The discourse around biden needing more sleep is fully insane. Does no one remember "Executive Time," the thing Trump spent the majority(!) of his schedule on where he would just watch TV and tweet? Dude was categorically unable to fulfill any of the demands of the office and the press barely cared

The world doesn't lack for Cthulhu Mythos anthologies. That said, if I were a publisher with the money to pay writers what they're worth and produce the books I'd want to read, there are a few anthologies I'd love to see. So here are my top 5 hypothetical Mythos anthologies.

The other thing is that it’s so lawless a decision that it cannot be respected as precedent. It feels like a Supreme Court that succeeds this one should ignore its rule against advisory opinions to immediately overturn this one without waiting for a case to come up to do it.

Republicans do not understand the power they're playing with they imagine that there's going to be a total constitutional rupture that leaves them in charge and then after they'll add a "no take backs" clause to the constitution what we libs are waking up to is: two can play this game.

fundamentally being in the majority on Trump v US is immediately disqualifying for a supreme court justice. it declares yourself in opposition to the foundations of the American project of democracy and limited government. all six of them must be impeached and replaced.

If you’re going to argue about the execution of America as an idea, then you aren’t understanding the power of internal mythology and you’re part of why conservatives can keep claiming it. The point is the promise of America, and the discussion should be how we can better live up to the promise.

Not to be corny but I do think the ongoing aspiration to make America a pluralist democracy of equals is righteous, beautiful, and worth honoring, even if it has more often been the struggle of minorities & dissenters than the policy of the government. 🇺🇸

the trick about building power to resist these guys is that you have to recognize both that the normal forms and orders of american law are malleable and contingent, and yet also any power-building you do is going to have to take advantage of those forms and orders

want to co-sign this one especially. people talk about the dynamics of social media like people haven't been believing crazy shit since forever. satanic panic. blood libel. witch burnings. take your pick. the medium is new and important to understand, but the fundamentals less so.

You’re never going to be able to understand modern politics until you stop ignoring the role that the medium of communication plays. People today spend truly massive amounts of time immersed in various forms of media - mostly online! The narratives and dynamics of this media shapes their world.
