Diaper Don and the Couchfucker sounds like a bluegrass duo you'd see at a bar in Ithaca. I love it.

Well that's one thing I can sympathize with him about.

Everyone correctly considers them gullible idiots when it comes to politics.

All those people will have other areas of individual expertise as well.

"Walz does sets of bench at 350 and squats at 675, I've seen it, he's balls out man!".

You think they give a shit about consistency?

Nope, I don't feel bad at all. Religion sucks.

They did under the Raj, though, (still just barely) in living memory.

Yeah it sounds insanely unpleasant, but beauty is pain.

And either he has it permanent or he wears heavy eyeliner every day, all day, and never smears it.

I'm not saying people like Ramaswamy understand how America works...

Okokok

Let's assume that Khelif is taking androgen enhancers (she doesn't look like it given her shoulders but for the sake of argument).

Are Republicans unaware that women can gear up for bodybuilding without being trans? Are they unaware that butch lesbians exist?

Just like cishet men can choose to get eyeliner permanently tattooed on without being trans? Are they unaware that metrosexuals exist?

Walz is rich? Wut?

Black don't crack baby

Yeah I know I'm well into auntie territory because I had the same reaction.

I'm shocked, honestly. Shapiro is the canonical post-Clinton Democrat, all the consent manufacturers were clearly pulling for him.

As one of the leftmost members of the D voting coalition its a strange feeling to not be getting continuously shat upon.

What you need to understand is that India has a rigid caste system based on inheritance just like the US does; there was one already there in a lot of places and the britishers codified the hell out of it.

Many upper class Indian people don't see a conflict with white supremacy because they come from, and benefit from, the exact same system.

Somebody like Vivek Ramaswamy, for example. He looks like a dude with dark skin to a generic American. But that combination of names is a giveaway that he's a Tamil Brahmin; once you see his nose and forehead you have a pretty good guess of what his ancestral temple allegiance is; this all happens automatically for people from India (I am not but was married into a Tam-Bram family for 20 years and I picked it up myself).

I'm not saying that this is determinative of political stances; I know plenty of democratic voting upper crust Indians. But somebody like Usha Vance or Vivek Ramaswamy looks in the mirror and sees a Brahmin, which is the equivalent of me looking in the mirror and seeing a white person. They do not perceive themselves as a "minority".

Sometimes it's great to be wrong, this is one of those times. Great news!

"You didn't even talk to the IRB?"

Christensen isn't a bad actor (he was great working with Hank Azaria in Shattered Glass). Nobody could have saved that direction and dialogue.

There are some impressively out of touch people making the calls in the democratic party.

It's going to be fucking Josh Shapiro. sigh
