“You should have to pass a quiz on current issues and/or take an IQ test to vote”. Bad. Racist. Easily weaponized. Not democratic.

“You should have to read (1) newspaper from the last seven days before sharing your hot take on someone else’s tumblr post”. Intriguing. Has potential. Might bring about world peace.

#this post is about the same old ao3 arguments #but also applies to posts like the one claiming trump's impeachment trial was hhushed up #or people who keep chiming in on my post about gas prices being like #'well they HAVE to charge more because evil joe biden took away their oil' like please log off and look at the outside world #and also shell's profit margins lmao #anyway #op

From the October 6, 2023 article:

Now Trump’s attorneys, having successfully argued that he couldn’t be convicted during his impeachment because the criminal courts were the only appropriate venue, are arguing that he can’t be held accountable in criminal court because he wasn’t convicted during his impeachment.

Tim Miller at The Bulwark looks at Donald Trump's third (and biggest) indictment.

There will probably be a fourth indictment related to Trump's famous January 2021 phone call to Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger. Stay tuned.

Tim also reminds us how Republicans had a chance to rid themselves of the burden of Trump at the second impeachment trial but blew it and are now stuck with him because of their cowardice in 2021.

Find the Word Tag Game

tagged by: @sleepyowlwrites!! my words: fruit, flavor, friend, first, flirtatious, foreign tagging: @sleepyowlwrites, @drabbleitout, @drippingmoon, @druidx, @ashen-crest, @zmwrites, anyone who wants to, and watching shows and movies set in DC is so weird cuz it’s like wow I know those places lmao NCIS has always been wild especially when they mention VA cities I’ve been to/lived in your words: talk, scream, yell, cry, whisper, murmur

fruit (Aurora)—

Warren chuckled and slapped his back twice upon meeting him at the bottom of the stairs. "Nah, man, it's a big day for you! Aren't you excited?"

"Excited, sure," Guetry said, catching with one hand a fruit thrown to him by someone in the crowd. "But I also threw up twice before I even left my room, so. Everything's fine!"

Thrive regarded him, in the middle of plating the food from his pan. "It is fine."

flavor (Rebirth)—

"Good morning, newlyweds, question mark," Guetry said obnoxiously as Warren entered the bridge later, sucking the last of the coffee flavor out of his teeth. "Oldlyweds? Whatever. We officially have the best news you will ever receive."

Warren turned back to Thrive, who had followed him, making a last-minute adjustment to his form suit. "Hear that? The war's over and I can go back to sleep."

"My decryptions are finished," Scotty said. "Among these files are extensively rendered star maps detailing the locations of four hundred and forty-five vital loyalist camps and bases within the Milky Way, as well as the elusive Blue Palace where Hyret currently resides."

"Holy shit," Warren said. "That's literally the best news we will ever receive."

friend (Eternal)—

"Your parents sound wonderful," Thrive said.

Warren shrugged. "Just like anyone else, they weren't perfect, but they were the best parents they could be. I like to think I was close with both of them, for the short amount of time I had with them."

Thrive folded his arms. "Part of me wishes I'd taken the time to find out who my parents were. I'd always suspected an older Watcher I knew when I was young to be one of them because from the point I underwent entu'borah onward they didn't seem as friendly with me as they once were."

"Wow," Warren said. "It kills me to think that someone could've just...given you up or abandoned you."

"It happened more often than anyone liked to admit."

"How? How does that happen in a society where having a child literally can't be a surprise?"

Thrive ran a palm over his jaw. "There was a time when having at least one child was mandatory. Our population was, according to the Leadership, dangerously low. It never was. We'd been over a hundred billion in numbers since before I was born."

first (Meridian)—

Warren greeted Thrive at the VIP gate of the Node a few days later the only way he felt was appropriate—he ignored the security detail and threw his arms around him, held him tight and for a long, long time.

"Things have sucked," Warren murmured into his shoulder as Thrive slid a hand to the back of his neck. "I missed you so much."

"We'll get through it together," Thrive said. "Just like we got through the first year of Leviathan, and everything else we've gotten through together."

flirtatious(ing) (Rebirth)—

Guetry waved in Warren's direction. "Yeah, got him lookin' proper Node, too. Opinions?"

Thrive observed the outfit and cosmetic differences with a critical eye, and Warren felt himself flushing under the scrutiny.

"To me," Thrive said after too long of a pause, "he seems much more comfortable in his skin, and that's deeply satisfying. Thank you, Guetry."

Warren exhaled and grinned. "Just say you think I'm hot and move on."

"The day those words leave my mouth is the day you should worry about my well-being."

"Do they need to leave your mouth though? You're kinda giving off the vibe already."

Thrive gave him a look that was hard in the eyes but his lips sort of curled up a bit at the corners.

Warren could've easily been pushed to amp up the flirting, but he decided that was too much in a public setting. "How's the acquisition going?" he asked instead.

foreign (Rebirth)—

"Alright," Thrive said, handing Warren the tablet. "Scotty, highlight the pieces of code we need to manipulate."

He placed his hands on Warren's head, fingers finding specific, symmetrical points. Warren looked down at the tablet and had to blink unexpected blurriness out of his eyes before he realized he could suddenly understand the foreign symbols scrolling from right to left. Something about it still seemed off, as if he looked at it within a dream, and it didn't help when some of the white text became yellow.

"I…" Warren took a second to really look at the code and orient himself. "What's happening?"

"I'm translating," Thrive said. "Stimulating the language center of your brain. You're temporarily fluent."

"Did you know you could do this?"

"...That's not important."

#tag game #Find the Word #I'm actually listening to the Monica Lewinsky/Linda Tripp tapes in the background as I work on this #like it's a sick (negative) podcast but it's so fascinating and horribly droll at the same time #and to think it was all happening within like twenty to thirty minutes away from where I lived at the time #Tripp was a trip (derogatory) #I'm hyperfixating a little #fun fact someone's listening to the OJ trial in the background of the first tap #*tape and it's kinda funny cuz Sarah Paulson was in both Impeachment and the OJ season of ACS #also it's fascinating to hear how other people talk to each other on the phone #I should tape my husband and I talking for fun lol #anyway that's enough from me shit lmao

Sunday Afternoon Is Made For 'Toons!!!

A lazy Sunday afternoon … cloudy and cold again.  Two days ago it reached 81° and today’s high is 42° … a bit of a change there!  So, time to hang around the house, maybe have a bit of a snooze as daughter Chris is doing at this very moment, and … a few chuckles might be nice, too.  So, brought to you by all the best cartoonists in the land like Clay Jones, Mike Luckovich, Jeff Danziger and many…

Tuberville and the Wisconsin Gerrymander: GOP's Gaslighting of Democracy

How much does the GOP not give a good goddamn about our democracy? They're willing to support Tuberville's blockade of military appointments by blaming it all on Chuck Schumer. They're willing to circumvent the will of the voters and keep a Supreme on ice

SUMMARY: Today we’ll look at two situations that highlight the GOP’s commitment to undermining democracy. The first situation involves Senator Tuberville blocking military appointments, the Republican Senators’ attempt to blame Democrats for the consequences. The second situation focuses on Wisconsin Republicans’ gerrymandering tactics to maintain control over the legislature and the state…
