I would date someone who disagrees with me on the federal budget or trade policy or a bond issue.

I would not date someone who believes it's appropriate to refer to human beings as "illegals" or votes for a rapist or believes in detaining people for their non-violent speech.

That's the difference.

Everyone has a list of so-called "red flags" when they're dating. And for some, especially younger Americans, different political views is a relationship deal breaker.
Majority of Gen Z swipe left on dating people with opposite political views

A 2023 analysis of the effects of CIA-sponsored regime change in five Latin American countries found the interventions caused “large declines in democracy scores, rule of law, freedom of speech, and civil liberties.”
SCOOP: CIA Was Behind Venezuela Drone Strike, Source Says

The December 24 drone strike in Venezuela is the latest in a long tradition of CIA interventions in Latin America — which often lead to destabilization and blowback.

Without exception, each instance of contemporary fascism emerged through the institutions and processes of liberal democracy.

If you need a break and have 49 minutes, Rosalia’s Lux album is a masterpiece, the likes of which contemporary music has not produced in living memory. It is stupefying, and I don’t think I have ever used that word in earnest in my entire life.

It’s hard to explain that growing up there were two different Raisin Brans, both called Raisin Bran and both in purple boxes, and to the untrained palate identical cereals. But if your mom brought home the wrong one you’d be like WHAT IS THIS SHIT YOU ARE GIVING ME

I will uncouple this, so as not to bother Sean, whose posts I enjoy very much.

In my experience, recounts are fascinating processes, but are exercises detached from elections in important ways. And when I say recounts, I include election contests, which are court cases about the counting. /1
Yes, understood. As a recount lawyer, I know there are lots of ways to look at piles of contested ballots, and that every recounting changes the story of an election. I suppose I just weary of the claims of anyone about what was “really” in Florida’s piles, and these posts reminded me of it.

Oh no is it a constitutional crisis? I won’t do anything unless it’s been established as a crisis. And even then I’ll argue about whether it really is a crisis, under a shifting definition of crisis that will undermine any appeals to get me to do anything later either.

As we descend into Auto-Pen inanity, let’s remember Trump’s people said he could declassify documents with his thoughts.

James Mason gives you 50 years of cinema—suspense, Shakespeare, early sci-fi—and closes his case with Heaven Can Wait, Boys from Brazil, and The Verdict.
This is a Bill Simmons game, but you’re stranded on a desert island. You can only have one actor’s filmography. You get it all, including cameos. But just the one performer.

I’m taking Cate Blanchett: Talented Mr. Ripley, LOTR, Life Aquatic, Black Bag, Tár, Ponyo, Hot Fuzz, Eyes Wide Shut, Thor

I spent a lot of time in Honduras when I was younger. In the mid-90s, I considered it my second country. Since that time I’ve watched it survive devastating hurricanes, incomprehensible levels of violence, and a golpe d’estado endorsed, if not directed, by a Democratic US administration. :1

High-order political malpractice is, of course, the one red line no American would ever dare cross
Tim Kaine: "It would be political malpractice of the highest order for the House to not take up a bipartisan bill coming out of the Senate."

I have in my papers somewhere (a relic of a former life) a draft of a review by James Oakes of Wood’s Radicalism of the American Revolution, that for one reason or another never got published. It’s ruthless and devastating.
Franklin is like Lincoln in he can't be contained. But Brands and Wood are very good. Read them first, then the Autobiography. To appreciate the Autobiography you have to know when and how to read between the lines. Then of course Schiff on Paris. There are recent good books just on the science.
What do you recommend as far as a great book or books about Mr. Franklin?

And did God even say thank you?
Eric Trump: "We're saving Christianity. We've saving God. We've saving the family unit. We're saving this nation. I mean, DEI is out of the window, Benny. You no longer have Colin Kaepernick kneeling for the national anthem. You no longer have Budweiser going woke as hell. All of this is dead."

I’ve heard no one, not a single person, voice this “impression”
There is a mistaken impression in Democratic circles that Trump's invasion of our cities and trampling of our rights and freedoms is popular. It isn't:

It’s a literal blip from thinking of random Venezuelan fisherman as murder-able to thinking the same of immigrants or protestors in Chicago and Portland.
