Kind of messed up that canes are the only item for disabled people they put swords inside. They should put swords in closed captioning devices. They should put swords in seeing eye dogs

"the media just wants STUNTS!!!!!" sounds like the president should do some fucking stunts then! anything other than 'sit around moping' and 'release extremely low energy letters that also promise to do nothing and just ask people to vote harder for you whenever SCOTUS does bullshit'

you can't fucking drive a news cycle about the courts when everybody from dick durbin to joe biden himself agrees that the only possible response they can make to SCOTUS is basically a form response with all the energy of an HR rep saying "we are taking these concerns very seriously."

clinton was getting his ass kicked by limbaugh just on *talk radio* before fox news *existed*. the most powerful people in the dem party's response to media as an issue has been "vote to make it extremely easy for billionaires to buy up all the radio, tv, news, internet" and "mope about it".

as always, the obama '08 campaign is the key thing i point to when people talk about how Unfair the media is. it was extremely unfair how the GOP, the media, and hillary clinton herself were extremely racist to him. if his media strategy was 'mope about shit being unfair', probably would've lost.

feels like part of the longstanding trend of "complain about the media, but never do anything about it other than Hope They're Nice To Us" from democrats is that a lot of 'em find the shittiness of the media convenient when they want to knife somebody else in the party

“…past predictions of global warming have proved largely correct. To persist with scepticism is immoral and stupid. Even a free-market fanatic cannot deny that environmental externalities are a form of market failure. Climate is the biggest externality of all.”

It's not "just gender dysphoria" actually to recognize that I'm too fat and too ugly to ever be a pretty girl and I'll never pass and that that's a literal fucking safety issue actually

Forensics is cop shit and thus mostly lies like all cop shit. The amount of absolute vibes-based bullshit that's been presented as "science" in a court of law would shock the conscience of Satan herself.

If you cannot clearly identify enemies, as neither of these parties can, you will be manipulated by someone else who does.
