OK: Biden’s not stepping down. Like it or not, good idea or bad idea, not happening. From here on out, you can either complain about it like a loser, or help him defeat fascism. Time to decide.

I used to think, ok, I can see this in individual House districts. But at the state level senators will be elected who represent entire states. Until entire states took this far right turn. It's just astounding.

I think of the above baddies as more like leaches or worse who have no character other than to divide and hate for attention and money, etc. People like Doug Wilson are evil but seem to be sincerely evil. They aren't scamming, they're "living their authentic lives" which happen to be evil.

New Yorker wants Joe Biden, whose admin has had historical success, to resign bc he's not doing well at running for re-election. This is not, in fact, what the 25th Amendment was made for.

just watched 74 people speaking at least a dozen different languages become american citizens in a ceremony at monticello, where the speakers were themselves children of immigrants. inspiring stuff and a vivid illustration of what reactionaries want to snuff out

I wonder whether this will provoke a non-obsequious response from Pence or McConnell. I doubt it.

My sense is the US taking an abrupt hard right into authoritarianism will more likely be a big bang rather than a whimper. All the shit is going to hit the fan.

The editorialists will get around to you soon-ish. They each need to write a few more opinions on why Biden should withdraw and who should replace him.

This coming week, temperatures in Death Valley will be the hottest in the recorded history of this planet. Beryl is the earliest category four storm in the history of Atlantic hurricane season. People, both now and in the future, need us to stave off fascism and build a world where they can live.

In politics you can no longer take the moral high ground, cause that aint going to do you any good when you are in a camp with electrodes on your genitals. The thing to do is to kick these fucks to the ground now and stamp on their ball sack till it bursts.

At the Portland Timbers match last night the Star Spangled Banner was sung by a local drag queen. You know what the audience did? They cheered like crazy because it was a killer rendition of the song. Anyway, happy last day of Pride month.

We used to have a hardware store within walking distance... with creaky wood floors and it smelled like a hardware store. Home Depot ran them out long ago. For a while Home Depot had helpful staff in most departments. Now most of the staff just facilitate the self-checkout & the app is more helpful.

It would be a shame if someone in Grants Pass built a manger on public property and then the city tore it down while some homeless people tried to sleep under it.

NY Times calls for felon and rapist who brags about building camps for immigrants, sold top-secret documents to our enemies, promoted quack treatments as Americans died, and daydreams about dating his daughter to drop out of the race "for the good of the country." HAHAHA J/K IT'S THE OTHER DUDE
