In terms of US politics, Bush v. Gore is the defining event of the century. It set the template: a ruthless right that instinctively seeks power & doesn't give a shit about rule of law...and a bunch of hapless, feckless octogenarian Dems worried about the good opinion of centrist opinion columnists.
The 25th anniversary of Bush v Gore is today. The conspiracy mongering & corruption of the GOP has been brewing for a long time.
Roberts, Barrett and Kavanaugh were all on Bush's legal team, where they pushed unfounded legal theories. SC justices were already enmeshed in voter fraud myths.

Here's Sandra Day O'Connor endorsing News Max levels of voter fraud conspiracies in the 2000 election.

kinda evergreen post for all of bluesky tbh
Congrats, you're getting old and you feel like the world is passing you by
tbh you're making it worse for yourself by freaking out every time kids do some new permutation of the sort of things they've always done just because you're no longer a part of it

I honestly think that many people don't know what their public libraries offer besides books. I think that everyone should go on a public library treasure hunt in 2026. Go explore what your library systems offer at no cost to you. Report back to me :)
“I miss blockbuster video” the library has every dvd totally untouched and I never see you there

I would use the entire might of the U.S. military for exactly one thing before disbanding it:
force Paramount to issue apologies to Melissa Barrera and Jenna Ortega, triple their salaries, and make the SCREAM 7 we deserve

If you were a despotic president, what movie would you force Hollywood to make? I want to see Quentin's Star Trek movie or maybe Kill Bill Vol 3.
