“now would be a good time to propose legislation” dawg, they do not hold a majority in either chamber and the party that does has said explicitly they are ok ceding their political power to the executive

Usually a group meeting that looked like this would be about blocking a 12 unit apartment complex in town. Now they’re chanting “no kings” They are not ready for the backlash

the primary problem will still be the microplastics ejected into the atmosphere from billions of car tires.

periodically, my mind wanders to thinking about the dinosaurs that may have been sucked into space. i will not elaborate.

It’s funny because Bernie, since the election and up until last week, was actually trending modal “can’t we be franz!?” Dem. He’s got the juice back, that’s a good thing.

Autarky is good, and that's why dark age kingdoms were so much richer and more powerful than the Roman Empire.

I want you to put the word out there that we back up

A local reporter angrily replied to me and then unfollowed me when I criticized him for saying “Biden supporters reminded him of MAGA” during the Biden-old issue of June. He then went on to never mention Trump’s age and use his nightly segment to say coming to Aurora, CO would be “good politics”

you know, we think about the rise of fascism as a response to WWI but sometimes I wonder if it wasn’t as much a response to the 1918 pandemic

However much you hate the American political press, I promise you it is not enough.

I agree with a lot of the critiques from grass roots normies. However, I think we all need to stop anger spiral posting articles from NYT, Axios and Politico that make Dems look bad. That’s actually their MO. They want their liberal readers more upset with Dems than the GOP—who they support.

This was sexist, my wife was also there with her ebike and Patagonia jacket drinking stouts

It's genuinely insane the night and day difference in age coverage on Biden vs Trump, because the former was EXPLICITLY AND ADMITTEDLY DIRECTED BY AG

POV: You're 16, believe being in advanced placement math class means you're a once in a generation genius, and have just discovered Reddit.

My experience with the post office has never been like this

the new york times is genuinely evil

one of the problems with the prospect of liberals surrendering power to the left is that there is no one to surrender to

The MAGAs are really, really blatantly firing a ton of women in the federal government and military for the crime of being women, and it is embarrassing when people ignore or downplay this.

He wants to touch the stove so bad. He’s 100% convinced he won’t get burned.

Me and like 7 other denver dads, locking up our e-bikes, wearing our Patagonia jackets and grabbing stouts

I continue to be against summary execution. This take is a lot hotter than you think because I didn't show you the hot guy first

Literally just loudly and constantly hate Donald Trump and pretend to have a tolerance for middle aged women. You can be as left wing as you want. Just do those two things.

GenZ really is the most nihilistically money obsessed generation and I can feel it affecting me, especially as I look around at my (former) literal peers

I hold what many consider “left leaning” positions. I value AOC’s temperament in politics over my two senators who still tepidly extended olive branches to bipartisanship. However, I will continue to be very hesitant in supporting “leftists” to office because they often implode spectacularly.

There was a state house representative I begrudgingly donated $20 to who was openly celebrating the prospect of Biden being a single term president and then Harris losing. This was also the position of his entire political circle.
