Trump is President-elect for two days:
- Stock market hits record high
- Migrant caravan at our border dissolves
- Hamas calls for end to war
- Bitcoin hits record high
- Putin ready to end Ukraine war
- Qatar kicks out Hamas leaders
- EU will buy U.S. gas not Russian gas
- Putin will sell oil in U.S. dollars
- Zelenskyy phones Trump & Elon
- NYC Mayor ends vouchers for illegals
- Mexico to stop migrants at U.S. border
- China wants to work peacefully with us
- Big U.S. company to move out of China
I repeat: Trump has been President-elect for two days.
Can any of you confirm or deny any of these claims?

Bodily autonomy is a fake argument because in practice nothing else follows from it aside from abortion.
And sex work, and medical transition for minors.

Last year my girlfriend bought me the book A Hero of Our Time by Lermontov, as I discussed here.

I liked "Hot to Go". It inspired a similar reaction as when I heard "Gimme Chocolate" by Babymetal: you can't help but smile at the sheer audacious silliness of the thing.
Listen to the radio. The only reason I've heard Chappell Roan's music is because I recently started a new job in which the office has a radio tuned to a local station playing chart music all day.
Alternatively, join a gym and don't bring your own Airpods. You will hear a lot of chart and dance music.
Or have female friends (this is how I first heard Olivia Rodrigo).

All of this is premised on the assumption that Biden is capable of exercising any agency of his own. One would like to imagine that the person or people who were calling the shots in the last two (three? four?) years have some kind of investment in Biden's legacy and might hence be motivated to do something nice for which Biden can get the credit, but I don't know if we have any good reason to believe that's the case. Probably the people calling the shots are some anonymous DNC staffers who have more important things to worry about, like making sure everyone knows that that Orange Man sure is Bad, huh?

One of the comments on the video:
Video: Graphic Design is my Passion
Lyrics: Sapphic Desire is my Passion
Olivia Rodrigo
I thought that song "Vampire" was alright, if a bit melodramatic. Can't imagine getting that bent out of shape about some dude you probably didn't even have sex with.
I’ve liked Charli XCX since 2013 and she’s only gotten better since
There were a few songs off the How I'm Feeling Now album I enjoyed, but I found the marketing campaign surrounding brat so annoying and inescapable (not least of which the "Kamala is brat" "endorsement") that I'm refusing to listen to her as an act of protest.
Earlier this week, I said that everything I've learnt about Chappell Roan was against my will. But after repeated exposure to her single "Good Luck, Babe!", I must confess that it's grown on me and the hype might be warranted: this didn't top the singles chart here for no reason.

nobody should have sex with men

There's a joke in here somewhere but I'm not the one to make it.
In a population in which 90%+ of adults or teenagers are carrying a device in their pockets at all times which enables them to film HD footage at 24 frames per second (at least) on a whim and then immediately share that footage with the entire world - if Haitians in Springfield are doing something untoward with cats or dogs, I would expect at least one video (even a blurry, out-of-focus video taken from a distance) showing that taking place.

I also lost money on a Harris popular vote. I'm not that surprised Trump won the presidency, but I am floored he won the popular vote. Never saw it coming.

Would I be right in saying there were no riots after Trayvon Martin's death? I honestly don't know either way.

When Trump takes office in January, I want a mea culpa from you, too.

Are you capable in communicating in an idiom other than obnoxious Twitter-speak? I made a rather tame joke, you told me you didn't appreciate it, I didn't immediately capitulate - therefore this is a "hill" I want to "die on"? Pathetic.
Also Scott Adams is certainly an interesting choice of person to use when lecturing someone about how sexist they are and how they need to (unironically) "do better":
A man who became famous primarily by creating content appealing to a demographic who are too young to vote?
