Obecna kampania rządowa mająca uzasadnić poparcie dla ochrony interesów kasty posiadaczy z AirBnB jest tak niesamowicie żenująca, że zaczyna konkurować ze słynnymi oświadczeniami lekarzy. Polska potrzebuje kadencji rządów jakiejś populistycznej lewicy na zaraz, żeby to towarzystwo otrzeźwić.

Czytam wyłaniający się obraz kasty lekarzy w Polsce i jestem przerażony. Jestem programistą, przedstawicielem grupy, która tradycyjnie ma bardzo wysokie zarobki. I słyszę lekarzy, którzy mówią, że CZTERDZIEŚCI DWA TYSIĄCE BRUTTO MIESIĘCZNIE to nie jest *godna pensja*.

I know it's not very probable, but having Farage get his political career ended by losing to Count Binface would restore a little bit of my faith in the world.

The Russian milbloggers complained a few days ago that "if this goes on, Ukraine will try to hit the Omsk refinery". Well, as master Yoda said, do or don't do, there is no try ;)

No i co, niedowiarki? Pani Iga spokojnie zrobiła to, co chciała. Pograła sobie trzy sety dla rozgrzewki, poćwiczyła serwis, a na końcu pewnie wygrała ostatniego seta, kończąc asem. A hejterom na pohybel.

For a SCOTUS reportedly fighting "judicial overreach", they sure have some revolutionary decisions (Dobbs, Slaughter). One might think that looking at what Trump's cronies are doing ATM would make any sane constitutionalist want to *strengthen* the restrictions on the executive, but alas...

There's no sugar-coating Slaughter. It's an enormously important ruling (far more important than the other three decisions #SCOTUS handed down today). It's a huge win for Trump/the executive. And it's going to have massive ramifications for the functioning of the government long after Trump is gone.

The benefits of not being a climate change denier - me when renovating our flat a few years ago: "we're gonna need AC because with the global warming the summer temperatures are going to get terrible". A lot of people at the time were saying "why get AC, it's a waste of money in our climate".

I'm hearing the Gamergate boys have reached a point where Milly Alcock is considered ugly, unattractive and "trans-suspect". I really believe that the right wing "cultural counterrevolution", fueled by insane funding, is reaching the points of absurdity, but it's hard to stop anymore.

Widzę, że Naczelna Izba Lekarska postanowiła rzucić Tuskowi takie wielkie koło ratunkowe. I nawet nie musiał robić w TVP materiałów o lekarzach jedzących krewetki.

I would love for some journalist to ask Pope Leo what he would say to SCOTUS members that profess to be Catholics, yet enable completely arbitrary deportation of people who fled for their lives and legally applied for asylum, then did nothing wrong.
