What's "funny" is that this could be about either of them.

How long before the party tells us that the dementia actually helps with having the job, because there are fewer thoughts to distract from the complex problems, making things simpler for the position of commander-in-chief?

Actually, while "mansplain" is a portmanteau of "man" and "explain", it does not account for a man's pain (he refuses to see a doctor).

There was that German documentary about it with real footage from before it was demolished in 1994. Place didn't seem all bad, but there were some hallways and nooks that looked, uh, sketchy.

Oh, so the conservative Supreme Court is eyeing the overturn of the Obergefell v. Hodges decision that allows for gay marriage, but they ignore the part of "America the Beautiful" that talks about the "fruited plain". Curious.

The most important takeaway from this election is that this is the new normal now. Every presidential election from this point will involved a milquetoast, ineffectual Democrat running against a full-throated, unfiltered Fascist.

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 the debate started with a question about the problem of immigration, I was hollering, yelling, "what about wages and housing costs" and "the soaring price of health care in this uncaring empire" as Jake Tapper and Dana Bash looked at polls and nodded.

The only real mystery over the president's political future involves how much money he can bring in. If Biden cannot draw in significant fundraising, the Democratic party has little use for him.

Yes, yes, something about harm reduction and mitigating the damage to the important institutions to the republic, such that they are, and all that is important to keep in mind when voting, but can't we have a little fun as the empire spirals downward?

Star Trek, yes, you read right, would have had this be 22 episodes, and we would have had a historical back story for each person and creature's home planet; Mae and Osha would have been dramatically different (perhaps, we wouldn't even know they were twins until later episodes).

The Acolyte is bad because it is basically a poorly-written Star Trek series. The actors are good, the characters are mostly fine, it's the pacing and plot focus of the series that suffers.
