@perrybaconjr.bsky.social So glad you had @edburmila.bsky.social on. You recommended Chaotic Neutral in one of your columns years ago and it was excellent. Ed also penned my favorite tweet of all time:

@jonathan-a-thon.bsky.social You’re like the first commentator I’ve heard say that it isn’t the worst situation for that seat to be occupied by a brain dead McConnell. Doing so puts the Senate at 52-47 taking JD Vance off the board completely.

off the top of my head, moral responsibility for trump, in descending order: 1- trump and his inner circle 2- SCOTUS 3- GOP-affiliated elites 4- biden DOJ 5- intelligentsia/media types who misled the public about the threat he posed and the tools available to stop him 6- elected dems 7- voters
This man is talking about stealing a country at gunpoint from nations the US is allied with. Of course Europeans hate us. You would feel the same way if you were in their place. American voters put this man in power, he didn’t seize it this time.

I dunno if BlueSky engagement is getting more sustainable or not, but if mentioning those two things will get the numbers jumping for my show(s) I'm willing to ask because *I* could certainly use both 👍 youtube.com/playlist?lis...

the way to tell whether a person is credible is by *listening to what they say* and checking it against verifiable facts. The idea that you can bypass this with some value-neutral procedure is asinine if you think about it for two seconds and also the guiding ideology of 99% of American elites.

actual numbers suggest that this narrative of systematic discrimination against white millennial men is bullshit.
@danielobrien.bsky.social I just watched the Last Week Tonight segment on Felony Murder and my first thought is that under a strict reading of that doctrine, every singler J6er is guilty of it.

ryan is right. people HATE hearing this. but it is just a matter of simple incentives. if you want a more representative legislature — and if you want a legislature more resistant to corruption — then you need to jack up the salaries. serving as mayor of NYC should net you a cool 500K *at least*
people hate hearing this but it's 100% true, creating a huge pay gap between political leaders, their staffs, and other elites is a recipe for corruption. of course the flip side of that is taxes on the rich should be jacked way the hell up

@jonathan-a-thon.bsky.social Say what you will about woke Ghostbusters 2016 but I laughed my ass during the scene where Hemsworth described his cat.
@jonathan-a-thon.bsky.social Their plan is going to involve a highly textual reading of the 22nd Amendment - which says no one may be ELECTED president more than twice but says nothing about ASSUMING the presidency from somewhere else in the line of succession.
I think the reason this resonated so much is because food delivery apps are the primary way American youth feeds itself.
boy is that true. in 2022-3, burrito taxis going up got about ten thousand times more attention online than the fact that it was the best labor market for low income workers in like 60 years

the thing everyone is going to have to accept is that the post-trump period, whenever it comes, will not and cannot be a project of national unity, it must be a project of partisan project of renewal, in the same way that reconstruction and the new deal were partisan projects of renewal.
