A funny potential polling miss is Florida being comfortable dem while some of these plains states slip away leaving us, like, “Florida is a diverse state with several huge cities, obviously it was the easier get.”

We need to amend the California constitution and be rid of the propositions and recalls. This is ludicrous.

For God's sake. The Fire Department should not have a veto over traffic calming measures on any street that allows on-street parking. If fire access is a priority then get rid of on-street parking FIRST. Until then they don't get a say.

Property taxes are used to fund sinecures for the people who work in local government. Roads are provided to my driveway by divine right as a homeowner.

One of the adds against the billionaire’s tax hits it for saying that it claims to be a one-time tax but the legislature can extend it. Like, motherfuckers, the legislature can tax you whenever! Thats what the legislature does!

Cool, someone just drove by on my street and apparently randomly fired a bunch of shots. AFAICT no one hurt.

I don't wanna COUCH my words here: I know JD Vance, his eyeliner, and absent Ashley Moody are used to running away from people when things get tough because they care more about themselves and their billionaire buddies than the people they represent. But this is my home. /1

That discourse doing the rounds about chimp fighting and how chimps always win is the clearest example, right? Physically superior on an individual level and the clear runner-up on organization. And as a species we decided philosophically that we shouldn’t let them be driven to extinction.

if you think about it, winning via a direct connection to the divine father of all creation through His appointed emissary on Earth is a much more egregious cheating scandal than banging on trash cans

I have had the exact same thought. I did just land here. I didn’t know shit about the bay when I moved here. But it too like six months to know I’d never live anywhere else in the Bay.

Oakland: "You have to want to live here, you don’t just show up here." This is spectacular, sharp and true. Oakland and San Francisco have never felt more different than they do today. For every problem the East Bay has, it five times as much community and humanity. The vibes here are alive.

I realize for the Nazis that the beard thing isn’t about beards it’s about race and religion, but like, does that land with normal center-right and even mid-right people? The mind of the normie is inscrutable but surely they don’t assume bearded people are bad soldiers?

In high school I worked at a church camp near Stockton and like 10 years ago i was thinking about that and got this urge to get someone with a boat to take me around the upper parts of the delta. No idea how to make that happen.

Well, I-80 through northern Nevada beats it for me. But 65 is terrible except for the bridge over the delta. I didn’t appreciate until I left the south how rare that kind of interstate scenery is.

Flying from SF to Mobile sucks, so before we were married my wife and I made a trip of flying to Nashville (she wanted to see it) driving to Mobile, and flying home out of New Orleans. It is… so far. Like Birmingham to Mobile feels like too far and that’s not the whole way lol.

We need a state constitutional convention to (a) end ballot initiatives, (b) disempower cities, (c) expand and empower the state legislature.
