"The past two years are all the proof you need that sitting out an election because the better candidate happens to not be perfectly to your liking is completely stupid and self-destructive."

The Question I Keep Getting About the Election

And it has a very simple answer.

AUSA Piropato: Not that I am aware of. Judge Reyes: Mr. Bardwell, what would you like? Bardwell: We'd like to amend... There is a proposed amended complaint. Judge: Let's assume we're operating under it. Bardwell: We'd like the TRO signed, and we'll move for a PI

This also describes most of my last year at my former firm. I could see how all the associates and junior partners were screwing up (because the senior partners had not taught the associates and jr. partners client, and business management), and had no ability to do anything about it. In fact I...

About 10 years ago my endocrinologist told me I bear the burden of knowledge. She was explaining to me why anxiety was likely to be a lifelong issue for me. I'm a pretty smart person, and understand how fucked up everything is (it was less obvious 10 years ago), but can't do anything about it.

Okay, but if I google it, I'm pretty sure I'll find that there are sociology professors who focus on apologies.

Good one @thebeaverton.com! "Apology experts say that would be an impossibility at this point, due to the fact that Donald Trump is now the only person, place, or thing on this planet that Canadians do not and will never feel the urge to apologize to." Sorry, never sorry eh! 🇨🇦🤣

I did not know 15 Liberals in total broke ranks to vote to stop arms shipments to Israel. Not a peep in the media about that fact. Anyone else?

What's amazing is the number of people replying and QPing that don't understand that this is what Pike did after torturing her victim, and was caught after she started showing off a piece of her victim's skull that she decided to keep.

The Keynote Speaker at the Annual National Catholic Prayer Breakfast in March, folks.

Some folks on the left are really showing their asses over the past 24 hours with their antisemitism and now threatening to split away from the movement over Mayor Mamdani's efforts to combat antisemitism. Okay, then fucking leave. Music to my ears. We don't want you. Bye.

The Biden dementia theory has been conclusively disproven, as has the theory that he didn’t use leverage to force Israel to accept a ceasefire (which they did multiple times). No one will ever admit they got these things wrong.

[SENATOR ERIC SCHMITT]: So you’re telling me under oath that you’ve never spoken with an Attorney General nominee? [JACK SMITH]: No, I don’t think— [SCHMITT]: WELL THEN *unveils poster* please explain this picture of you with Matt Gaetz! [SMITH]: That is Media Matters senior fellow Matt Gertz

what's that? you're telling me that Republicans had to get to do their swing at trans rights and then Democrats would have rhetorical grounding to push back? you're telling me that people triangulating were always playing the long game just like with SSM? I'm hearing this for the first time

Call self-described ‘LGB activists’ what they actually are: anti-LGBTQIA+

Track 2 (MAID for people whose death is not reasonably foreseeable) was established because two different courts found that the criterion of a reasonably foreseeable death violated the Charter. It can't be rescinded without using s.33.

YOU are Canada's National Shame asshole! 👇 Garnett Genuis - #cdnpoli "Canada's National Shame Canada's so-called "Medical Assistance in Dying" is out of control, with horrific abuses that are often only covered by international media and independent bloggers."

Gender Critical TERFs demand to speak for all cis LGB people whether we consent or not. Yet despite claiming to be the true pro-cis LGB group, they curiously never acknowledge how their anti-trans rhetoric is basically indistinguishable from anti-gay rhetoric. Cofounder of "LGB" Alliance btw

there are only three narratives in fiction: 1) the hero's journey 2) a stranger comes to town 3) a greedy developer is going to tear down our beloved community center...UNLESS we put on the greatest breakdance show this town's ever seen

Watching my Puppers play with a puppy and it's like watching two bottoms fuck.

I mean "numerically smaller faction than centrists/liberals that can still make a difference in close/competitive race" would square this circle pretty easily, no? like "you get a seat at the table and we'll compromise with you on policy as much as we will any other faction" would seem fair!

What's truly sad is that 1,600 people think discrimination is just great.

Dr.: any family history of autoimmune disorders? Mom: no. Me: she meant to say, "extensive." Mom: who has autoimmune issues? Me: your grandmother, mother, aunt, three uncles, first cousin, and me Mom: what autoimmune disorder do you have? Me: Schmidt Syndrome? Mom: oh, right Dr.: "extensive"
