I always enjoy how the little, little man cannot accept or tolerate anybody except him getting any recognition or appreciation. It just drives him freaking crazy, doesn't it?

Impeach them all. Or try to. They are all impeachable, even the supreme court justices. Because per the Constitution, Congress is in charge of the US. The "show" is how power is gained and wielded--putting on a show is how Trump became president. Force Republicans to vote against the Constitution.

Will you really? My prediction is that the Dem congress will consider impeachment (holding criminals accountable and upholding the Constitution) to be a "distraction" from "kitchen table issues" and y'all will do nothing. My opinion is based on experience and I sincerely hope to be wrong.

YOU need to prepare for the worst and stock up on food and basic items. THEY need to do nothing and can continue to develop this technology and release it willy-nilly as they please. YOU bear the negative externalities, THEY enjoy the benefits. Hope this clarifies the situation.

I'm eager to get an agent because I can't figure out when to pee and poop, and I get a bit stinky according to lesser people, like females. I need an agent with advanced SI sensors connected to my bladder and bowel areas to send me a push notification whenever I need to relieve myself. Help me Zuck!

I'm with you on that. Let's see if we can get to the point where every body of water, mountain, country, state, province, city, and town has the word "trump" in front of it on maps in the US. Every large company and sports team as well, would be a nice touch.

Which is why you and your colleagues are doing everything you can to impeach everyone, right? Because you know the importance of putting these people on trial and forcing republicans to vote in favor of criminals, and against Law and Order. Right?

Good. Per the constitution, Congress in in charge of the country. One of my most fervent wishes is that people stop idolizing the presidency.

Disaster and catastrophe are the only way that most people will change, I suspect. Until then, the Republicans will worship their "Commander in Chief" and the Democratic leadership will continue to spinelessly slither and hide in every crevice.

It's a nice fantasy. Sadly, Trump is their Golden Boy. Their Dream Come to Life. Everything they adore and love and believe in. Their Jesus, their Hero, their Commander in Chief. I've been wanting to be proven wrong about that since 2015.

America's governors have a choice: administer decline under federal coercion, or build parallel capacity — health data walls, election defenses, and non-cooperation statutes — that make coercion expensive.

I take it you're reading "Leisure, the Basis of Culture"? The title alone has had a great influence on me for decades now.

Yeah, people's comments on here seem very negative, but her essay is about asking for help, collaboration, and expressing gratitude to all the people who have helped you along the way. I'm not clear what is bad about that. She's not presenting and defending research; it's more of a personal essay.

One of the Dem weaknesses is that we refuse to attack the MAGA base. Meanwhile they attack Dems as inherently evil people who might be demonic and whatever their corrupt politician is doing “Dems are worse”

all politics is performative the performance communicates important things to voters Not impeaching sends a clear message that both parties are totally cool with massive corruption in the executive branch It's a really horrible thing to do

The surveillance that Google, Meta, and their ilk do is far more invasive and extensive, and they've been doing it for 10+ years. They sell that granular data about you to anyone who pays for it. That bothers me far more than registering with the police while living in China.

At least the Chinese government is in the position of needing to manage 1.4 billion people.

What I found perplexing about this article is that there's no acknowledgement that in the US we basically have this also. Only it's done by Google, Meta, et al. They track us all the time, in every way, and constantly sell this data to anyone.

Indeed. Own guns, fine. But you've got to do that as part of a "well regulated militia" per the constitution. And since the constitution does not say what "well regulated" consists of, we can decide that via our legislatures. I suggest a patriotic, weekly public service work crew requirement.

"Musk spends....his free time fomenting violence and spreading the same hateful ideology that motivated some of the deadliest shootings and attacks ever to happen on American soil. It is that fact, and not the cars he builds or the rockets he launches, that ought to define his place in public life."

If today your excuse is "They don't have a House majority!" next year your excuse will be "They don't have 67 seats in the Senate!" There will always be excuses. They have to start fighting for freedom and democracy. Now. 1/2

Yup, seems like a solid, realistic, thoughtful plan for achieving a legitimate strategic objective. Should be a piece of cake.

I would be curious to see some data on this sometime. My reaction is like yours and I just walk out figuring I'll order it from Amazon. Retail businesses are struggling and I suspect creating an unpleasant shopping experience doesn't help them

Keep trying. Keep making a case to the American people. Put the Republicans in a position where they are perceived as un American, un patriotic, unhuman even, if they do not vote to impeach. It's really not that hard to understand, and honestly shouldn't be that hard for Democrats to do.

It costs US businesses over 2 trillion a year to provide insurance to employees. That's money they could use to invest and grow. Suggest you introduce a Medicaid for All bill and name it something like the Make Business Better act and promote it as a pro business and capitalism bill.

daringfuture.bsky.social @daringfuture.bsky.social · 22/07/2026
It makes no sense. It's not just the cost of premiums, it's the admin costs around it too. There's a huge opportunity cost to providing healthcare—and many employees would prefer universal healthcare. So why don't the companies want to get this off their books and have universal healthcare?
030
daringfuture.bsky.social @daringfuture.bsky.social · 22/07/2026
It costs US firms over $2 trillion to provide health insurance to employees, and that's just the cost of premiums, I think. It's ~$10k for an individual and ~$16k for a family on average. So....Instead of gushing over AI, wouldn't the smarter business move be to advocate for universal healthcare?

What I don't understand is why US companies don't want Medicare for all. Providing, paying for, and dealing with health insurance is an enormous cost to US firms of all sizes. Seems like they would want that off their books to increase profits and free up money for investing in their businesses.

Um, aren't you in congress? And by the way, how do you feel about all the little kids in Iran who were murdered by US bombs? At least the service members were adults who signed up voluntarily to put themselves in danger.

Art and culture are “what you have to lose with an administration like this,” Rollins adds. “They hate science. They hate literacy. They hate women. They hate nonwhite people. They hate LGBTQ people. Those....groups, they make things that make life great. They want to eradicate it and erase it.”

“If you lose culture in your society, the society dies,” Rollins says. “If you lose your art museums and your galleries, all you have is thugs and fighting and people being mean. In times of trouble, art gives us the backbone to keep fighting. It gives you inspiration.”

“Of course Ian and I are going to work for free,” Rollins told me via Zoom. “No money was ever offered or asked for. I don’t want a dollar. I’ve got the bucks. Isn’t this what you spend money on?"
