Probably won't convert this to a wrestling account for a few reasons.

Stay here for sardonic takes, self-deprecation, top-shelf music recs and absolutely unhinged political raving.

I do want to still follow wrestle friends and see/support your stuff, however!
Ugly wins count the same.

Maybe it'd be cool if the President of the United States wasn't a pudding-brained fucking buffoon whose only core competency is to ape the very last thing he heard like a shitty Macaw.
White House officials are furious with Bill Pulte, the Federal Housing Finance Agency director, who talked Trump into suggesting a 50-year mortgage plan.

The White House was blindsided by the idea and is now dealing with a furious backlash from conservative allies, business leaders and lawmakers.

Senate Democrats are the only group of people in America that could look at the election results from *less than a week ago* and conclude, “Ah, what the people want now is for us to roll over and show our bellies to the reactionary creeps”

These Senate Dems are all "Now we can roll up our sleeves and begin the hard work of sitting down with our colleagues and having a real dialogue about doing the business that the people sent us here to do with common sense solutions to the problems that everyday Americans..." shut up shut up shut up

The model of holding individual senators responsible is broken here. The retirees clearly agreed to take the fall. Which is why the nos should get no credit for voting no unless they move to oust Schumer

Senate Democrats voting to dismantle the ACA to avoid any problems with their Thanksgiving travel is tragically on brand.

Democrats have to stop bailing out Republicans from facing the consequences of their own policies. And yeah, that means they have to stop sparing voters from experiencing what GOP government truly means.

Every time Dems step in, it only emboldens the GOP & they make it even worse the next time.
So Democrats get:

1. A CR that will prevent the GOP from facing the wrath of Americans for a shutdown over the holidays

2. A coupon for one (1) meaningless ACA vote that will fail

3. An end to the illegal RIF/SNAP moves that are already before the courts

Those all seem like wins for the GOP.

He's been a total heel and a coward for the better part of 2025. The voicemail being off dates back to *at least* February.

He doesn't want to hear from his constituents (which is why he doesn't do town halls).

Coward, villain, wimp. Fuck everything about him.
Unless your senator is Fetterman who has turned off his voicemail because he doesn’t give a shit what his constituents think both what a fucking monster he’s become
You can leave a voicemail at your senators' offices right now or text the word "resist" to 50409 & it will talk you through how to write them quickly & easily via text. Do not let them give in on this. Please call or write & tell them to hold the line & protect our healthcare.

One of the many reasons that Schumer straight up has to go is that, *best case scenario,* he has zero control over his caucus. The worst case scenario is considerably worse
I will say, I don't know what a plausible *good* outcome was -- the GOP wasn't going to sign off on good bills just because of some bad polls, I don't think online progs or Schumer/Jeffries had a clear plan to win this either?

but the Senate mods / institutionalists are throwing in the towel afaict

The real choice, no matter how much Senators wish it weren't:

"Unfortunately, making things better for the American people coming out of this shutdown is probably not an option. Either Trump makes things worse with Democratic affirmation, or Trump makes things worse despite Democratic opposition."
Opinion | Democrats shouldn’t bail out Trump as the shutdown drags on
The best time for the opposition to take a stand, rather than settle for untrustworthy promises, is right now.

Loathe to admit the "Dog Park" song from the Progressive ads is a really catchy tune.

If we want to stop the kidnappings and these agents require anonymity to commit these actions, then we must remove the masks.

So long as we allow masked law enforcement to terrorize people, we cannot be a democracy.
I’ve come to believe that we need to gather considerable forces and a campaign to demand the removal of face masks by ICE, Border Patrol, FBI and police.

It is a practice in conflict with the principles of transparency & accountability that are central to the concept of democracy.
Video on social media shows an immigration agent pulling a gun in Little Village and holding it to the side — which is not an appropriate or safe way to hold a gun. (Among other issues.)

What a concisely perfect reason to avoid using AI for intellectual work (if not any work).
What people do not do, they often lose the ability to do. Which is sometimes fine! In my own life, I don’t have any great need to know how to do some of the math I once learned. But I don’t want to forget how to write.
