People in MN know the Lynx, FWIW. Your average non fan probably has heard of Maya Moore at least by name, but I don’t even know who’s on the Timberwolves these days. I don’t think anyone’s watched them since Kevin Garnett left.

And I’m mostly on this article as an NWSL and specifically Portland Thorns fan, so I feel…

“The current political moment” is something very different for the left than it is for the mainstream American voter. You act like Joe and Jane Suburbanite are now utterly convinced that the police are the problem. We’re just now at the point where they’re starting to think about it, but for large swaths of the…

Yeah, I’m a Warren voter living in Klobuchar’s state; I’m not a Klobuchar fan by any means but the idea that she’s doing this out of spite is a bit tinfoil hat. I don’t think Warren ever had a chance at a VP slot under Biden, for one, and Klobuchar didn’t get where she is from being irrationally petty. She’s a pretty…

I agree, personally.  My money’s on either Cortez-Masto or Duckworth.

Warren never had a chance to be Biden’s VP. They’re too far apart. I say this as a Warren voter; like, if you think Biden’s going to pick her, regardless of what Klobuchar thinks, you’re dreaming.

This.  If he dies too early the Republicans run someone else without all the baggage.  We just need him impeded.

You forgot the murder hornets

Every country is having problems right now. I lived in Canada for several years and while it was better in a lot of ways and I really tried to stay when I finished my degree, I mean, Canada didn’t close its last residential school until 1996. It’s not Eden.

The far right and autocrats are on the march everywhere.…

The Buddha wasn’t known for his violent defense of slavery, for starters.

If you lived in the Oort, I’m pretty sure you’d think of Saturn as “near the sun”.

Titan’s better than anything in the Jovian system. And like Brigit alluded to, I would prefer less radiation sickness and cancer to more.

This has occurred to me as well. The way to unite the party after basically everybody took a shot at the big prize might be to move forward in a formation. Harris for AG, Warren for Education or Treasury, et al.

That’s what I’m waiting to see too.  It seems like it’s always more than one with these predators.

Ah, the “they’re both the same” canard. You may not like a corporate/moderate Democrat, but if you wouldn’t take them in a heartbeat over an overt fascist you must not have a lot of skin in the game.

Came here for this

We’re not used to seeing men as sexual objects rather than sexual agents.  That’s why the “cheesecake”-iness here feels so weird, I think.

It’s funny precisely because it’s a man bites dog story.  This basically never happens to us dudes.  I can read this without any real fear, any real emotional impact.  Yall read the reverse and it sounds like it’s traumatic because that shit happens all the damn time.  It’s a lot more real to women.

Given her interest in computer stuff I could actually see her being a Yang Ganger.

Hey, Ministry was pop before they were industrial.  Unfortunately, she doesn’t seem quite as good at it.
