Mariners, Seahawks, Democrat, Beer, Cats. Not always in that order. Chicagoan. I make beer for Goose Island and definitely do not speak for them.
The exclusion of minorities from this country is a right wing conspiracy to block likely liberal voters from becoming citizens. See? It works both ways. Elon is a fucking 🤡
It’s really astonishing how Great Replacement stuff went from fringe conspiracist shit to something the most powerful people on the right routinely invoke to fairly muted outcry

Last year I spent Christmas Eve in San Fran because my flight to Seattle was re-routed due to freezing rain. The airline had no way to get us to Seattle until days after Christmas. So we had a great day in SF, if not a little sad. Flew home to Chicago instead. No refund from the airline. Assholes.

Nevermind that they were going to impeach her before she had heard a single case. It wasn’t the impropriety that dissuaded them… 😵
Wisconsin Republicans are way backtracking impeachment threats against the new liberal justice: apnews.com/article/wisc...
Why? Well, first there was a lot of backlash.
But also: They missed 12/1 deadline. Now, if they remove her, Evers appoints a justice to serve until 2031!

This coupled with a huge jump in consumer confidence is very good news. When the fed meets its inflation target (2%), interest rates can begin to get cut

Isn’t it kind of odd that in the last few months there has been a lot of media coverage about how the economy is doing really well but people seem to think it isn’t? And now, this:

I’ve been told the pandemic is not over…but it seems like serious health outcomes are.

Beer Advent Day 14 - Chocolate Peanut Butter Porter. An unmitigated disaster. Santa would give this to someone on the naughty list. I dumped it before even taking a photo.

I do love all these courts pointing out the obvious - conspiring to overturn an election is not the duty of any government official

Remember Amazon’s own research that showed it’s running through the entire available labor supply? Then, coincidentally I’m sure, Jeff Bezos starts talking about how people need to have more babies and quickly

I had a classmate who had an impossible Polish name so everyone called him Ollie. Sorry, Ollie. We all have to butcher your name now.
Missouri HB.1739 contains provisions for the immediate dismissal and 4 year suspension from employment for any nurse, teacher or social worker who calls a student a name other than that which is on their school registration forms, or fails to report a non-cis identity.

“I didn’t mind trump as President, I just really didn’t like his tweets”
Centrists are people who think "both sides make good points" or "the truth is somewhere in the middle". It's a spineless ideology that tries to justify atrocity.
