"Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect."

-Wilhoit

"A man can fail many times, but he isn't a failure until he begins to blame somebody else." - John Burroughs

The skeleton key to understanding reactionary conservatism is quite simple: they are scared, all the time, of everything.

How much Elon Musk makes from the government a day: $8 million.

How much a senior on Social Security gets a day: $65

Guess which budget Musk and Trump want to cut?

Apparently Joe & Jill will ride with Trump & Melania to the Capitol tomorrow.

Either Trump is a threat to democracy, & guilty of an insurrection, or not.

I believe he is.

Biden claimed to believe he is, too. But Biden & many top Dems didn't actually believe it.

Otherwise, how to explain this?

UnitedHealth found to have overcharged some cancer patients for drugs by over 1,000%

Instead of "I apologize for the delay," write "thank you for your patience." In lieu of "sorry for the oversight," write
"if you're so perfect, why don't you fu*king do it, Marsha."

CNN is airing a Giuliani documentary, Fox News has a comedian joking about Canada, MSNBC a documentary about migrants

So I turned on BBC,which is breathlessly switching between Syria, South Korea demonstrations, and Ghana election

I know BlueSky is on to something because all the worst people you know are raging against it
