I’ve been noticing a lot of similarities between Doctor Who and Kamen Rider lately, but I think Doctor Who could be improved by having an episode between Doctors where they both get to have an adventure together before the torch is passed.

I find it really disappointing just how pessimistic modern Shonen series have become. Is One Piece the only series left where the main cast smiles on a regular basis?

It took seeing adult bullies to understand that my childhood bullies didn’t even really want to hurt me, they just wanted to feel powerful and how I felt about it wasn’t even in the equation.
I can’t imagine someone not outgrowing that, but apparently it happens quite a lot!

there is such a pathological fear among dem electeds of backlash that it leads them to basically do nothing
As the unofficial Dem strategy explainer on here I can't really tell you why Jeffries had such a wimpy response to the Eric Adams quid pro quo. At some point this just becomes a timid resistance to doing anything.

This happened to me in Trump 1.0 when I called in and the dude said, “wow lots of calls about this issue today!” and I asked how many is a lot and he said “Seventeen!”
Motivates me to pick up the phone every time.

Found out that TWENTY emails is considered a lot to politicians on an issue.
TWENTY.
As in, they call that getting slammed.
So next time you see a request to email your rep, or call, keep that in mind.
