Maybe it’s the whole “actively looking for work so my life won’t collapse” of it all, but the “Hot or Not: US States Edition” seems silly to me

You have to admit, it is darkly funny that she was right about the elite pedophile conspiracy all along but accidentally joined it.

A lot of people on here were steelmanning this exact sort of behavior just a year ago. Wonder what's changed.
Israel says it will suspend several humanitarian groups, including Doctors Without Borders, in 2026 for failing its new vetting rules for groups working in Gaza. Some international organizations have said that Israel’s rules are arbitrary and could endanger staff.

we got here in part because decades of mainstream right-wing attacks on bodily autonomy were handwaved by today’s democracy-defenders as niche concerns, not fundamental freedoms. the methods of such attacks were also attacks on democracy. where were these guys then?

there is no moral universe in which someone who ran on QAnon and supported a coup is pro-democracy, and if there is, it’s worse than worthless
The pro-democracy movement needs to include factions which we disagree with vehemently on all other matters.
That’s the point of a pro-democracy movement—we aren’t aligned on the direction of our society, but we all agree we should have a right to contest it freely and fairly.

Sports rocks. We made jocks into lawyers.
So if Tampa beats Carolina on Saturday, then the ATL/NO game on Sunday decides the division winner and it won't be either team playing.
The NFC South is amazing.

So as a proud substack hater a whole 5 years before it was cool (easy to choice if you knew who the founder was etc), I genuinely did not know that it has reached the level of John Birch Society pamphlets.

the no tax on tips thing getting no serious pushback and the growing right-wing opposition to property taxes is a dark omen for the future of political economy
paying your taxes is good and that includes you (yes you) not just "billionaires"

The year is 2035. California's entire base of taxation is young renters and their entire budget goes to insuring suburban McMansions built in fire hazard regions. Half of Florida is underwater financially and the other half literally. Illinois is fine but still fucks up transit funding constantly.

There are moments the mask is removed, and all the lies evaporate. This quote by a District Attorney in California is incredible. He says the volume of shackled poor people brought to court--what he calls the "cattle call"--makes it impossible to consider them as individuals.
