I just read an article that said "Why is it taking so long for your favorite movies and tv series to air? Blame the writers and actor strikes" No I won't. I'm blaming that â¨single⨠motherfucker at the studio who makes $250 million dollars a year who's one job is supposed to make this shit happen.

Well, I also think people really like that idea of meritocracy when it means history suggests people like them have more merit than everybody else. Overrepresentation in elite spaces becomes evidence of superiority. Itâs hard to convince them to give that up.

Right-wingers have been trying to rewrite the truth of Trump's 2017 "very fine people remarks", oftentimes blaming a lAcK oF cOnTeXt from the left.
So I decided to solve that problem.
Here's a half-hour video that goes through Trump's *entire* press conference... for context: youtu.be/0-684oJSbus

Americans are extremely weird people, bruh. They'll tell you to be super scared of project 2025, but treat politics like it's some sorta entertainment or avenue for generating profit. CNN hosted a presidential debate where they didn't fact check the candidates. I repeat: THEY DIDN'T FACT CHECK THEM!

North Carolina, please remember that the only reason NC State House Republicans have their single vote supermajority is because Tricia Cotham lied to her constituents and flipped parties the first chance she got. If you're in her district, vote for her challenger, Nicole Sidman.

Donât believe âalarmistâ lefties like me? Fair enough! But you should believe these rightwing leaders when they tell us that they aggressively reject the idea of a pluralistic democratic society and will use government as an authoritarian tool against it.

A reminder for non-academics that if you ever can't find access to an academic's paper or article, you should feel free and encouraged to reach out to them to ask for a pre-print version. They will not think of it as an imposition; they will, in fact, be EXTREMELY gratified by your interest.

We have to boil our tap water before we use it for several days at a time, several times a year, minimally. If this is news to you, itâs time to start paying closer attention to how conservative politics are entrenched and spreading. We are not âredâ - we are voter suppressed.

UNC Asheville is going to close its drama, philosophy, religious studies, French, and German depts because financial consultants recommend this. These consultants only count the number of majors, not the number who take and are influenced by courses from depts other than their major. Shame!

Barstoolâs recent fandom of Caitlin Clark is reminiscent of searching for a Great White Hope in menâs boxing. It also reveals an intense misogynoir and even latent homophobia in their persistent & purposeful erasure of all other great WNBA players and their refusal to learn about them & the league
