“#Anne Frank,” seriously? Just bring on the giant meteor already.  We deserve it.

Results from Democratic primaries don’t mean much for “[d]reams of a leftward shift.” It’s a Democratic primary, where (usually) only Democrats vote.  It’s not surprising to see progressives win over milquetoast centrists. Hell, the final results in safely D districts don’t really matter for trends.

I’ll take that bet. Much more likely they try to pack in as many liberals as possible into their districts to make others more competitive.  

The FBI has closed its investigation into the noose found in the garage stall of NASCAR’s one black driver, noting that the noose has been there since 2019, so no big deal.

That said, there is something funny about him threatening the statutory maximum for people who are mean to statues.

It seems like the better approach is what Warner is doing with old Looney Tunes and Gone with the Wind - keep the material up, but start the thing with a long disclaimer about how messed up the material is.

Bolton’s book has been pirated and is spreading via Google Drive, so I picked it up and searched for a few things (interestingly enough, every utterance of the word “fuck” is attributed to the president).

and he also thinks we’re all stupid.

It’s a big win for the LGBT community, that goes without question.

Perlman is 70 (side note: holy shit), and 70 and 17 sound so much alike with a Canadian accent like Ted Cruz’s.

There are things you can fairly criticize Lincoln for. For instance, he’s one of the only Presidents to suspend habeas corpus, one of two rights guaranteed by the Constitution itself (as opposed to the amendments), and the Emancipation Proclamation only applied to the Confederacy, not slave-holding states within the…

The nighttime scene of singing/scar comparing/U.S.S. Indianapolis story telling/shark attacking blows me away every time I see it.
