      I think if people are going to indicate “breaking” news by capitalization, preceding with “BREAKING!” or “🚨” etc, they should have to go change it to be normal after a few hours.

        The democrats commitment to the bit is something to behold. This action is staggeringly awful. It’s not just worse than useless it’s destructive I figure it appeals to maybe ~1% of the voters that might vote dem. If this incredibly dumb hail mary fails - it’s fucking hilarious. But if it succeeds it’s even funnier. The dems have given GOP SCOTUS a precedent to meddle in state elections!

        some of the bush appointees and occasionally one of the trump guys are enough procedure perverts that they make ok rulings once in a while. although sometimes it’s backhanded like one of the ones that was good for indigenous sovereignty was also good for some long-term corpo bullshit the neocons are trying to do.
