This is only a contrarian view on a website that has full on lost its mind.
A bit of a contrarian view. Democrats likely won't pay a price for this in the midterms. The American memory is quite short on political machinations. But Republicans are about to learn a central tenet of American politics: You cannot give people a benefit and then take it away.

I gotta say the evidence that Schumer is secretly controlling the cave caucus is some real thin gruel. It basically rests on the assumption of a level of Senate partisan discipline normally seen in a parliamentary democracy when it isn't just leaning on even grosser "perfidious jew" tropes.

every single week they're throwing this guy a special oval office love-in that appears to be the presidential equivalent of letting your dog scarf an entire big mac and fries before that last trip to the vet
Pirro: "Mr President, there is in this room a group of people who love you, who believe in you, and who are so proud to be in this Oval Office and to be part of this amazing day because you have changed the course of America."

So many responses tonight are like “who cares what good parts are in the law they passed, Trump won’t follow them anyway” and like, goddamn, listen to yourselves and ask why you even care for one second what’s in any of this, then.

I think some of you have not taken a single moment to consider that the people who’ve been out of work for the last 40 days and who are presently staring down the prospect of going into the holiday season without a paycheck are *also* calling their congresspeople.

My gf is sick (a head cold, she’ll be fine) but as a result she’s been resting by binge watching Game of Thrones for the first time. As I catch bits here and there it is reminding me how great the show actually was in its heyday. What a fucking shame about the ending.

I’m genuinely confused reading this article what is being alleged to have happened. I assumed backchannel talks were happening with leadership’s approval, but none of what’s in the screenshots seems like Schumer dictating something that got heroically rejected by the caucus?

the OTHER thing is that no filibuster defender has yet to articulate why it is that people who happen to live in low density states not only deserve additional representation but also deserve to exercise a veto *on top of that*

Since I see this discourse is happening again, two things I believe:
1) genAI is no more alive/sentient/conscious/whatever you want to call it than Clippy was or a rock is
2) It’s bad for your soul to scream and curse at chatbots just because of #1

I have four kids and we were on WIC with all of them. We were poor enough to not be able to afford the fresh veggies my wife wanted, and I swore I would one day make enough she could buy anything she wanted from the grocery store.
Anyway, I’m in for $1k. Who’s with me?

This Post seems to think that Zohran Mamdani is coming in glory, and all his angels with him, and that he is gathering all nations before him to separate all people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats.
That's the Son of Man you're thinking of, not the mayor of NYC.

Opinion | Zohran Mamdani drops the mask
The mayor-elect divides New Yorkers into two groups: the oppressed and their oppressors.

You know how some people think everything revolves around them, and they make every issue about themselves?

See also: “basket of deplorables” is the worst thing anyone has ever said about anyone else, while calling democrats and city dwellers the literal scum of the earth and hell spawn is completely fine. (Because they aren’t Real Americans or really even people, when you think about it.)
like that's the thing, I don't think they're insincere in being shocked that all of a sudden normie dems are baying for their blood. they thought the bounds of society would stop that from happening.
sorta ties into the same sheltered arguments against a lot of the post-war international order imo

I swear I wrote this with the show paused, and I hadn’t gotten to the point where they did literally and exactly this but without the name tag of course. lmao
Can you imagine someone on a morning show* in the US coming out of a "Time Machine" set to 1967 while wearing a swimmer's cap and having everyone laugh? I mean, even if they had a Harold Holt name tag, maybe two people in the room get the gag.

I was watching an Australian panel show, and as part of a bit one of the presenters "time traveled" back to 1861 and came out of the Time Machine wearing a Union soldier's cap, and the panel and entire audience laughed in recognition.

Every time I'm ending a call with someone in a callcenter/an office receptionist/etc and they ask if there's anything else they can do for me, I reply "Yes there is: you can have yourself a wonderful day" and I've had people laugh, cry, say thank you, and sometimes all three.
i say thank you to the bus driver when i get on and yell thank you when i get off every day i ride the bus, and i take two buses to and from work, being nice and friendly costs you nothing and should be your default expectation for yourself because it improves your day and everyone else’s day
Being nice to people is just fun. Asked young server at taco place how her day was going (fine but tired) and she asked me back. I said I managed to finish my to-do list and she unexpectedly gave me a high five! Treating people like people is always rewarding.

Because this came up at work today:
My Grand United Theory of Architecture boils down to "What is least likely to end up with me sobbing with frustration on a Zoom call at 3am on a Saturday morning?”
That’s it. Go forth and design systems with that in mind and sleep peacefully (🤞).

Hey, so if you're thinking about donating some of your kids toys to a thrift shop after Christmas, it would be waaay more helpful to donate them now. I think a lot of Christmas shopping is going to happen at thrift stores this year - having them well stocked early is gonna help.
