President Biden exits this campaign a hero and exemplary civil servant. He has done incalculable good work for this country. With this latest act, he puts us in the best position possible to do the most important work of our time: defeating Donald Trump and his party of monsters.

Breaking: former governor of the state that saw some of the most horrific gun violence in recent memory wants to do absolutely nothing about gun violence.

Good friend is late 20s, royalty, independently wealthy, lives in giant mansion with anthropomorphic furniture, and is a feral beast. But he’s consisted ghosted, ignored or told “I only date human men.” Modern women are broken.

Some parents who are strict about their kids' diets get lucky and end up with kids who are willing to eat whatever is put in front of them. Parents chalk it up to the parenting instead of their incredible good fortune, every time.

It's really not that difficult to give readers the correct impression. They mislead deliberately.

It’s not enough to “mention” it. What matters is the volume of coverage, which is where people take cues to determine what matters. Compare Her Emails to any of Trump’s crimes.

This sentence is short. This sentence would also be short; however, I will use a very formal grammatical maneuver to make it longer. That was a close one!

In Colorado it's illegal to break into someone's home to hand them a bottle of water while they are filling out their mail-in ballot, JUST LIKE GEORGIA. Checkmate, atheists.

No, that's wrong, because not all deficit spending is equal. Tax cuts for the rich don't improve the economy, but investments in the poor and middle class do. As long as our debt to GDP ratio remains manageable, it doesn't matter.
@AntiNateSilver
Maybe it’s worth only running burly, handsome 6’8” guys with charismatic wives if it ends up getting everyone healthcare and reproductive freedom.

"passive voice" is a grammatical term but also a colloquial one. It's used all the time to describe language that avoids assigning responsibility to the actor that caused the effect. Just like lots of people say "begs the question" when they mean "raises the question."

When you get a job with a 401k they make it super easy to invest. It’s basically free money: not taxed and the employer matches. DO IT. They’ll give you a list of funds, pick one that says Index. By the time you need to switch to lower risk stuff you’ll be old enough to get it.
@xjvixo
@Ravioli_fuBz
@somaddysmith
Yes, 401ks are invested in the stock market. You should expect to see several booms and busts over your working life. It’s NORMAL. As you near retirement age, start moving money into super low risk bonds if you want to be safe.
@dstfelix
Never heard that term before. Assumed it referred to wives who do all the parenting and are also expected to be good romantic partners. Then I looked it up and boy did I cringe.

They’re not hypotheticals. You just don’t want to deal with reality so you don’t have to feel guilty about implementing anti-choice laws.

1. We're not mystified. They're racist.
2. They weren't being patronized, lied to or taken for granted.
This is utter garbage, and I wish I could say I was surprised to see it in the NYT.
@Dienne_7
1. It has to pass the Republican controlled House
2. There aren’t 50 votes to eliminate the filibuster.
As always, the solution is to stop being an obnoxious leftist edgelord and vote for more Democrats.

And the decision makers did it because they understood that the cost of doing nothing would be so much more expensive. I'm just saying: it's not because SME's used to get listened to in the good old days.

I think it’s disingenuous. Ross is drawing a causal conclusion that isn’t so far fetched. The problem is he thinks women’s oppression is worth men’s unearned success. Like saying emancipation was bad because plantation owner income fell.
@jonathanchait
“Activist” is a weird word to use for parents who are trying to get their kids healthcare. I thought you were pretending to be a journalist.
@whstancil
Popular bills become "controversial" if they take a long time to pass, receive bad faith and dishonest attacks, and then take a long time to produce benefits in people's lives. Move fast, keep it simple. Then it won't matter how much whining the GOP does.

That's the thing though: I don't actually believe people like IPA's. I think most are pretending so they can keep the bro-culture grift alive. I pretend to like your craft beer, you pretend to like mine. It's a stable system. The only people who suffer are, well, everyone.

At best he'd be raising a 17 year old when he's 76. How can you not be sure whether you'd want to do that!?
Unless he means he's not sure about dating a woman who already has kids?
@mrbenwexler
They also used to say that he “made everything about himself.” Crickets now that’s Trump is actually doing that. They just hated being reminded that someone they hated was president (I know the feeling).

Tommy Guns were used in prohibition-era gang violence and the streets practically ran red. When they were banned, casualties dropped significantly. Bans work.

This is the right answer. The biggest existential threat we face is climate change, and because of this ballot design we spent 8 years ceding ground to it instead of fighting it.

This is a VERY common way for truck owners to carry a mountain bike. They even make pads for your tailgate.
That said, most trucks have a LOT more room in the bed when a bike is carried like this.

This is the purest form of conservatism: feeding the poor is only acceptable if the food can be conjured magically from thin air. If a rich person has to pay for it, it's suddenly immoral.

I'll never forget that story I saw recently where someone got her right wing neighbor to quasi-admit he didn't believe Obama was born in Kenya. But he would keep saying it because he knew it was a useful lie if enough people pretended to believe it.

At the individual level, the only alternative is renting. Which means being at the whims of a landlord. With homeownership you have control, and your monthly payment goes to building your own wealth instead of someone else’s.

1. What is the point of the $250k FDIC cap if it doesn’t mean anything?
2. Why weren’t depositors managing their risk?
3. Passing the costs on to “banks, not taxpayers” means passing the costs on to bank customers, which is basically everyone anyway.

The media has decided that Republicans are the protagonists of the American political story and they are on the heroes journey. Nevermind that actual people's actual lives are at stake. The GOP killed 12,000 people by not expanding Medicaid.

The thing I can't get over is how your insurance company gets an 88% discount off a $476,000 bill. Maybe they are platinum members at your hospital?
