So long as loan forgiveness is on the table, this is absolutely how it feels to pay off student loan debt.
Like performing a blood sacrifice every month to an angry God that the AOC Avengers might or might not be able to defeat.

I for one, welcome a copycat stream from Mitch McConnel, because watching him flail around mispronouncing terms and generally being unable to use a computer while trying to appeal to “the youth Conservative voter” would make SNL forever obsolete.
I think some of that is clear in the structure of the magic in LC.
It’s that “fear of entropy / power over life and death” language that is so antithetical to any spiritual truth or non-oppression based living that gives it away. And the purity of Hippolyta’s experience shows an alternative path to “naming magic.”

I simultaneously wish that Thompson could be around to write about all this, and recognize that he would have hated to see his internal descriptions of an amoral psychedelic orgy of lizard people fucking each other in the blood of their victims Conservative Party come true.
I have never heard the “two bean pies and a pamphlet” description of hotep-pery.
To that end, my Twitter is totally fair game.
Now my Reddit account. That’s a state secret. :D
Honestly, I am high-key excited for the discussions that may pop up if/when my sons discover my twitter account when they are the right age.
That said, I think considering you own kids hearing what you are saying is probably a good metric for interactions in general, you know, acting as civilly as you want them to,…
“Skip this one and live to enjoy many more.”
This is the line I’m going with with my family.
This is accurate. If I spent Ebay PS5 scalper money this year when we are already basically zeroed out everywhere, she’d probably get the dog in the divorce.
This is true, and your username is inspired.
I can hear Elrond saying to his daughter, “if you stay, you will never reach Operating Thetan Level 5!”
Tinfoil hat mode.
The DNC lowkey doesn’t want to win, and is like a dog chasing cars at this point.
It’s about the chase.
The DNC has had four glorious years of clear, disney villain levels of bullshit from the GOP to draw on when they do want to win.
However, Trump’s America is a place where moderate Republicans…
There’s a lot of great discussion / documentary / writing in the last few years that I’ve been digging while working on the unit.
Check out these two, if you want some more recently produced Baldwin History.

It’s the quasi-erudite nature that is so dangerous, because while he is anti-elite in the eyes of poor white conservatives who support the GOP, he is also, in their eyes, our elite. He’s their guy on the inside, who can go toe to toe with elite liberals at their own game and win.
If you actually follow and listen to…
That’s fucked up.
See, Buckley would try to distance himself from the message while at the same time arguing tired shit like culture wars without understanding that he is functionally White Supremacist.
Trump’s rhetoric (rhetoric?) owes plenty to Buckley, but when Mitch McConnel opens his mouth the foundation is…
No, I’ve seen them both. Both are important videos. I was just calling on folks to listen through, despite Buckley’s fairly nauseating diction and message.
He’s a foundational writer and rhetorician for the current Conservative Party in the US, and his arguments are worth autopsying to understand the zombie of the GOP…
I absolutely think this speech is timely as hell, but I think we need to hang around for Buckley’s response, too.
Not because it has merit as a logical response (it doesn’t, it’s one of his worst performances as a debator, potentially due to his wife being injured skiing in the days beforehand the whitest of all…
Lol.
It is the ABSOLUTE height of 2020-ness that I can listen to Firing Line episodes while putting together a Baldwin unit for my students and be all, “you know what, I fucking miss William Buckley right now. What. The. Fuck.”
At the end of the episode, there’s a moment where Buckley (at least verbally, and likely…

Floyd McKissick laid it out to the face of “American Conservativism” pretty plain in ‘66.
