Donald doesn’t see this extravagance as just a ballroom; he sees it as a monument to his gilded glory. So, of course, the vain narcissist is going to prioritize it getting built over you staying alive.

It’s useful to think of Christian Nationalism as a subculture like any other, with one important difference. THIS subculture thinks of itself as the default “normal” culture of “real Americans,” but which is also under siege by “the dominant culture.”

Amanda Marcotte @amandamarcotte.bsky.social · 7d

That's part of why I wrote this. It's important to understand that MAGA is not "real" America.

On the contrary, the reason they're all so fucking bitter is they know most people aren't like them. And they resent that.

MAGA can't expand its base — and Christian music tells us why

A free and democratic society cannot silence comedians because the President doesn’t like what they say.

This is an attack on free speech and cannot be allowed to stand.

All elected officials need to speak up and push back on this undemocratic act.

A “response” to their Supreme Court issuing a ruling after due process. It isn’t enough that have destroyed the integrity of our Supreme Court. Now they arrogate to themselves the power to demand that the high court in other nations subvert the rule of law as well.

This is insane.

I took my walking walk to the shops with Roll For Origin's episode about Champions, which made me think about the appeal of this point-building trad game monster. I talk about Masks being one of the few RPGs to actually understand the superhero genre. Champions appeal is that it really doesn't.
