Why do I log into social media when it only pissed me off and reminds me that I am the only person who thinks my jokes are funny? (They are really funny, just give me a few minutes to explain. You see, when I said that…)

No one has to be happy with the fact that we only have two choices for President, but we do. No one has to like Biden’s Israel policy - I don’t - but it’s 100x better than Trump’s would be. No one has to think Biden is in his prime, but Trump never even had a prime. Better is better. Worse is worse.

There’s a reason we legalized weed in California and it’s really about putting up with shit like this. Cannot wait for Gavin to begin using “beast mode” in his press conferences.

Really glad people seem to finally be out of patience with the “Trump and Biden are the same” crowd. Those people are selfish assholes who want to burn the whole house down if they don’t exactly what they want (and which 90% of people don’t want) and don’t care about who gets torched in the process.

I stutter. I’m also a pretty good extemporaneous speaker. I’ve been rattled to the point of panic when things start going off the rails. It is IMO likely that a big chunk of Biden’s debate struggles were downstream of a rocky start and attempts to recover through his mouth throwing 404s

Democrats spend all this time wondering how Republicans can be voting against their own self-interest while we go and aggressively self-sabotage ourselves every fucking time. Biden is in better mental shape than Trump or Reagan. Fucking say that, you spineless sacks of … [some cowardly garbage].

Donald Trump bragged on tape about raping women and getting away with it, and his party didn’t break with him. He unleashed a mob of terrorists on the US Capital, and his party didn’t break with him. He was convicted of 34 felonies and you get it. But Hillary coughs or Biden takes too much NyQuil…

Let’s not forget the huge win it would toss to Trump who can crow about how he called it years ago and (whoever the new nominee is) stood by Biden throughout. I’m not going to pretend Joe is ideal or in his prime, but he’s the best chance to beat Trump unless Michelle O does a complete 180.

sticking with Biden is the obvious correct choice until and unless Biden decides otherwise, and anyone who suggests otherwise is either dishonest, an idiot, or a handmaiden of fascism.

Yes, to be clear, the shame bit was a joke. But it’s so incredibly stupid. It’s actually dumber than “cash me outside” which I thought was the dumbest thing I’d ever go viral.

Or Biden starts running against the media, which has been such a successful strategy for Republicans even though the media helps them out by going out of their way to prove they have no liberal bias. Everyone hates media elites. Go after them!

Without looking at mens rea, you’re effectively presuming an innocent intent for any action, and virtually nothing in criminal law has strict liability (ie liability irrespective of intent). The only thing that jumps to mind are status crimes, like illegal immigration.

The idea of not looking to motive isntithetical to the most basic principles of criminal law, which require both an actus reus (act) and a mens rea (state of mind) to constitute a crime. For example, it can be perfectly legal to buy a cop a cup of coffee but not if you’re trying to bribe them.

It’s a description of every good President in history. The only ones who don’t get exhausted and beat up by the job are the W Bushes and Trumps who sleep through most of the job.

Read the Times story about Biden. They say he seems more visibly exhausted and physically frail than years ago, confuses names more. No real accusation of mental problems. Includes an anecdote of Biden yelling at Netanyahu. Sources speculate his schedule is too demanding relative to his age.

At what point in history were the people rolling back human rights ever the good guys? I don’t get how this doesn’t land. There’s never been a time people have been, like, “wow, thank god we interned the Japanese…” or something.

I’m forever in his debt for scoring me the actual JFK autopsy photos. Years later, I would write my honors thesis on Kennedy’s assassination and those pics played a big part. (Oswald did it, he did it alone, there is statistically a 0.0% chance of a conspiracy, Oliver Stone is an asshole)

Let me just say that, as a nerd in junior high, not being able to go to the library and hang out with the in-retrospect-maybe-a-little-sketchy middle aged librarian would have cost me my only friend. These people are literally banning books. This was a joke 20 years ago and it’s real life now.

I think a reason so many people like to play social scientist (or actual scientist) on social media is because it’s the only place people are information-hungry enough to listen to a completely unqualified person hold forth on critical issues. For example, I have no idea what I’m talking about here.

Bluesky/Twitter can feel like a sample of the population at large, but it’s closer to 10% the last time I checked. Even Facebook is just a slice of the overall population. But if you’re embedded in that ecosystem, it feels like the whole world.

Of course, there are people on social media who are upset that Biden didn’t order a missile strike on Alito’s summer house tonight, but that was exactly the speech he needed to give after the debate and the decision today. Sane people will decide this election. Then, we strike Alito’s summer house.

It’s really crazy that instead of just saying “you know what, I said something that a lot of smart people who I admire detested. I’m not big enough to apologize but I won’t ever say it in public again” she went with “you think that’s offensive? Hold my bepenised beer.”

I’m going to blow your minds. You don’t even need impeachment and its supermajority requirement to remove a SCOTUS justice. You can remove them for bad behavior with a simple majority vote. It’s never been tested in court, but Chief Justice Rehnquist was among many who said it could be done.
