i know the number 1 thing everyone is worried about right now is the SSPP philosophy deadline tomorrow, so i'm happy to report that we're moving the deadline to *November 22nd*. if you get our emails it's coming soon (this isn't a joke, i actually get to do this)

thought i'd check out bluesky and was reminded that is also the name of the place that cremated my dad lol. bit of symbolism for ya

my sense is it is not time to admit that actually

you know that thing where people arguing about basketball on tv and they're yelling about KD's leadership or something and you very quickly go 'oh these guys don't watch the games'? lotta election takes have that vibe rn

[after decades of self-aggrandizement and accruing money and power to myself] i did it all for you, you're welcome

[auditioning to be the joe rogan of the left] jamie, can you look this up? i heard that politics is actually organized around classes with adversarial material interests. something about capital extracting value from labor, are you seeing that? also, chimpanzees could fuck you up

the voters are all stupid and ignorant and don't understand—much less have deep convictions about—almost any actual policy issue, and also our presidential platform has to change to reflect their preferences

A lot of you would sound smarter if you just said ‘I don’t know why Donald trump won the election’

I know we’re all casting about for solutions, but has anyone considered running a right wing democratic campaign that alienated the left and courted moderate republicans?

Been a minute but deadlifted three plates again today, now seated for conclave, the lifestyle brand is coming together folks

not to be that guy, but i do wish the de dicto–de re distinction was marked more carefully in political discourse

I think it’s kinda right that a lot of people engage with politics as a kind of sports fandom, but the thing about sports fans is that they regularly call for the coach to be fired

There’s like a reverse intentional fallacy going on with Vance quoting Anton chigurh, as though it must be stupid and not endorsed by McCarthy because a bad guy said it. Bad guys say insightful things sometimes

I actually think Joe Biden personally should have given up at least a year earlier

It’s like Brandon was so excited about some engagement from ‘Donald j. trump PhD’ he completely forgot the posture he was trying to affect

LOL HOW DID THE CHIEFS DO IT AGAIN
