"staff writer, the atlantic" remains the surest way to identify the dumbest people you know

Last time I called Gillibrand's office, I said something along the lines of "I will pledge my life to your primary challenger in 2030 if its the last thing I must do on this Earth" and there was a long silent pause before the staffer went "... I can certainly pass that message along" lol

Go fuck yourself you piece of shit. Your soul is rotten and will be fed to Amitt in the Great Hall of Osiris.

Especially in the broader context of being told repeatedly (not by you, to be clear!) that he was playing the GOP like a fiddle 24 hours ago. Lot of people projecting fantasies onto Schumer when "he's just not great at this" probably remains the most accurate description of his leadership afaik

I think this is a fairly reasonable opinion, but sure!

Not particularly convinced that he should get credit for voting "no" when he can't keep the rest of his caucus together tbh. Pelosi/Harry would never have let this fly

"ME, the smart and clever boy, who just yesterday was calling the rest of you morons for not knowing anything about politics, need to read the CR before I decide if this is bad, because ONLY I can understand the true ramifications of this move". Do these people hear themselves. Man.

I'm going to crash the fuck out

Can't help but notice that there's a near-perfect overlap between these people and those who shriek about "doomers" if you point out observable facts about the direction the country is moving towards. Wonder if that means anything. Ah, well.

Doing this would be insanely stupid and Schumer should walk the plank, but at the very least only extending the CR to Jan. 31 means we get to this again in two months. Don't think giving up Thanksgiving + Holidays leverage is particularly smart.

running to twitter to cry to other assholes about how mean bluesky left-libs remains one of the most pathetic traits someone can have lol

Im willing to make an educated guess lol

I lived in Singapore for seven years and my family is still based there, but I'm much happier living in a democratic city that has both legalized weed and respects my freedom of assembly and expression. But maybe I just have a stronger commitment to American constitutional values than you do.
