The Douthat piece where he talks about the importance of AI closes with a sponsorship notice from a healthcare company using AI to deny claims.

Rewatching School of Rock with @erindwyer.bsky.social It did not age well. 1. Dewey Finn is a class traitor. The guy’s anti-social behavior led him to undermine working class musicians for private school child labor.

@erindwyer.bsky.social ‘s favorite part was I made sure my break partner was from Canada, so even if he beat me I would still be the state champ.

Big day for me today. I took first place in the Men’s 45+ Debaets-Devos crit race. Winning means I’m the Michigan state champ!! I raced smart and got in a breakaway with a person from the largest team. We held off the field, and I took it in the end!
Picture of a gold USAC medal and a debaets Devos pro-am 45+ First place trophy. The trophy is a relief map of the course from strava.

Do I love all of Jocelyn Benson’s policies and positions? Absolutely not. Will I vote for her in the general election? Absolutely. She will be much better than John Hames for Michigan. Making some ideological stance to not vote for her will make my life worse as a teacher.

Voting your conscience is bullshit. Voting should always be strategic.
History tells me that coalitions fail when they grow narrower and narrower, until at last they are very pure - and very ineffective. A perfectly pure, perfectly unified, perfectly tiny political party (think the libertarians), is, in the end, just a very opinionated book club - one that regularly loses elections, but with great moral satisfaction

Having money is not equal to buying elections. I’m pushing because you aren’t answering the question. HOW is she buying the election?

Perch Perchson @perchperchson.bsky.social · 27/07/2026
Hard disagree. Voting is a collective action. You are treating it like an individual choice. Personally, I think El-Sayed is unprepared for the role of senator due to never holding an elected position. Should I have not voted for him? My conscience says no. Yet my vote said yes.

Perch Perchson @perchperchson.bsky.social · 27/07/2026
Those people I spoke with today. I want to be in a coalition with them. I voted for Abdul and want him to win. They are voting for Stevens. If I’m asking them to stay in the coalition if their candidate loses, it’s only fair if I stay in if my candidate loses.

Perch Perchson @perchperchson.bsky.social · 27/07/2026
I’m well aware that she has money. But how is that money being spent to buy the election? The election isn’t going be one-sided. If Stevens wins it will because working class people (amongst others) voted for her. Some will vote against her. If more vote for her, she wins.

Perch Perchson @perchperchson.bsky.social · 27/07/2026
How exactly is she buying the primary? I’m just saying I ran into a lot of working class voters today that are voting for Stevens. If you’re not in a coalition with them that’s your choice.

Canvassing on the east side of Detroit today. People were NOT feeling Abdul El-Sayed. If you’re wondering how Stevens can win, go out and do some canvassing; I saw support for her today. If you want Abdul to win, it’s time to put in the work.

Maybe the other thing that some people will get through their THICK SKULLS is that most people who live & work in the US are WORKING CLASS. Teachers are WORKING CLASS. NURSES are WORKING CLASS. Social workers are WORKING CLASS. SO ARE STARBUCKS BARISTAS (who some seem to despise)....

I’m can live with these as things not to do, but what things should you and other people do? Not doing things isn’t a strategy. (For me, it’s getting much more involved in my union and working to build political power and agency of workers. )

The words you use to describe politics are themselves political. Framing Theory is the study of how language shapes perception. Not through lies, but through the implications embedded in words and structures. #medialiteracy #criticalthinking #rhetoric #journalism #linguistics
