  1. The problem is, most people think grade school delinquents when they hear a fire alarm was pulled. Most people don’t work in secure buildings with access controls that sometimes have glitches, where people prop open doors they shouldn’t, where pen testers find those glitches and they’re fixed randomly. Sometimes they fix one glitch and then you’re locked in an unoccupied space where the only way out is to maybe sound an alarm and have an awkward conversation. This is such a non issue. Bowman clearly just made an honest mistake. And even if he didn’t, it’s a terrible idea to penalize people in these situations, it makes them less likely to say something when they see something.

  3. Romney is a lot of things, but an idiot isn’t one of them. Also, Utah is surprisingly progressive when it comes to climate and the environment. Utah is naturally inhospitable, they don’t wanna make it any worse, I guess

  5. President has always had a constitutional power to pardon. He does that with a stroke of a pen and it’s done. Rescheduling is an administrative process under the Controlled Substances Act. He initiates it with the stroke of a pen and then there’s some bureaucracy BS in between.

  11. Probably the part where people have been saying it’s late stage for 100 years. Like Henry Kissinger: why hasn’t it died yet? Is it immortal? Is it actually a demon?

  12. Find a social worker (the hospital you go to can probably point you in the right direction). Also, figure out how to massage the numbers so your income is $75 lower on paper so you qualify again. The monthly income limits are easily found for Medicaid expansion states (ignore the numbers published for original Medicaid). Something like $1580/mo for a single adult (much higher for families) You should also call NH DHHS and figure out if it was just a clerical error. They rejected me first time and it was for a complete BS reason. They feign incompetence so people like you just give up and don’t get what you’re entitled to.

  14. But they are doing their job… CNN is fake news. Their job is to run propaganda for the Clintons, Biden, and all the other DINOs.

  15. You always had to do a redetermination before Covid. You can qualify pretty much immediately when you become unemployed in all but the 10 worst states in America. A lot of people likely stayed on Medicaid for months after finding a job because it’s the best insurance you can get. It covers everything. A lot of scaremongering on this topic at the moment, targeted at upper middle class libs who still think it’s 2008 and you’ll be financially destroyed if you go to the hospital while between jobs. It’s sad. They’re in an imaginary prison, shackled by horrors that ended a decade ago for the most part. What happens next is, people who no longer qualify for Medicaid will either get employer coverage or if they’re lucky, ACA coverage. Employer based coverage needs to be abolished, it’s absolutely atrocious. I’ve been screwed by the deductible resetting when changing jobs too many times to count at this point.

  23. DeSantis will be running from jail. Accelerationist Idiocracy theory says we get President Hershel Walker as a smoother brained Comanche. He’ll oversee a new dust bowl and water the crops with Mountain Dew to try to fix it.

  25. Modern fascism? As a young man, Benito Mussolini was a turn of the century “Bernie bro,” before his rise to power as a fascist. Drawing in these types of people, has always been a key part of fascism.

  26. Fascist movements are always chock full of this NPC subtype. Mussolini was one of them in his youth, even, hanging out with the socialists, getting arrested for participating in a general strike in 1903. Of course these fascists don’t have any principles, thats a tautology. They’re fascists. Of course they’re trying to co-opt the energy of Bernie’s movement: fascism is syncretic.

  27. It’s not supposed to be coherent. In fact, the more incoherent the syncretism is, the more useful it is to a fascist. Umberto Eco’s Ur-fascism outlines this brilliantly.

  28. Meatball Ron’s been getting spanked by the mouse. I want them to handle corporations the way the CCP handles corrupt billionaires

  29. Nah there’s plenty of Boomers like Kellywise who still believe all the 1980s after school special gateway drug BS. Her talking points got mixed up so it sounds even stupider but they definitely think cannabis causes more people to become heroin addicts. See what Gov Sununu of NH says about legalizing cannabis for the more refined version of this garbage propaganda.

  32. There’s no crackers, no Jews, and no transgenders in sub Saharan Africa under sharia law. Go back to be with your people again, Dave Chappelle. Curious how these Muslim bigots always come to the West, instead of the theocracies they seem to admire so much…

  33. I actually think Christie could win. Everyone likes an underdog, and he’s the only one besides Trump who isn’t an NPC. Everyone thought Trump didn’t have a chance in 2016 too… Christie and Trump’s public personas are very similar, actually. They have that same trash talking NYC loudmouth attitude, that will absolutely dominate Meatball, Pence, and all these other loathsome NPCs. Christie is the only one who’ll actually attack back at Trump on the debate stages. Trump’s an old man who almost died of covid. Christie can beat him at his bully game. Easily.

  37. I like to imagine the look on his smug face when someday, all of a sudden, him and all his fellow frequent fliers on the Lolita express get sent to that NYC jail where Epstein didn’t kill himself. It’s not tenable, he says! Why suddenly prosecute r*** minors? Gee Larry, things change and people make different choices, ya know?

  39. It’s a chilly day in hell today. Brandon was a true believer in the drug war, for a half-century in Washington. But Dark Brandon is clearly on a redemption arc, trying to right so many wrongs he’s responsible for at the last minute. Guilty conscience is a good look on a president. I thought they were all sociopaths.

  42. This is pretty run of the mill superchristian nonsense. You look at the trans corn just once and Satan will possess you. Just like dungeons and dragons. They can’t look at the forbidden fruit themselves. They only consume it via proxy in their fundie echo chamber internet forums. That being said, I do think a lot of the trans moral panic is “straight” Christian men not being able to reconcile that they’re more like a Kinsey 1.5, hardly anyone is a Kinsey 0, corn isn’t real, and the fantasy arouses them. But this particular clip of this particular fascist doesn’t seem like he’s confessing anything.

  43. The thing about sexual repression is that it always creates bizarre fetishes. They fetishize trans existence. The repulsion only makes it more attractive. They are obsessed, in a clinical sense. Trans people are an intrusive thought, running loops in their heads every hour of every day. It’s also why tr*p is perhaps the worst slur of them all. Like, cmon, trans women don’t even want to give you psychos the time of day.

  45. I wonder if there could be a coalition built here for a constitutional amendment that guarantees the right to abortion and to own an ar-15. Doesn’t seem the base is as on board with the theocracy as I thought, which is a pleasant surprise

  46. What’s sexual about a woman in a leathersuit? How’s that any different than wearing yoga pants or a leotard? But you know it’s sexual, right? There’s an implication — she likes to dominate men. Fur suits are the same. It’s not inherently sexual but they’re all into some kinky queer thing. Playing dumb about it all isn’t helping anyone. Why is it so bad for kids to be exposed to some weird subculture where there’s some mild innuendo that they’re too young to understand anyway? What’s next, save the kids from ever seeing upside down pineapples, eggplants, or hooters signs?

  47. I don’t see the point of cancelling a 94 year old. Your heroes are always flawed. Whatever sex crimes Chomsky might’ve committed, don’t undo his accomplishments. He is to linguistics as Marx was to sociology, the father of an entire field of study. His work in politics was only notable because the Red Scare made everyone else too afraid to speak. It was unimpressive without the totalitarian academic censorship. His achievements as an academic gave him the privilege to write left wing political books for the masses. Seems he used that privilege for other ends too, but that’s really a tale as old as time, isn’t it?

  49. They wanna do another coup against a democratically elected left-wing government in Latin America, using drugs as a cover. Classic. The problem is, this one would be the end of the US as a country. Mexico and the cartels would make the Russian offensive against Ukraine look like military genius. They would hand us our asses on tacos. We just got smacked around for 20 years by illiterate goat farmers, and you wanna invade Mexico now? Ludicrous
