feel like i have to steel myself for the possibility that the administration will deliberately release the files with Oops! All Democrats in order to nuke the opposition and the dems are walking right into it because they love nothing more than stepping on the biggest rake available

Japanese-style laws around car ownership and overnight street parking are a little draconian and that's Good, Actually
"my least woke opinion is---"

That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.

Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

"Nostalgia for a time that never existed is a huge problem."

it is THE problem, imo, like that is definitionally a huge component of fascism
People wildly overestimate the economic security experienced by past generations. There's no period in American history where significant numbers of young people were just handed high paying jobs. Nostalgia for a time that never existed is a huge problem.
Why Nikki Haley’s son went radical: His generation inherited insecurity.

I profile Nalin Haley, a fascinating young man, who I believe will likely play an important role in conservative politics in years to come.

genuinely fucking funny for Republicans to be angrily screaming that the Republican candidate, who won the Republican primary, ran as a spoiler against the Independent candidate that lost the Democratic primary

“at least half [of all people] are inherently bad” is wrong on many levels and a truly awful way to mobilize support for any kind of political project

how is this person taken seriously as a political analyst
Liberals,

I realize this is hard to hear but many, many people are not inherently good.

At least half are inherently bad and capable of terrible, terrible things.

Esp once they feel like they’ve been unleashed.

my latest investigation for @consumerreports.org is based on months of reporting and 60+ lab tests of leading protein supplements

we found that most protein powders and shakes have more lead in one serving than our experts say is safe to have in a day (🧵)

In 2004, Parisian police were conducting a training exercise in the french catacombs and found, after moving past a desk and a tape playing audio of snarling dogs, a fully functional movie theater and bar. When they returned 3 days later, the equipment was gone, with a note: “Do not try to find us.”

this is obviously bad, and the new tariffs with china are going to immediately kill any smugness i have here, but, for now, you can still buy some out of this world high quality tea for significantly less than basic costco brand coffee
everything is on fire these days, sure, but how is it that 50% of all news stories are not about how I just spent $20 on a bag of store brand coffee at fucking costco

still remain convinced that our current political climate is heavily underwritten by the fact that many conservatives fundamentally believe that cities were a bad idea

like a huge chunk of voters have no ideological commitments beyond Cities Bad

somehow reassuring that this govt continues to make unforced errors that will likely erode support from demos they could easily have locked up
Having won over the brass by calling them fat and gay, the next step is to win the hearts and minds of the grunts by taking away their cheap treats
