Don't worry, I can be angry about lots of things at the same time.

One, this hilariously outs who all got the talking points in advance and how blatantly they parrot those. Two, Schmitt really thought today he'd launch himself to the VP nomination and with that a decent shot at the presidency down the line. Instead this is the only thing he'll be remembered for.

If you are a Californian and you are concerned about billionaires' (& big tech) stranglehold over politics and policies - voting YES on 40 should be a basic first step. Prop 40 is nowhere enough but it's least CA can do. And also vote NO on 41 and 42 - poison pills pushed by billionaires/Big Tech.

Straight white man with ivy league degrees and a tenured position thinks elections "feel" existential to people because his entitled life isn't facing existential threaths. And Sarah Isgur shouldn't be able to show her face in public.

No one’s calling it Lake America. “Lake America” is what you name a summer camp for soft children who say, “Don’t you know who my father is?” after a t-ball stand strikes them out

Will Gavin Newsom choose the billionaires or the people? Solano County said no to “California Forever,” a private billionaire city. The billionaires said “hold my champagne.” Now they’ve hired Newsom’s own political team to push the project through a shady deal. YouTube deleted this video!

👀 “The Powell memo outlined a strategy. Unite corporate special interests, privilege corporate perspectives in the media, appoint sympathetic judges to the court, and buy politicians in both political parties” - @jamestalarico.bsky.social This is good stuff.

It sometimes feels like we're living in a ridiculously exaggerated folk tale with wildly implausible villains. For example, as the president takes billions for himself and his family and *coats his things in gold,* the soldiers fighting his war can't get toothpaste, hot water, or a clean toilet.

Thinking about the *multiple* (more than 7) recent conversations I’ve had with men who find interactions with LLM’s delightful and enjoyable and who joke about the flattery ans obsequiousness but clearly enjoy it I hate these conversations. Also: zero similar conversations with women.

How would I get by without AI? If I need a factually-dubious opinion expressed in a cliched manner with unearned confidence, I’ll just talk to a straight white cis man. I can get by on small-batch, locally-sourced, artisanal mansplaining, the way we always used to.

PG&E: We did the bare minimum one would expect from a business and sourced materials at the best cost. We want to increase what our customers pay anyway so we we can give that cash to our share holders. CA PUC: Of course, is there anything else we can do for you? Foot rub? Snack?

The obvious solution is for these parents, who think they get a yes/no vote on everything taught, to pull their kids out of the most prestigious public school in the city and home school them. I'm confident the slots they open up will be quickly filled by kids who can handle learning racism exists.

If roughing up a girlfriend and locking her in a room was a virile, authentic a rejection of “smoothgroined” “HR lady” politics, but a rape is too far, then what’s at stake is not a principled rejection of violence against women but a cynical assessment of how much violence a man can get away with.

My company makes everyone do Myers Briggs and I've found the test is laughably gameable if your goal is to have a result too vague to be meaningful. So I'm officially borderline on all of the categories except introvert because I figured that was most likely to get people to leave me alone.

Donald Trump is a very stupid fucking person who genuinely has no idea how anything works and the U.S. press should never be allowed to live down their failure in communicating this mercilessly and clearly to the U.S. public

"It's crucial that you send us $20 so we can fight" <they do no fighting> Makes a lot more sense when you find out they're getting millions from some of the same people they supposedly want to fight.

I don't see myself spending another dime on Giants tickets or gear any time soon. I stuck with them through good years, bad years, and execrable years, but they can miss me with the homophobic years. Homophobia’s just something that I don’t morally support.
