Every accusation is a confession.
Trump: "The Radical Left Democrats are going CRAZY with Fake Polls. They’re putting them out at levels never seen before. They’re called, 'Demoralization Operations,' where they try to demoralize Republicans so that they don’t go out and vote — But the actual Polls are tremendous"

Aside from this being elitist and condescending, it feels misogynistic. Women primarily read smut, so this feels like a man finding yet another way to invalidate something that women enjoy and trying to put qualifiers on it that he finds acceptable. In short, loser behavior.

This is crazy-making. Like, makes you question reality. This AI account is a series of lies. Digital trash fiction, pretending to be real. It has never held a bowl or a lemon but spews overwrought MFA candidate prose about the beauty of each. It's disturbing. Bad tech wearing an art disguise.
Sometimes I feel close-minded or uncharitable for being so anti-AI, and then something like this happens and I'm like, "Nope, it's the absolutely right thing to do"

In my lifetime I don’t think anything has made me want to give up on this broken country like the mass shared delusion about something that happened just a few years ago. So many brains are just completely gone and they’re not coming back.
Tuberville: "I'll be the governor of Alabama and I promise you we will find out if there's a possibility that we can bring him to Alabama to put him in front of a court and a jury to see if we can put this guy in prison. He killed millions of people, folks."

The elected Dems too. "Oh, Mamdani candidates won a popular vote. Time to move to the center, it's obviously what the voters really want. This was just a cry for help. They don't actually want anyone to our left, that's scary and unamerican." Haven't done shit in 18 months, but now, they fight. 🙄
It’s not just the elected leaders. I think blue maga has more fire for fighting democratic socialism than they do for fighting the GOP

Err, so here's $300b for your troubles? Sorry about that whole mess. 'Specially The Bomb bit. Can't keep Granddad off the socials, no matter how Susie tries. Mind keeping the details entre nous? Having a spot of bother at home and we've already dropped a load of cash on this stuff. 'Preciate you!
O'DONNELL: Why not allow the world to see whatever this deal is you signed with Iran? JD VANCE: So, there is frankly some diplomatic protocols that I don't fully understand

Reporters don't talk enough about how Republicans do not consider Democratic voters to be fully American.
Rep. Sheri Biggs on South Carolina: "Right now, we have one congressman that's Democrat. I think a 7 and 0 map would definitely reflect our values. We should have only Americans voting in our elections."

The DNC has the names/emails/phone numbers of all their supporters, but they don't even send 1 informational pamphlet on countering GOP fascism, protecting immigrants during ICE raids, surviving a recession, helping people with disabilities during hard times, ways to counter wartime propaganda, etc.

Minor proposal: we should all start using the 'Trump's _______' naming convention to differentiate between properly run agencies and the ravaged post-Project2025 departments. Trump's EPA, TCDC, TCMS, TNPS, TDOI, TWIC, etc etc. He wants to be king? Make him own every bit of it.
A carcinogenic gas is used to sterilize medical equipment. After communities near these facilities fought for tougher regulation, Trump's EPA is rolling it back.

Huh. Turns out my mother's loudest mantra really does fit any situation — Love, work, geopolitical conflict, presidents, whatever. A man is NOT a plan.
Tho obvious, it's worth noting that a naval blockade is not an obvious solution to restoring the flow of oil out of the Persian Gulf. There may be a logic but not a straightforward one. They say hope is not a plan. No plan is also not a plan. Improvising as you go has uncertain and chaotic results.

How many other ways does this need to be said? Not getting to be governor isn't criminal punishment. Reasonable people have decided (as they should!) to believe women. His cascade of boohoo consequences stems from his alleged behavior. Not folks getting access to and responding to ALL the info.
a criminal conviction isn’t required to say someone does not have the moral character to run for office and i don’t understand why this needs to be said over and over and over again.
Same. Don't know him. Been totally fine NOT knowing. Been able to escape the endless related discourse without checking his Wikipedia once. So why start today? It's Friday, it's spring, and the world is going to hell. Let's not stress shotgun his entire bio in one hit NOW.
Please don't make me learn who Hasan Piker is.

I can get, haha, kind of unhinged about this. But "centrism" is as blind an ideology as any party membership can be. Fetishizing "neither left nor right" means you look past what might be genuinely good solutions just because they're associated with one or the other. This is pundit brain shit.
