Kaine on why he thinks just getting a vote on healthcare is a win: "We're the minority party, but everybody will get to see who is standing for them when it comes to lowering their healthcare costs"

Sometimes I come across some art so good I just kinda want to kidnap the artist and lock them in my basement until they’ve taught me how to do it too.

Which, some insist, is something i shouldn’t do, but I’m not so sure.

First off, this is gibberish. But better still is the fact that he got whacked so hard by Oates that he’s desperately referencing a bit of Voltaire that he googled five minutes before.
"Oh no! He's listening to harpsichord music!"

The obvious racism aside, I don’t know how to respond to a president who thinks someone insisting we follow our own constitution is an irritating wokescold…
Trump on Ilhan Omar: "I look at somebody who comes from Somalia...and she comes in and tells us how to run our country. 'The Constitution says this, the Constitution says that.' The whole thing is crazy."

When AI crashes (and it’s a when not if) e are going to experience an economic catastrophe that I believe has no equal in all of history.
Look, i know a lot of us live for the schadenfreude of the crash & burn but i don't think some of you realize just in how many ways we are all in the fucking plane.

Some of the biggest buyers-into of this "AI" hype cycle have: your medical data, your identity data, control over the carceral system…

I cannot believe I’m seeing people defending Schumer by claiming he couldn’t stop the rogue senators. Which…come on, what’re we doing here? If you think those particular Dems just happened to buck the system and this wasn’t a coordinated plan, I don’t even know what world you live on…

Her bookshelf scares all the boys in the yard,
Damn right, it's got Lucy Maud,
Damn right, there's Baudrillard.
She's out read you, and it's not that odd.
New fear unlocked
There is a subreddit where people post pictures of bookshelves "bookshelf detective", and sometimes it's like "girl I'm dating, what do you think she is like"

And then the comments guess at what kind of person the owner of the bookshelf is and it feels ODDLY HUMILIATING LOL

In breaking news, AI can only function if regularly fed the souls of orphaned children. Some say this is a bad thing, others say it’s inevitable. Subway will now use AI to guess your sandwich choice and industry experts predict Wisconsin will be 87% data centers by 2028.

Oates has decided her life’s work is now to make this turd as small as anyone has ever been, and I am here for it.

This is…the stupidest problem possible. Of course you just have another Bond and his new adventures. No one gives a single shit about “canon.” It’s fucking James Bond.
James Bond’s death in No Time to Die is causing a nightmare for the next film. Writers are stuck because Bond “was blown to pieces.”

Anthony Horowitz, author of three 007 novels, says:

“You can't have him wake up in shower and saying it was all a dream."

Absolutely.

The far right took over the GOP through the long process of taking over local and county organizations and the left can do the same. It’s not an instant fix but it actually works.
Join your county Democratic Party! There are shockingly few people willing to show up and those are the people who get to make decisions

Oh crap, yes we do! I didn’t realize, but we need this so badly!!
Forget Bond. It's all been done before.

What we need is a dragon in human form who battles a resurrected mummy for the fate of the world.

I know. It's quite specific but

There’s always like 50 different kinds of art I want to be making at any time and ultimately the world makes sure I have the chance to do half of one of them. Sporadically.

We cannot let “haunted ICE agent regretfully explores his feelings/past/guilt” become a genre the way we did with every bad actor since the Confederates.
This is why they were in downtown Chicago today.

"one agent shouted, “Everyone say, ‘Little Village!’”"

Nuremberg Trials are the moderate stance

Gonna be interesting what happens if republicans decide to keep fucking around with SNAP anyway. Why not? What’s stopping them?
I received this email about Democrats caving to end the shutdown from one of the SNAP recipients I spoke to:

OSCAR ISAAC, on whether he'd return to "Star Wars":

".. Yeah. I mean, I’d be open to it, although right now I’m not so open to working with Disney. But if they can kinda figure it out and, you know, not succumb to fascism, that would be great."

Oscar Isaac was not open to working with Disney after Jimmy Kimmel's suspension and will only return to 'Star Wars' if the studio avoids fascism.

I mean, he could’ve ended it by leading a dem rep out in a leash and then pissing on them while everyone watched at this point. Why the fuck not?

And I've been doing politics for long enough to know clearly that the entire Senate Democratic caucus agreed to this decision to fold. Open your eyes. The 8 who "broke" did so with the complete blessing of Schumer and their colleagues. You don't have to play along because this is not a game. The end
