Biden going to Cheney's funeral while Trump skips it, is just too on the nose. Biden is determined to leave a legacy of a total dipshit for passively following the rules of decorum over anything resembling honor. For the record, Cheney's coffin should have been airdropped into a pig farm.

Isn't Isiah Berlin's typology of academics as either Foxes (who know lots of little tricks) or Hedgehogs (who know one big trick, but exhaustively) just anticipating the all-academics-have-ADHD-or-Autism conversation? Asking as a diagnosed fox

Miss me with this instant forgiveness of Marjorie Taylor Greene. She’s no hero. She’s Christoph Waltz at the end of Inglorious Basterds.

The Revolution is a skill issue. Games, our generation's signature medium taught us that. Our parents saw that the USSR failed and thought it was the end of communism. We saw it and inuitively think: "we could do better with a more optimized build".

Brazil didn’t stop at sentencing former president Bolsanaro to 27 years for an attempted coup; his entire inner circle—from the vice president and the military commander to the intelligence chief and even his son—are also facing decades in prison.
America, this is what democracy looks like.

The hemp ban is their downfall. See Texas this summer as people who yawned about concentration camps suddenly rioted and sent boxes of mail to Abbot protesting the threat to their weed. This will truly doom the GOP next year. Americans only ever riot over yumyums and losing weed? There will be blood

Having been an academic for a decade, I've seen a new harassment and discrimination video for each year of my employment, but the overdue one I am watching now is *chefs kiss*. It is terrible. They even added a national suicide prevention lifeline on the interface: they know their product SO well.

Normal isn't coming back so get off your knees and fight back - what they have planned for us is far worse than anything they've already done.

Good morning from Judge Jeffrey Cumming's courtroom, where he's considering a motion to release 100s of "Midway Blitz" arrestees on EM who were subjected to "warrantless" arrest.

This camp is in El Paso. This is where today’s flight from Gary just landed. It was carrying detainees from ICE’s detention facility in Broadview.
All of DHS’s denials in this story about inhumane conditions and lack of access to attorneys are the same false claims they made about Broadview.
