For the lucky few, I suppose...

All my life I’ve ignored the warnings about not putting Q-tips or ‘anything bigger than your elbow’ in my ears, but now I’m going to have to change my earwax-free lifestyle.

Woo Durbin! I know next to nothing about him save that he’s good on repro rights and the environment, but from those two things I assume he’s probably a good rep.

Ooh so many.

Googling “congressmen sharing apartment” got me one CNN article about Democratic congressmen doing this, like it looks like it happened at least once and was thusly turned into an Amazon tv show, but I cannot believe Republican dudes would ever agree to share space like Dick Durbin and co.

Not sure about the en banc thing—I think I prefer the idea that a random assortment of the larger group of judges decides whether or not to hear a case, and then a different random selection (chosen after panel #1 decides to weigh in) actually hears the case and make the decision. If the decision can be appealed to…

Yeah, it’s very... with the course of nature you kind of have to just go with it. I mean mostly deciding who you want with you at your kid’s birth and where to give birth. Deciding whether you want an epidural or not. Deciding whether you want an episiotomy, and not getting one done to you if you don’t want that.…

I am fiercely in favor of women making their own decisions around childbirth but OH MY GOD. Oh my god. I have no words.

Google NPVIC. We can circumvent the need for a constitutional amendment if enough states pass NPVIC legislation. After all, states decide how their votes are proportioned. A good bunch of states already have passed these bills.

I had the same thought, because the things she said all sounded so disorganized and off-the-cuff. She should maybe have used a teleprompter and issued more well-prepared remarks. I couldn’t help but compare her victory speech to Beto O’Rourke’s concession speech and, well, night and day.

Deep vein thrombosis. I sit on my ass all goddamn day and get pains in my legs. It’s gonna happen.

You are the hero we need AND the hero we deserve.

God, I’m terribly sorry. That is anguishing. As you grieve, try to remember how much she loved you and how awesome her life was being loved by you in return. She was very lucky to be your companion. I’m glad you found each other and had each other. Loss is the worst, but the combination of grief and guilt... I can’t…

I took my kids to their school’s “Haunted Hallways” event while wearing a mask. I was told I could not wear a mask inside and I had to remove it.

How about the fact that he perjured himself? He lied under oath when he was confirmed as a federal judge about not receiving those stolen Democratic documents in his emails, which we now know he did receive.

To the person QQ’ing about truth and dissent: we are not here for circle-jerks. It’s just that productive discussion only happens when we get rid of trolls and assholes.

Wow, I am so proud of everyone for leaving the shitty comments to languish in the grays. Well done, fam. Keep on ignoring and dismissing as needed.

ETA: removed because the content of my comment is covered farther down the thread.

No metaphor will ever nail it better than that one tweet:

Right!? That was my takeaway too. Poor defenseless Delaware, it never asked to harbor Mark Judge. Can’t we go back to mocking Florida?
