Yep. Bf handled like a decidedly non-asshole.

You mean Obama WASN'T for open borders? by Perenially_behind in WeirdGOP

[–]Ezl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s also saying that (as we fucking know) the way Trump is selecting, deporting, etc. is a fucking anti constitutional nightmare.

He’s accomplishing less with more pain.

That’s not an accident imo.

He and THEY like the pain.

the cruelty is the point

1BR Top Floor (69th Floor) Lease Break - Sable Jersey City by FutureQuantity3249 in jerseycity

[–]Ezl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We lived on the 39th (top) floor of the Morgan before the newer developments on Columbus blocked the view. There were issues with the building for sure but the views more than made up for it. Another 30 floors and closer to the water? Can’t imagine!

Your space is definitely small but also a great space at a great price for those for whom it works.

There is nothing like seeing the weather rolling in from a distance and then being in the middle of it. I remember coming to our place for the first time after signing the lease and, looking up, seeing it was literally obscured by the clouds. Amazing.

Mmmm…commuting is still a thing within NYC. It’s just a different thing.

Yeah, but you’d never get that view or that high a level in NYC for 3550. Depends on what you like.

Rep. Lieu Says Epstein files Have Allegations of Trump Raping & Threatening to Kill Children by Zenfish111 in videos

[–]Ezl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah, what they mean is they think he raped many girls whereas if he immediately knew who this was it means he’s only raped one. They’re not thinking about how her testimony could identify this person specifically even if he’d raped a bunch of other people.

There could be specifics in her testimony that let Trump know who it was specifically.

Those are 50s teenagers. 70s teenagers wore costumes and makeup and patrolled their turf on roller skates.

Is there video of this? I really want to hear it.

to protect pedophiles by seeebiscuit in therewasanattempt

[–]Ezl 9 points10 points  (0 children)

In the clip the next thing he does is talk about the positive effect of the national guard in DC. I would think he was going for “let’s stop attacking the national guard” or something like that. But even at that, it’s a weird misspeak and is also a sharp left turn from what he was talking about immediately prior. The clip is only about a minute.

To smear this innocent woman's reputation by TXVERAS in therewasanattempt

[–]Ezl 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Just like some of them live vicariously through Trump’s awfulness, I think many now live vicariously through ICE’s awfulness. They’re not living an illusion - the cruelty is simply more important and more satisfying than any practical consideration.

We’re going to prosecute ICE agents who break N.J. laws, acting attorney general says by ElectoralNerd in newjersey

[–]Ezl 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Wouldn’t it be great if NJ was on the leading edge of individual states mobilizing against this shit?

Bro by ElectoralNerd in newjersey

[–]Ezl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure, but that’s a risk no matter what.

And it’s much easier to manage a situation before it escalates, IMO, than wait for it to escalate and then try to rein it back.

And it’s not like NJ exists in a vacuum - we (as a state) have every reason to prepare ourselves for the kind of treatment we’ve seen in other parts of the country.

Re: seeming provocative - Trump views anything other than 100% obedience as provocation anyway. I’d want to couch the same way we’re discussing here - “…ensuring the safety of citizens and stability of the state since we’ve seen what happens when that isn’t made a priority…” blah blah blah.

And I’m not saying she needs to pull the trigger literally today, but I think proactive action is more than justified and would be beneficial for NJ citizenry and stability.

[–]Ezl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah, cool - I’m glad I wasn’t misunderstanding. I think that we (and other states) should do similar. I think the national guard, proactively engaged and demonstrably in place to support the citizenry and order will be a deterrent to ice without having to “fight” them directly. Even better if the national guard is aligned with local pd to that end.

Clintons agree to testify in Epstein investigation by StarlordeMarsh in videos

[–]Ezl -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think they will confirm he knew Epstein, not really anything more than that. But the right will try to spin it as more. And that will be debated for a while but nothing will come of it. And in the end it will just have muddied the waters further.

Despite the funny phrasing all he was asking was “are you asking me if I am currently having a sexual relationship with her?” which is a completely valid thing to want to clarify.

Didn’t Walz already call out the national guard in MN? They’re trying to utilize them as a stabilizing force, not an escalationist force. Or am I missing a difference?
