I think tonight is a night for my yearly rewatch of one of the few perfect movies ever made. I'll die on this hill. It's not even my favorite of theirs, but it's the most perfect one.

This is a true & effectively irrefutable argument ... which is why it's so fun to read the absolute cosmic nonsense in the comments.

"I need to go higher than the speed limit when I'm passing/avoiding something/driving in snow/feel like it!"
My least popular (and most correct) view is that cars should be automatically limited to the local speed limit. Put the pedal to the floor and you still can't go over 25mph in a residential area.

(15 in Manhattan btw)
There is no possible justification for limiting e-bikes to 15mph but not cars.

I think it’s also true that loneliness among women has historically been treated as an individual problem, while loneliness among men is treated as a societal problem. That, in turn, comes from an assumption that women are supposed to earn the company of others while men are entitled to it.
men’s loneliness gets “more airtime”?

baby I have lived the past three decades of my life witnessing corporate media elevate men’s loneliness into a full-blown balls-to-the-wall CRISIS once every 4-5 years

“more airtime” is hilarious

One under-appreciated part of this: note the bit below about “and their dependents.”

Under the Trump admin’s new policy, dependent children of visa applicants are not allowed to have their social media set to private during the entire visa process. They MUST make their social media public.

"that's okay with me, it's up to them" is so funny to me for some reason
Trump, at signing: “I always thought it should be the SI, Supreme Intelligence, but, I guess somewhere along the line they decided to put the word artificial, that’s okay with me, it’s up to them. It’s a massive industry.”

one thing I think we shouldn't lose sight of: these people are stupid, their ideas are bad, they are always wrong about everything. there is no mea culpa big enough to erase the fact that they have a child's understanding of the world and their vision for the future is not worth taking seriously
Since tariffs, I noticed a surprising trend: elite Trump supporters saying they might have made a mistake. So I asked them what they were thinking, both in November and today.

One big takeaway: they thought Elon was actually competent. That error proved catastrophic.

Some elite Trump supporters are having regrets. We asked them why.
After the tariffs, they’re worried they made a MAGA mistake.

I'm quite confident both sides actually desire this to an extent, though mostly for reasons distinct from one another--the right wants to kill "criminals" and further entrench an authoritarian hierarchy based on race (and class, despite most being too stupid to recognize it)
it's genuinely wild how much conservative literature is basically desiring this as an outcome

i was reading kurt's latest fiction book earlier

This is playful hyperbole, but it's basically impossible to overstate how exquisitely repulsive any and all "manosphere" aura is to women. Just ugly little boys crying angrily in a corner somewhere. Grow up, learn how to cook, wear clothes that fit, be kind to others.

Too vague. "LOCK THEM UP" is literally all you need. Dems don't want to win though
just spitballing here: a good slogan for dems in 2026 or 2028 might be BAN SCAMS

And thus electoralism isn’t the sole path to be taken. Without militancy of the left in this country nothing will be accomplished. The capitalists have a militant right wing backing them

Antisemitism is a lot like Qanon child abuse conspiracies in that there’s this real and bad phenomenon and, parallel to that, what can only be described as a large scale mass psychosis about a mostly fictional version of the same phenomenon

none of these people are "hard" they're the softest losers around who like to posture by going after the targets least able to defend themselves, this is literally the schoolyard bully who wanted to be considered a badass because he spent the lunch break torturing butterflies
Your regular reminder that there is absolutely nothing "hard" or "tough" about targeting the poorest, most vulnerable, and least able to defend themselves groups of people on the entire planet

It's not their fault. Democrats don't have some magic lever they can pull. They couldn't and can't actually do anything about this situation. Nonetheless, it's very important you keep voting for them so they can do something about this situation.
