I've been thinking these days about everyone who was warning FOR LITERAL DECADES about how the GOP were taking every opportunity to push judges on to the courts - not just the supremes, all of them - and delaying democratic picks and how that would matter. and it does.

Not the most terrifying thing but perhaps the most infuriating: every single thing we said about these fascist Republican fucks has been proved out and all the people who assured us that what is happening would never happen smoothly pivoted to yes it's happening but it will be fine.

Reminder that there are five ways to address the current SCOTUS problem. 1. Impeach some justices 2. Impose term limits 3. Expand the courts 4. Pass legislation limiting court prerogatives 5. Keep winning the presidency for the next 16 years or so while periodically also holding the senate.

Keeping Trump out of the White House isn’t the only thing that needs doing and it isn’t enough to solve all problems facing the country & world but if it isn’t done then all those problems get exponentially worse in ways I don’t even know how to express and it scares me when people pretend otherwise

I kinda feel like now that the Supreme Court has declared it legal for a president to straight-up murder people they don't like, it's probably even more important to not elect people who seem extremely inclined to murder people they don't like

Yeah it’s not like we’ll see a repeat of 1968, when the Democrats downshifted to a Vice President at a convention in Chicago that was plagued by protests against the party’s support for an unpopular foreign war and wound up creating an opening for a candidate they’d beat before. Totally different!

Nobody loves that Joe Biden is 81. It would be great if he was 35. But you know what I really dislike? Authoritarianism. So I humbly beseech people to get a goddamn grip.

I trust Brits thinking 'it's a foregone conclusion so why bother to vote' are watching events in France and the US. It is *never* a foregone conclusion and you *always* have to vote against the bad people because they will sure as shit vote against you.

The thing I can't stop thinking about is this: I'm 48, and in my adult lifetime there has been one Republican who won the popular vote. But I will probably spend the rest of my life under the authority of a Supreme Court dominated by hard right conservatives. How is that democracy?

Coincidentally, I read The Call of Chthulu for the first time yesterday. That story, (and HP Lovecraft) was absolutely racist AF. But also compelling and imaginative. It's a tragic convergence. I hadn't realized the story itself would be filled with so much racist language tbh 😬😬

If ur saying Biden is unfit for office because he's showing decrements of aging, but you're not saying Trump is unfit bc he's a convicted felon & national security threat w/BPD, psychopathy, ADHD & showing significant symptoms of dementia, you're a hypocrite, an intellectual fraud & a moral failure.
