At a basic level, our society did not evolve to account for an entire layer of elite society just lying, continuously and without consequence, and making lying into a core skill set. It really is that dire — civilizations collapse because of alienated, delusional elites.
Damn, I hate it when things that happen mean nothing :-(

the fact that Sandwich Guy is facing this 'wich trial at all is evidence of subpar justice. he is a hero being put through the judicial grinder. i hope the jury wraps up a not guilty verdict without delay or loafing around

I'm one of the only students in my geography class not using AI to complete my homework for me.
The homework is: write 500 words a week from a choice of 3 prompts. The assignments are worth 10 points each. The mean for this week was 4. 🫠

Replace them all. Primary every single one. They are useless to us as we fight this autocracy.
95 democrats, including @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social voted to "honor" the life of charlie kirk, who called for joe biden to be killed and said black women like justice ketanji brown jackson are unqualified affirmative action hires.
shame.

I would love for a single democrat to reckon with the fact that conservatives are not in fact motivated by reasonable concerns. They are — just as they were with ‘concerns’ over blacks and gays and numerous other minorities over the last five decades — motivated by bigotry.

It's laughable that so many people still think the US is the best, most free country in the world. Delusional.

When I find myself in a situation where I don't know how to respond, I think about the kind of person I want to be (and be seen as) when I grow up and I act like I think that person would.

As far as I (a non-American non-lawyer) understand, he can't currently legally do this.
Also as far as I understand, however, he has his hands on many of the levers of power and could possibly find or create a legal way to do it.
