I don't think the run times are what bothers him...
Guillotine Paradox: while the murder of a select few individuals would likely lead to positive change, you do not want to live in a world where positive change is predicated on selective murder.
The dog whistle is now a siren.
Hopefully they never figure out how to respect and elevate their NCO corps. If they did. it'd all be over. Same with Russia.

@neguse.house.gov gives a lesson on how to reframe a journalist’s stupid question about #SNAP! 💪🏼
If Novo Nordisk is dumping staff, it's pure greed.
Peggy Noonan can step on a lego.
Tin foil hat time: I think ending SNAP benefits, increasing healthcare costs, and a gov't shutdown with missed paychecks are all intentional. These, along with an increasingly aggressive policing posture, are intended to create civil unrest.

Their cruelty and desire for power know no bounds.
Jesus Christ, read the fucking room.
There is a legal case that I am actually a space caterpillar—but it is strewn with obstacles.

In my naïveté, I never thought the Economists would become outright bootlickers, but here we are. Shame on you.
Where's our Zhang Fei, Guan Yu, and Liu Bei?
How is this not an SNL skit yet, where the reporters report the sky is blue, water is wet, and Johnson just denies it all.
Q: What's your reaction to yesterday's purge of senior ICE officials? When is it time for Congress to do some oversight?

MIKE JOHNSON: I don't know any of the details of that yet. I just heard about that, literally I was walking in.

Elites do not care about “democracy” except inasmuch as they support any system of social organization in which they personally are elites. Now that they’ve figured out they can maintain their elevated status without democracy, they will all shrug and go about their frictionless lives.

The "Gov't is bad, actually" libertarians are so quiet such that we never need to hear from them again.
Even after thousands of years, the knapping skill presented is exquisite.
There is no backlash within MAGA. They'll never turn on him. Only when he's gone will the spell be broken.
Huge swaths of the financial markets are predicated on high-risk, non productive trading that creates no innovation or value. Millions are gambled without ever a service provided or product created. It's pure madness.

ordinary americans are filming ice agents and trying to save their neighbors. for all the hemming and hawing during 2024 about how democracy was an elite concern, the elites gave up far more quickly than average people.
