Good thing the right wing media they relentlessly consume doesn't constantly invent things to be afraid of.

As a parent of a teenager who has tonic-clonic seizures (aka grand mal), this story made me nauseous. A patient recovering from a seizure has absolutely no ability to respond or understand what's going on. Police should be helping and making sure he's on his side, not tasing him. Whoever these cops are should be fired immediately. I hope Mr Frankel bankrupts the department.

Also leaving zero time for screening of chromosomal defects. What a horrible place to try to start a family.

Not that easy when it's a fleet of servers in multiple remote data centers. Lots of IT folks will be spending their weekend sitting in data center cages.

Shouldn't conservatives be outraged that they stopped at age 18? The text in the 2nd amendment doesn't have an age limit. Aren't toddlers "people"? Logically the fucked up conservative courts should be ruling that babies can buy any gun they want. Because in their stupid world, the "well regulated" words have no meaning.

It's infuriating that people have forgotten about how utterly horrid trump was as president. From disbanding the NSC pandemic unit which led to a bungled COVID response, pretending COVID was no big deal (leading to hundreds of thousands of unnecessary deaths compared to other leading economies), crashing the economy leading to massive inflation by running it hot and gutting tax revenues (the Economist was warning about this in 2018), and of course leading an insurrection against the United States. HOW FUCKING STUPID ARE PEOPLE WHO VOTE FOR THIS TURD?!?!?!?

WSJ this morning. The last bit is a stunning self own after Cannon flushed the last remaining parts of the justice system down the toilet today.

"Leaders on both sides need to stop describing the stakes of the election in apocalyptic terms. Democracy won't end if one or the other candidate is elected. Fascism is not aborning if Mr. Trump wins, unless you have little faith in American institutions."

Seems appropriate to drop this here:

https://encyclopedia.ushmm.org/content/en/article/the-reichstag-fire

On February 27, 1933, the German parliament (Reichstag) building burned down. The Nazi leadership and its coalition partners used the fire to claim that Communists were planning a violent uprising. They claimed that emergency legislation was needed to prevent this. The resulting act, commonly known as the Reichstag Fire Decree, abolished a number of constitutional protections and paved the way for Nazi dictatorship.

He doesn’t look like a movie star. He doesn’t act like one, either. And if a role requires DeVito to disrobe and get ‘greased up like a halibut,’ so be it.
