Just saw Rental Family with Brendan Fraser. Truly touching dramedy anchored by a brilliant lead performance and a ton of Tokyo scenery porn to boot!

I definitely think he could lose the primary, should anyone care to do us Pennsylvania voters a favor by running.

Whatever is an overtly misogynist show. But what I learned in research is that it's boys and young men who are being harmed even more by this show and others like it.

The "lessons" of redpill, experts told me, drive young men to despair and make them lonelier.

Finally here! I've been working on this article for a few months now.

Whatever podcast clips are ubiquitous, spreading truly vile misogyny everywhere online. But almost nothing is known about the show.

Well, I aim to change that. My investigation.

Shocked anew every time someone tells me they listen to the podcast. You mean those are PUBLIC?!
Very little news/politics media is enjoyable to me these days, it’s either too depressing or just suck because it is the same old shit we have been hearing/thinking for the last 5-10 years.

@inbedwiththeright.bsky.social by @moiradonegan.bsky.social and @adriandaub.bsky.social is not amongst them.

and very specifically extreme pro-Israel politics are well on their way to being a massive loser in Dem politics and by the 2028 primary (if not already) they will be a huge liability

Fetterman-esque politics have a constituency of zero these days

the Trump cult demands unconditional adherence, so they don't care for "centrist" Dems, and the Dem base would like <redacted> to happen to every one of their opponents and constantly insulting them puts you on that list

The US accidentally invaded Mexico on Monday, storming a beach and planting DoD “restricted area” signs claiming the land for “the commander,” triggering a standoff w/ armed Mexican security forces, all because Trump’s government can’t even identify a border on a map

www.cbsnews.com/news/warning...
Warning signs appear on Mexican beach declaring area restricted by U.S. as Mexico rejects Trump offer to strike cartels
The signs read in English and Spanish, "Warning: Restricted Area," and had been declared restricted by "the commander."
