The fact that Isaac Asimov used to shake the breasts of female fans as a greeting does not in any way affect the quality or content of his writing. If you base your reading lists on behavior of the authors, you don't take reading seriously.

Mayor Pete, and until he proved he had completely lost his shit, Beto. But really none of them. Beshear, Shapiro, Whitmer type of candidates. Zero.

Who gives a fuck about old and young? The Democratic party needs some 50 year "middle" olds with demonstrated skills and electability. No these people are not Kamala or Amy or Cory who are close but not quite and not serious.

Idk about most people but "speaking in complete sentences in response to something said recently" is not a sufficient bar for verbal acuity in my search for a president of the United States Just me though

If I'd realized Road House was a Liman movie I'd have watched it when it came out. That is some quality cinematic violence right there!

He did great, for Trump. Is that the coverage you mean? The left has complained he's full of shit for 8 years and the right loves it. It's the exact opposite of news. It might be worthwhile to look into the Epstein thing again although honestly I think Trump caught the bad vibe and stayed away.

The 2020 Democratic slate was horrible. I thought Mayor Pete was great but I don't think he really wants to be a politician. Meanwhile the rest, like, why are you people running? I don't want to sound like a jerk but they need a couple of 50 year old successful purple state governors.

Of course not it's ridiculous that he would go from not speaking to MBS to photo op just because money was involved

If you can't speak in well enunciated sentences that you make up in your own head on the spot, you shouldn't be president. I don't know why this is so hard to accept OR FERVENTLY DESIRE. We talk about Republicans racing for the bottom but this is being at the bottom already and circling the wagons.

In other news, Jason Statham, please do not become the replacement Steven Seagal. The Beekeeper, not a great career direction. Excessive violence needs some humor. Or something.

All the dramatic whining about how a couple of East Coast papers aren't being fair to Biden sounds suspiciously like Republicans complaining that Twitter wasn't nice enough to conspiracy theorists. Put your damn big boy pants on please.

The whole business of people trying to find increasingly sarcastic, oblique ways to say "NYT is trying to destroy Joe Biden" is boring and stupid and really repetitive. Aside from all that, if NYT can sink his campaign, it not only deserves but NEEDS to go down.
