Biden fell apart on his last answer. He is sinking and looks weak

Biden needs to distinguish billions and trillions FFS

Who had syntax falling apart on their bingo card? Is this a drinking game?

Why is Cheetofuck nodding when Biden is listing what he fucked up?

There are two FB pages in town that are fighting the good fight in culture wars. One is for the Forbidden Book Club whose meeting I will attend right before the debate, and one is about a Chrisianist corporation fucking w the public school district. The latter had a RW douche quote an op ed from WSJ w references to Plato and Aristotle. Engaged feminist attack dog protocol and responded. While cooking. And looking like this - friendly neighborhood rabid feminist uniform, no?

Just got a survey call from some polling firm. We got as far as confirming my first name, the county in Missouri where I live, that I am registered to vote, and that out of R, D, or something else, I would identify as a Democrat and all of a sudden we were done. Their representative sample needed no Missouri Democrat, apparently. Because it was soooooo representative, I am sure 😜🤣

Caught a bit of the Macron speech and his line "you are forever at home here" / "vous êtes à jamais chez vous ici" in his beautiful French diction made me cry. Every reference to someone being claimed as being at home in a place they was not born in, makes me cry. The US commentator immediately preceding saying we don't teach history in our schools, yeah that didn't move me much. I will teach this exact history next spring FFS.

@LiberalLibrarian you wrote such a beautiful piece. In our discussion of #Politics I will re-post your words because I find them poignant. I wish I could experience them as true for me.

I am an Eastern European woman with a US Ph.D. in political science. I am blessed to have tribe I cherish and who cherish me, but the great American dream has done nothing but shit on me. I have very much been weighed down by my gender and the anti-intellectualism of the country.

Goodnight CoSo!
Today is a good day, marked by the numbers 50 (% funded) and 34 (counts) and I am glad I got to spend it with you. Here is a meme I am lifting from the book of faces.

Sorry, I failed to use #Politics in a post that I was typing while screaming. But the orange sack of shit has been found UNANIMOUSLY guilty on all fucking charges and that produced a certain type of response in me. Now to find out if MAGA undermined everything sufficiently for the conviction to not matter...

Saw John Fetterman on Morning Joe and I am so moved by his journey and his advocacy. And his hoodie.

Watching recaps of TFG on trial, I have come to a very troubling position that I am turning into #CoSoConfessions : he needs to die. Mind you, when he had Covid, I realized I cannot wish death upon even turds. Now, however, it is my political scientist analytical brain that is telling me he needs to perish. Nobody w enough evil charisma could fill the gap he'd leave and we could be okay.

I promise this is the only thing I will say about the bitch who murdered #Cricket : items included in a memoir are selected. What all did she leave out FFS?!

At work in middle school but also messaging w a HS classmate who went to med school w someone in Hungary who is Palestinian and is in Gaza. Friends are trying to get him + fam out. So I am also messaging another classmate who is a diplomate in Nigeria to see who we may collectively know who could help. Global village over here.

It was inevitable that Rachel Maddow would have to talk about McDaniel at NBC. The way she did it in the A block was an exquisite tour de force. So of course now I am even more sad.
