Never met Tony Peters, don’t know who he is, but a million years ago on Facebook he posted this and I don’t think anyone’s ever put it better.

This is literally true
The Senate passed the Voting Rights Act renewal in 2006 by a vote of 98-0.
The Supreme Court majority gutted it on the grounds that the Justices personally dislike the impact.

this is like how Aubrey and Maturin met
At the Friday morning orchestra concert I just sat next to a guy who waited out a *forty-six-minute* piece of music in order to raucously boo it at the end. Incredible degree of commitment to being a hater

it's so crazy that we funneled billions in environmental subsidies to Tesla, only for it to become one of the most rampantly polluting companies in business today
Meanwhile, Tesla's new lithium refinery in Corpus Christi just got a cease and desist letter for dumping toxic waste into the sewer system.

Testing finds toxic metals where Tesla discharges wastewater
The drainage district that commissioned the testing has sent a cease-and-desist letter to the company, which says it is in compliance with all requirements for its state wastewater discharge permit.

It’s profoundly ignorant to suggest that the Pope should be fighting crime on behalf of the Catholic Church. Anyone who was remotely familiar with Roman Catholicism would know that that’s what Daredevil is for

Fun fact, most catholics get yelled at by the pope exactly zero times in their whole lives but Censures Georg here has managed it like five times in six years
Vice President JD Vance has a new book that will explore his religious faith and his conversion to Catholicism as an adult. “Communion: Finding My Way Back to Faith” will be out June 16.

I dunno I think neoliberalism’s grand plan of dismantling the welfare state and the social contract and replacing them, respectively, with nothing and nothing created a pretty fertile breeding ground for fascism and this isn’t even particularly controversial anymore.

so much cultural and political effort gone towards making a project of pacifism and an end to war seem like a soft, prosaic concern of comfortable people rather than an essential part of the project of justice and human flourishing

Me, watching as children's motrin magically lowers Littler Girl's fever from 104.x down to 100.x, easing her very obvious discomfort and allowing her to get the sleep she desperately needs:
"I don't think this is doing anything and maybe it's dangerous. Probably better for her to burn up?"

JD Vance calls ibuprofen "useless medication" and implies it's not "necessary, safe and effective."
