Why are people acting like another Trump administration couldn't possibly have any lasting consequences, when we're still dealing with the aftermath of the Reagan administration now.

“Nobody’s going to want to sit on high-speed rail for fifteen hours to get from New York City to LA.”
Me. I will sit on high-speed rail for fifteen hours. I’ll sit on it for days. I’ll write and read and nap and eat and then do it all over again. I’ll stare out the windows and see America from ground level and not have to drive. I’ll see the Rockies and the deserts and cornfields and the Mississippi River and your house and yours and yours too. I’ll make up stories in my head about the small towns I see as we go along. I’ll see the states I’ve yet to see because driving or flying there is a fucking slog and expensive to boot. I’ll enjoy the ride as much as the destination. And then I’ll do it all over again to come the fuck home.

At least in ye olden times the estates where kings held court had tons of rooms bc tons of people lived there. Now you have some billionaire living with a family of five + half a dozen staff in a palatial home that would’ve supported 100+ people back in the day.

“The government should get rid of the carceral system and just let me run around with lucille the baseball bat from the walking dead” very stupid take. You should not be given a legal license to kill with a baseball bat. You are not a perfect moral authority, and giving one group of people the ability to kill others without repercussions is how we got here in the first place. However I fear that if I go on Reddit for much longer I’m gonna start hunting down the piece of shit rape apologists in the comments and put them in a torture dungeon I will lovingly craft in the bowels of the mammoth cave system. And then I will illegally and unjustly torture them until they think that ramsey gameofthrones snow is a kind and benevolent guy.

false advertising suits should be more common and the laws should be more strict so that companies are legally barred from saying literally anything about their product that is not a quantifiable fact. even a modifier like "tasty" has to be accompanied by a footnote explaining that this is from a survey where 68 of 100 people said they enjoyed it

the problem with being mean to discern real allies from fake ones is that there's no finish line for it. There's no point where you have been mean enough and can now be sure that they're genuine. All you can do is escalate, be more and more cruel, demand bigger and bigger sacrifices until you hit the limit of what a person can take and then take it as confirmation that you were right to be mean and you should keep doing it. it's just not very productive

and gender is one of those things where it's so deeply culturally ingrained that these categories must have overwhelming significance that most people are deeply reluctant to confront just how arbitrary most of our signifiers of them are. like there's no reason women should have short hair and men should have long hair, or that different sexes should wear different clothing or whatever, but there are still subcultures within our society today that would treat the idea of long hair on a man or a woman wearing pants as a transgressive sexual perversion. a lot of the really deranged behavior from the cis types, like confronting women with short hair when they try to use the women's bathroom, or the transvestigation conspiracy stuff on twitter, is, i really believe, a desperate emotional defense against the creeping awareness that without these arbitrary markers of difference, it would be really hard to tell men and women apart! if men and women generally wore similar hairstyles and clothing styles and had similar patterns of speech and posture and mannerisms, you might guess wrong twenty, thirty, even forty percent of the time! very awkward for you if your cisness and/or straightness is a load-bearing part of your identity. but your neuroses are kind of exhausting for the rest of us.
