The media narrative—and thus, the polls leading into Super Tuesday—shifted substantially after South Carolina’s primary. Voters there are free to vote their conscience any way they like, and that obviously meant Biden, but we’re also talking about a state that overwhelmingly elects Republicans regardless. Why should a

It shouldn’t even be about who is deserving or not deserving when it comes to monetary policy and taxation. Whether Elon Musk is a “good” billionaire or someone like Donald Trump is a “bad” billionaire is entirely irrelevant. I don’t particularly feel the need to confiscate all the wealth of the rich, but it is

The DNC strongly favored Biden from the start, and it’s all the more clear now when you consider that the delegate count between Biden and Sanders is not all that far apart. Now that their favored candidate finally had a good day, we’re all supposed to give up and just “accept the inevitability,” even though over half

Frankly, it would help greatly if the DNC was on the side of a candidate like Sanders and Warren, and it is clear that they are not. An overwhelming percentage of Democratic voters are, unsurprisingly, going to trust the Democratic Party when they throw their weight behind a candidate, whether that candidate is John

Democrats vote out of fear, which doesn’t go well for them. Meanwhile, can you think of the last time Republicans thought to themselves “let’s go safe this time”? These are the folks with grand plans to reshape America in their image (i.e., Newt Gingrich’s “Contract With America” in 1994 and their grand aspiration for

Bloomberg will not get the DNC nomination and he will likely be a pissy fuckface about it and run as an independent

Well, frankly, I think the Democratic Party would need to give them a reason to vote for Biden beyond mere threats. The party may instinctively want to swing right for the general election, but I think they already have that base covered.  It’s the left that isn’t convinced.

And, if so, it’ll be four more years of Trump. Honestly, Democrats are the absolute worst at choosing the “safe candidate” (see John Kerry in 2004 and Hillary Clinton in 2016). Bill Clinton and Barack Obama won on a combination of charisma and change.

The Master said he put all the time lord bodies on ice, and presumably, those Cyberlords were only a small number of them. Even with that last detonation, it could be argued that they were unaffected, because they were already dead, but, being on ice, they could be later revived. Also, considering the Master will

Republicans rail against big government, except when they don’t like shit, then it is legislate it away.

The thing is, they haven’t really “renounced” anything. Their HRH titles are just basically on pause, and I suppose that’s the sticking point: if they don’t really want to give up anything, they’re going to have to do things the royal family’s way.

Quite frankly, the Democratic Party has never nurtured “rising stars” the way the GOP does. I mean, Paul Ryan got to be Speaker of the House in his 40s. Meanwhile, Nancy Pelosi has had a stranglehold as (alternating) Speaker of the House and House Minority Leader for close to 20 years now. The DNC’s preferred

The fact that we’ve all prematurely declared a “winner” after two small state contests is very much by design. It’s what the DNC wants, so they don’t have to spend lots of money for a nationwide contest ahead of the general election, and the media is always happy to oblige.

Warren is facing a couple of major issues: the sheer passion of Bernie Sanders’ fan base, which has put a lot of pressure on progressive voters who might otherwise see Warren and Sanders as similar to consolidate around him, and now the “bomb” of Michael Bloomberg, who has effectively tanked the candidacies of

The Democratic establishment playbook can be reduced to upper middle class interests. When they talk about candidates like Bernie Sanders or Elizabeth Warren being “unelectable,” they’ll say things like “he/she doesn’t appeal to people of color like Biden,” but when people of color don’t “fall in line” like they

The show was explicitly designed to be secular, not favoring any particular religious viewpoint, so it sort of ruled out revealing “God” (or a “Master Architect”) or reincarnation, because that would endorse eastern religions. So I can’t help but think that, in an afterlife stripped of all spirituality, eternal

The show was created to be explicitly “secular” on the idea of the afterlife, not accepting or rejecting any particular religious viewpoint on it. So I figured that ruled out any concept of “God” (or a “Master Architect”), but also ruling out reincarnation, because that would favor eastern religions. All that being

As a thought experiment, I tend to think that, if an afterlife exists and it’s truly limitless, then I suspect “limits” like space and time no longer apply. The past and future are all compressed into “the present” and an incomprehensibly vast universe—and all planetary civilizations that ever existed and will ever

At some point, we, as a society, need to stop dancing around the fact that we need to make a massive investment in electricity. The whole system is antiquated and ill-suited for the future, let alone all the pollution from old fossil fuel plants.
