That woo woo shit ain't cheap, and the ideological MAHA Mommies we're supposed to be playing nice with to try to shave off a few swing-voter cranks are not using folk remedies because they can't afford meds, they're letting their kids die of infections because they think they're above it all.

Yes, stupid immoral assholes have done far too well for basically forever, but right now, it feels like being a stupid immoral asshole has become the ONLY way to do well. That is a problem.

Trump 2 has shown that the bulk of federal, state, and local "law enforcement" don't perform any useful functions at all. If they did, it would not be so easy to re-task them to brainless gestapo work like rounding up whole neighborhoods and waiting outside public buildings.

I wrote about how immigration arrests are at all-time highs, even as ICE is trying to assume a lower public profile. How are they doing this? Look to your local police.

as a straight dude I agree too. it's evidence of a weak will and/or poor attachment to good values, and we've all got LGBT friends or family. more practically I've seen way too many people go batshit fucking crazy down the transphobia waterslide

Squishiness on trans rights is a dealbreaker for me because (a) it’s a straightforward issue of personal freedom and bodily autonomy much like abortion, and (b) the right is obviously coming after us cis gays next.

The bad faith of the anti-trans sports lobby is so transparent that it can be dismantled instantly by asking them about Title IX funding disparities for women's sports. 99% of them readily admit they don't care, the remaining 1% say they care but don't think anything should be done about it.

there is no good faith anti-trans sports lobby and never has been it’s been a cynical wedge issue from day one for a group of people looking to replace gay marriage as a cultural weapon none of them have ever cared about women, women’s sports, or even sports

Jared Leto! now on his third round of public sexual assault allegations! oh, but he gets asses in seats for big-budget movies, so— {checks recent box office stats} um! well, he’s an outstanding actor {checks reviews} he’s beloved by his colleagues and easy to work with? {checks interviews} 🫨

please stop suggesting I solve my problem by changing my behavior. I do not want to do that
