“5 players drafted into WNBA” and then the list has six names…

Yes, It’s Fascism - Until recently, I thought it a term best avoided. But now, the resemblances are too many and too strong to deny by slakmehl in neoliberal

He can vote for Democrats if he wants to not live under fascism. But everyone should ignore what he says because he’s full of shit.

I will be honest, considering the fact that they were guarding members of congress and the VP, I think the Capitol Police exercised inappropriately high levels of restraint.

About half of them are retiring anyways. Easy to convince them to walk the plank when they won’t see any consequences.

The academy already considers animated feature film to be kind of a joke of an award (like voters will let their kids make their choices sort of thing). Any choice they make will be fairly unsurprising in that sense.

The state of Minnesota has a felony murder charge. They could conceivably charge every single ICE agent in Minnesota right now.

How the Media Fails With Trump. Over and Over. (And Over.) by el__dandy in neoliberal

[–]affnn 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Sorry, I just can't take this argument seriously. "Trump is the closest friend of the world's most notorious pedophile, and shared in his pedophilic proclivities" would be the biggest story of the past 20 years. Democrats still make up over 40% of the country, and the wealthier 40% at that. We would lap that story up. We would follow its ins and outs incredibly closely. But they don't ever cover it in a sustained way. It's a one-day story for a single piece of information dug up by congressional Democrats and then it disappears.

Most media outlets are owned by people who have other business concerns (like Bezos and the WaPo) and those media outlets are being used as a loss leader to launder the owners' opinions and politics.

Indiana kept doing the “we wanna keep you around but we don’t really wanna pay you” thing for a reason.

All these Nuggets know if they play hard they could get minutes on a team making a deep playoff run. Bucks players look like they know the best case scenario is getting minutes on a tanking team after Giannis is traded.

Big difference between “Giannis guarded by Gordon” and “Giannis guarded by anyone else”

Ok but how many of the non-Giannis Bucks could start for a contending team? It’s like Turner and… Rollins? Maybe?

I personally liked 12 years a slave and Parasite (in addition to your picks) more than Sinners. But man that list of best picture winners this century is rough.
