Tay sway has been media trained since she was a child. She’s a product and she knows it. Roan was playing on a keyboard in the park not that long ago and she hasn’t figured out that she will go crazy trying to manage her fame like she is.
This is either some wild optimism or accelerationism.
Gay rights activists got started in the 1970’s and in the 80’s they got homosexuality taken off the list of mental disorders and in the 90’s it looked like Hawaii was going to legalize same sex marriage and then the conservatives took notice and passed the defense of marriage act and Bill Clinton signed it (yes, a Democrat) and then Iowa and Massachusetts courts legalized it at the state level in the 00’s and for 10 years we watched court cases and ballot measures go state by state and then in 2014 we got obergefell.
Republicans did not get us marriage equality, Democrats did. Republicans opposed it at every step. Even obergefel would not have happened if Clinton had not won and picked some SC justices. Clinton had a Republican house and Senate and he was more concerned with avoiding a government shutdown. Defense of marriage act was a Republican bill. Don’t ask don’t tell was a compromise with Republicans. Obama repealed don’t ask don’t tell after Dems took the white house and both houses of Congress.
It matters who is in charge, every year, every election. And the Republican hasn’t been the progressive option since teddy Roosevelt left the Republicans to form the bull moose party.
So acting like we need to punish the Democrats for not opposing netanyahu by electing Republicans is literally throwing Palestinians and poc and queer people and poor people under the bus for your own self rightiousness.
I also misread your comment as pro-trans, but we DO need more trains! So keep bringing it up, you are doing good work.
Income, life expectancy, healthcare access. Union membership. Cali home prices are unaffordable because people want to live there and are willing to pay for it.
Abortion was illegal for 70-120 years depending on the state. It was 50ish years from the progressive era and the beginning of birth control to the ruling of Roe. Overturning roe was a 50 year political project by the right.
Sometimes it takes a lifetime.
Assuming this is a centrist take is part of why she is pissed off. She isn’t endorsing because she opposes genocide and Dems treatment of trans people.
Dems are too far right for her and people are acting like she is saying trump has his good points.
She needs to get off the internet. She has more dumbasses and trolls now than she had total fans 2 years ago and she doesn’t know how to handle it.
They are just declaring their neighbors illegitimate and marching in like Putin.
I can say that unqualified judges generally cause the corruption more than the qualified ones.
Hijacking a plane wouldn’t be enough. Plane highjackings were nothing new. They were even common back in the 60’s. Conventional wisdom was you cooperate with the highjackers. They have to land eventually.
Nobody anticipated suicide highjackers.
2001 you could use a pay phone to stay anonymous.
Oil companies objectifying lesbians to pinkwash the tar sands.
Lesbians are great, this add is gross.
To be fair to us, the brain worm guy dropped out.
Steam never showed me this game. It said I have never played a game like it.
I’ve played arpgs, tactical RPGs, and crpgs,
What more do you need steam?
Pixel RPGs? Western RPGs?
I guess steam thinks the target audience is people that played Red Dead Redemption on steam.
Technically, the carbon came from the air and returns to the air, but taking the pellets from where the tree died and turning them into pellets and transporting them to the furnace costs energy too.
Also all the tree carbon that doesn’t make it into the pellets goes into the air. So the cost is greater than the gain.
If we grew trees and then buried them it could be a form of carbon capture. But we need to get the energy to do that from somewhere.
Yeah, the naval base is the big thing.
For Ukraine, it’s about the principle of the matter. Taking Crimea back would mean “we are a real country and you can’t push us around.”
Just the dirt is worth a lot. Even if Russia conducted a genocide without anyone noticing, and all the buildings flat.
Most of us don’t worship our dads.
We have some good memories and some bad ones. I know I do. Walz reminds me, and I think a lot of other people, of the good memories of my dad. My dad is a flawed human being that struggled to do the right thing sometimes but he did struggle, and I love him for the things he taught me and the good memories he left me.
That’s warm fuzzies, not worship
He’s not. He’s 80 years old and got going when kissing babies was good retail politics. He whispers to children because he has lost 3 of his 4 children and his first wife and he knows how precious children and families are.
That’s called a taint squeeze.
