Personal account for personal opinions. In this capacity, I represent neither my employer nor my very patient wife.

He/him
My most woke opinion is I *do* want to ban and confiscate guns. We should melt them all down and build a bridge over the Rio Grande with them, which we paint rainbow.
"my least woke opinion is---"

That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.

Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

The Department of No-Shit-Sherlock announced today that the sky is blue

Captain Jonathon obvious had this to say:

"Obviously we're very pleased to put the sky question to bed. This team is doing work on par with the Is-Water-Wet case of '78. By 2035 we hope to know whether bears shit in the woods"
Bill Gates says we're in an AI bubble similar to the dot-com bubble
"Absolutely, there are a ton of these investments that will be dead ends," Bill Gates said on "Squawk Box."

Jeanine Pirro tried to make an example of Sean Dunn.

She ended up delivering a hero to Washington, D.C.

Anyway, beat back facsism with this one weird trick:
Find a black woman
Ask her who she is voting for
Vote for that person

democrats are probably going to win everything tonight running democratic socialists, anti-trump fervor, and various flavors of moderates and everyone will learn from this exactly what they already believed

We need to do the March to the Sea
we need to do reconstruction again
My column this week. Keep an eye on this Alabama constitutional amendment that would prevent naturalized citizens from holding most state offices. It feels like it has a much bigger target in its sights: the due process provisions of the 14th Amendment.

Standard time is the worst thing ever devised. Going home at 5pm in darkness is absolutely soul crushing. All so a bunch of morning people can have a little more daylight at 6am.

Look, it was three whole years ago that Platner was saying anti-gay things, but he's changed, and he definitely won't change again. How could he? It's not like a senate term takes more than three years, right?

Anyone telling you this spells doom in Maine is being silly.

It is now 230 days until the primary and 377 days until the general.

And it’s not like the campaign has already been going for a long time. Platner just announced 293 days before the primary and 440 days before the general election.

If you said, "And then he *physically* demolishes the Whitehouse" you'd be kicked out of the writer's room for heavyhanded allegory.

If I were a wannabe strong man who already had the largest protest movement in US history on my hands, I would simply not starve 40 million desperate people with little to lose.
40 odd million people use SNAP. 7 million WIC. food banks are already way down because of funding cuts. It’s going to be catastrophic
I want more people to care that SNAP benefits are being cut off on November 1. 40% of SNAP beneficiaries are children. This is callous and vile.

An ironic Nazi is a Nazi. Just about every Nazi I've seen started out ironic. I would not be surprised if WWII historians discover Hitler was just joshin' and it got away from him.
All these people are saying “wait to you think he’s REALLY a Nazi,” and my response is “no I think it’s more likely he’s an irony-poisoned edgelord douchebro, another group that’s absolutely ruining the fucking country.”
