It turns out we took the wrong approach during Kavanaugh's confirmation process. If we had spent less time focusing on the credible allegations of sexual assault against him and more time claiming he wants to relax the Senate dress code, Susan Collins would have opposed him.

I don't care if his slogan is "Vote For Me Because Everyone Else Sucks", if he does the 1st debate in a Chewbacca costume, or if he dances around covered in red paint singing "Crazy Bitch" on TV: he's got my vote.
Been traveling Europe for 7 weeks; they are terrified here that a Repub will win.

I'll be voting for the guy who heard tfg say, "very fine people on both sides" and took it as a call to action. The guy who took over when there was no meaningful COVID response, revived the economy, strengthened NATO to oppose fascism and saved democracy from authoritarian takeover.

By the way, I'm still ever impressed that Zuckerberg, with endless financial capital and a huge slew of programming resources, managed to roll out a prodcuct with fewer features than Spoutible on day 1. Gotta hand it to these billionaires. They're killin it

I struggled with hate and bitterness for many years.
My father was assassinated, my paternal grandmother was assassinated, my uncle died mysteriously.
But I had to seek wellness or I would have been consumed.
I’m grateful that I learned that love is great fuel for justice.

As the man who raped and impregnated a 10-year-old girl is sentenced to prison, a tangential question lingers:
Will we hear from the conservatives who told the public last year that the crime had not actually happened?

Humiliating himself in front of the whole country with fake historical quotes is no obstacle to Josh Hawley continuing his Christian nationalist cherry-picking.
The bad news for him is that the the Constitution is a secular document that created a secular government. Period. Full stop.

I'd like to echo this about 5 times. It makes me sick how this is being reported.

Andrea Junker @StrandjunkerI know there is a lot going on, but when multi-billionaires like Zuckerberg, Musk, and Bezos control our most vital platforms for communication, it’s not a win for free speech. It’s a win for oligarchy.12:56 PM - Jul 06, 2023
Just thought I should remind everyone of that.

I wonder how we get Biden on here. He's only getting like 5k likes on Twitter anyway now that Elon Broke it

I, too, sing America...
Tomorrow,
I'll be at the table
When company comes.
Nobody'll dare
Say to me,
"Eat in the kitchen,"
Then.
Besides,
They'll see how beautiful I am
And be ashamed—
I, too, am America.

I can’t tell you how much I loathe when I give my professional opinion on Elon’s outright lie about limiting views to stop crawlers from scraping, and I get dismissed.
I mean, I’m just a software engineer who has worked on the web site of development and operations for 11 years. What do I know?
