How do I pin someone else's skeet?

A famous Klingon once said, "We are what we pretend to be, so we must be careful about what we pretend to be." Cruelty in jest is still cruelty. Bigotry as irony is still bigotry. Do not pretend to be that which you do not want to be.

JD Vance has the face of a guy that NEEDS to grow a beard. He grew that shit out because he knew it'd help him look a little butch and manly. Honestly I wasn't sure if he could grow facial hair because he looks like a newsie. He has newsie face. A hotel doorman should be shooing him away.

One of my hobby horses. On election night 2008 as Democrats took back both chambers of Congress and Obama crushed John McCain, John King got on CNN to proclaim that this "proved" people wanted bipartisanship and for the Democrats to work with Republicans.

The song ALWAYS remains the same.

Michael Hobbes @michaelhobbes.bsky.social · 14h

I will never understand the pundit obsession with getting Democrats to solve "political division."

Not only is this what they're already doing, but Klein admits that Republicans will never do the same. So elections will remain constant GOP smears and simping Democratic promises of bipartisanship.

Ezra Klein

This Is the Way You Beat Trump — and Trumpism

I saw a poll a few weeks ago that struck me. It was from The New York Times and Siena University. It asked Americans what they thought the top problem facing the country was. No. 1 was the economy. That was what I expected. But No. 2 wasn’t immigration or inflation or democracy or climate change or even Trump. It was political division. In that same poll, 64 percent of the country said we’re too divided to solve our problems. They’re not wrong.

I hear it when Trump says, “I hate my opponent and I don’t want the best for them.” When I hear that, I hear something scary, but I also hear an opening, an opportunity: In the end, most Americans want America to work. They know we disagree with one another. They don’t want us to hate one another.

again man these people don't like trump because they have similar aesthetic tastes

they want to see certain people hurt

he promises to hurt those people

Jakub Jaraczewski @jakubjaraczewski.bsky.social · 1d

The educated liberal big city US folks outraged at Trump's renovation of Lincoln bathroom really need to scroll some Facebook of their less established relatives and friends to see what kind of aesthetic resonates with Trump's target audience.

DHS document states ICE will NOT let people decline from being scanned by its new facial recognition app - Mobile Fortify.

It is used to verify one’s identity and immigration status. However, the face photos taken will be stored for 15 years, regardless of your immigration status.

Douthat writes that 2024, when Harris lost by 1.5% of the popular vote, was "an ideological referendum and progressivism lost." I wonder why he didn't view the 2020 election, when Trump lost by 4.5% of the popular vote, as a far more significant loss for conservatism.

Comparing the relation between the presidential election results in 2020 and 2024 with the post-election commentary is a fascinating exercise.

2020
Biden 81,283,501 popular votes, 51.3%
Trump 74,223,975 popular votes 46.8%

2024
Trump 77,302,580 49.8%
Harris 75,017,613. 48.3%
