Portland Trail Blazers basketball, and other things "Daft Punk was intended to be heard on vinyl"

Better Call Saul is more easy-going than Breaking Bad, because BB is a story about how Walt is evil and in BCS we already know Jimmy is just... flawed. It's a much lower stress rewatch.

the idea that burly trans women might harm our delicate cis women or whatever is a direct fucking echo of the case for segregated athletics and ngl it concerns me how many cis people can't see that from the start bsky.app/profile/lith...

The analogy I go with is that nobody is stoking a panic over Dutch people in basketball despite them having a clear physiological advantage (taller on average)

There’s such an easy answer to this “gotcha” question and it’s “Sports are inherently unsafe and unfair and it’s ridiculous to single out trans athletes when we allow 150 pound linebackers to go up against 260 pound linemen in freshman football on a daily basis. Let kids play with their friends.”

Talarico: "I oppose trans athletes playing in girls' sports if it endangers safety or fairness"

The Supreme Court blocked the student loan forgiveness despite there being explicit statutory authority for Biden to do it and allowed the Iran War despite an explicit Constitutional prohibition on anyone besides Congress declaring a war.

It gets worse when you remember that the Strait of Hormuz was open before the war started. So we’re spending $40B and people are dying on both sides to return to the status quo from January. Everything is socialism unless it’s money for killing people in pointless forever wars.

If someone aborted a fetus with microcephaly, MAHA would want them prosecuted for murder. But if they are exposed to measles and die, that's fine! They weren't going to live anyway. Incoherent grifting liars. All of them.
