I will say this about being thrown under the bus: the view fucking sucks, but at least you get a good look at how the machinery works.

They have 100% always been this way, though notably the transition from helicopter rides and referencing crushing minorities abroad humorlessly transitioned to nazi shit, but like that's basically a new layer of paint instead of a new perspective.

For those tempted to say Young Republicans have always been this way, they really have not. When I worked on campus and did bipartisan college events after, they were very much not like this.
That's why groups like YCT and eventually TPUSA formed -because Young Republicans weren't radical enough.

"Viewpoint diversity" is not a thing.

It is, as always, the right's attempt to portray themselves as oppressed for having shit ideas nobody wants.

Their crap performance is somehow oppression.

The way this ends is forced attendance at right-wing "comedian" performances.

My mom always complained that the scene wasn't complicated enough to get the results it did, but my mom never spoke to the average building security guard.

Vance, miserable liar that he is, referred to these bigoted, Nazi-flavored Young Republican posts as a "college group chat."

But most of the quoted in the Politico article are GROWN ADULTS with JOBS.

Do NOT use vanilla in place of sherry! I just made this exactly as written and used vanilla since I didn't have sherry. It is now down the disposal. The smell alone was a huge indicator of what it would taste like. Whoever thought of vanilla with meat? Nasty.

We are WAY BETTER NOW at treating covid and fewer people are dying of it in the acute phase.

But it's not just about the acute phase: organ damage sucks.

It's ALSO not just about covid anymore. They gutted the cdc. We are on our own, and A LOT of things are airborne.

Basically every protest I've been to in East Texas since January has had dozens of Palestinian flags. Still amazes me to then log on and see people act like the average lib mom is not for Gaza.

Like... I'm sex-repulsed and I have yet to encounter a truly gratuitous sex scene. Ever.

thank u, hexed @lindsaykingmiller.bsky.social · 1d

Sex scenes are almost never "gratuitous" or "unnecessary." You learn things about characters and relationships during sex that you can't really learn any other way, such as whether they're into fisting.

Also I think given what the circuses were in the Roman Empire, I think ICE raids are the circuses.

Whereas Harris told MSNBC that she believes whether or not Israel has committed genocide is a fair and honest question to ask, Cory Booker explicitly said to the "I've Had it" podcast that he thinks addressing the question of whether Netanyahu has committed crimes would undermine resolving conflict.

NEW: Pentagon officials are forcing staff to watch Pete Hegseth's "Warrior" speech he forced generals to listen to.

Officials are even "testing" staff to see if they watched — and are threatening consequences if they lie about watching it or if they mock it, sources tell @swin24.bsky.social and I.

The Pentagon Is Ordering Staff to Watch Hegseth’s ‘MAGA Garbage’ Speech… Or Else

Defense Department sources tell Zeteo that staff have been warned that if they don’t watch or read the speech, or if they speak negatively of it, they could face severe consequences.
