I am not live posting the whole argument here because I want to listen closely to Trump v. Slaughter. But the solicitor general for Trump just said the point here in killing the independence of agencies like the FTC is that executive branch officers must “fear and obey” the president. Wow. #SCOTUS

a thing to ask yourself re: the GOP's electoral position is what could happen over the next year that could *improve* its position? and what could trump do, plausibly, that might *boost* his numbers with the public?

The answer, in terms of 'what the Average Joe do to combat the attempts to oust trans people from society' is to just start new clubs that are renamed the inclusive womens institute, and let their crusty old clubs die with their members.

Normally the creators of beloved children’s cartoon characters would not need to disavow the U.S. Secretary of Defense, but ours is a drunken miscreant, a loutish boor with the dignity and nobility of a counterfeit butt-plug

I feel about Thanksgiving like I feel about Silksong: git gud, bitch.
the “thanksgiving food is bad” discourse raises its ugly head every year, but the truth remains that thanksgiving food can be amazing as long as you know how to cook. the problem is we’re throwing a few million sunday drivers directly into a grand prix
I think this is unfair to turkey. turkey is good but hard to cook well because it is so damn big. turkey *parts* are great but lack the esthetic appeal of a centerpiece bird.

My favorite part is that the screenwriters asked Chandler who killed a character because the novel didn't say and he didn't know either.
But they figured it out well enough, he supposed.

You know how movie people talk about how The Big Sleep (1946) is really good? Turns out they’re right. It rules. Humphrey Bogart has a line that may be the filthiest thing anyone ever said in a code era movie.

President Trump has called for Democrats to be executed for sedition. The voters expect Democrats to come to the table with a real counter-proposal and negotiate a mutually acceptable compromise. That’s doing politics the right way.

ICE employee among 16 men arrested in Bloomington sex trafficking sting, police say.
"When he was arrested, he said, 'I'm ICE, boys,'" Hodges said during a press conference Tuesday. "Well, unfortunately for him, we locked him up."

It seems to me that "the institution of slavery has left a nearly two hundred year cultural scar on the region in which it was most prevalent" and "there are still loads of good people living in the South who deserve to not be written off" are not actually in tension with each other.

Sounds like the squishes in the senate caucus are ready to pull the plug with no ACA changes. This is real. If you want to register your opinion you shld call yr senator in the next hour. They not only want to reopen w/nothing. They want cover from their colleagues who still want to hold out.

It's weird because I don't go outside, don't have a pet, rarely watching movies, have few friends, am estranged from my family, don't really follow sports, and am broke, and yet Oates is right — I'd bet good money my life is better than Elon Musk's
