I vote this as the most sensibly titled article on Jezebel in the last 4ish years.

I won’t live in a country where abortion is illegal. I’m Salvadoran, and I’ve seen what happens when all abortion is illegal. Girls as young as you can imagine, raped, incest made to give birth. Women who miscarried thrown in jail on suspicion of inducing abortion. Of course the law is for the poor, the rich elite do…

There is one simple answer to this.  PACK THE COURT.

Oh, ok.

Trump isn’t that bright. He is going to push some Christian conservative dimwit 

PACK THE COURT

Simple: if they fill the seat and Democrats win the Senate back in November, they change the size of the court to 11 the instant Biden is sworn in. If Republicans are going to be this venal, that needs to be the threat.

Too bad they won’t do it.

THIS

We have entered worst-case scenario.

Goddammit.  Remember, when somebody facetiously asks if this year could get any worse, remind them the answer to that question is an unqualified yes.  RIP, Justice, nobody fought harder and earned that rest more than you.  

I am just going to say this but she should have retired in 2014 when the Dems still held the Senate and she knew she had end stage pancreatic cancer. She was an icon but that doesn’t mean she didn’t fuck us totally by not stepping down. 

I truly wish I could get on this ride with you, Ash, but we gotta be real here: in EA’s hands DA4 is going to be a dumpster fire as big as - if not worse than - Andromeda. There’s no reason to give them the benefit of the doubt that this isn’t going to be another MMO-like where you wander through huge empty maps doing…

“Trying to create this weird public discourse and use your arguably easily-influenced fan base to try and get what you want is...I mean, it’s on brand but it’s really gross.”

It's almost like we should bust up vertical and horizontal monopolies and duopolies! 

they are both making clicks happen. one is performing grief for an audience, the other is reporting on a public figure’s death.

Well, I think you basically answered your own question but to me the most telling scene SPOILER ALERT is Pa Kent dying to hammer his point that nothing is as important as staying on the sidelines no matter what.

Zach Snyder turned Superman into a libertarian and a murderer and dreams of adapting Ayn Rand’s The Fountainhead. I don’t think he’s the ally Ray Fisher thinks he is.

A few problems with that. I have no citizenship to the UK. I have an extreme dislike of monarchies. And it isn’t like the UK doesn’t have a history of equally shady shit.

I also live in the product of the trans Atlantic Slave Trade and the genocide of Native Americans. Doesn’t mean that I have to treat those involved as some kind of folk heros just like because I have benefited from those a couple hundred years later.

A podcast I was listening to the other day said something that shocked me because I had not realized it.
