The Democrats are like a Chicago Sports team: make the playoffs once a decade and advance once per vicennial. Just enough to keep the fan base from completely giving up.
Doing "Everything is normal" cosplay in Congress - debating GOP bills, confirming Trump nominees - while the administration is *arresting members of your caucus is not a bad sign, it is an epitaph. No group of people who refuse to fight *for their own skins* will fight for anyone else.

word on the street is the new Pope will be changing Mass. From now on, the body of Christ is deep dish communion wafers, and the blood is Malort.

Being an adult means being excited that you found a box big enough to put the contents of two smaller boxes into, so that you can claim you organized this weekend.

All of the research that has ever been done on coups shows that successful coups are often, nearly always, preceded by (and followed by!) unsuccessful coups.

My sense is authorities and many in the media deliberately chose the word “manifesto” early on because it sounds nutty and annoying. Whereas “a note justifying his actions” seems reasonable and something one may read with an open mind
262 words is not a manifesto. A manifesto should be so long and rambling that its sheer size deters people from reading it. It should look like you need a briefcase full of ragged, yellowed typing paper to lug it around in and wave at people. It should be usable as a melee weapon in an emergency.

People treat this stuff like you’re invited to an inner circle from a Bond movie and get to see a new version of the JFK assassination filmed from an angle you’ve never seen before. Actually the demands of the surveillance state mean they hand this shit out like candy.

I honestly cannot understand how liberal institutionalists are so enamored with a 250 year old document written by drunk syphilitic slaveholders despite its mainfest failures. It didn't even last a century before it caused the country to fracture into civil war! Should have been rewritten in 1866.

Be angry. Be unforgiving. Make holiday dinners with your racist misogynist uncle as awkward and uncomfortable as possible.
