One thing this election made very clear: Establishment Democrats don't disagree about Republican policies. They just take issue (sometimes) to the degree that Republicans want to go in on their policies.
something that is particularly galling about this is that Democrats have had a front row seat to one of the most effective tactics in political history: Mitch McConnell's successful effort to hurt Dems by refusing them cooperation on anything at all

and somehow they don't want to replicate it
... what we absolutely need is Dem politician who wake up every morning thinking 1) "How do I advance the good of the people" and 2) "How do I fuck Republicans so they don't win elections and stop me from advancing the good of the people?"

We're bombing speed boats that could totally get to the US with a few tanks of gas off the coast of Venezuela, but pardoning notorious drug smugglers caught trying to bring 400 *tons* of cocaine into the US. That's over 24 buses filled to the brim with cocaine

calmly explaining why we shouldn't bomb random venezuelan boats to people who argued we should torture random iraqis and then won an election by saying they were against a war they advocated for

Well, that's unfortunate. And racist.

The UK committee said the “'harms would outweigh the benefits' if it were to recommend prostate cancer screening for all men or for men with a relevant family history of cancer, as it could lead to a small reduction...

When Trump orders boats blown up and Hegseth makes sure everyone on them dies at the scene, it's not because Trump actually cares about reducing drug trafficking in the US.

US Marine Staff Sergeant’s wife was grabbed by ICE at her green card interview

The same thing happened to the wife of a Navy vet

They served their country, brought their spouses over legally and were going through the process

Instead they watched the loves of their life be taken away in handcuffs

In a massive meeting of doctors… on the topic of the aging population and resource problems…

Yes.

One of them said we should consider not treating people with co-morbidities.

My friends.

I could not hold my tongue.

Faint sound of drone here in west Kyiv, and cat is off the bed like a shot and straight under to hide. He won’t come out until it’s quiet for a sufficiently long period of time.

Sound of interceptors going up now, and big bangs - ballistic attack, and cruise missiles incoming.

And I don't know if the answer is: everyone is too traumatized to do work and we need to reinvent society. Or if it's more like: generations are losing their cognitive abilities and willpower due to destructive technologies. Or: we all have post-viral brain damage. Or: all of the above.

An issue we're seeing at all levels of university is that many students are simply refusing to do *anything*. They aren't reading the syllabus, aren't following assignment guidelines, aren't engaging with material, ignoring deadlines. And this might seem like old news, but it truly has ramped up.

I had dreams of going back to university, but even as an engaged student myself, this sounds nightmarish.

I keep seeing people trying to play down the payment processor situation, saying it's only the extreme NSFW accounts getting sacked.

Well. One of the cutest SFW furry artist got banned from PayPal. What more proof do y'all need that we need to keep fighting the good fight?

Also go support Nakufin.
I'm devastated, if I don't find an alternative that works with argentinians I'm contemplating the worst, I can't do regular jobs, art was my job for around 15 years
I don't do nsfw even when people insist me to
my life was already crumbling and now I don't know what to do

In case Crunchyroll paying its VAs peanuts for theatrical releases didn't make it obvious, the amount that companies would like to be paying people is zero dollars.

The "Larry Summers complained to Jeffrey Epstein that MeToo went too far" and "Olivia Nuzzi committed crimes on behalf of the fascist she masturbated with while reporting on him" are the same story: American elites have no ideology other than "I should be untouchable." Society is run by empty husks
