Interests and education in Science/engineering/economics fields, but mostly post about politics at the moment. Not revealing personal details. Salmon looks cool and I like cooking it, thus the name and picture.

Dem 2028 contenders: how do they seem to stack up? I see lots of speculation about "who gives speeches", polls, "who has what support", etc., but almost none on how they would actually do the job of president. Which is pretty darn important, as everyone is seeing right now.

Christian is a super talented artist who did an awesome political cartoon for The Handbasket (www.thehandbasket.co/p/sean-duffy...) Help support him and his mom!

Fuck me do I miss the Warren 2030 campaign. "Dropping in polls....Let's release an ocean policy, get some attention on issues that don't get much." Competence + Solid policies is the ticket. None of this "Smoothgroun" bullshit or hatred of educated people or what have you. Just lots of

Why Platner? Why such strong support for "lots of cheating, says he enjoyed killing, naxzi tattoo, etc."? Because there are a lot of insecure a$$holes out there, and they concentrate in politics. Simple explanation, but it describes a lot when you think it out.

So yeah, this post is obviously dumb or dishonest or both, because lots of people have stated out loud why Buttigieg is such a problem: supports moderate things, blatantly changed positions to whatever seemed popular at the time, some questionable career history. Which is typical of this poster.

I have noticed that southern moderates, in particular, who comment on politics are rather arrogant/entitled for people in the reddest part of the country. Though it was a solid south/super Tuesday leftover, but this description would match it as well.

I read the gelliottmorris.com post on quitting social media. Time to write some thoughts about it....on social media....yeah. 1. Spending too much time has been a problem at points, admittedly. This includes Bluesky as it happens. Not as bad as twitter and I have a generally good set of people

You should quit social media for good
Platforms optimized for engagement warp our politics, erode attention, and harm our wellbeing. Here’s how I minimize time on the (anti‑)social web.

If this is about the 107 days book, Shapiro suicide murder thing is not mentioned at all. Shapiro gets a mention for asking too much about where to hang pictures, and other small details along those lines.

If you are wondering why Trump gets away with so much, why institutional people bent over backwards for him, why dems were so resistant to things like impeachment.... Look at how often people argue "It isn't popular", "they didn't win", "X group hates it" etc. when arguing about a policy or a

I'll expand this a lot. Two big weaknesses: -Mental laziness -Seeing everything as a status competition are behind a lot of difficulties today. Have seen this personally and in politics.

All my starch + legume recipes (simplified to fit in one post each). Assume some salt added as well. Rice and Beans: Brown rice. Kidney beans + butter + pan browned andouille slices+ Ancho + Hatch Green chili + garlic powder. Cook beans to refried bean consistency, put on rice.

Mamdani just rubs me completely the wrong way. Too smooth and polished, gets forgiveness for things I've seen other politicians get attacked for, just too much of a smooth talking charisma guy.

Getting elected is applying for the job. Not the job itself Also this math is based in presumptions that do not actually .. count anything.

I am not famous enough to get death threats or much of any replies, really, but have the exact same reaction. Looked at Twitter just a bit ago and went from more or less neutral to raging mad. Its hard to say exactly how, but the place is just.....angrier. More negative. Choosing to shade things

Another angry one rages at "Defund the police" because "lost elections" "interferes with real goals", etc. and.....*sigh* here we go again. Why do people do this? Time for some observations -It isn't just with police reform, this crap happens with any lefty thing. Politicians are too woke,
‪David Simon‬
ACAB and Defund The Police -- the two most destructive messaging efforts from sloganeers who don't actually want to fix a fucking thing and will, at every opportunity, alienate the entire electorate from actual police reform for the sheer pleasure of their own self-regarding purities.

Eat a dick.

‪Elizabeth Spiers‬
no candidate has run on either of these things; Republicans just weaponize activist slogans to frame the conversation in a way that paints Dems as extremists , and unfortunately it seems like you’re taking the bait

‪David Simon‬
You know what they really didn't run on? Real fucking reform? They ran away from pursuing actual targeted reform of drug laws or prison crowding because, indeed, the GOP easily and handily tainted those worthy things with Defund and Abolish Prisons and all the other shitass rhetoric offered.

‪Karolina Muchova Fan Club‬
She has no response for progressives fully embracing defund in 2020 or them having to walk it back ever since. I did a lot of phonebanking in 2020 and I had voters asking me if Dems supported defund. It was a genuine problem as moderates like Spanberger later noted

Following up on this. This remains a ‘cave is minutes or hours away’ situation. If you want to impact how this plays out you need to contact senators literally now. I want to add additional points of context. What I’m relaying is what I’ve picked up from highly reliable sources.

In the time since Mamdani elected, New York has had -A few 1-5 minute delays on subways. Longer on busses -Some organized crime members think about committing murder -At least one apartment building smell of skunk -At least one bad experience at a normally well reviewed restaurant. Will New York

Weight has been up and down a lot, so I'll post here each time I measure it and see if that works as motivation. Was measured at 264 last time. ~200-210 is where it probably should be. Been in theory attempting to get there for Moore then a decade, but ad advice before 2016 for in the way.

Its not understanding problems that is the issue (plenty of people do that just fine), it is accepting that some exist and taking steps, often very simple, to fix them. Isn't just politics, I've had similar frustrations in day to day life (though can't compare to other countries), which has caused
