Politically viable meaning what? If Democrats win the presidency, and the Senate, they will have the ability to pack the court. What else matters?

Do you think they will try to pack the courts for some ideology?

Good god almighty $120 - $150 is more than my entire electric bill this time of year

good fuck how much are you using.  i use green mountain in central tx and my bills even in the summer top out around 160.  my kwh price is 12.9 which is high but not sky high and im on 100% solar. 

I say this as a dyed-in-the-wool environmentalist: at some point, we need to get people who don’t give a shit about the environment to also buy EVs. We need to get everyone (or at least most people) driving vehicles that aren’t powered by fossil fuels if we are to have a hope of preserving at least some of the Earth’s…

The aggregated poles were pretty spot on, they showed a virtual tie or slight lead for Clinton in some key states and an overall preference for Clinton. Clinton did win the popular vote by a wide margin, but was narrowly defeated in a couple of key states to lose the electoral college. The ‘good’ polls gave Trump a…

It is pretty messed up to see Carey’s Biden impression driven more by how Biden has been portrayed by the Trump campaign than by observations drawn from objective reality.

Who said I’m dropping slurs? I’m not. I’m just at a point where I can’t muster the energy to care that Cardi B used the r-word in a voice memo about accidentally publishing a nude photo.

Oh yeah, I’m not supporting it, just trying to figure out how and why Jez is so celebratory about everything she does and says when it’s clearly not always worth celebrating. It’s true that they laud her intelligence and that should be enough to expect better of her, 100%, and it is classist/belittling if my theory is…

I’ve been thinking that someone has decided these behaviours are a result of her upbringing in a low socioeconomic class and that calling her out for such could be seen as elitist/classist? Is that plausible?

Personally speaking, I don’t find her attractive. I’ve never knowingly listened to her music, but nearly whatever she says/does gets near adulation from the writing staff here at Jez. I don’t understand it, but you speak the apparent truth.

Truth right here. Gal Gadot tries to put a kindness into the world, is dragged on Jez for months. CardiB tosses around horrible slurs- *crickets*.

I can’t muster up the energy to care about people using verboten words. Maybe when the world is no longer in such a horrible place, I can go back to sweating the small stuff.

I watched her stories during the party with all those videos and was like “WTF YALL AREN’T EVEN WEARING MASKS WTF?!”

I’ve barely left my house since march and people out here throwing parties makes me want to break shit. 

It astounds me that people only drink bubbles for certain occasions. My partner works in the wine industry, and sometimes we have bubbles with dinner just because it pairs well with dinner. We are having lambrusco and lasagne tonight. Bubbles and fast food is legit delicious...

So we’re all cool with the casual use of the R word slur? Of course you are, it’s not like Gal Gadot said it.

I have a theory about this. Because we’ve seen Jezebel ignore Cardi’s use of the R word, a slur based on Asian features, and also language denigrating transpeople, off the top of my head and there has to be more than unexamined fandom behind this. So I’ve been thinking that someone has decided these behaviours are a…

In one of her previous posts, she used the word “chinky,” and the internet called her out for it for obvious reasons. When I mentioned it, another poster helpfully explained that it was basically O.K. because saying that was part of her “culture.” (I don’t know if they meant Dominican, Trinidadian, or...The Bronx.)

Domination is fine. The ability to fight is what we need. Right now all they can do is save tires and hope to get into position for drs. Hopefully the new cars will allow more on track fighting.

He’s probably still Kimi or better level though. And I’d take him over a lot of 3rd tier drivers (Haas/Williams/etc.)
