I just realized that we sometimes call highways "freeways" because they don't have tolls. So they are the "free way" to get somewhere.

I've really disliked Biden's (And Obama's I guess) response to the war in Ukraine. I'm glad for what he has been doing, but the US support should have been full throttle from day one.
Guys like Putin and Trump only understand and respect strength.

OK, obviously thank you to Biden's administration. Very much long awaited and needed help.
But fucking hell... We got fed de-escalation nonsense and no can't dos for more than a year.
Just for them to speed run it now before Trump gets into the office. Wild world.

I want everyone to remember this betrayal. At a time when we needed them most, at the threshold of a fascist like Trump taking office, when the chips were down and the left needed their alt-media powerhouses, @theyoungturks.bsky.social bowed their heads to MAGA, Peter Thiel, and Elon Musk.

What's weird is there are people who actually like him for it. They literally like having a total clown in office.
it's important to keep in mind as Trump talks about annexing Canada or whatever the ridiculousness du jour is that he says all sorts of crazy shit all the time and almost none of it actually ends up happening.

A key asymmetry of this era of American politics and how it’s covered is that Trump is expected to do bad and corrupt things, so when he does it barely qualifies as news. But Dems are expected to be beyond reproach, so anything that seems even slightly suspect is a huge scandal.

Start taking pictures of the prices when you go into the store. Use it as evidence in the coming years when talking to Trumpers
