The candidate that makes it out of the primary is not necessarily the best candidate to win the general election. Democrats get scared at primary time and vote for who they think is the “safe” candidate resulting in a bored electorate.

If you spend $15 million on attacking “socialism”, you might as well just give that $15 million to the Republican election committees. Don’t make their arguments for them, counter their arguments. Come up with a counter narrative.

I’ve had a pet theory since the run-up to the 2016 election that Trump fans thought all of the left were big Bill Maher fans, for some reason, and they didn’t like us because they thought we made fun of them like Maher and his hacky jokes did. To this day, I have to tell MAGAs we don’t like Maher.

The Trump administration rejected all four women farmers chosen by their peers to represent them in an industry group called the United Soybean Board earlier this year, a rare intervention by the U.S. Department of Agriculture that three of the women suspected was because of their gender.

The ears of every state or federal prosecutor who's ever worked an Embezzlement case just pricked up. If you ever wondered how Donald Trump could transfer the cost of his Fürherbunker to taxpayers while personally pocketing millions, this would be Step 1.

Is it possible—and I’m no meteorologist—but is it in the realm of possibility that Alex Jones has some disorder that renders him unable to understand irony or sarcasm, like he can only understand the most concrete definitions of words, making his world one in which irony is unfathomable?

Bluesky is definitely different and definitely better, but… I am seeing more and more outrage and condescension on Bluesky lately and it reminds me of when Twitter started turning bad. Because it wasn’t always bad. It was once a place to get and share information similar to Bluesky.

if you believe in any form of free enterprise at all, the idea that the Pentagon can not only cut off your contract but designate you a supply chain risk and prevent other companies from buying from you just because you won't build killbots for the government should be terrifying

I tie myself up in knots going back and forth about continuing or calling it complete. I’ll get it to “good” then the tension increases as I don’t want to ruin it (and “waste time”). But I think I need to learn how to interact with that tension and explore it in a way that feeds into the piece.
