I feel like the current state of US politics calls for a reverse of Hanlon’s razor, in that the default position should be attributing malice to the actions of republicans rather than stupidity. Some of them are clearly dumb as a box of rocks, like boebert with her one brain cell rattling around up there. But people like Ted Cruz, who was an editor of Harvard Law Review, also continue to say the absolute dumbest shit you’ve ever heard. He’s saying it because he doesn’t give a shit about the masses who vote for him and he knows it’ll continue to fool them.

Education doesn’t equal intelligence but it suggests a certain baseline of competency, and barfing out GQP talking points that make no sense probably isn’t the best thinking ivy league graduates are capable of. They’re boot lickers to be sure-- everyone kneeled and kissed trump’s ring after making their real feelings known during the 2016 primaries. It’s why sweaty teddy was phone banking for the orange after he called his wife ugly. But spinelessness isn’t stupidity.

JD was an editor of the Yale Law Journal, so you can bet that his dumbassery is calculated lies he’s using to advance his causes. We should start from the position of attributing the actions of these cowards to malice, not stupidity.

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.

My mom did tattoo makeup the last several years of her life. They use much finer needles than regular tattoos, which she had a few of as well. She said it wasn’t that bad and worth no longer having makeup in her routine.

Not too bad from the accounts I’ve heard; my wife trained for this before we stopped doing body art. A lot of women get it when their hands shake too badly to apply makeup well.

Fuck, Vance himself looks like he’s had this done.
