All time great YouTube ad when you remember that they’re trying to sell a “lifetime membership” for a service run by a guy in the Mitch McConnell limbo between life and death.

A “liberal media bubble” that reasonably approximates empirical reality is clearly preferable to the conspiratorial funhouse mirror-world of the right. I don’t get why it’s so hard for many scolds to admit this!

It’s the 4th of July and the 250th anniversary of America’s founding. That means we are 1/4th of the way to a 1000 year celebration like the one orchestrated by Phillip the Arab at the height of the third century crisis

Continually amazed at how conservatives see the most isolating and alienating aspects of American culture as not just acceptable but as the ideal. The concept of any type of community horrifies them

I’m excited to read this forthcoming book by an excellent scholar, but I’m concerned about what looks like a (partially?) AI-generated promo image. Props to
@drchristinah.bsky.social
for helping determine that this can’t correspond to any ancient statue, & that certain details seem pretty fake.

Republicans get a lot of criticism for becoming a post-Truth party that is dishonest at every level but the same is often true for centrists. This story she is relating never happened and she feels no shame at all in just making it up

It was 5-4 on the constitutional question and the fact you are unable to recognise this as a problem is why you are unfit for the purpose. You have to go.

I have never in my life heard anyone on the right say “we need a strong left in this country” and I wouldn’t expect them to either. They know we are their enemies and act accordingly but liberals cannot stop advocating for conservatives because at best they think liberalism is only half correct

NYT hosting Rufo right as the hate campaign against Haitian immigrants that he directed culminates in the Supreme Court’s barbaric decision against them is a conscious choice. They’re absolutely rubbing it in our faces at this point

Great day in DC. Drinking a $25 glass of raw milk and listening to a Drowning Pool cover band. Earlier, Steven Crowder asked me to body slam him while he was dressed like Greta Thunberg for some reason. Again! Again! He kept demanding. EPIC!

We had moderates. They gave us decades of disastrous foreign policy, eviscerated social safety nets, soaring inequality, privatization, managed decline, and a party so terrified of confrontation that it treated rising fascism as a messaging problem instead of an existential threat.

The crisis of the third century peaked after the capture of Valerian when Rome entered its most volatile period in its history. Rebellion and disorder culminated in the succession of western provinces into a new Gallic Empire
