What's all the fuss? Surely the President's signature Bipartisan Infrastructure Bill means Republicans are good-faith participants in our beloved democracy*.

Our house is thrown into chaos as the DVR deleted our Antiques Roadshow hoard. If you didn't know I'm 44, now you do.

Republicans: here is our plan which we will carefully execute over the next forty years until we have gained control of SCOTUS Dems: If we can't pass it next week under the current Congress it's not worth mentioning

Do not expose me to anyone involved in The Lincoln Project. They're jealous little barnacles clinging to progressive causes because they're mad at Trump for whammying their entire party. They want the same things as his people do, they just plan on being a bit more couth.

Trump dying (natural causes, no incitement!) would solve a lot of problems, be very funny, and absolutely no one would be sad.

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?

The Supreme Court sure is a collection of lifetime appointees. That's what it is, that's what you can say about them. They are appointed for life and they make the lives of everyone else worse all the time, except for the lives of the worst and most powerful people in the country. That's them.

We have to let this court dismantle the country for a generation. The options to fix it beyond "Mebbe they'll die?" are considered unserious by brilliant minds like Dick Durbin.

The dew point, not the humidity %, or wet bulb nerd shit will let you know how miserable it feels. Any dew point over 65°F/19°C feels like shit, even if the temp isn't that high.

National news coverage of gender-affirming surgeries for trans youth strikes me as the same as national coverage of "late term" abortions: it takes a vanishingly small number of events, frames them as irresponsible, and elevates to national concern what are ultimately specific cases with clear need.
