Congress is not in a standoff and Republicans and Democrats are not playing a game of chicken. This both sides-ism needs to stop. Republicans are holding the lives of desperate and in need Americans hostage because they don’t fucking care who suffers and who dies as a result of their inaction, especially if it will…

It would be really nice if outlets did not try to “both sides” this one. Republicans deliberately tabled this bill in bad faith knowing Dems could never accept it. Mitch McConnell admitted this himself. Dems wanted 1.3 trillion, GOP countered with 300 billion. That is not a compromise, that is an insult. Also the bill…

There’s only one officially sanctioned word to refer to “Dr.” Phil:

People who call other people “daddy” when they find them attractive skeeve me the fuck out and raises concerning red flags.

Been a bit of a week here given so far we’ve the government just openly admitting they’re breaking international law by unilaterally changing the Brexit treaty as they’re now publicly pushing it as a bit shit. This by the way is the treaty Johnson negotiated, claimed was “oven-ready”, got every Tory candidate to sign…

Cancel culture isn’t real. If someone loses money or a business opportunity because they did something bad, that’s capitalism and the free market. If someone is kicked off a social media platform because they said something terrible, that’s not a 1A violation.

From the article:

There was an article in The Atlantic back in January that discussed how Kate and Meghan have basically become avatars for the culture wars and how people reflect their values onto these two women regardless of what they’re really like. One of things I found most interesting was these tabloids and writers who praise…

You mean like all the test made in the Good Old US of A that return false positive?

The “made in China” part told us all we need to know about you. Keep it up.

It’s just a pregnancy test shell with a small OLED screen inside. It’s not running or being controlled from the pregnancy test itself. You could put that screen inside a 1970s computer and claim it’s running on it too. “Doom on everything” is only impressive when it’s running on the actual hardware. Those tests use 8-b…

Republicans give zero fucks about Hong Kong, until the moment they can disingenuously refer to it to try to make some dumb ideology-over-reality argument.

Two thoughts other than the obvious eye rolling this induced:

Wait, what? McGowan is being controlled by the CFL?

Everyone should watch this for a dose of 2020 reality.

Biden and the rest of the Dems didn’t want to be seen as torpedoing a Black man’s ascent to the court.

This is a really cute take to offer, but no one is supporting Biden over Trump solely or even mostly because of this particular issue.

Biden, who was chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee when Hill testified that Thomas had sexually harassed her in 1991, has taken criticism over his handling of those hearings during his campaign for the White House, and has also publicly lamented not being able to “get [Hill] the kind of hearing she…

I WASN’T INSPIRED

So much heavy lifting is being done to clear any road block for Joe Biden right now. Why not in 2016? Why didn’t we acknowledge “super predators” was a bad look for Hillary Clinton but she had room to grow. Why wasn’t mediocre good enough in 2016? I don’t think I’ll ever get over it.
