Conceding the election at her watch party at Marathon Music Works in Nashville, Behn called the race "the beginning of something so powerful across Tennessee and across the South."
"The South is not silent, because the South has something to say."

Have been giddy with delight with the "May I Ask for One Final Thing" dub, esp. Reagan Murdock as the charmingly teasing Julius.
Ricco Fajardo's absolutely feral performance as Kotaro in Zombie Land Saga too. Both cases, incredible character just in the voices, even without looking at the screen.

you could fact check this — there aren’t 30 million illegal immigrants and there is no evidence that the presence of an immigrant in say houston has any impact on housing in madison, wisconsin — or you could note straightforwardly that this is just nazi rhetoric
JD Vance: "A lot of young people are saying housing is way too expensive. Why is that? Because we flooded the country with 30 million illegal immigrants who were taking houses that ought by right go to American citizens."

So, they're blaming immigrants for the deliberate housing crisis caused by crony capitalist private equity now? I did Nazi that coming 🙄

basically every 2024 truism is dead. Trump did not build a lasting multiracial coalition or turn young men into committed Republicans. You don’t need to cave on trans rights to win. The pundits have nothing left to tell you.

This seems like a bad thing to have. I feel like the entirety of both parties should be anti-Hitler.
But a senior Republican just publicly admitted that’s not true.
That’s … really really bad.

the entire second term is just going to be one long object lesson in why corporations used to want their customers to think of them as apolitical

Erin does great work on here, and this entire thread is well worth a read, not just for the information that contains, but because it'll make you feel better about what's going on in the country
4. Netflix, however, didn’t flinch—and a week later, its stock is up, the boycott a fizzle rather than a firestorm, a hollow echo of the successful Disney backlash led by liberals around the same time that followed Jimmy Kimmel’s firing.

the thing that kills me about “people in red states deserve to suffer” is we live in a red country under that definition and none of these people think that they themselves deserve suffering just because they live here

Today, USAID shuts down.
Experts say this could lead to 14 million deaths by 2030—including 4.5 million babies and children under 5.
Let’s not forget, Trump recently let a warehouse full of food aid rot rather than feed the hungry.
This isn’t America first. It’s America heartless.
