I feel like getting the dudes who demand government issued girlfriends out of the gene pool might be one of those problems that solves itself
📢 “A huge amount of men between the age of 15 and 50 will not pass on their genes. They will effectively die out of the gene pool ... Should society intervene?” Steven Bartlett asked last year.
Two top podcasters have identified a global decline. The problem, they say, is women

It really bums me out that Klobuchar, who was instrumental in normalizing Trump as just another political adversary, is almost certainly going to be the next governor of Minnesota, a state currently paying a severe price for that normalization of fascism.
Here's all the Klobuchar v. Republican matchups from that SurveyUSA poll
Best Klobuchar lead is +20, worst is +14

I continue to believe that the fastest way to get Stephen Miller fired is to convince Trump that Miller's ICE operations are what cost him the Nobel Peace Prize.

Garland has to be the worst decision Biden made in his life.
Now ain’t this something: Biden DOJ investigated Ilhan Omar, found nothing, & Trump is blabbing abt it to smear her. To be sure, no one is above law: if Omar were wrongdoer, it’s on her. But who was source of allegations? Let’s find out if this was Dem backstabbing.

I don’t know what there is to say. We are so stupid, so beyond the pale, and half of people here are checked out and have no idea what is happening.
It feels like you’re trapped in a room where you know CO is leaking in, and 30% people are freaking out, 30% are like “whatever,” and 30% support it.

After one year of Trump, Americans are worse off. His attacks on clean energy & handouts to Big Oil mean:
-Electric bills up 13%
-Natural gas bills up 60%
-165,000 clean energy jobs lost
-Renewable power for 13M homes killed
-30,000 lives/year at risk from gutted pollution rules

Ever seen a pink grasshopper? A genetic mutation called erythrism (overproduction of red pigment) leaves some individuals looking pretty in pink! Though these rare insects are beautiful, their vivid coloring makes hiding from predators more difficult.

The fact that Gavin Newsom is even talking to the likes of Shapiro is a sign that he’s a non-starter. I’ve never forgotten how Shapiro said that Trayvon Martin deserved to die. Not fucking ever.

Koh: Trump has now spent $30 billion from the last bill for 10,000 more I.C.E. Agents that are going to be on the streets. That $30 billion would cover all the ACA subsidies for a year. It would eliminate all co-pays for prescription drugs for people from a year, and eliminate all medical debt.
