Looks like a positive trend resulting from better legislation and accountability. Nothing to throw a block party over, but improvements are worthy of note.

This is all very compelling examination and all, but so what? What are they gonna do, storm another Capitol? Vote blue no matter who? Melt down in their SUV on TikTok?

Magas will rage, the storm will die down, and maybe they'll find some other "tactical genius" to fawn over. They might even be scattered for a while, maybe long enough to beat at the ballot box (if we ever get another genuine election). And that's best case. They're never going to stop looking to deport brown people, oppress queer people, and align with rich white sociopaths.

Trump's gotta go, for safety reasons, but they are the problem. Deeply hateful, suspicious, stupid, gullible. This will not teach them anything. Reality may step in and turn the lights on, but most of the cockroaches will scatter and hide until it's safe again.

Spoiler alert, the pervert is coming from inside the White House

For anyone still wondering where the bottom is, this should convince you there isn't one. A narcissist's ego is a black hole.

Yes. They have complained for decades that trophies shouldn't go to losers, because it breeds weakness and complacency. But they only apply that to others. It's classic projection. It goes hand in hand with the devaluation of education and expertise.

It's not thinking at all, really. It's feeling. They don't know the difference. They feel like Trump should, or will, do something. So that makes it true for them.

The "participation trophies are bad" crowd have embraced the idea that all opinions are equally valid rather than judged on merit. So they get to live in a world where they can shape reality on vibes. They have no use for critical thought.

When they say "I think..." what we should hear is "I wish."

It was a fun movie, my partner and I enjoyed ourselves. It was nice to see a fresh take on Supes that leaned into the heart of him.

I'm always interested in what Gunn is doing, he's been consistently strong in writing very human characters that stick with you.

A demented, feeble old narcissist, furiously and impotently typing incoherent gibberish with his tiny hands, posting to a sad, pathetic group of followers on a failed platform under his own control.

Another scandal a whiff of which would topple any Democrat, or even a Republican in decades past, which today will not even move the needle.

If they start shooting children in the head, that ought to confirm it

From the description:

one wouldn’t expect an imaginary little creature from the 12th century to still hold relevance in modern society. And yet the word of the year was ‘goblin mode.’ So, what is it about these freaky dudes that have kept them a fixture of popular culture?
