It’ll forever be both a shame and telling that so many people missed the point of that SNL Black Jeopardy skit with Tom Hanks, one of the best representations of this
It’s kinda wild how people get so steeped in “class consciousness” that they blind themselves to the blatant bigotry and dynamics of misogyny and racism.
This is a blind spot of the left that is actually fairly prevalent and and a relatively easy fix.

Feb 14th 2016 - Despite Elaine's prediction on Peter Venkman's show "The World of the Psychic", about the world ending after her alleged encounter with an alien at the Paramus Holiday Inn, life continued as usual.

I regret to inform you that I have gone further down the terrible rabbit hole that is Elsie the Cow.
If you squint at enough eBay listings trying to read the words, you find a saga of a marriage gone mad.

This morning, I got distracted while eating cheese because I remembered that the laughing cow is named Elsie and is married to Elmer the cow on the glue labels. To doublecheck that I hadn’t hallucinated that, I looked it up and fell down a dark internet rabbit hole.

The irony is this was genuinely needed and I think Biden did do something about it, because a lot of GI Bill benefits were being funneled into low value diploma mills.
I mean what’s next - telling vets where they can apply their GI Bill?
Now Hegseth wants to decide where troops can take college classes in their off-duty time. I’m glad I was able to use this program while on active duty to go to the accredited school of my choice.

You may laugh, but the Macbeths are a much better role model for a marriage than Romeo and Juliet. They discuss their problems (killing the king of Scotland), share their hobbies (killing the king of Scotland), and resolve their conflicts (by killing the king of Scotland).

Had a weird feeling, turned around, and saw this in the corner of the elevator, slightly above my eye-level.
Oh thank god, its just a balloon from It.

Good job, Mountaineers, maybe you can get down to a single Congressional district by the next census.
ICE reported that officials arrested over 600 people in West Virginia between January 5-19. The detention data does suggest that ICE did intensify enforcement activity in the state at that time. Of the 5 newly-added ICE facilities on the recent list, 4 were from WV. wvmetronews.com/2026/01/31/i...

Given the increasing frequency and cost of major disasters, I don't see why FEMA shouldn't be a separate cabinet level agency. Disaster response is literally a major part of President's day job now! It's a really poor fit to lump it in with law enforcement.

So, it appears that FAA made the right call (in frustration to force the issue?) on issuing a NOTAM because CBP was cowboying around with an anti-drone laser "on loan" from the DoD and nobody was coming clean in a timely manner about safety and fire control after they fired on some mylar balloons.

Breaking news: President Trump backed down from his decision to exclude Democratic governors from an annual White House meeting that has long been bipartisan, according to the National Governors Association.

conceptual question for political scientists: when you use 'elite' as a technical term of art "opinion elites, elite persuasion, etc", would characterize someone like Will Stancil (large/activve online presence, no formal institutional power) as falling under the 'elite' umbrella for those purposes?
