Is that... an official Apple product?

Either way, what an absolute find ❤️

The thing I really hate is that I genuinely believe they are hoping for a terrorist attack to help build support for brutalizing elderly taco truck workers

Don’t worry, when you get to the mud room you will discover it’s actually two bathtubs

It is very hard to conceive how much cleaner cities are now than they were in the late 1800s

Not saying cars are excellent pollution-wise, but 150,000 horses in a place the size of Manhattan or London have a colossal environmental footprint

Another aspect of this is the difference in environmental impact and pollution with urban horses and cars:

They don't go into health impacts there but I can't imaging that breathing clouds of manure dust was great for the ol' lungs

not to mention the corpses

I think maybe you've been watching too many films, sir.

I think that at some point the pressure to act will become too difficult to ignore.

You can do a lot more, and more cleanly, if you end the filibuster

I mean there's a reason why "charismatic, brash, and has no beliefs other than 'gimmie'" is so effective. Good con artists are... really effective at conning people.

I suspect that just about everyone on earth could be taken by the right con artist at the right time.

I guess the loophole is that we can, ultimately, decide to ignore the Constitution if we want. Could enough voters write Trump in to grant him an EV majority for a 3rd term? I mean, it’s possible. What happens then? I don’t know!

The Constitution can’t stop us from screwing up self-governance.

Even the "liberal firebrands" like AOC and Sanders and Mamdani... they largely talk about economic issues. "You should be able afford a place to live," "you should be able to buy food," "you should be able to afford the doctor" and so on

I hope he at least gets his name on a donors' plaque in the new ballroom

my dude the primary is in like seven months, now is the time for all this to happen, it is literally what the primary system is for

I like how Iger can't imagine Ben Solo being alive but had no problem with "Palpatine All Along"
