Big thanks to the people working to get abortion pills into our fucking psycho states with abortion bans. birth control failed and a volunteer just saved me from spending money I dont have on a plane ticket out of state.

We got to see an old school establishment Democrat with tens of millions in funding get rinsed by a 33 year old socialist. No matter what happens, I'm still happy.

It's 2005, I'm watching a commercial for the new Harry Potter while we destroy the Middle East.

if you look at the data from the elections earlier this month, it seems like the real danger is that many labor voters have simply stopped voting

They're not voting for other parties. They've simply stopped showing up to polls at all.

This is even more pathetic and gruesome than that fake supply pier that was only ever used to send in special forces to shoot up a refugee camp.

It's deeply funny that Trump managed to sabotage these conservative parties that would have done whatever he wanted , just because Canadian and Australian politicians still have the political instincts to say "fuck you" when a US president tells them to hand over their lunch money and then kiss his ass.

Somehow, European politicians still haven't figured out that one neat trick.

If the US lasts another twenty or thirty years, that's probably how our media will start portraying the Republic of Afghanistan and the occupation there.

The US has never had a shortage of people who want to memory hole any embarrassing facts and rewrite history the way they think it should have happened.

There's going to be total shock in the US in a few years when the first woman on the moon is Chinese.

The fact that this happened because settlers keep burning Palestinian fields is amazing. I don't know how you can believe in a god and see that as anything less than divine judgement.

China really is living in the future. Building new space stations, high speed rail and ever cheaper, cleaner energy.

Meanwhile , a single US state is approaching its third decade of trying to build a single line of high speed rail, and our federal politics consist of watching our most ancient boomers build a Gestapo while they are actively dying of old age.

This man is in his 50s, with hundreds of billions of dollars and dozens of kids, and this is what he's doing.
