A friend of mine regularly uses judgesmails as his username, so of course that's his avatar.

Well yeah, I’ll admit the bar is pretty low. I guess that’s kind of my point.

On the bright side, hockey's back and I’ve started drinking again. :twitch:

Is Biden so boring that we've gone nearly 2 years between posts?

I think it's more that we've all been seduced by the corporate imperial liberal hypnosis machine (code name: Soros).

It's more fun and playing to the crowd to make fun of trump (who is a disgusting lunatic) than to engage in either condemnation or appreciation of anything Biden does, which is guaranteed to get you a few arrows from one side or another, imho (or, maybe more likely, to just be met with the silence of the Dictator graveyard). When I was less conflict averse I might have stirred it up, but opening up to argue about joe fucking Biden is like one of the least rewarding ways I can think of spending time here.

It's also a case, I think, that given how the right has completely abandoned even the pretence of democratic ideals, Biden is that thin, deeply flawed mosquito netting that separates a continuation of a republic from an obvious autocratic regime. So, however unconsciously, there isn't a desire to add on to attacks on Biden, even if we'd be coming from a perspective of more democracy rather than less. A deeply shitty situation, but it can be so much worse.

That sums it up nicely.
