ah yes, what is worse? passing a law through congress to add more seats to the supreme court — as per congress’ explicitly stated constitutional authority — or a violent coup to overturn the constitutional order?

Questions in the "debate" last night included "how will you enact mass deportation?" and "will you accept the results of a fair election?" and then everyone goes back to their networks and the discourse isn't "holy fucking shit, what the fuck" but "who popped?"

this reminds me of when someone asked Idris Elba at the height of the MeToo movement if he thought the climate was suddenly more scary for men and his answer was basically like “well, for men who are predators, yeah”

he himself was like “this is good shit, bring it”
fact checking is only an issue if u are a fuckin liar

people (on here) yelled at me about this when i said it before but a) you need traffic enforcement and b) speed cameras are vastly preferable to cops.
“…when speed cameras are doing the ticketing, the proportion of tickets issued to Black and white drivers aligns closely with their respective share of roadway users. With human enforcement, in contrast, police officers stop Black drivers at a rate that far outstrips their presence on the road.”
Police stop more Black drivers, while speed cameras issue unbiased tickets − new study from Chicago
‘Driving while Black’: Researchers found that Black drivers make up 70% of police traffic stops on roads where only half the drivers are Black.
