A speed camera’s not going to let you out of a ticket because you have a thin blue line sticker or a bumper sticker for a conservative talk radio host. It’s also not going to shoot you as part of a routine traffic stop.

“Trump has rejected disaster aid for Democratic-run states at the highest rate in the 47-year history of the Federal Emergency Management Agency.” Right now people in blue states are basically paying federal taxes as if they’re colonized territories of red states. www.politico.com/news/2026/03...

Is part of it that the skills required to get really rich in the past included being smooth, charming and pro-social and now it’s more about being good with machines?

I am begging Democratic leadership: don't make fear the strategy for 2028. The GOP attacks everyone. It doesn't matter if it's a woman, a man, a Christian, a moderate, or a progressive. Pick the best candidate. Trust voters. Meet the moment instead of running from it. #ProudBlue

I don't recall any previous transformative technologies that had to be sold to the public so hard. No one in 1999 was going, "Guys. Cell phone? It's coming, whether we like it or not. I think it's important, FOR WOMEN ESPECIALLY, to learn about cell phone. So that we're not left behind!!"

While Trump's assertion that "a whole civilization will die tonight" represents a discrete threat of genocide against Iran, the fact that it comes from a U.S. president, while Congress does nothing, actually represents a broader civilizational collapse — whether he follows through or not.

A reminder that US troops are being sent by a treasonous draft dodger who is okay with Putin exposing their exact locations to die in a war that he started as a distraction away from his crimes. The United States has no Commander-in-Chief.

Wait after so much hand-wringing about how the Dems have lost young men it’s 100% insane to suggest that we write off someone so influential with them—and these young men are winnable. “US deserved 9/11” might offend old people but this is how a lot of young men talk and it’s not that serious.

I think often of a New York Times photo of a little Iraqi girl tending to her parakeets in a bombed house, probably from 20 years ago now. I will think of this man and his sweet dog often now too. People just want to love what they love, care for their little beings, and instead we do this to them

utterly heartbreaking, unjust, and pointless these are exceptional young people by any metric
Trump’s expanded travel ban in December coincided with college early-decision notifications.

Wiseman Makore, a 19-year-old Zimbabwean, learned of the U.S. travel ban days before he was offered a full scholarship at Harvard University, starting this fall. He fears he will never see the Cambridge, Mass., campus.

Aspiring electrical engineer Tanatswa Mbara, a 20-year-old from Zimbabwe, received a scholarship to start this fall at Northwestern University in Evanston, Ill. He woke his mother when his acceptance notice arrived at 1 a.m.

If we made the green energy transition this war would be unthinkable and these authoritarians wouldn’t be in power — not in the US, not in Iran, not in Saudi Arabia, not in Russia. Hydrocarbons are killing our freedom and just plain killing us.

And it was impossible to get a slot anywhere near SF so it meant getting a hotel for Friday night in like a Sac suburb, or getting up at the crack to drive to San Jose. The whole thing is such a racket. They should limit people to taking it twice. Kids are taking the SAT/ACT like 4 times.

Mayor Lurie seems like a nice person who clearly loves San Francisco and seems to work his tail off but if SF is so “back” a year into his term it’s because London Breed created the conditions and it’s annoying that he never acknowledges that.

The fact that conservative movements have dollars slushing around with random ancient billionaires has made them think that's the only way social movements are funded. Genuinely do not realise that this is not normal or how solidarity works. Pathetic.
