God damn it, you've got to be kind.
The right-wing outrage cycle is running on fumes, but at least it's entertaining. I wonder why Republican voters never seem to get tired of it. It seems exhausting!

EDIT: If you want to feel old Gingrich hasn't been Speaker since 1999. Looking backward it feels like that was a completely different world even though all of the constituent parts of the GOP machine were already in place and grinding away.

EDIT: It's hard for me to believe that this is real. Everything about it seems so immensely stupid.

lol state government here has been refusing to legalize it in any form or fashion citing that they're just waiting for Federal to do it, wonder what excuse they'll switch to now

Won't they just use the "Fed overreach! State's rights!" nonsense that plays so well?

I'm not looking forward to whatever happens after the next round of elections. Some of these maniacs are going to win, and the rest will take to the media platforms to spend the rest of their days screaming that their election was rigged, provoking even more chaos.

I've heard of "older than dirt" but not this one.

Chocolate chip cookies originated in the United States around 1938, when Ruth Graves Wakefield chopped up a Nestlé semi-sweet chocolate bar and added the chopped chocolate to a cookie recipe.

Sliced bread was introduced to the market in 1928.


EDIT:

This seems like an absurd amount of money to drop so close to the election. They might as well have made it into a pyramid and burned it like the Joker.

The madness seems to be accelerating. Anyone left in the GOP who thinks that this can be controlled is going to get crushed.

I wanted to share this Twitter thread on the voting experience in Georgia. It's not long.

I've been voting by mail for a long time now and it's striking how cumbersome in-person voting can be, whether intentionally or just due to bad systems.

quote:

Michael Capps, a former Kansas lawmaker who once sponsored a bill to put the words “In God We Trust” in every federal building, has been found guilty of committing COVID relief fraud and money laundering.

Like other members of his party, he used his time in office to push Christianity on everyone. That’s why, in addition to his anti-trans and anti-abortion bills, Capps sponsored a bill to put “In God We Trust” in public buildings, including public schools. Capps even defended the bill by citing former president John Adams: “Statesmen may plan and speculate for Liberty, but it is Religion and Morality alone, which can establish the Principles upon which Freedom can securely stand.”

That bill eventually died in committee, but Capps’ point was clear: It was necessary to promote religion and morality because, in his mind, those two things were synonymous.

In 2020, when he ran for re-election, one of his campaign ads even opened with the line, “We’ve brought God back into our schools!”
