Democrats' refusal to even consider packing the Court or impeaching Thomas and Alito when they controlled the White House and both houses of Congress in 2021 looks even worse today than it did in real time

You won't believe what happens next www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

If you're wondering, we spent the afternoon and evening checking out this exhibit, and having a belated anniversary dinner at the fancy pants hotel www.gormleys.ie/exhibitions/...

This RTE piece on the cost of living in Ireland totally buries the lede: "Although prices in Ireland are 38% higher, salaries are 55% higher than EU average" www.rte.ie/brainstorm/2...

Unpopular opinion, but gotta say whatever respect I had for Nick Cave just evaporated www.theguardian.com/music/2025/j...

Every time I find a Democrat who might be worth supporting, they open up their mouth and let the stupidest shit come out: “If they are undocumented, we want them out of Illinois and out of our country,” Pritzker said." Reminder: 'Nazis are right about immigrants, don't vote for them,' doesn't work
