The fact we never got a series of the Mike Mignola created Civil War era pulp spy thriller with Paul Giamatti, David Hyde Pierce, and Molly Shannon after such an incredible pilot is an absolute travesty.

“Students gather on The Lawn at the University of Virginia. The commonwealth’s flagship university only began enrolling women at its main campus in Charlottesville in 1970.”
That’s within the lifetime of many people currently in charge of education and government.

The people who brought you “Project 2025” sure seem to be ramping up an attack on equality in higher ed.

Inside of me is an extremely dumb guy and a relatively smart guy, and the smart guy is so fucking sad, just a mess. So he mostly lets the dumb guy run things. At least the dumb guy can get up in the morning, you know?

It did not "go viral". It was intentionally filmed and disseminated using a network of coordinated bots, amplified by an algorithm designed to spread this kind of content quickly. This was a harassment campaign, intended to silence everyone. Call it what it is.

This is what people are doing when they say "Joe Biden is the best president in the modern age".

you can tell when someone is too used to making shit up online because they stop being able to find easy tells in their own lies, such as "why would attendees at an in-person con ask a white man if hes black"

The billionaire is legitimately asking every few weeks how we do universal healthcare in this country. Trust billionaires! 🇺🇸
Cuban is asking a legit question. Most Americans have no idea of the variety of ways universal coverage works, often thinking it’s all single payer while actually that’s a very unusual model internationally. In fact, Canada’s approach is unlike Germany’s and that’s unlike Great Britain’s. 1/2

I think it's long past time we reckon with the fact that any "credible" media giving accolades to books like this are in fact not representative of a political spectrum.
Our media is in fact aligned on the far-right of that spectrum.

This is genuinely horrifying. Fact-free far-right agitprop given accolades by credible media across the political spectrum.

This guy is an arse, and also wrong: Sensible Centrism was dead as fuck as any kind of popular phenomenon in the 2000s and it will continue to plague and damage us next year because - like the Tories 2016-21 - it’s rotted corpse was propped up and walked around by the press, like Weekend At Bernie’s

I feel like I've lived through 20 years of "They can't be THAT stupid can they?" and "Don't attribute to malice that which can be explained by stupidity". Everyone presumably on our side treats fascists as if they're ignorant babies who somehow keep consistently doing fascism. It's not coincidence.
what if i told you evil, corrupt, and incompetent are kind of a common packaged deal and they’ve all been laughing at you your entire life

If i won the Powerball I'd hire the 50 Cent team to follow him around for, idk, a month straight and all I want is a detailed breakdown of his day to day. How many hours in meetings, in offices, how much time does he do real, actual work?
