no person with two brain cells to rub together thinks politically appointed judges are more neutral than disinterested, unelected bureaucrats. that’s the whole point of bureaucrats!

I really cannot overstate how much it would be fucking amazeballs for the US to be fighting about positive visions for the future and on policy, and how much it fucking sucks that this year is our third cycle in a row where instead we're running a national referendum titled "sooooooo fascism?"

the most frustrating aspect of this campaign to me is that it has stripped me down to bare pragmatism "does this give us a better chance to beat Trump" is the only thing that is important to me anymore the danger is so overwhelming that nothing else matters and I hate it

This is a huge pet peeve of mine, and because I feel like disrespecting our leaders is the one true American birthright, I move that the title for former office holders henceforth be "that fuckin guy."

One of the things America was absolutely right about is that does not need, and should outright reject state-awarded titles of nobility. And so we should reject these too. If you are in the hot-seat in the oval office, congratulations Mr President. The day you leave, it should be just goodbye, Mr.

Not that anyone particularly cares about original meaning, but think folks should still say it out loud: For all of the things that are unclear in the founding documents and unknowabilities of what the Founders intended, "the President can kill anyone or commit a coup" was *never* legally arguable

I don't want some egghead bureaucrat telling me whether there's poison in the water I drink. Ideally I'd want that decided by a 29yo judge who went to a "biblical law school" and does not believe dinosaurs existed, and then to have that decision reaffirmed six years later by the Supreme Court.

the awkward thing is that functional capitalism is more or less inseparable from representative democracy. capitalism requires markets, legally binding contracts, and a functional judicial system to work best. this is a real reason why capitalism is different from colonialism and mercantilism, etc

I've had a Canon A-1 since I was in 8th grade (hand-me-down from my dad), and I haven't used it in years. Just got my first roll of film back and man, film is fun! The thrill of looking through pictures you took weeks ago really is a feeling I've missed.

Three days after it was revealed that this guy's license was wrongly listed as suspended due to a clerical error, none of the publications listed here (NYT, WP, NYP, USA Today, BBC, CNN, Fox, MSNBC) have issued corrections or updates.

just remember trump won't read your jokes about him, unless, as we recently found out, you get jury selected on one of his other trials, in which case they might actually be read out to him to his face, so, y'know, go for it

A thought I had earlier that I hate enough to share is that most of "Losing My Edge" works in a Trump voice, and that effectively all of the "I was there" parts are basically note-for-note Trump stuff. He was there when Captain Beefheart started up his first band, but he was very nasty to "Trump."

This is exactly it, just like Mulaney's observation that Trump is what a hobo imagines a rich man to be. It's like the culture was completely taken over by fucking cartoon characters.
