If I just think a little harder and was less lazy I could create a work of art that would achieve total self-realization and also defeat all my political enemies

People in the administration have done TONS of shit like this. I’d really like to see a comprehensive report on all of it—pictures removed, or altered, buildings renamed, all of the hamfisted attempt to rewrite the history these institutions tell themselves

This is gambling, and we've essentially decided that it's okay to let it go on entirely unregulated for ??? Reasons.

Thinking about how my brother has a boyfriend and my sister said she's probably a lesbian. I'm the last great transsexual hope for heterosexuality in this fucking family ...

Folks, Zohran Mamdani—smart guy, reminds me of a young me—you know what he said, I told him, “Zohran, I’m gonna do it, I’m gonna say the shahada,” and he said to me “Mr. President, you should say a third line confirming your belief in the wilayat of Ali,” should we do it folks? Should we say it?

it's so goddamn funny, despite all the trotsky quoting and raging, i'm just a mixed economy guy at the end of the day. the basic reality, however, is that you cannot trust the dem party leadership to not stab your child while you're sleeping if it means winning over one rural republican.

They call him ALI—great Caliph, the Trump of Arabia, should have been Caliph after Muhammad but Sleepy Abu Bakr stole it from him—but the WOKE want to erase him like all our great leaders, which is why I am signing an Executive Order saying all mosques must mention Ali in the Adhan! TYFYATTM!
Trump in a room with a very charismatic person results in like half a day of Trump agreeing with everything that person said, so this has the potential to be very, very funny.

It's been kind of memory holed, but Me Too started out with a lot of support from Republicans, who viewed it as an expose of liberal hypocrisy (Harvey Weinstein was a big Democratic donor) and then jumped off board once they realized many liberals were happy cleaning house

It all comes back to John Roberts btw. Every single bit of rot in our society comes from the Supreme Court (and the constitution, more generally)
The Athletic polled hundreds of players from across the NBA, NFL, MLB and NHL about their opinions surrounding how sports betting impacts players — the responses were haunting.

Don't want to unfairly dunk on this guy, because pro-Eisenhower propaganda has convinced people that he was George McGovern with an R next to his name, but Eisenhower was an awful President for anyone who considers themselves a friend of progress, and in this thread, I'll cover why. 🧵

Most people couldn't read during this period! Russian serfs weren't reading. Colonized peoples weren't reading.

Everything Donald Trump is doing to Americans and in America was pioneered by Dick Cheney on foreigners and abroad. He threw the imperial boomerang
Neo-conservativism presaged Trumpian neo-fascism in several respects. It saw violence as a positive policy option not a defensive last resort. It held laws, norms and the lives of non-white people in total contempt. And many, many centrists either cringed in deference to it or actively collaborated.
