"Worst person you know just made a great point."
Nebraska is a wild case study.
Nebraska Dem Chair Jane Kleeb receives constant national recognition despite a consistent string of failures.
Key issues:
- Dems’ main pitch to rural Nebraska voters is, “VOTE BLUE OR YER A BIGOT!”
- Dem activists regularly disparage rural or moderate political figures with whom they disagree. Guess what? Those figures have lots of family and friends. Every time a Dem makes an ugly post about a rural Republican, they’ve alienated three generations and an entire town.
- Low-level Dem electeds (state senators on down) are expected to be in lockstep with the Dem platform or else they’re shunned from the party. This kneecaps talented potential statewide candidates and creates a reliance on unproven, never-elected candidates for higher-level offices. Dan Osborn showed, once again, why that’s a bad idea.
There’s many, many more facets to this, but the main takeaway is Jane Kleeb is laughably bad at her job and has been for more than a decade.

.@Avis You need to have your customers do an email verification when setting up bookings and accounts. One of yours used my email address and I can see all of their information. Not ideal.

This AND the nasty comments back missing the point. It's almost like the white characters aren't the good guys in Dune and they're coopting another culture to further their own gains.
But the comments are "duh it's in the future"
It looks like the White erasure that White people were complaining about (Hollywood casting non-Whites in characters) doesn't apply when White people play the roles of Arabs and Muslims.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Timothée Chalamet plays Paul Atreides and Anya Taylor-Joy plays Alia Atreides, of House Atreides with Greek descent per the books; they are not Arabs or Muslims. Arab and Islamic influences mainly define the separate Fremen of Arrakis.

Anyway, Nebraska continues to land a big right hook on teams and immediately (always on the following drive) let it slip out of their hands. Colandrea's long TD run should've ended the game.

It is extremely similar...like almost dead-on.
Olivia Dean is accused of copying the melody of Bill Withers’ Grammy-winning hit song “Just the Two of Us” for the closing track of her latest album. nbcnews.com/pop-culture/pop-…

Collapsing under the weight of mild, mild expectations of being able to beat a 2-2 team when you're the 15 point favorite.
I mean, this is the coaching staff right to the head man. It's not new or unusual. It is frustrating as hell.
What on earth happened to this team. And if your take is their competition was bad before you’re implying something dumb about Maryland. Actually I’m going to mute replies. I don’t want to hear from any of you.

I don't know. The main non-generic praise ("brave, audacious, bold!!!")for Digger is that it's SUPPOSED to be bad so it's actually good even though it's bad.
