I think anybody complaining about Ralph Nader in 2026 is a huge fucking loser. Do republicans still whine about Ross Perot? Unlike Nader, he actually got a lot of votes

A useful way to think about it is to imagine a republican candidate saying one thing that you liked, agreeing with you on exactly one issue. That would totally work, right? Donald Trump announces he’s for one thing you are also for and then you vote for him. See how stupid it sounds.

Certain kinds of smart people tend to have a "sexy apocalypse" problem when it comes to thinking about risk. E.g. skynet turning everyone in paperclips, while bad, is also *kind of cool and fun* at the same time. Where the reality is that most actual disasters are both stupid and disappointing.

So the answer to "during his time on earth, did Jesus ever see an armadillo?" is: "the armadillo is nocturnal so it really all depends on what time of day it was when the Devil got round to showing him the Americas."

The unspoken part of "Vote blue no matter who" is that you are supposed to be making an educated decision about candidates who have been honest about who they are and what they support. And the candidates are not holding up their end of the deal.

so much is less "they're good because they're MY team" and far more "they're good, because *i'm* good, and i voted for them and supported, so if they weren't good, that would make me start getting really uncomfortable thoughts about myself" so out comes the 4-d chess to square those circles

I’ll vote for Ossoff or any other Dem to end this nightmare but while I think the next Dem will be more competent and less naive than Biden, we need someone willing to nuke SCOTUS and take a hammer to every institution in this country. I’m skeptical that person currently exists.

i do find it sort of sweet how people get offended at the idea of destroying a book, any book. presumably they'd vomit if they ever saw the back room of any book store or library, but still. it's charming, in a really naive way.
