This ain’t it Andrew

This is probably as far away from “it” as you can get, without actually saying you think Shane Gillis is a harmless good guy who made a few mistakes
Oh wait
Hope you’re reading this Andrew👇
And this
Gillis has shown himself repeatedly to be not just an anti-Asian racist (because he knows he can “get away with it”) but a misogynist, homophobe and mocker of the disabled.

The man is trash and Asians don’t get to give him a pass on all the different ways he put himself in jail.

For anyone trying a “boys will be boys”/“this happened decades ago” defense of Kavanaugh, the clearly impeachable offense is that he almost certainly perjured himself multiple times during his confirmation hearings
Blatant perjury:
Probable perjury (that he only heard of the allegations from the New Yorker article):

Some white people really would rather go down in a death spiral clinging to the burning fuselage of the bigoted past than give up the right to use racist slurs
As it says in the Declaration of Independence, white folk are endowed with certain unalienable Rights, among these are Life, Liberty and the right to scream “GOOK”
Apparently a fake account. You were right, @JeffSalamon—your BS detector is on point as usual

The thought that this provokes is: Nah
The question isn’t whether there is a “progressive majority,” because demographics and polls both show this to exist (albeit not in a continuum across all issues). It’s whether that majority can be motivated to come out at scale, despite massive vote suppression by GOP machines.
This kind of ideation pushes the idea that Democrats can only run and win with moderates, while Republicans run more and more extreme and partisan candidates. It is, in and of itself, amazingly regressive.

ero 🔞 namjoon voice: just eat me
@eron_less
nsfw but namkook with namjoon who's too big and jungkook who's been crushing for so long and finally, finally manages to hook up with namjoon at a party, both of them stumbling into a back room and locking the door behind them, clumsily tearing off clothes.
their lips are pressed together and jungkook breathes him in, tastes namjoon's breath on his tongue and feels it in his lungs. he wants to feel namjoon even deeper, and tells him so. "want you to fuck me," he gasps against namjoon's lips.
namjoon groans, his grip on jungkook's waist tightening. "yeah," he agrees. namjoon's hands slip lower, gripping jungkook's thighs just under the swell of his ass, pulling him towards the bed until they topple down onto it, still tangled together.

I have reached a whole new level of #PISSEDOFF.

I didnt think such a #dark and #scary state, or level, could be reached. It may top 12-14-17's causation. It's. That. Bad. So, I've prepared a statement...

docs.google.com/document/d/1_J…

#PascoSheriff #HaveYouAllNoShame @CigarCityBeer
Dear @FBI,
I must implore you ask your colleauges in @FBITampa to help research this new level of #PISSEDOFFNESS. As locals, they may offer a special indepth knowledge of this new level I have reached. This is not fair & law enforcement must #investigate. No one deserves this.
This is my #apogee of #Pissedoffness.
If #motherfuckers & #tears werent a noticable level.
If #HUSH or #INTIMIDATION tactics being deployed didnt strike a chord.
If #EVIDENCE, PROOF, or 30k Bonds didnt #WOW YOU.
If posting mom with no shred of investigatable value wasnt enough...

Out today! My new, chart-rich paper on trade, globalization & US public opinion:
cato.org/publications/f…
So now a thread on why I wrote this paper - the data for which were surprisingly difficult to gather (thanks, @pewresearch, @Gallup, @ChicagoCouncil, etc for the help!) - and what it reveals /2
The malleability of US public opinion on trade is something I first noticed years ago (and briefly discussed in this paper from 2011: cato.org/publications/f…). Trade polls have long fluctuated depending on politics, rhetoric & the economy. /3

Before I lose the idea. R76 and wax museum challenge.
I'm thinking Jack as a journalist, challenged to do the "one night in a wax museum" thing. (Since he lost a bet in his journalist company).

His boss wants a segment of his experience or something so Jack takes a vid camera, sleeping bag, notebooks and some necessities
His bet requires him to set up in the 'murderers' section for maximum fear factor and what not. Jack admits he's a little scared cause everything looks so real.

One of the statues is a guy called Gabriel Reyes. The story was that he murdered people around the city.

Almost all of the Road Runner cartoons are available via the @BoomerangToons app.

I subscribed for $5 & decided I'm gonna watch & tweet about 'em all in chronological order, even the later, terrible ones, for which I have an irrational affection.

Here we go.

Boomerang lists them alphabetically not chronologically so Chuck Jones masterpieces sit side-by-side with 1960s atrocities (& later 'revival' attempts.)

I am going to start at the beginning. I will also be including Wile E. Coyote/Bugs Bunny & Ralph Wolf/Sam Sheepdog shorts, FYI
September 17, 1949: "Fast And Furry-ous"

Chuck Jones intended this short to be a parody of cat & mouse "chase" cartoons. Instead, he accidentally created the definitive chase cartoon series of all time.
