Five candidates seeking to halt Donald Trump’s march toward the 2024 Republican presidential nomination gathered in Miami on Wednesday for the party’s third debate while the former president held a separate campaign rally across town.
Quote of quotes:
“I’m sick of Republicans losing,” Florida Governor Ron DeSantis said.
It’s the rare example where amoral capitalistic greed can actually lead to a more morally defensible position than the actively horrible ideology against which it is compared. Disney doesn’t give a fuck about any human being’s particular right to be any version of themselves one way or the other, but they do care about how much money they can make off of the largest swathe of people, and they’ve done the math and figured they make more money being more accepting than the Republican party.
It is, in fact, a case in which “We believe nothing Lebowski!” is actually preferable to “At least it’s an ethos!”

That’s a great analogy via movie quotes if I’ve ever seen one! Need to rewatch that movie… :)
You’re about to be mugged, when suddenly, the mugger is swept up by a tornado! “What a relief!”, you think, as you float 100 feet up into the air.
