Came here to say the same thing. Unless he completely changes behind closed doors and occasionally sounds competent.

That season is so good and the intro song slaps hard. I was gobsmacked how overwhelmingly criminal the Iraq War appears when the publicly available info is crafted into a single narrative.

If he had no foreknowledge of the topics that was incredibly impressive and his mind is quicksilver. If he knew the questions then it was still incredibly impressive and he's sharp as a tack.

How fun would a debate be if both candidates could talk like this???

if Teen Vogue as we know it dies today, I hope its team know in their hearts that they did more to champion democracy and freedom of speech and to mobilize citizens of all ages toward progressive causes than all the pundits at legacy outlets who sneered at the notion of wanting teens to be informed

I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day.

certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

Yes. It feels like they are tightening all the screws they can, hoping for the inevitable backlash in time to declare martial law before the midterms.

their plainly stated goal is to starve forty million people until they get what they want, which is to rip health care away from millions more

that this is too monstrous for most news organizations to tell the truth about does not change the facts

The USDA sent an email to grocery stores telling them they are prohibited from offering special discounts to customers affected by the SNAP funding lapse.
I'm aware of at least 2 stores that had offered struggling customers a discount, then withdrew it after receiving this email

The amount of bandwidth wasted on this guy is ridiculous. There's been like 4,000 impeachable offenses in the last week that combined got less coverage and consideration than this one random dude.

Sounds like fun! We used to let our daughter pull out all the pots and pans or scatter an entire box of Ziploc bags around while exploring. Only intervened if something was dangerous and when she got to the age where kids start really wrecking stuff... she was already over it. Good on you, man.

Not sure if apple has a corollary but OnePlus android phones have a Zen mode that locks the phone except for camera, calculator, white noise generator, and phone calls. It's cool in that no amount of rebooting or anything can shut it off. You just have to wait for the timer you set to run out.

Ack, it is incredibly bleak that the road to hell may be paved on the backs of people so traumatized that the attention of bullies feels like acceptance.

Chris Murphy: "This is a country that's falling apart because Trump is in the middle of an authoritarian takeover. We're not on the verge of an authoritarian takeover. We're in the middle of it ... I have no moral obligation to vote for a budget that literally funds the destruction of our democracy"
