The media's takeaway from an El-Sayed win is the same as it would have been from a Stevens win, and the same as it will be if El-Sayed wins the general, or if he loses it: everyone, no matter who they are, needs to take several steps to the right.

There is a lot to say about the Nolan Odyssey movie. But one point that I think has not been emphasized enough is: this is a film about living in LA, as Nolan, my erstwhile British compatriot and age mate, has done for years. I gather it’s a strange place.

They're being forced to because the US is literally about to run out of oil after depleting the emergency reserves. If they don't massively increase the global supply right now, entire regions of the world are going to start shutting down in a few weeks and it'll be chaos.
Am I reading this right? Did we just lift all sanctions on Iranian oil?

This is a window into the sense of grievance these goblins have that lead to Trump. Obama "broke the deal" by addressing the Trayvon Martin shooting with any racial consciousness. Since Obama "duped" them by pretending to be a post-racial figure, they're entitled to revert to gutter racism.

this is worth watching in full just to understand who is in charge of the DNC right now. just an archetypal evasive, lying politician with zero respect for his audience.

Well, while the Supreme Court dismantles human rights and the pedophile billionaires dismantle society, Democrats like Josh Gottheimer focus on what's really important: screaming and stamping their feet over Israel's own psychotic behavior making Zionism unpopular.
👀 SCOOP: Reps. Josh Gottheimer and Mike Lawler are introducing a bipartisan House resolution condemning Hasan Piker and Candace Owens for spreading antisemitism.

In case it’s not clear that white supremacy is a child rape cult, teen pregnancy dropping is “a problem”
Fox News doc on lower fertility rate: "The problem is teens and young adults, from ages 15-19 the fertility rate is down 7%, and it's down 70% over the last two decades, meaning we're telling people that are young not have babies, to wait until they're in a more stable life situation"

I would say that one of the big downsides of living the good life, that philosophers don't often talk about, is that it really dampens your ability to whine.

Whining and complaining, which is one of the greatest joys of human existence, is tragically robbed from us almost entirely.

Every year the Oscars proves the inherent foolishness of subjectively ranking works of art. What they should do instead is give the awards to whichever movie made the most money

People have had moral panics about children’s media habits since the dawn of media. All of these moral panics were for nothing. There is no evidence that overwhelmingly shows social media is inherently bad for children.

You are being lied to by people who want to control you. Stop doing their work.

Voting NO on the DHS funding bill is the bare minimum.

Backing Kristi Noem’s impeachment is the bare minimum.

Holding law-breaking ICE agents legally accountable is the bare minimum.

ICE is beyond reform. Abolish it.

the biggest concern everyone has right now is that democrats will rally around a set of weak reforms. but another thing to watch is them abolishing ICE in name only - shuffling the agency around and renaming it while keeping the personnel and culture in place.

Irrefutable proof that no matter how moderate you are, Republicans are going to call you a communist. No sense running away from popular positions to avoid this smear because it’s inevitable

The US Holocaust Museum being more outraged by Tim Walz saying that, like Anne Frank, children today are in hiding from armed agents of the state, than they are about the fact that children are in hiding from armed agents of the state, is why Holocaust remembrance culture is in crisis.
