Party leaders get promotions after their parties win. But the truth is the skills that make a good legislator are different from the skills that make a good strategist or opposition figure. Elevating Jeffries for being there amid a Trump backlash is...questionable. www.offmessage.net/p/crisis-of-...

Just so I'm clear on this, computer memory has tripled in price because a bunch of it that hasn't been produced yet has been ordered to populate GPUs that aren't installed in data centers that aren't built yet in order to service a demand that doesn't exist to make profits that don't happen.

I suppose that’s the best thing about his legacy, there’s an eternal quality. There’s a movie that can be iconic to you as a kid and then another movie will become iconic to you as you age and then another when you’re an adult and they might all be Reiner movies of completely different genres

The caveat here is that this poll surveyed registered voters. The poorest Americans have the lowest voting rates. So this is presumably an undercount of the real problem, even it much of the data is still shocking.

People with disposable income don't need to adjust their spending in any serious way
How can it be only 64% buying less/cheaper to save money? It’s just simple facts: grocery prices continue to rise while our paychecks haven’t grown at the same rate. You can’t get blood from a stone.

Okay gang, The Onion is 80 sign-ups away from our 60,000th print subscriber.

This would put us in contention for the Top 10 most circulated newspapers in the U.S.

So! We're giving our 60,000th subscriber a mystery box by our archivist as a nice lil thank you.

Also every time an editor is like "oh we covered that back in 2010"

...people aren't reading science articles from 2010!

I'm STILL telling people weekly that face mites actually have anuses.
I was just chatting with an extremely intelligent and educated master's student who admitted he had no idea how insects reproduced or if jellyfish were considered animals. And it was a good reminder for me that huge segments of the population do not know all the things, but they want to. 🧪

This is a really terrible answer, to be honest. On par, but really fucking bad. "Taking rights away"? "It's not bigoted?" The only people who've suffered their rights being taken away in California under Newsom are the trans kids he's pretending to care about.

Hyper political, super online people like you and I can read this and spot the bullshit immediately. Hey, this isn’t what the left is! Your average Atlantic reader, though, what context are they supposed to have for any of this.

It felt like the most dystopian late stage capitalist bullshit ever. The DPRK tech workers aren't even doing good work, they're working like 10+ jobs each. It's essentially just an insanely inefficient wealth redistribution, which only works because the US won't tax these stupid tech companies. 5/5

There really needs to be a study done on the sort of people who are incapable of understanding why someone would be angry at foreign occupation and military rule and displacement. You did this to them and now you're acting like the victim. Fuck off.

wow, it's the Iraq AUMF debacle all over again, only with transgender people in the crosshairs instead of Iraqis. Back then, Dems assured us they were taking our concerns seriously and supported republicans anyway.

Same playbook, same Dem excuses, and innocent people will die because of it
Just heard disappointing news that @warren.senate.gov will co-sponsor the Kids Online Safety Act again despite overwhelming opposition from LGBTQ, human rights, abortion rights, and racial justice groups.

This is a horrific betrayal of her constituents, particularly trans youth and their families.

BlueMAGA: "If you don't like what Dems are offering then don't vote!"

also BlueMAGA: "Fuck you non-voters, Kamala Harris would be president by now if you had voted for Dems you don't like"
A "blue fascist"? The democrats are NOT the lock-step monolith e.g. GOP. And they will never be because the Dem tent covers EVERYONE. Even you. If you don't like picking between the lesser-of-two-evils then don't vote. Go find that rare bird who can model perfection for every situation. Good luck.

it is always very strange to me when someone claiming Jewish heritage tries to drive traffic to their substack page. I joke all the time we are living in our own parody world, so I think this is the part of the timeline where we see Krusty the Klown's "dump truck full of money" scene play out

One senior ICC expert also ruled out that ICC judges would accept Israel’s challenge to ICC jurisdiction.

"Israel is more likely to uphold the ceasefire than the Appeals Chamber is to invalidate the arrest warrants," the expert said, sarcastically.

yes you should be mad at democrats voting to confirm a fascist's choice to pervert the courts. how is this controversial?
The Senate Republicans can confirm Eric Trump’s horse to the bench of they want to, but it’s important to find some reason to be mad at Democrats about this
If the Supreme Court makes you mad keep in mind that within the last week Democratic senators have been voting for GOP judges to get on the federal bench
