  • The alternative is the Dems adopting a legitimate progressive platform. Liberals will stand on their heads before they support a progressive candidate. Case-in-point Zohran Mamdani.

    There’s a clear path for gaining the support of the the greater American public. They kneecapped Bernie in 2016 and they’ll do it again and again until we make it clear we won’t budge. If Newsome runs for president we are virtually guaranteed a Vance presidency in 2028. Mark my words.

  • So if every state adopts this style of hyper-partisan gerrymandering, why bother having state reps at all?

    Remember when Newsome invited alt-right dickheads on his podcast and essentially asked, “how can dems be more like you?” Turns out he listened. Performative twitter trolling and undermining our representative democracy.

    Fuck each and every neoliberal, and that goes double for Gruesome Newsome.

  • If Biden had done any-fucking-thing we wouldn’t be here. That’s what happens when you reap what the neoliberals sow.

  • Wow, nobody has a response to this. Hilarious.

  • Please enlighten me: what has Gruesome Newsome accomplished with regards to actual policy and legislation by adopting the same trolling methods of the far right?

    He’s just pushing the Overton window further into insanity territory. You realize if everyone adopts gerrymandering it essentially just erodes another aspect of our representative democracy?

    Fuck neoliberals. I didn’t vote for Kamala and I’m sure as hell not voting for Gavin “let’s have a chat with Nazis on my podcast” Newsome.

  • The Thing (1982)

    It’s my favorite movie of all time and I watch it every October.

  • This hard drive is so big, when I tried to weigh it the scale just said “one at a time please”.

  • I liked Bruce Springsteen, but then even he became political!

  • The whole point of the post is trying to avoid a Che T-shirt situation. Are you dense intentionally or unintentionally?

  • That’s a good idea, I think that’s the way I’ll go.

  • They almost encounter each other. He’s hiding in the hotel room after Llewelyn is killed near the end of the movie. Anton is literally shivering with fear on the other side of the door. Somehow he disappears before the sheriff enters the room.

  • No Country is a film (novel) about how personal gain has supplanted spiritual morality as the driving force behind our greater human culture.

    Josh Brolin embarks on this whole crusade just to secure his bag of money. Woody Harrelson is a self-described “day trader” while he moonlights as a hitman. Javier Bardem kills them both, but he’s terrified of Tommy Lee Jones because he’s just a sheriff who is simply committed to upholding the law as he sees it. As misguided as their respective motivations are (Anton is a psychopath with very black-and-white morals) they are the only two characters who are not driven by material gain. That’s what makes them both so formidable, in the context of the film.

    I’ve rewatched this movie so many times, and this to me is the overarching theme of the story.

  • Your comment is informative but now all I can hear in my head is Green Day’s “American Idiot”.

  • Came to the comments for this. Only one to put out a great solo record after. Twice the musician John was and twice the songwriter Paul was.

  • Honestly, yes I think Steve Smith would be a worse governor than Bill Lee. Now, Marsha Blackburn on the other hand… also worse but also probably smarter than both. And I would feel bad punching her in the face but Kid, Steve, and Bill not so much.

  • Born in 1989. Whenever an older person says, “never get old!” I always say, “it’s better than the alternative!”

  • Nashville musician here. Steve Smith is also widely considered to be the biggest piece of shit in the state. He fancies himself a confederate Tony Soprano of sorts. Really he’s just burnt-out coke head like his buddy Kid Rock.

  • Very cinematic! It’s not really my thing, but damn that dude can sing his ass off!

  • Any of the Studio Ghibli anime. Spirited Away and Princess Mononoke are two of my favorites. If you’re not into anime, just trust me and give them a try; the writing and drama is on par with any Grammy-winning blockbuster from the past 50 years.
