Historian of French Revolution here to say that in periods like this, squeamish compromisers do as much to drive radicalization as do ideologues. If you keep making excuses for the unfit king, eventually folks come for you and him.

Jeremiah is fucking FEASTING on these public records requests and i’m here for it

MeToo pushed a few big-name bad actors out of their positions, but it did very little to grapple with the systems and the cultures and the people that empowered those bad actors and allowed them to operate with impunity.

This woman is cool as shit already, and then you find out she could staff an entire jazz quintet herself (plays piano, guitar, bass guitar, drums, and trumpet). Excuse me??

espn decided this was an urgent matter they should push to the Home Screen of your phone asap instead of the inane ramblings of an elderly fascist with soggy cardboard for brains

Hegseth needs to stand trial after this as a war criminal. Between this attack and the girls' school, there's no ambiguity. He is responsible for mass murder and must be held accountable.
