It’s not Lebanon it’s Phoenicia
It’s not Ukraine it’s Scythia Minor
It’s not Romania it’s Dacia
It’s not Bulgaria it’s Thrace
It’s not Georgia it’s Colchis
It’s not Turkey it’s Asia Minor
Actually it’s still Egypt

Hellenize your vocabulary

“I’m not used to everybody hanging on to my words and then trying to hold me accountable for what I say,” is such a choice law enforcement quote.

I know that Gen Z has picked up on the deadeyed cynicism of their lead paint enthusiast Gen X parents but at the time, in the 2000s, this was much, much cooler and much more fun than shit like Puddle of Mud.

You can call it cheugy or wholesome chungus or whatever but this is fun, this is well executed, the 60s revival outfits aren't totally into late 00s hipster pedantic historicism, the jangly Strokes-adjacent sound is fun. It's good!

BRENNAN: Should there be an ethics probe to look into Max Miller?

REP. MIKE TURNER: This is a matter of litigation. This is best handled in a courtroom, not a TV studio. This type of speculation is better for TMZ than CBS

BRENNAN: Is it at least something Republican leaders should look into it?

TURNER: The courts need to handle this, not a TV studio

BRENNAN: So it doesn't matter to you?

TURNER: The court needs to handle this

This is the same conspiracist framework that plenty of activists, scholars, politicians, and journalists have (rightly) decried as a cynical excuse to crack down on internal dissent in other countries, but now being used in the US.

It remains a mystery how Slotkin, a former CIA analyst. divined the names of her GOP tracker’s dogs, which weren’t on social media or publicly known; a Slotkin spokesperson said he wouldn’t touch it.

Did you know that Roscoe Arbuckle was named after Roscoe Conkling because his dad hated him

[Andy Beshear @AndyBeshearKY]

Sorry to miss Fancy Farm today, but let me get in on the fun. Rand Paul apparently said I’d been “neutered” by my legislature. Rich coming from a guy who’s never had a pair of balls and if he did they’d be held by Trump. 1/4

Even above the transformative policy aims of Zohran’s mayoralty, I truly think this continued project of democratizing governance could be the most consequential thing he does. Imagine a world where organizing and mass politics is built into every layer of the governing process.

[The Force Majeure Groyper 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 @ProgDirectorate]

if the democrats were structured like a normal western political party they would never willingly annihilate their own ballot line in half a dozen states to prop up independent candidates with whom they have secured no formal agreement or concessions

[Jake Walker @Jake_W]

It's just one of those amazing coincidences of life on Earth, like why so many Civil War battles were fought in national parks!

What did you think "moderate on cultural issues" meant? Vibes? Essays?

[corb @awshuqs]

my friend said he had to “study” for the “bar exam” yeah normal people call that pregaming

[Joe @JoePostingg]

The current coalitions are so funny, like why is the extremely Christian small c conservative early childhood educator a woke socialist?
