I do tabletop rpg stuff and teach upper elementary.
Read several headlines this morning about Democrats being anxious about their crushing defeats in 2020, but not a single one about Republicans being anxious about their crushing defeat like two weeks ago.

I've been posting too many silly things lately, so I'll post something more serious, solemn, and somber: Trump's eyes look like hemorrhoids.

Chump's out here sending masked randos to kidnap innocent people off the street, blowing up innocent people in boats, and claiming he's ending wars and making groceries and other goods cheaper...right before Thanksgiving and Christmas, and people still think he cares about objective reality.

It's 2025 and there is a Clinton blow job scandal. Did the writers go on strike? Are we doomed to live in Boomer nostalgia clip shows for eternity?

My mom takes a diabetes drug called Mounjaro, which really sounds like it should be the name of a board game that you get sucked into if you lose a hand. My daughter called it Manjuro, which sounds like a manga about a town where everyone's terrified of, like, rhombuses.

Joyce Carol Oates=1, Elon Musk=0
Found the tweet that Joyce Carol Oates bodied Elon Musk with and it's so beautiful in its eloquent, simple take down. So much so he's crashing out trying to prove he reads books now. Put this in the Louvre.

"Trump is standing up for the little guy against the elites, And by little guy, we mean the Supreme Court, and the elites, we mean people who qualify for food stamps."

Imagine spending more money to unsuccessfully stop a tax increase than paying actual taxes.

Marjorie Taylor greene is doing exactly the thing Trump did to gain power: attack a now-unpopular republicans from the center to establish his “independent” bona fides. She smells blood in the water.

The funniest thing I've ever seen and the maddest Trump have ever been was when Hillary Clinton called him Putin's puppet. Call this assclown a puppet of Steven Miller and JD Vance and watch him shit a brick.

basically every 2024 truism is dead. Trump did not build a lasting multiracial coalition or turn young men into committed Republicans. You don’t need to cave on trans rights to win. The pundits have nothing left to tell you.

The biggest misstep the right wing took in recent years was in over using the word socialism u til it stopped being scary and in many ways sounds reasonable.

this is such a great encapsulation of why this race feels existential even to people outside NYC. Cuomo as the final boss of everything wrong with the current Democratic Party, Mamdani happily grabbing the third rails everyone’s told are too dangerous to touch (trans people, Muslims, socialism)
It's uncanny how Cuomo has been laser-focused at appealing to the absolute worst qualities in people - their insularity, their tribalism, and now their fear. A campaign monumental in its cynicism, a colossal bet by this man and his billionaire backers that people are basically bad.
This isn't a closing election argument, it's Vidkun Quisling explaining why surrender is better than resistance.

You, smart: People need to read more history and learn from past mistakes

Me, dumb but reading history: Uh, rich people have the memories of goldfish and the survival instincts of zoo pandas. I'll pencil in this same conversation for in a few years.

Everyone who grew up in the 80's and had any exposure at all to pop culture has been brined in a solution of "Public sector Bad, private sector Good, cops/military Good Guys" that primes them to be amenable to "Eliminating Government Waste" being obviously a step in the right direction.

Derek Guy never misses.
JD Vance claims that diversity weakens unions, as people end up distrusting each other and not organizing.

Let me tell you two menswear stories related to this claim. 🧵

I am actually very interested in redemption arcs, I just think if you have been the kind of guy who would get a Nazi tattoo (even unwittingly), redemption involves relinquishing ambition for positions of power, not getting elected to the fucking Senate.
