They didn’t say anything about Trump, they said she had no shot of winning the primary, which is true. She was on track to lose every single state, including California, where she was a sitting senator. If you think describing polling data from a 5 year old primary is somehow saying Kamala is, “worse than Trump,” you should log off for a while, maybe take a walk or something.

His, “opposition,” is going to be other Democratic primary challengers. Can you at least wait until there’s a nominee before you start in with the, “Oh, you want the Republicans to win!?!?” bullshit?

I mean, this case is so blatantly meritless that it’s a pretty bad sign that they even took it. You would have to intentionally misinterprete both the spirit and letter of the 14th Amendment to even begin to believe that the EO is constitutional, and every lower court has come to that conclusion. There’s really no reason for them to not decline the case and let the lower courts’ decisions stand.

Also, their earlier decision to limit lower courts power to grant national injunctions means they’ve functionally ruled in this cases’ favor once already. I would like to think that even a court as nakedly partisan as this one wouldn’t let a President’s EO overrule the Constitution, but so far, the signs aren’t good.

The only reason Newsom has had any interest from the broader electorate is that he was outspoken in opposing Trump. The minute he enters the primary and starts spouting the same valueless, donor-approved, corporate drivel as Kamala, Jefferies, Schumer, etc., he’s going to flame out fast.

My old biology teacher used to say, “evolution only works as well as it needs to.” Rabbits digestive systems are so inefficient they have to eat their own shit just to get enough nutrients. Hyena clitoris are so large they sometimes suffocate their offspring during birth. You’re mouth is full of vestigial molars that will likely require surgery in your lifetime. None of those things matter, as long as your genes are successfully being passed down effectively

Panda’s have a digestive system that’s not well suited to their diet, and they’ve adapted to that mostly through behavioral changes. Since they don’t have kind of stomachs that efficiently digest plant matter (like a cow’s four-chamber stomach), they’re constantly hunting for different types of bamboo to get the nutrients they need. They eat young bamboo shoots of one species in the spring, then migrate to higher elevations to get the shoots of another. Both shoots lack calcium, so they migrate again in late summer to get more mature plants calcium-rich leaves.

One weird physical adaptation they’ve developed is in their pregnancies. They mate in the springtime, but fetuses require lots of calcium to develop, so females embryos basically get, “paused,” neither developing or dying, until later in the season when they have more calcium in their diet.

Anyway, I guess my point is that evolution did fix the pandas digestive system to work with plants. It’s just that, like most of evolution’s fixes, it’s a solution that’s barely held together by duct tape and hope, and it could fall apart at any minute.

Yeah, of course they’re fucking plummeting, there’s no plan or structure to these tariffs. You can’t just put tariffs on everything and expect manufacturing to return to the U.S. You might be able to get automakers to reshore car manufacturing if you put tariffs on foriegn-made cars, but if you’re also putting tariffs on imported steel, then they’re not going to spend hundreds of millions of dollars to build plants in the U.S. just to spend more on materials. They’re just going to charge people more for cars.

Yeah, but Pandas aren’t herbivores, they’re vegetarians. They’re too slow and clumsy to actually hunt prey, so the only thing they can catch is bamboo (which is the fastest growing plant, so I guess that’s something…sort of…). Anyway, the point is, Pandas as a species are from a family of predators, and they would absolutely eat meat if you gave it to them.

Birds? No. Though, even on the side they do often have a tilt toward frontal in a lot of predatory birds. It could be argued…

Birds of prey absolutely have their eyes positioned on the front of their heads. It’s most obvious in owls, since they have the largest eyes and wider faces, but all of them have front-facing eyes for binocular vision.

A) The Constitution is perfectly capable of dealing with someone like Trump, but the our elected officials are too cowardly and self-interested to use it to remove him from power.

B) Our extremely partisan Supreme Court is undermining the clear and well defined restrictions placed on the presidency by the Constitution. Again, the Constitution has remedies for this, but the cowards who are deeply entrenched in our seats of power refuse to use them.

C) No one with this facial hair should be treated seriously (with the exception of Santa Claus).

Alright. I’ve decided I’ll no longer follow the Controlled Substances Act, because I guess laws are just suggestions now.

Damn, must be nice to live in a country where powerful people face consequences for their actions.

Actually, that’s almost exactly right. The writers consider the Golden Age as ending on season 9, episode 2, The Principal and the Pauper. That would basically mean only 8 seasons of Golden Age episodes. Out of 36 seasons, the Golden Age makes up only 22% of the show, leaving 78% of it unwatchable.

True, but it was pretty common in old movies for someone to go down to a hotel lobby and have the clerk say, “Sir, this came for you,” then hand them a message where every 3rd word was, “stop.” It didn’t make much sense to me, but I didn’t think it was made up for the movies.

Calling bullshit on this. I never received a telegraph, but I never assumed they were made up for the movies. This kid is either a troll or a moron.

The Romans didn’t even use it. It’s from a French painting of Rome that became popular after the revolution. It existed for barely a hundred years, and was hardly used by anyone, until it was adopted by fascists and Nazis.

I would let Beaker take them first and watch what happens.

Scientists: One desperate plan we are considering to combat climate change is a series of gigantic mirrors to deflect sunlight away from the planet.

These assholes: OK, but what if, like, the opposite of that?

Well, fuck.

You’ve got to find a way to check out a little. If you try to stay in top of this shit 24/7 you’ll have a breakdown. A little time to focus on something, anything, that gives you joy is important.

There’s so much terrible news all the time, I legitimately don’t know if we’ve threatened to attack Nigeria or not
