Fun discovery: apparently "insert table row" in this online-Sharepoint-abomination version of Excel will add the row, but only move down the contents of the cells in the first column, letting all the other columns become misaligned (╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻

This does show that after prolonged pain and suffering, voters, who are generally morons, are capable of learning.

With a very heavy disclaimer that I'm a minor SCOTUS nerd and bigger games nerd, this looks like a lot of fun for the lawyers and aspiring lawyers in your life I just signed up to be one of the backers too 😆 www.kickstarter.com/projects/for...

You guys know that Light was supposed to be the bad guy in Death Note, right?

This is an excellent, sobering piece by Ken. He takes issue with one of my posts, and I'm afraid he's right. Exulting in another person's murder has been a very American thing. I think we see that dysfunction more clearly online than off, but bloodthirstiness has always been part of our DNA.

Whisky the Kitten(ish)* is going to the vet today. Whisky the Kitten(ish) is a semi-feral beast who has successfully evaded being taken to the vet twice this month, once by successfully getting into a spot inaccessible by humans and once by ripping out of a soft pet carrier. *she's a year old now

Trying to get more liberals on this platform, and I keep getting is "but the echo chamber!" response from them. The people who wanted an echo chamber are not the people who you wanted a discussion my dude.

“Don’t feed the trolls” also extends to bad opinion pieces in papers of record. They run them bc people react to them the most. If we stop linking to bad columns and instead post thinkers we find valuable (& generate convo around it), incentives change. It’s not easy and takes constant practice!

I gotta say, I generally didn't block people on Twitter, but I've been blocking like crazy on this site and I highly recommend it.

Once again, amnesty has decided to endorse a bespoke view of international law intended solely for Israel: so long as you define just about anything as "genocidal intent" Israel has genocidal intent. Amazing

There are absolutely people who voted for Trump because he is Trump. But the people who put him over the top in the win column are not sycophants. It was voters who don't read the news, but saw prices stay high and lighter pocketbooks.

We need to make being a liberal fun and a way for young people to meet people and make friends I hate that the right has basically taken advantage of the loneliness of a lot of young people (esp. young men) to offer them community in exchange for votes against their own interests

There is a reason why many of us liberals don't talk about trans issues as much as we used to.

So this is a new one: I am being copyright-struck for the use of the Soviet National Anthem. I get bogus copyright claims on all my Ukraine videos every other week but this has got to be a new low.
