I am so fucking sick of these lunatics I could scream.

I got bored at work one day and read the Wikipedia summaries for all the seasons.
I’m happy for everyone here, but the anti-abortion candidate from my state, Ted Budd, won his bid unfortunately. He spent tens of millions of dollars of both his and the Republican Party’s money on attack ads demonizing the Democratic candidate, Cheri Beasley, as soft on crime during her tenure as NC State Supreme…
I have hope for the runoff. Chase Oliver, the libertarian who took 2% of the vote, is a pretty sane candidate. His positions are mostly Democratic (save for economics and being pro-gun); he’s pro-decency to immigrants, pro-abortion rights, pro-LGBT rights (he’s gay himself). I can’t see people who voted for him…
It’s almost like buying a company on a whim with zero forethought or plan is a bad idea.
I was a domestic violence prosecutor in the 90's, and did a lot of police training. If I had seen this police report, I would have been on the phone with the Internal Affairs officer immediately. It’s really bad, and we’ve known about primary aggressor determinations for some 30 years now. I can’t describe how…
In my opinion, this is a bad take. She’s not responsible for his choices, and his choice to run. She is responsible for platforming him and not doing her due-diligence first. She has a history of platforming extremely problematic and damaging individuals without ever coming forward to denounce the damaging things they…
Counterpoint: Dr. Oz would have not have come close to sniffing any political success whatsoever if she hadn’t plucked him from whatever fucking rathole he was in and made him famous.
She doesn’t love you anymore than Bezos does.
I mean, he’s objectively a quack. I don’t know anyone who’s blaming Oprah directly for his decision to run, but she gave him a massive, legitimized platform and has never, not once, spoken publicly about how that was a mistake. I know it’s bad form to speak out, unprompted, against a friend or former friend, but he…
Not only that, but banning Trump demonstrably limited his voice. It turned the noise from him way down. Banning him did exactly what it was supposed to do: limit his platform and his ability to spew hate and foment violence.
So when Section 230 is repealed, will Musky squeal? Sell the whole thing?
I feel like the Twitter fuckery is more likely to take him down in the long run than his missteps with Tesla valuations.
This is not just the woman responsible for banning Trump. This is the woman responsible for defending the free speech of Twitter users that are actually under attack. Musk wants to fashion himself as a free speech warrior, well she was actually someone fighting in court to protect speech while Musk was learning the…
You don’t have to feel sympathy for her. Having people, doesn’t matter who, telling their stories like this is something that unfortunately needs to keep happening from now until election day because the American public has the attention span of a two-year-old, apparently.
The reality is that people like her are the only ones that actually have a CHANCE to change the minds of those around them. The voice has to come from inside the house. Conservatives have done a perfect job of created sealed echo-chambers and creating voters who automatically reject anything said by anyone they…
Ugh I know this is a bit but, like, it’s not a good bit.
That article is worth a read. It pretty clearly demonstrates that Snyder is an awful pathetic person, and quite obviously the worst owner in the league, possibly in all of North American sports (non-NWSL division maybe?). It also demonstrates what a high bar that is because the rest of the owners are pathetic…
“We don’t have messed up healthcare (or pick your preferred most important issue) in the US because SpaceX exists we have messed up healthcare in the US because we lack the political will to make sensible reforms and policy choices that could easily co-exist right alongside of guys like Bezos and Musk.”
He’s a Canadian, so he can’t be Democrat or Republican. But he can be a reactionary and a mentor to budding fascists.
Unfortunately the far right are doing well all around the world.
In fairness, the app is salvageable, they just need to re-brand to something along the lines of Dowry Date and match these men with the girl’s father like in the bible.
