  1. Abortion on ballot now in Missouri, after near-total ban enacted by GOP-led state legislature....
  2. That is an effective strategy. Trade small gains in ground for attrition, and inability for gaining force to effectively secure positions.
  3. There is a “wanna be on the winning team” effect. Not sure how big it will be in the cult, but people love being on the winning team…..
  4. It was an amazing piece of voodoo. Focus on an undereducated, economically repressed region with a history of racism. Then, instill in them a fear that what little they have is going to be taken by new (likely non-white) arrivals, who will also render their God and their job a vanishing vestige of their past. Harp on this so much, that they’ll never realize every piece of the platform and body of legislative work is against their self-interest.
  5. “Tight in the crotch please. I really, REALLY want my rolled up crotch sock to really look like a weiner.”
  6. Pee-Wee's bike's thief wore less eyeliner.
  7. Wish I could FAFO, love, laugh, and drool rep this.....
  8. "I have amazing message discipline. The best message discipline. They don't want you to know it. They don't, but do you know Hannibal Lector? Lock her up!"
  9. I've never been prouder of Tulsa. Had to curtain off the upper tier of the arena, and it STILL looked empty. (Bonus: Herman Cain was there....) So at least someone noticed he pulled out?
  10. We're still quite unclear on the mission objective. Clearly, surprise was achieved, whatever the motive. Is this trying to Trump-proof end-of-conflict negotiations by grabbing as much territory as possible? (We'll give you Kursk back, you give us back Donbas and Crimea?) Is this fixing and eliminating more Russian war-making capability? One thing Ukraine has been doing consistently is making sure the Russian population knows they're at war.
  11. A significant question, and giant uncertainty, is how well AFU can maintain logistics support as this intrusion dives farther into Kursk.
  12. Wouldn’t that be something? Fucking Prigozhin could’ve done it with one ragtag group of mercenaries….
  13. All those Minnesota Packers fans. They're going to be surprised.
  14. Depending on the goal, this thrust, if it continues, >will pull Russian forces into Kursk, and away from other parts of the fight. >cut vital RR connections for supplies to Russian troops on the Kharkiv front >grab Russian land for negotiations to end war >destroy Russian equipment/personnel/infrastructure >force redeployment of limited Russian resources to full border
  15. This AFU foray into the Kursk Oblast in Russia is huge: 2 brigades is probably (depending on AFU org) 10,000-15,000 troops! OSINT claims the objective is the Kursk Nuclear power plant...
  16. https://www.technologyreview.com/2024/08/07/1095762/covid-conspiracies-hiv-aids-denial-public-health/
  17. “The more cushion, the better the pushin’….”
  18. And plotted against percentage of population per census tract with a four year or advanced college degree.
