Man, this answer from Ta-Nehisi Coates about how he felt about Kamala Harris saying that she wants to have “the most lethal fighting force in the world” is really good. He talks about why she might feel like she has to say that, but gives most of his response to the victims of that lethality

Cop is subject of community complaints (including for punching a driver in the face during a traffic stop). Local newsroom files a public records request about him. Eugene, Ore says sure thing, that’ll cost $2.5 million and take at least 44,000 hours to complete. My latest for @theintercept.com:

Oregon Police Are Charging a Local News Outlet $2.5M for Records About One Cop
Eugene-based Double Sided Media requested police officer Justin Peckels’s records. The city slapped the publication with an exorbitant fee.

So, uh, the #EugeneOR police absurdly wants $2.6 million for two records requests we submitted after already charging us $500+ just to start. VERY NORMAL.

Pretty clear to me there’s a very good case against this man for mass murder, and I’m saying that in as measured a fashion as I can. He’s order the killing of 234 people under no plausible war or legal justification. I am skeptical he will ever face legal accountability for til his but he should.

Let me give you the actual solution to this problem. Universities and colleges have to hire football players as union employees (AFL-CIO, same as the NFL), with no requirement to attend school. They get health and retirement benefits, and are limited to a five year employment contract.

One of the most inspired casting decisions of my lifetime was Tom Hanks leading a war movie. He was and is a goofy dad type. He looks like an English teacher. And that really is who won the war -- it wasn't a bunch of preening Crossfitters, it was the guy in line with you at Ace Hardware.

So that's the thing. I grew up Mormon. And there are ~progressive poly folks~ who insist "Oh but haha we're not doing it BAD like those crazy Mormons did, we're GOOD people!" and then merrily describe doing shit that "oppressed Mormon sister wives in the 1860s" 100% would not have put up with.

It's the height of presumptuousness to think you can toss a vulnerable minority overboard in an effort to win, then still feel entitled to their vote. Politics is about making decisions. When you cut loose Muslims or transgender people, they shouldn't vote for you. And you shouldn't cry about it.

There’s such an easy answer to this “gotcha” question and it’s “Sports are inherently unsafe and unfair and it’s ridiculous to single out trans athletes when we allow 150 pound linebackers to go up against 260 pound linemen in freshman football on a daily basis. Let kids play with their friends.”
