Beginning to question the legitimacy of the entire process. Feels like we’re just snatching up poor people and criminalizing them for being the wrong skin tone.

I mean, he’s not entirely wrong. Part of the magic of gerrymandering is that it takes ten years to work these suits through the courts and maybe ten minutes for a legislature to sidestep a ruling. Plenty of states had been playing dodgeball with the VRA years before it was formally gutted.

At the same time, nobody loves to fold a winning hand more than the Democrats. So while I’ve been promised new maps that pretty much guarantee +5 House pickups across the state, I’m not holding my breath. These are the same idiots and assholes who passed on two free Senators and a house seat or two from DC Statehood back in 2009. And then, again, in 2021.

We could well see the end of the filibuster under Donald Trump after a minor inconvenience, after Democrats defended the GOP ability to bottle up legislation for decades prior.

Mad Max: Fury Road

One of the better action movies of the modern era

Unfortunately, not confined to a single party.

Carter replacing Nixon/Ford, Clinton taking office in the wake of Iran-Contra and the S&L Crash, Obama coming in after a slew of scandals under Bush/Cheney, and Biden coming in under Trump 1 all sang the same song. Everyone seems ready to pass the buck, for fear that a future administration might use prosecutorial powers against them in turn. Nobody seems to care that the next office-holder’s corruption and power hording might upend their legacy or threaten their livelihoods.

Nancy Mace’s fixation on her transgender colleague, combined with her stubborn reluctance to interrogate the files of a heavily trafficked high profile human trafficker, absolutely screams “Skeletons in the Closet”.

I remember when Mark Foley and Dennis Hastert were making all the same noises about gay men back in the Bush Era.

If Diviner Wizards could force reroll on the random encounter table, it would be the most powerful class in the game.

Love the morning pee boner, where it seems like your dick is trying to ruin the start of your day

Doing bottom surgery entirely to pee consistently

I have no idea why you jumped to it from millionaires needing to be taxed more.

But if you think knitting as a profession is some kind of joke, why would you defend people from taxation when they were profiteering off the textile work of others?

Or are you just saying people should take up knitting

Man, don’t even get me started on the fast fashion industry. We’re killing the planet so that we can turn raw cotton into landfill waste on the backs of East Asian slave labor.

If we could end that by telling Jeff Bezos and Chip Wilson to take up knitting? Yes, absolutely.

Save the planet. Shut down Temu and lock Colin Huang in an oubliete until he darns everyone else a decent sweater.

People might say they could live on less, but doing things is expensive.

Doing things is expensive because people with million dollar a year incomes make it expensive. That’s where the million/year comes from.

To talk to Daddy

He might have soft censored the correct spelling and now needs to tiptoe around it

Sort of like how he bans anyone who uses “cisgender”

Why would he stop? His brain is pudding and he just got handed $1T

Druid: “Okay, can you explain what has happened?”

Druid Spell Target: “Oh, absolutely. But you need to do me one favor, first.”

Druid: “Anything, just name it.”

Druid Spell Target: “EXTINGUISH ME!!!”

5 hp left, but I’ve got 30 AC. What are they going to do? Roll 20s?

Ah, balls.
