Kavanaugh is the apotheosis of white privilege.

I'm hispanic, an attorney and citizen. We had ICE smash car windows at our local courthouse not even a few weeks ago. Kavanaugh never has to think in advance what he might have to tell ICE. I do.

May his legacy always be spat upon.

Katsas and Rao do so much to treat my imposter syndrome.

Hey now, "No problem" is a perfectly cromulent response to "thank you".

There is no way that fucker is 37. Holy shit.

They truly look at the genre of Cyberpunk and think:

"Yes. That's the goal. Neon colors and holographic billboards. Its going to be so cool. What do you mean dystopia?"

Fuck all the way off with this take.

Classic Panzer General successor!

Any gaming lately? What's caught your eye in the computer gaming world?

Of course its an AI profile pic.

"We all agree she should have won, but it was bad that she won, which to be clear, I am in favor of."

/2 1. Real human beings will suffer from even a brief stay. 2. The government's position is transparently dishonest and in bad faith. 3. The Supreme Court has lost any benefit of the doubt. They have lost the mandate of the heaven that is the rule of law.

I'm so sorry to hear that. Losing a family member is never easy.
