On the other hand, doing nothing about her just normalizes her behaviour. As it did with Trump, which is what made her election possible in the first place.

I think the Democratic establishment’s plan here is that a known quantity in Greene, who showcases to the general American public just how utterly insane the GOP has become, is useful in that while there are still FAR too many Americans agree with her, most don’t, and many more think she’s fucking bananas.

None. If anything, it’s just preparing whatever payback they think is necessary for whoever let the group chats leak.

They don’t have a choice because the police in CA have an enormously powerful union. If they just fire them without going through procedure, the assholes will likely get their jobs back plus money.

Just your hourly reminder that ACAB.

In small towns like these, those high school cliques carry over into adulthood on surprisingly hard lines. 

this is fucking stupid. legalize it at a federal level already. my back is fucking sore all the time and i cant sleep well anymore.

Fuck the police

I can’t see how anyone thought that an administration that included Kamala Harris would be in any way friendly to casual drug usage.

Marjorie Taylor Greene is a domestic terrorist and was involved in planning the 1/6/21 terrorist attack on the Capitol. Throw her out and then lock her up.

Thank you, you have perfectly articulated my feelings in a much better way! Again, I have no art training whatsoever, and I only learnt art history up to the Renaissance at school (we had to read Vasari’s Lives of the Artists), although I have some familiarity with the more important artists of the last couple of…

I saw Three Studies for figures at the base of a Crucifixion at the Tate Modern. I think I had also seen a triptych of George Dyer on the same day (I think Triptych August 1972 but I’m not 100% sure). The latter really affected me.

I get what you mean regarding the visceral reaction. I got that feeling when I saw Bacon triptychs at a museum. They were like a gut punch, but they made me feel something.

I have nothing to say about this except that I think Damien Hirst’s work is hideous. 

Floridians did it in 2009 (see my other comment for this article). You should not underestimate the nihilistic malice of Florida Republicans, the scum of the earth. They are the people that old joke was talking about:

This isn’t the first time that God damned crooked bastard did this. Back in 2009 the Obama administration was offering $2.1-billion to Florida for infrastructure works, as a stimulus to help overcome the so-called “Great Recession.” I was particularly interested in this, as the economic sector my job was in (civil…

I’ve seen this show before except it was a version in my own state. When John Kasich got elected Governor of Ohio, one of the first things he did was reject funding to repair and expand rail service and he did it only because it came from Barack Obama.

It’s rare that I read a comment that sounds so very much like a PR release.
