It's crazy. I never hear about this from the "Joe Biden owes me $600" brigade.

There seems to be an idea that advocates for safe bike infrastructure want to excuse and defend the right of reckless cyclists to ride recklessly. Absolutely not. We probably hate those guys more than you do. They are selfish, entitled, and endanger all of us.

my politics in one tweet is that markets and capitalism solve a lot of problems automatically and one of the main purposes of government is to deliberately distort price discovery where markets are insufficiently farsighted

10. Ensemble casts are more interesting than single protagonists, and most of the fun of writing characters is seeing how they interact and contrast, especially if you want to tell a truly original story—you’re not going to come up with a guy who’s weird in a way no guy in literature has ever been!

do you think Alito ever calls up a doughnut shop or whatever and is like "I want mint donuts" and they're like "we don't have mint today" and he's like "I checked the ancient texts and the Founding Fathers say you have mint today, I'm gonna be in in 10 minutes to pick it up"

Super quick human psychology question: when someone behaves in the way you’d like them to behave, is the best way to encourage that behavior to continue to: (1) praise them for it; or (2) be a dick about it?

Kind of neat to see California and by extension the rest of the country learn about election results stretching on for days and days like we've been having in Washington for years.

Near the end of their career, someone I knew who’d worked for decades in sustainability told me “I wanted to save the world, but the world didn’t want to be saved.” I’ve heard similar laments from people near or after the end of their career working on the environment. I think about this a lot. 🧵

Must be getting into election season. All the voices reacting to bad things the GOP does by complaining that Democrats never do anything (so why bother voting for them) are getting louder.

My Platner take: It is 100% correct that Platner winning, if he does, should not change who and what the Democratic Party is to be more like some shithead with a Nazi tattoo and we should shout down anyone who tries to make it so. But also, we should not concede ahead of time that it will be so.

So, the thing about politicians doing "plain speak that anyone can understand" is that the Republican response is "Nuh uh, taxes kill jobs," and people buy it. And then you have to explain why that's not true and you sound like a professor.

I criticize "one magic trick" posting on here a lot, but I feel like getting people to react to extreme stress by doing something other than posting how dems are messaging wrong and if they just messaged right, that would fix everything, well, that would fix everything.

Soapbox time: If Lindsay Graham is a closeted gay man, that's okay. He should be able to live as he chooses. There is no aspect of that choice that should be used to mock him. He should also not be mocked about it if he is not a gay man. Homophobia is bad.

I think arguments about whether people should announce in advance that they'll never vote for Gavin Newsom distracts from what is really important, which is, what are all the things that makes Gavin Newsom a shitbag that we all hate. That's all we should be talking about.
