I'm not even joking; let's all just start ignoring what the Supreme Court says. It's like Freddy Krueger in that way: Its power comes directly from how much we believe in it.

i keep making this point but it'd be amusing if not for the stakes how the institutional ideology of every major news network/paper is its not their job to inform you, the reader, what is real or not beyond the authenticity of quotes they publish

when you first start observing democrats you wonder, “do these guys just enjoy losing?” but as you get older you realize it’s not your place to question your betters.
