How Hard Are World Leaders Laughing At El Dumbass's Brazilian Tariff Shakedown Letter Right Now?
Evil and megalomaniacal like Krugman said? Yes. But also just so brazenly, laughably stupid.

Trump's repeated attacks on "DEI," "wokeness," and the trans community have one clear purpose:

If we are angry at each other, we won't look up to see how big corporations and billionaires have rigged markets and siphoned off most of the economy's gains.

arguing about what sort of reaction Ds had to speech is stupid, irrelevant and counterproductive. the message is clear: Ds are only ones against Mr. Crazy Pants. Now get out and organize, demand town halls (even if Rs don't show), keep on Rs case (espec Collins, Tillis in Sen)

I can't think of a faster way to undermine the country than simultaneously firing government workers, cutting scientific research, rolling back protections on public health & environment, & cutting essential services. It's like the US was defeated in war and is being occupied by a hostile enemy.

I'm glad that America is doing real classic end of empire stuff. A king who is visibly losing his mind declaring a war based on a dream he had. Greedy courtiers feuding over access to the treasury. Some looks are timeless.

Yup, it works. Want a book the library doesn’t have? Ask ‘em for it.
I don't have a good understanding of the behind-the-scenes workings of libraries, but mine keeps buying the books that I request, and my librarian friends have told me that I should keep doing that.

Calling art “content” is like calling your pets “meat.” It’s technically correct, I guess, but it’s real reductive and kinda gross.
