It’s funny because you smug centrist scolds will pop up all over comment sections, but when I was volunteering for the Biden campaign, every other volunteer I’d met had voted for a progressive candidate in the primary. But when there aren’t enough dems to get shit done, you always want to blame progressives.

Not voting for the centrists enough for them to get anything done though. Womp womp.

You must not have heard... Republicans are overturning Roe v. Wade ASAP and banning abortion. The thing they’ve been riling up their base about for 50 years. They’re doing it.

You wanna talk about what won’t work again? NOT voting more Democrats into office.

I wish people had a better grasp on op sec in general. Doing anything even remotely legally shady? Don't document it!

Yeah, I was a bit surprised (but not that surprised) that Dems just unanimously supported that and didn't try to use it as leverage or anything 

I’ve been posting a lot, but I don’t think the kids realize that they are likely now more than a generation away from restored reproductive rights, socialized medicine, debt forgiveness, all the things they somehow believed Bernie would magically deliver.

To the grays: As my friends are jailed for their miscarriages and driving across state lines for infant formula, I’ll be sure to remind them that Biden appointed several black judges. 

the person you replied to is a troll, so I highly doubt they were making a good faith argument.

Maybe she should keep that in mind then?

Agreed on your first point. “Weaponize” just means “utilize” at this point, I guess.

Yeah, her defense was a little odd. I don’t think anyone is taking away from the costume and set design or stunt work in Marvel movies, as I’ve exclusively heard criticisms of how formulaic they are, or how convoluted the plots have gotten. Even people who criticize them acknowledge that the aesthetic stuff is what’s…

I wish Democrats would weaponize something. :(

I’m just thankful that despite not being able to wrangle the party for anything else, the Senate Democrats managed to form a united front to vote unanimously to provide more protection for Kavenaugh and Alito.

It might help if the Democrats tried to do something once in a while. 

As long as people know where he lives, there's one pretty easy way to get some new justices...

Those make sense. One of the problems I’ve heard in regards to a lot of “Secret Menu” stuff is that... there actually isn’t a secret menu. I know it’s been a complaint among some Starbucks workers that a lot of the secret menu stuff is just tiktok memes that people order, so then the actual workers have no idea what…

Ahh, I remember getting all the Starbucks regulars who would order something from Starbucks and either be mad that you didn’t know how to make it, or mad that it’s a completely different drink at every other coffee shop.

Not too mention that IVF is expensive, so legislating that would be hurting the wrong kind of woman.

(Editor’s note: This in no way applies to reproductive rights.)
