Or a vote of retention like Colorado does. Governor appoints the judges but voters must retain them or new judges must be appointed. Kind of strikes a balance between overtly campaigning judges and more democratic influence on the judiciary
Oh yeah? Name ONE ape that wrote Shakespeare. Go on I’ll wait
Comedy has become an act of airing social grievances (maybe always has been but definitely amplified these days) and thus peoples inherently political social grievances are going to sort them into their respective camps.
If the problems you’re facing and exposing are “the big man is keeping me down” you’re gonna find solidarity in that message and if your problems are “those people are gross and I don’t like them” only other people who have similar obsession with ordering society into groups of chosen people vs undesirables will respond to your message.
Right. The question is less how do we move past trump and more how do we contend with half our population seriously lacking critical thinking skills? We have a crisis on our hands and it isn’t (just) fascism, it’s an inability to correctly process the information of the world around us.

Also applies to misogyny in general. You can call out terfs (or just regular anti trans conservative women) for being bigoted shit faces without resorting to gendered attacks.
I realize cunt has a different level of salaciousness in UK than US but it is a little ironic that an insult referencing female genitalia (and in my opinion is inherently based in misogyny) has been used to show sexual harassment against a man because it was prepended with a traditionally masculine trait.
Most companies have software to identify what you’ve copied to an external drive as well.
Don’t bcc your personal email, the internal mail servers can see everything even if the recipients don’t. Better to just screencap when possible.

Idaho looks at those lists for the worst state in the union and say “we gotta pump those numbers up”
This is being mega pedantic. The argument is basically that temporary protected status is not the same as “legal status”. But it’s also not illegal immigration either, it’s within the confines of US and international law, and they are allowed to stay while their application is being processed. So I would say it’s a form of legal status. I also guarantee that nobody watching knows the minutia here
A funicular celebration worth finiculating
I have wondered a similar question… Is the trend that young men who are raised in a republican environment / family / culture aren’t leaving it at the same rate as their predecessors? Or is it that more young men raised in a liberal / apolitical environment are being captured by the right wing internet pipeline?
I would guess that in previous generations, kids are raised about 50/50 to match their parents beliefs (who are roughly 50/50 conservative or liberal) and the significant dominance of liberal youth vote was attributable to kids leaving that ideology behind as they form their own beliefs, reenforced by peer effects. But I’ve wondered if tiktok and other new social dysfunction of current generations has made it easier for kids raised in that 50/50 to just “stay” where they were raised.
Perhaps it could all be explained by the weakening of the ability of peer effects to influence young people’s political beliefs. Young men feel they have more community in online conservative spaces than they do in their more egalitarian real world social environments, so instead of ditching their parents beliefs to match their real world friends they ditch their real world friends that don’t match their beliefs.
Thanks I get it now 🙌🏼
Someone explain the joke pls
My favorite part was when Hank showed up, deadpanned the fourth wall, and said “I guess that means junior is… braking bad” and then schradered all over the place while maintaining eye contact with the camera
