I saw this picture of a mother in Ukraine with her child carrying a rifle and it made me think of the gun-fucker who posed with a rifle for graduation. They could not be more different. One carries a gun out of need the other for shallow cheesecake fame

You know the gun-fuckers all imagine themselves in scenarios where they gleefully murder hundreds of fellow Americans for a political disagreement while the woman on the left is fighting a real extant existential threat to her country. She defends democracy while they threaten it

Do you ever notice the gun fuckers carry their rifles in relatively safe places? Like Starbucks. So long as the National Guard is not there, Ohio State seems a relatively safe place. They carry them because making other people nervous gets their rocks off

You know how they say if youyou're fighting with this person that person and now you're fighting with another person and then yet another person, it's not them: it's probably you. We've all heard that. That's not how it works for black women on Twitter.

Someone could tweet the most harmless little story about walking her dog and along comes Mr Karen to make it about about him and about race. I say Karen because he's obsessed with those two syllables and punctuates his sentences with them like a Minnesotan with donchaknow.

But that's not the only whitesplainer heard from. Now, is it really the woman tweeting while Black at fault or is it the coterie of the racially aggrieved out looking for a tussle to display their racist bona fides to their sheetmates?

Damn this fucking prosecutor WHO MADE SUCH A DEAL
lawandcrime.com/crime/judge-al…

Notice how the headline blames the judge. The judge is wrong to accept the deal, but judges usually accept deals. The deal was made by prosecutors.

This is a recurring mistake made by the media probably because prosecutors do press releases and judges don't. They take the release at face value and don't pay attention to how the prosecutors shift blame to the judge.

Our Constitution has many defects, the worst of them being how very undemocratic its amplification of small states is. For that reason, the method of reforming or replacing the US constitution guarantees that a Constitutional Convention would only make things worse.

Each state sends an equal number of people to the ConCon and Republicans control most state assemblies that would be choosing the representatives. We would lose many constitutional protections and gain theorcraccy.

Now Koch has been funding efforts to get a ConCon for years because he wants to get rid of environmental regulations so he wants to attack the commerce clause. The six on the Court that will eviscerate abortion rights are there to eviscerate the commerce clause, too.

It's true that racism plays a role in the world's overwhelming response to Ukraine's plight while disregarding Yemen, the Rohingya, and umpteen other catastrophes around the world. Absolutely.

But there is also more to it.

After WW2, there was hope that we were done with European wars. Of course, there were the Balkan Wars, but they were in a way, civil wars. Intra-familial disputes about the division of Yugoslavia. And of course, they ended up a proxy Russo-Euro conflict in the end.

I think, though, that this is more a result of antipathy to Putin occasioned by his relentless interference with Western democracies. His pushing for Brexit, support for LePen and other authoritarians across Europe. His love of Trump in the US

I do not believe the women did not know about Jennie's FB posts regarding George Floyd. Meredith tracked who liked what tweet on social media and hired a detective. When those women fight so much about social media likes and retweets, don't tell me they didn't read posts.

This means Mary had every reason in the world to be hostile to Jennie. Her hostility is not inexplicable & it's some vicious gaslighting for these women to pretend otherwise. At the very least, Meredith, the social media inspector, knew. She is not the type to keep it to herself

Lisa Barlow is not my favorite person but she's getting a bad rap on the questioning the memorial thing. It's clear when she made the call to Meredith from the bus, she thought she was calling her at the memorial. She apologized for it.
