Surely there is one at least sorta progressive in Maine who is A) under the age of 50 and B) does not have any Nazi tattoos that would like to be a Senator? Because come the fuck on

I love how none of those words actually mean anything. Yes, we love getting excited about vague vagueries (also it probably means that the next Xbox will have microsoft office)

The next Xbox will be high-end and curated, teases Xbox president Sarah Bond:

"The next-gen console will be a very premium and high-end curated experience. You're starting to see some of the thinking we have in this handheld, but I don't want to give it all away"

Ok but how long did people know that that dude was a blackwater merc because that's also automatically disqualifying

Been cooking the same meal prep dish for the last several months and you'd think I would have learned by now to use less cayenne pepper given my low spice tolerance lol

I think at least some of this has been recanted but that doesn’t mean we can’t/shouldn’t still get Lashely showing up in in Hastune Miku shit at some point

The tattoo is obviously disqualifying and we do not actually have to take seriously arguments to the contrary.

this also drives me insane, this idea that it is the most normal thing in the world for a young (white) man to have a nazi curious phase. it isn’t!

this is a pretty apt metaphor for what the US empire has done to countless governments all across the world, but this time it’s looking in the mirror as US imperialism has finally come home to occupy its own people. this was always destined to happen under US capitalist neoliberalism.

Trump demolishing the White House to build a $250 million ballroom funded by Amazon, Lockheed Martin, and Palantir — all during a government shutdown, and as he covers up the Epstein Files — captures it all pretty well doesn't it

I love Guillermo del Toro calling ages 19 to 29 "sublime confusion"

The full quote: "I think the sublime confusion is from nineteen to twenty-nine. You think you are late for everything, you're a has been, nothing is happening, there's no opportunity for you, the world is closed, everything is a disaster, you wanna die. And then you're thirty. "
"You young people are in the exact age of desperation. I never felt more done and old than in my twenties. I'd say 'life has passed me and I did nothing.' But I'm here to tell you that's not true: you have a lot of fucking time."
