ZooeyModeratorThis one has created a storm because of the author, not because of the content of the tweet. Kind of amazing the way people are polarized over Greenwald.
ZooeyModeratorRepublican position is clerks shouldn’t count votes until all polls close, and then you get a four hour window to count certain ballots, and whatever doesn’t get counted by midnight is never counted. Unless they are behind and then it’s opposite, because Hunter Biden’s Laptop.

ZooeyModeratorJust a reminder at trade deadline: Last time a Super Bowl winner had an All-Pro WR was Marvin Harrison in 2006. Before that, Jerry Rice in 1994. Big-time WRs don’t translate to championships.
Remember when the Rams coulda drafted Marvin Harrison, and they took Eddie Kennison instead? I remember that.
The front office sure has improved under Snead.
ZooeyModeratorIt annoys me that the rams personnel experts cant come up with a better Kicker.
It startles me. This kid does not look like an NFL kicker. Is he Snead’s son-in-law or somethin?w

Heck…Sam Ficken for that matter.I don’t understand how this happened.
ZooeyModeratorI think climate change is going to push it.
People who want to live a decent life in 30 years are turning hard against the system, and that pressure is only likely to increase.
That’s why the billionaires are building bunkers in New Zealand, and militarizing the police.

ZooeyModeratorThat guy was probably aiming for protesters and got all hyper on adrenaline, and launched himself through the “wrong” people.
But that sure isn’t a protester move we’ve ever seen. Nearly 100 cases of rightwingers doing it this year. Zero cases of protesters doing it.
He takes a hard left hand turn, couldn’t have even seen his target until too late. And the guy in the bed of the truck looks like White ISIS. That isn’t a protester move. That’s “friendly fire.”
ZooeyModeratorWow, Zooey i was just gonna post that ten seconds ago. Awesome thread. I cant believe that guy is a NYTimes writer.
It’s the 25-year Rule.
If it happened over 25 years ago, it’s okay to talk about because it’s ancient history and has no reflection on the current power structure. Bad Apples.
You won’t see that guy running a thread on Yemen, or Libya.
ZooeyModeratorAgree on Goff. He loses accuracy when he feels pressure, and I was hoping that this year is the year he improved in that area, but he hasn’t. With good protection, he is very accurate with the once-a-game wild pitch, but under pressure, he regresses.
On that pass to Brown…looked to me like Brown stopped short in the wide open space and Goff led him into a narrower window. Miscommunication.
The Lewis sighting was impressive. Would love to see more of that.
The defense did a great job overall. They did some bending, but didn’t break. That secondary is really good.
Chicago has to be self-doubting now. The Bears defense outscored the Bears offense. And Foles apparently questioned his OC’s play-calling in talking to Griese before the game. I’m guessing that team has hit its high water mark for the season, and is on its way down to the pack.
ZooeyModeratorThis is a good thread
Neoliberalism's starting gun went off on 1973, when a US- and UK-backed fascist military deposed Salvador Allende, the incredibly popular, democratically elected president of Chile.

ZooeyModeratorWell, Bernie Sanders did not get the memo. He apparently believes he will be president.

ZooeyModeratorThe idea that progressive voters want things to be “perfect” and are naïve/ too demanding is propaganda intended to disguise the extent to which politicians purposefully avoid doing the bare minimum at their donors’ behest.

ZooeyModeratorThat’s quite a brush with fame there, Mack. Not quite on the level of being retweeted by a Python, but cool.
Being retweeted by John Cleese practically makes you a Python yourself. You should probably wait by your phone for the inevitable call asking you to be in their next film.
Didn’t the American guy die? That’s realistic opening for me, I think.
ZooeyModeratorWhat at trip. I might have been there when the father of one of the greatest rock guitarists ever was working.

ZooeyModerator76-6 Rams. A slightly above average Goff is going to murder Salehs garbage defense.
———————
Rams are going to drop 10 and let Aaron Donald take on the whole pass protection unit by himself…and will still get 6 sacks.
———————The 49er fans are, as usual, overly optimistic again. It’s unbelievable how they think they are going to get off this easily.
ZooeyModeratorAmy Siskind. I followed her for a while, on FB, I think.
I have a better idea. How about we track down Koch, Murdoch, Adelson, and Mercer, and hang them by their balls.
That is such an Amy Siskind thing to recommend. Fuckin’ liberals, man. Always into the symbolism without accomplishing any goddamn thing.
ZooeyModeratorThis analysis got somewhat lost in the shuffle, but Charles Koch is going big for Barrett — not bc he hopes she'll destroy Roe or the ACA, but because he hopes she'll destroy the planet 1/https://t.co/dT4mTg1u6d

ZooeyModeratorRAMS ON FILM
@RamsOnFilm
Rams Vs 49ers week! The Rams swept the 49ers in 1999. That year, Mike Jones took an interception to the distance! A little bob and weave action from the defense I see! 👀@DMarcoFarr1 (with the tipped ball)I was at that game with SanFram. Wonder what ever became of that guy.
ZooeyModeratorWell…my thoughts were complicated by this:
No…I don’t want to endorse corporate Dems…but I sure have a strong urge to repudiate fascism…AND the wider the popular margin of victory is for Biden, the better. Especially because it’s going to be litigated unless the Republicans lose by such a margin that there is no pathway to victory, even with stacked courts. So there’s that.
I’m just in “enough of Trump” when it comes to the vote. I have no argument with leftists who can’t vote for the centrist Dem. But I am with Zooey when it comes to swelling the numbers of those who repudiate the orange man, and so I not only want to see the republicans lose, I would like to see a high turn-out.
================
Yeah, makes perfect sense.
Some of the twitter-Greens really want the Green Party to make it to five percent. I forget why. But something-or-other happens if they get five percent.
w
vAnd I have been throwing that into the scale as well. But…what happens when they hit 5%?
They hit 5%, that’s what.
ZooeyModeratorThis is Do-or-Die for the 9ers.
Backs against the wall.
That kind of thing.
If they lose, they are Done.
Looks like they are Done anyway. But if they lose this game, it is Over Over.
The radio in NoCal has been eulogizing the 9ers for a month.
The time has come to strike the finishing blow. That much is certain.
