I think the specter of RBG is still looming large.

The funny thing is, if they did endorse Harris, probably nobody would notice or care. But the fact that they were stopped from endorsing Harris is now a huge story.

Jeff Bezos, meet Barbara Streisand.

More than 100 Arizona Palestinian, Arab, Muslim, and progressive Democrats and community leaders have signed a letter making the case for those reluctant to support Kamala Harris against Donald Trump.

“We know that many in our communities are resistant to vote for Kamala Harris because of the Biden administration’s complicity in the genocide,” the letter, published Thursday night, reads.

“Some of us have lost many family members in Gaza and Lebanon. We respect those who feel they simply can’t vote for a member of the administration that sent the bombs that may have killed their loved ones,” the letter continued. “As we consider the full situation carefully, however, we conclude that voting for Kamala Harris is the best option for the Palestinian cause and all of our communities.”

I mean, good. If he isn't going to do even the single most basic thing to connect with his students and meet them where they are, how can he ever be an effective teacher?

It's good to see my state in the news for a good reason.

How many bets this asshole goes on and on about how people are too easily offended and cancel culture is out of control?

13 makes the most sense. There are 13 circuits, why not 13 Supreme Court justices?

If Trump shares your values, fuck your values.

“In the fake news media, there are two sets of rules, and conservative[s] are always treated differently,” she continued.

Well, she's right about that much, but not in the way she thinks.

Honestly, the fact that sociopathic whack jobs like Noem are even given the time of day by the media shows how beholden they are to conservative interests.

She had to put down three horses in one week?

Unless there's some sort of horse pandemic I'm unaware of, that sounds even worse.

This is the most incoherent thing I've ever seen...

By speaking out, these "totalitarian" protesters are silencing everyone else and challenging representative democracy? And to stop them from silencing others, they must be arrested to prevent them from speaking?

Dude, this couldn't have sounded good in your fucking head...

That's the nice thing about being a Terry Pratchett fan. The more I learn about him, the more I love him.

No, he shouldn't. OJ had a financial obligation to the Goldmans for years that he shirked. He shouldn't get to keep doing so after he's fucking dead. OJ gets to control the disposition of what's left of his estate after his legal obligations are fulfilled.

And that's not even getting into the fact that HE MURDERED THEIR SON.
