Scott is referring to Defector. I agree with Scott. If you're not familiar, it's the site the former staff of Deadspin started after they were told to "stick to sports." There is a lot of sports. They don't stick to it, though. There's politics and culture and science. People should check it out.

Donald did this because MAGA gets a thrill from cruelty, humiliation, and slavery nostalgia.

So when those drug commercials are on TV in the US and they ramble off a list of a myriad of side effects, I think they should add bankruptcy to that list as number one.

Some intel: I've talked to journalists and folks on the Hill about this. Last night after OMB's action, some Senate Dems tried to unify the caucus to vote against Duffy. Schumer, among others, opposed it, and it flopped. The current Dem leadership strategy is to use strong language but not do shit.

Tradition, inertia, and fear of chaos are holding this zombie "union" together. The first two are bad reasons. What happens if they push it to the point that accepting these things leads to more chaos as not accepting them would, and there's no benefit to membership? I'm not smart enough to know.

So now the MAGAts are directly attacking my deep-blue neighborhood in suburban Cleveland, for the first time that I have noticed. This restaurant is part of a local chain. The Cleveland Heights location is in the heart of a neighborhood that appeals to people you might call "hippies."

A majority of crowdfunding for the arts is a circle of artists giving to other artists and has replaced the historical norm of grants and wealthy people funding the arts, and I hate that.

I shared someone else's take on this earlier but I can't get it out of my head what an unbelievably bad tweet this is. We elected people to fight for us, not just throw up their hands and let democracy slip away.

Why the fuck is a single Senate Democrat playing “everything is normal” by voting to confirm the Cabinet picks of a fucking dictator? Do. Not. Comply. You have ALL spent the last how many years calling him Hitler and now you’re like, ‘I’m a yes on Goebbels and here’s why…” Fuck that. Stop it. Now.

The important difference between a committed nazi and someone who just likes to troll people by acting like a Nazi is that there is none.

Racists got tired of not being allowed to say the "n" word, so they decided to replace it with the weaponized term DEI. Prove me wrong.
