  1. Today I learned that Hugo Chavez is still alive.
  2. At that point, the effort will be to prevent a quorum.
  3. It's not going to work this time, but they're normalizing it. We're in some seriously deep shit going forward.
  4. It's certainly an odd form of nationalism, I'll give you that.
  5. This. It's about channeling the grievance of a loser: victimhood.
  6. I'll likely read that when it's done. Karsa was great. Tehol is my favorite, though.
  7. His handler would not approve.
  8. I enjoyed it, but it ran out of gas near the end. I really loved Tehol and Karsa characters.
  9. Stormlight Book 4 drops tomorrow. I will certainly be reading this. I hate starting unfinished series, but I make an exception for Sanderson.
  10. You must have missed it:
  11. Roger Stone created the Stop the Steal PAC in 2016. This has been in the works for a long while.
  12. It's your fault that I voted for a fascist! I really had no choice.
  13. We've valued nonviolence and liberalism (really the majority of both parties) over the past 50 years. We're living in a pressure cooker, and the fascists keep turning up the heat. This last norm, the mores of nonviolence (which has already eroded on the far right) is about to be pierced. Everything the fascists fear will come to fruition when this norm/ideal erodes on the left. That's why it's hard to understand the absolute stubbornness by which they drive head-on into calamity. This will not end well for anyone.
  14. You smell that? That's fear. Beautiful, sweet fear.
  15. People that are fearful make threats. They may be angry, but the quote should read "The fear out there". You've been consolidating power for a generation, it would be soooo unfortunate to lose those structural advantages over a Lost Cause.
  16. It would probably be actual suicide to the members of the court who invalidate the will of the people.
  17. I see we're nearing the Reichstag fire portion of the story.
  18. Just a few more posts, TTom, and Trump will be president.
  19. Pretty sure he's just waiting to write it on the outside of one of Hunter Biden's laptops.
