don't call me big daddy i am working on my weight as best i am able to do so but last week carol brought in those pastries to work and your dinners are so delicious i overeat baby so just call me by my first name when you back that azz up
you a pretty fine woman better make sure you drink enough water, get enough sleep and remember to stretch for longer periods than you used to before engaging in vigorous backing that azz up
-Yet when we came back, late, from the Hyacinth garden,
Your arms full, and your hair wet, I could not
Speak, and my eyes failed, I was neither
Living nor dead, and I knew nothing,
Looking into the heart of light, the silence.

it's a relatively straightforward answer, imo.
They equate "strength" with "being a bully" with no conception that there could be a different definition.

Its wild to say this sort of shit about Democrats when the current Republican/MAGA political project is built around cultural supremacist crusade that centers openly trying to destroy the lives of anyone who doesnt sufficiently conform to it
California Governor Gavin Newsom said on Thursday that the Democratic Party needed to be “more culturally normal” and “less judgmental.”

This continues to be why I will never give full legitimacy to the "gerontocracy" arguments. The way that Trump is currently being treated by news media makes it exceptionally clear that their main beef with Biden was him being Biden—not his age, physical/mental health, or fitness for the job.
It really is amazing that the president has a noticeable an unexplained physical ailment that is disfiguring his right hand and there's no reporting about it. The White House's line is that it's from Trump shaking too many hands! Something is clearly being covered up.

This summer I took a vacation across five eastern/central European countries that all have significantly smaller citizenries now than they did 35 years ago and let me tell you, Americans simply have no conception of how bleak it is to live in a shrinking country.
I cannot imagine the brain that believes their own citizenship is cheapened by the growth of the American citizenry.

I don't understand why so many members of Congress think their job is to wait around for the party leader to come up with a brilliant plan and tell them when the vote is
The GOP is breaking apart from its inner contradictions. It hates the health care crisis but won't remedy it.
House Republicans are privately fuming at Speaker Mike Johnson over his failure to lead on issues such as the cost-of-living crisis and skyrocketing healthcare premiums, according to CNN.

Pretty notable, in my view, that Kagan points out the Supreme Court's pro-gerrymandering decision in Texas is a step-by-step instruction manual for states to draw discriminatory maps while ducking judicial review, and the majority has...nothing to say in response www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...
![Texas is not on “the eve of an election,” as was true in the
case the majority cites. Republican National Committee v.
Democratic National Committee, 589 U. S. 423, 424 (2020)
(per curiam); see ante, at 2. The election there was five days
after the injunction. Similarly, the election in Purcell was
“just weeks” away. 549 U. S., at 4. Here, Election Day is
eleven months from now. Even the primary election (which
Texas could change) is in March. The District Court care-
fully listed the various “election preparations” underway to
switch to the 2025 map. App. 144. On the other hand, the
court noted how the 2021 map—which the injunction rein-
stated—was, in a real sense, the status quo. See id., at 145.
Officials, candidates, and voters are all familiar with it from
the last two election cycles. Until late last summer, every-
one expected that map to govern 2026 too. And indeed, it
will be used in a special runoff election in the State’s largest
county on January 31, 2026. So, the District Court properly
concluded, “[a]n injunction in this case would not cause sig-
nificant disruption.” Id., at 144. Except to the extent all of
us live in election season all the time, the 2026 congres-
sional election is not well underway.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:bpna2qi2e44fafbhhtqjak3x/bafkreifzzrhpyftoam4b4eqcpdcegf2hksn4ula6rwbtv6fqwviqfgikte@jpeg)

what I find deeply idiotic is the idea that a state has a meaningful interest in the integrity of its congressional districts. I don't fucking care what the legislature wanted. the STATE OF TEXAS wouldn't suffer "irreparable harm" if its gerrymander wasn't used. what the fuck are you talking about.
