“If you’re pre-born you’re fine; if you’re preschool you’re fucked.”

That is not accurate as a blanket statement, though there are specific instances where that is true.

One thing that has me seriously worried is how Biden keeps acting like the Republican Party is still a loyal opposition that has gone slightly astray under Trump and not an existential threat to democracy, at least since 9/11, which was a major inflection point in our democratic backsliding.

Are you fucking kidding me? Obama was more conservative than I would have liked, but he was no Joe “Senator from MBNA” Biden, who opposed federal funding of abortions, supported the rampant militarism of Clinton and Bush, took away the financial lifeline for generations of Americans with his bankruptcy bill (making…

I would totally approve if these jackbooted thugs wanted to better follow their god emperor’s example and proclaim bone-spurs, go hide in the basement, and whine on Twitter at the first sign of resistance. I’m definitely not seeing enough of steps 1 and 2 in that equation.

A piece of advice from the CDC page on protecting children from COVID-19 that is so important the page’s author considered it worth putting in font as large and bold as the page’s title:

From the beginning of the interview, Wallace was on the president’s flat, untanned ass.

I don’t know that I’ve met that species of pedant yet, but maybe they’d prefer hooha? Mimsy? The drip tray? The mauve envelope?

Glad to help.  Sorry to hear this isn’t out of the norm for her, but at least she’s not struggling.  Hopefully she’ll be inclined to take your words to heart.  Good luck!

I’m not sure how helpful I can be without knowing your friend better, but one thing that struck me about the situation is that, while your friend is definitely not being the best they could by encouraging people to put themselves at more risk, if the job she knows involves flogging tickets for Disney or whatever,…

Go figure, Trump’s incel secret police are scared of vaginas:

Hey now, at least Barry Soetoro’s goon squad had the common courtesy to abduct people in Blue Bell Ice Cream trucks on the way to the FEMA death dome. What is this unmarked van shit? 1 of 5 stars: remedial Pinochet.

Remember how all the Jade Helm loonies were screaming, “BARRY SOETORO is practicing to round up POLITICAL DISSIDENTS and stuff them in a FEMA DEATH DOME and/or get everybody used to the idea of the military in the streets imposing MARTIAL LAW!!!1!”

Considering Biden was added to the ticket to be the folksy white guy with slightly backwards attitudes about race and sex in order to ease the megadonors and swing voters into the scary new idea of electing a Black guy, I’d say it’s more like we’re rolling back to Obama v0.5. But your point is well-taken, nonetheless.

What’s hilarious about all of this is that Trump won in 2016 in no small part because he attacked Clinton from the left and convinced a small, but critical amount of progressives to stay home or vote third party. Biden himself is super vulnerable to those same attacks, but instead they’re going for the approach of…

You can draw that line all the way back to St. Regan’s “government is the problem” and pulling a neat little switch where they permanently replaced social programs with Black people in the minds of a generation of dumb racists. But hey, at least it seems like the world’s longest dog-whistle concert is finally coming…

Ask and ye shall receive!

Right?  The only thing missing is a crying Statue of Liberty.

“Placing medical data collection outside of the leadership of public health experts could severely weaken the quality and availability of data, add an additional burden to already overwhelmed hospitals and add a new challenge to the U.S. pandemic response,” Dr. Thomas File, president of the Infectious Diseases…
