The Center for American Progress is a “centrist” organization primarily funded by monied interests and the ThinkProgress site is one of the few productive and progressive things they have accomplished. What is called “centrism” here is right wing in every other part of the world.

What does Trump think that light bulb manufacturers are going to do? Are they going to scrap their LED plants just to build more incandescent bulbs? Why would they do that, when all indicators show that LED bulbs are gaining market share, regardless of government regulation?

If the older people are boomers you can also say to their face that it is their fault and watch their face turn red with rage. It’s a real treat.

I frequently have to explain to older people that I flatly refuse to have kids because of this. Our economy is screwed, the wealth gap is growing exponentially, and the environment is very likely doomed for long term support of human life.

what happened to cement overshoes and the fuckin East River

But I’ll take it...I’ve never stopped about praising Warren. She deserves every bit she gets.

Bipartisanship for Republicans just means Democrats shutting up and voting on whatever terrible bill they’re trying to push through lest they be accused of being troop hating socialists. 

I never really “got” Car Talk as a kid, much to the surprise of the adults in my life. I was a little car nut from Massachusetts, after all. And my dad loved it. But this story closes a lot of loops for me.

Just remember, don’t drive like my brother. 

End the carceral state. Abolish prisons.

Donald Trump defrauds people of their life’s savings and pays a fine.

Couldn’t find a good guy with a gun in Midland-Odessa?

$20 bucks for 3 hours is less than minimum wage.  That doesn’t sound great at all.
