Social media isn’t driving the teenage “loneliness epidemic”. Teenagers’ loneliness was the same in the 1970s,1980s, and 1990s long before anyone heard of TikTok or smartphones.

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged.
Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

During a CBC interview this year, I had a snippy exchange with a dual citizen that lamented #ElbowsUp tensions were Canadians' fault for taking the Prez too seriously.
And I, in so many words, suggested if he doesn't want to be taken seriously, maybe he shouldn't have run for (or be) President.

The "But did he MEAN it?" talk about Trump drives me mad. I'm sure the question of whether he is an actual murderous dictator or merely a paranoid rageaholic screaming into TruthSocial will make for a good "Interesting Times with Ross Douthat" or ten, but both are disqualifying, so why split hairs?

If you receive an illegal order, you have a duty to disobey.
This isn’t controversial.
A President calling for the execution of anyone who reminds service members of this oath is showing us why the duty to disobey illegal orders is so important in the first place.

You mean the company that's currently being struck by its workers and the company that's currently being boycotted because of its terrible DEI policy rollbacks? Why not just call this the Chocolate Mint Racist Scab Frostie?
Beginning Monday, a Frozen Peppermint Hot Chocolate drink will be available exclusively at Starbucks cafés inside Target stores.
The chains are hoping the drink can drum up excitement from customers this holiday season.
