Joanna Schaffhausen @joannaschaffhausen.bsky.social · 05/07/2026The certainty with which people report this, and other imagined scenarios involving a Harris win, makes no sense to me. I get the impetus; she came so close! That leads to 100 different "if onlys." But 2024 was a huge anti-incumbent year (THEY ALL LOST!) and Harris was an incumbent. 000

Joanna Schaffhausen @joannaschaffhausen.bsky.social · 28/09/2025I don’t think this is true. Biden didn’t lose bc he was old. He lost bc ppl were mad at Dems. You can tell bc they elected a man almost as old… 010
Joanna Schaffhausen @joannaschaffhausen.bsky.social · 28/08/2025I guessed this one almost exactly. Statistical modeling for the win! 010

Joanna Schaffhausen @joannaschaffhausen.bsky.social · 11/03/2025My kind of movies: 5. Hapless guy realizes too late that he’s in love & now he must do a grand gesture 4. Lawyers get justice for wronged people 3. Nerds to the rescue! 2. Someone finds a piece of paper that proves THEY KNEW THE WHOLE TIME 1. Late reveal makes you rethink the whole plot 020

Reposted by Joanna Schaffhausen Nicholas Grossman @nicholasgrossman.bsky.social · 06/02/2025If “first they came for” means anything: Trans people are clearly one of the first they’re coming for. Calls to go along with, even help that effort—because you think it’ll boost the party brand with some voters, or avoid dividing the working class, or whatever you tell yourself—deserve a hard no. 13497130

We stand together. We fight together. We protect each other.” Mood two: “He did what now? Fuck all those motherfuckers. Fuck all of this.” 48801125

Joanna Schaffhausen @joannaschaffhausen.bsky.social · 15/11/2024This is astute. The FDA e.g. has issues and Trump's solution is "GET RID OF IT" but having no food & drug safety would be awful. So Dems are forced to defend imperfect institutions & message nuance ("We will improve it by doing X!") and that inevitably moves them into policy wonk & away from vibes. 064

Me: That's too bad because we are not getting Cheddar Bunnies. E: I must have some Cheddar Bunnies! Me: Nope, that's not happening. E: ...Well, then how about Starbucks? 040
