post 9/11 presidential election, and he still almost lost to Sam Eagle.
It's an even dumber version of how Bush II's slide stopped for a couple of months enough to get him reelected and then resumed dropping the rest of the way
He wrote the 4th circuit opinion that was affirmed in Hamdi v. Rumsfeld. I think he needs to show a different kind of introspection right now.
Sometimes life is overwhelming and you need a nap and for your no-nonsense space Nazi gf to take over for a bit
Lol General Veers vs Admiral Ozzel in a tense standoff over military policy a la WWII Japan
Happy Appomattox Day to all who celebrate and I expect each and every one of you to celebrate.
no trans woman ever took my nintendo
Lined with lead!
That doesn't preclude a Roman republic/post-Alexander Greece style system of "allied" planets that are at various levels of integration into the central state
This is returning Charles I's head to his shoulders
The world if liberals run rampant (derogatory)
"If you impose these tariffs an industrialized country will be brought to its knees"
Who themselves are wiped out by a king who could only be stopped by his jilted ex boyfriend
Don't go. The drones need you.
Presumably a decently run socialist economy would require quite a bit of cold, impersonal, universal rules too though.
If it's "less" then it should be "has" because you are talking about "years" in the sense of a flow/block of time, not individual years. If it's "fewer" then it's "have."
He's also effectively right in that even if this were more of a real problem, it'd be impossible to stop.
Which makes all of this downstream of the American system completely breaking with ideologically coherent and disciplined parties. Too many veto points that, if used as they have been for decades, allow the toxins to build up.
*reading history book* All we need to do is disenfranchise the most reactionary states for a couple of decades and maybe in a century we'll see some real progress!
"how ya doing?" "Oh, you know..." "Oh geez, that bad?"
I'm looking for the metrics that look clearly worse than they were pre pandemic
It doesn't help that some people's definition of capitalism is so broad that it includes just the concept of scarce resources. I too hate having to work to be comfortable, but that's not just capitalism.
Haven't the gays been through enough?
"The American Constitution. One of God's own prototypes. A high-powered mutant of some kind never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die."
Remembering tales from Vichy:
An all-lawyer metal band
This is gonna sound… idk, I’m just gonna say it A way I find helpful to have courage is to enjoy danger as much as you can If you think the current political situation is dangerous, which, like, it is? Instead of dooming, act like you’re… idk, skydiving. Doing MMA w/minimal armor. Idk.
And for basically nothing! That is less than 0.1% of the budget.
Which is more of a "the American system cannot handle fully ideologically polarized parties" problem.
No one is arguing that he is left wing. He is nonetheless the most progressive president in generations.
Clinton signed the worst thing to happen to the welfare state since the new deal, and Biden oversaw its biggest expansion since the great society. Not to mention every social issue imaginable, crime, environmental regulations, antitrust, etc etc etc.
we had a good economy and so many people hated it, and i will die mad about it.
