77 million Americans voted for national suicide in 2024. We're seeing it unfold right now: The economy vandalized, the military weakened, politicians bribed, tech run wild, immigrants terrorized, and government goon squads committing murder. Vote against all Republicans. It could be our last chance.

I'd argue that this isn't really cognitive offloading, this is more like hiring a lawyer if you get arrested because the legal system is complicated. I've been struggling with insurance issues to the point that I just lie and say I don't have insurance and pay out of pocket, bc it is just easier

remember: it saved no net money, social services US citizens are getting cut, and left the US in a weaker place geopolitically. none of the debates about fiscal responsibility, obligation to US citizens first, or 'hard choices' actually apply. they're all bullshit. killed people for nothing at all.

Absolutely, but it also helps that Democrats have a super-supermajority in the NY City Council, a Democratic Governor, Democratic supermajorities in the NY House and Senate, and nearly every NY Court of Appeals Justice is a Democratic appointee. At the Federal Level, it took 57+ Dem Senators & 1/2

I've spent a lot of time inside classrooms of very poor schools, including working with well-resourced parents like @nhannahjones.bsky.social who opted for those schools out of social obligation. Her experience - and agony - is common and wrenching. She's just one of (very few) willing to be honest.

Yes, because any Democrat is better than a GOPer, and the higher number of Dems in office, the less power each individual Dem has to mess things up. You have fewer Sinemas, Manchins, and Fettermans when you have 60 Senators. Also, Dems have not had real power since 1968, and just look at how 1/2

A better argument for those that hate "handouts" is that right now we spend Z dollars providing M meals, while letting lunch be free would cost 1.5×Z dollars and would provide 2.5×M meals, and ask which is the better deal. If they deny that's true, there's real world data to back up both statements

Flock, like ShotSpotter, argue that more data leads to more safety.
