Roughly a quarter of Americans consider themselves to be democratic socialists - more than consider themselves allied with the MAGA movement. Which translates into roughly half of Democrats considering themselves democratic socialists AP-NORC poll apnorc.org/wp-content/u...

Ich glaube man muss die Sorgen ernst nehmen und jetzt auf die Wähler_innen tu gehen und die Politik der stimmenstärksten Partei durch die Bank umsetzen. Berlin hat gezeigt, dass die etablierten Parteien keine Antworten auf das Themenfeld Soziales haben und es ein Fehler war das zu Tabuisieren.

Hardly a day goes by without my getting email from someone looking for ways to do good with tech. From computer science students thinking about post-grad careers to seasoned coders with decades of experience, there's an army of hackers looking for a way to turn their expertise into public goods. 1/

Another banger by Cory. Highly encourage reading it. I think this is why people like Mamdani scare the centrists so much- By showing government can work, work well, and improve your lives, centrists have to put up or not get elected. And that pisses off the donor class they really represent.

A decade ago, analysts were calling Spain a cautionary tale. Too much solar, too fast! Today, Spain is rapidly on its way to having the cheapest power in Europe. Maybe this time, solar naysayers will learn... haha, jk, they'll just move the goalposts.

Spain just became one of Europe's cheapest power markets. Here is how.

How wind and solar quietly pushed gas off the margin, and the wholesale price followed.

If public banking threatens both commercial and shadow banking, the coalition against it includes actors who disagree about everything else. That's a useful diagnostic: when opponents who hate each other both oppose the same reform, the reform is probably touching something structural.

when we mourn le guin, we mourn one of our greatest writers & thinkers. but we also mourn one of our all-time greatest haters

All you do is take all the sex out, and use little short words, and little dumb ideas, and don't be too scary, and be sure there's a happy ending. Right? Nothing to it. Write down. Right on.

If you do all that, you might even write Jonathan Livingston Seagull and make twenty billion dollars and have every adult in America reading your book.

But you won't have every kid in America reading your book. They will look at it, and they will see straight through it, with their clear, cold, beady little eyes, and they will put it down, and they will go away. Kids will devour vast amounts of garbage (and it is good for them) but they are not like adults: they have not yet learned to eat plastic.
