I know it’s incredibly dorky and cringe, but I’ll be thinking a ton about Sam’s speech over the next four years. Never forget that there is good in this world, and it’s worth fighting for

This is as clear an example of “the enemy of your enemy is not your friend” that I can think of in current American politics
What I think a lot of people miss about the Bulwark crowd is that even though those guys abandoned the GOP, they didn’t all of a sudden abandon their deeply held right-wing values

it's fucked that we're expected to take seriously all these guys who'd get kicked out of a clown car for being too goofy. who cares what an adult man who says Based thinks, he's stupid. he thinks George Soros stole the green M&M's sexy boots, and he thinks it a LOT. let's hear his immigration ideas

That second TD by Bijan will seal it. Third place baby!
TD by Bijan in the first quarter let’s goooooo
It all comes down to this: I need Bijan Robinson and Blake Corum to get me a combined 34 fantasy points tonight so I can beat a guy who forgot he was still playing for something and left two injured players in his lineup 😞

We lost in the semifinals, so Ball Too Well’s championship dreams are dead. But after RJ Harvey’s solid performance last night, we’re off to a good start in our bid for third place, which would be my best finish in 5 seasons of playing in this league

I genuinely think people are underestimating how much influence never Trump conservatives have in the Democratic coalition right now and how their influence is acutely felt by the people they’ve targeted throughout their political careers.

One of the biggest advantages that Republicans have over Democrats is that Republicans control a nation-wide terrorist network and Democrats do not.

The murder rate dropped by 20% in 2025, the largest U.S. decline ever recorded
Crime in the U.S. fell in 2025. Will the trend continue?
Crime rates dropped across much of the U.S. in 2025. That was true for both property and violent crime. And it declined nearly everywhere: In big cities and small towns, and in red and blue states.

Despite my opponent having Devon Achane in last night’s game, Ball Too Well has convincingly moved on to the semifinal round to face the 1 seed. Pretty impressive considering my WR depth chart has mostly been constructed from dumpster diving the waiver wire all season

Bluesky is a lefty safe space until you say exactly one thing critical of the Democrats, which is not permitted under the terms of service and makes you Hitler.

"Attention hacking" makes it sound like they are winning the game rather than rigging it - Republicans bought up and control the biggest platforms and audiences. There are machines that literally determine what stories people see and conservatives own the machines.
I feel like "attention hacking" is most of politics now. The Minnesota aid fraud story is becoming a perfect example.
Recap: In 2022, the Biden DOJ filed the first charges against dozens of fraudsters, many of them Somali-American, who'd fleeced a state food aid program. (1/x)

If you are saying universal healthcare *cant* realistically happen with our current political system and economy you should be advocating for revolution to overthrow that system instead of being ok with no universal healthcare
