  • My first thoughts of Al-Sharaa was that he was serious about reform from the Assad regime. I realized I haven't followed up much on how things are going though, so if y'all wanna correct me go for it.

  • Carney's Liberal party wins Canadian election and completes a stunning turnaround fueled by Trump

  • Idk if you're a nerd, but Brian Klass is a contemporary political scientist who actually challenges this, and yet still affirms a determinist lense. His latest book is on his chaos theory that I think can be helpful navigating our current world.

    Here's his big think interview if you're interested!

    One way to think of this is that we can't predict the future with what we know of the past because the "rules" are constantly changing. One example is an academic paper that was written that said middle eastern dictatorships were especially stable in comparison to others, but then a year later the Arab Spring occurs. His take is that the author wasn't wrong- based on all the information of the past it made sense that these dictatorships were not going away anytime soon, but what happened was the world changed making those assumptions moot.

    So the idea that European democracies are inherently stable isn't necessarily a given, and as our world is drastically changing, our tools to gauge the health of a democracy are becoming less and less relevant.

  • At the end of the day it all comes down to the role of the dice.

  • It's not a contest. Look at the contouring, elegant. Look at the polish, shining as bright as Versailles. The tong length has the perfection of a Swiss watch.

    Then the functionality- the flared handle provides the user with the comfort usually reserved for oil barons in hospice. The longer tongs serve as an homage to the engineers who brought humanity to the moon.

    Every other fork is merely a blight on the earth in comparison to this Adonis of cutlerian perfection.

  • Elon Musk decimated the government and saved almost nothing

    Jump

  • I mean I've been told this is the year to fudge on your taxes since the IRS is fucked so I mean maybe there's some silver lining. Frankly Elon isn't as bad as- hold on someone's knocking on my door, I'll be back in a bit.

  • SHOCK POLL: AOC a Close Second Place Behind Kamala Harris in 2028 Democratic Primary

    Jump

  • Welcome to American politics, when the 2028 election begins in 2024 and the 2028 primary began in 2020.

    I'm so tired.

  • Sadly I think he's going to be a martyr like Alexi Navalny. The 1% is patient, and they know they can distract us and grind us down. We can raise hell for a moment, but they know our weakness is our stomaches.

  • Poll Has AOC Leading Schumer by Nearly 20 Points in 2028 New York Primary

    Jump

  • My hope is that more "quiet Democrats" get primary'd. Usually they would say "don't primary me, you'll risk losing us to the Republican candidate in the general and we have a moderate agenda that's the lesser evil".

    Right now they don't have an agenda at all, no rudder, no direction. This is the time to primary tf out of the old Dems.

  • I'm going too! Making some puppets to hold signs with in support of PBS funding and unions. I recently learned how to work with felt and want to use my new skill for good.

    I'm thinking signs could be:

    "Have you learned NOTHING from sesame Street?"

    "This is not very Mr. Rogers of you Donald"

    "That's not how we treat our neighbors" with a cutout of Mr. Rogers

    "Even puppets can recognize that clown"

    any additional ideas welcome!

  • Also didn't the Supreme Court just rule that you can't charge the president for crimes made in their official capacity? He can just say it was in his official capacity to ignore the orders so tough titties.

  • ‘He’s underwater on everything:’ Fox News host breaks down Trump approval polling

    Jump

  • Idk I've always noticed he doesn't give AF about reality. He just lies and if called out he just doubles down on his lies until he breaks the electorate and he gets elected again.

    I used the same strategy to hide that I was smoking weed to my parents.
