Scott is a bag of shit, but the nominee for SoS is Florida's other senator Marco Rubio (who is also a bag of shit).

Not exactly an iconic line, but I love the delivery:

"Have you heard of the Monks of Deshuba?"

Fry: "I've... not heard of them."

Futurama's great for nerdy science gags, social satire, and pop culture spoofs, but its best jokes are always uniquely stupid twists of language like this.

Maybe sticky one early announcement and then another one right before it starts?

Democratic presidents since LBJ:

  • Jimmy Carter
  • Bill Clinton
  • Barack Obama

Which ones had a bigger record of progressive economic accomplishments than Biden? Closest one is Obama, but his Recovery Act was less than half the size of Biden's Rescue/Infra/IRA/CHIPS packages. Biden was also more strongly pro-union and pro-regulation, and accomplished his many wins in half the time and with far narrower majorities in both houses.

This would be a compelling argument if the Biden administration hadn't been the most economically progressive since LBJ.

He used his platform to claim that murdered children were fake and that the parents were "crisis actors". He so roiled his audience with blatantly false inflammatory bullshit that they began harassing the parents and sending them death threats, all for the crime of having their kindergartens shot to death in America. They absolutely suffered and the blame for their harassment lies entirely with that fucking sociopath (who has since admitted that yes, the massacre was real).

You can't knock that boy over with a pail of water!

Might make sense to post these a few hours ahead of time to give people a chance to see it...

Fuck that. Did the Sandy Hook parents deserve to have their murdered children used as fodder for Jones's conspiracy bullshit?

Reminds me of this really interesting video on the Mississippi Delta Chinese community -- folks who are entirely of Chinese descent but who have thick Southern drawls and names like Gilroy, and still feel like outsiders despite living there their whole lives.

I laughed my ass off at the pathetic, baseless attempts to dispute the 2020 election, but never questioned their legal right to do so (which they failed miserably at). If suspicious Harris supporters believe they have convincing evidence of manipulation, then let their claims be examined and proven or disproven by a recount or in a court of law. Call it copium, but I'd rather check these claims out and be disappointed than pre-emptively assume they're bullshit.
