"When I was ten, I read fairy tales in secret and would have been ashamed if I had been found doing so. Now that I am fifty I read them openly. When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up" - C.S. Lewis

There is a vision of what the Real Electorate is in the minds of people like this that is mostly about their own experience of their long-ago childhood and is not troubled at all by reality, in which women in lower income households are overwhelmingly part of the workforce and long have been

The thing about iced coffee at interviews is that iced coffee people cannot be normal about their drinks. It is like bringing a wet fidget spinner with you.

Sometimes i google Ally McBeal — that 90s legal drama where all the bathrooms were unisex and nobody cared except to think it was so cosmopolitan and cool — just to make sure i didn’t make all that up.

This makes me hopeful. This number is aspirational but nowhere near out of reach: a working professional could realistically cash out their 401k and buy off a public official. Owning a senator is more attainable for most Americans than home ownership.

This screen grab really made me feel the deep elitism of the anti-diversity crowd. They only want to hear from and about the most privileged people. The lives of ordinary people are beneath their notice.
