yeah what this actually is is not “lol the DCCC is broke” it’s “we think we can win way more districts than we originally thought, please give us some more money so we can run up the score” this is good and we want them to succeed

I think there's a better than even chance Hegseth tries to make himself one of the executioners on December 3rd. If he does, I think there is a 3:1 chance he botches the shot.

He also collected board wargames about the Indochina War and Vietnam War. He apparently contacted a designer to say he liked the guy's Dien Bien Phu game shortly before he died, iirc.

Somebody is professing loyalty to the Republican nominee while stabbing him in the back in every opportunity. I'm not saying I know who it is, Angela, but I'm pretty sure it's somebody very close to him

The political economy of a nuanced version of Section 230 is now cooked and the First Amendment risks following along the same path.

Positioning the 1A as a barrier to every intervention without offering alternatives that at least acknowledge the problems is now empowering bad solutions from bad actors who are happy to take advantage of the politics and disregard the 1A to their own advantage.

We're about 25 years too late to start building *great* solutions but laissez-faire/Linux-on-the-desktop/hacking-our-way-to-the-promise-land fantasies, gaslighting the problems, and insisting the benefits outweigh the costs are ideas running out of political time.

While IMO the Meta settlement is weak (and probably harmful) soft law, Kingsbury Commitment-style tea, I at least directionally agree with @morganweiland.bsky.social that the reflexive 1A critiques, especially the jawboning worries, are doctrinally (and politically) exhausting and unhelpful.

Sometimes my wife and I like to send each other text messages as though they’re democratic fundraising messages, and I believe she has produced the jewel of the form.
, it's
and I
have some personal news to share with you.
Being a mom is one of the greatest joys of my life, and I feel deeply that we should have salad tonight
This year has been challenging in many ways, and I have immense gratitude for the kindness and support of family, community, and people like you who have continued to stand by me through everything. It means the world, and I wanted you to be among the first to know that squash is in the oven and kale is in the fridge.As many of you are aware, ve been navigating one of the most challenging periods of my day while waiting for dinner.
Facing baseless federal hunger brought on by not eating since lunch, fighting for the working kids of this country, and now caring for a mean toddler and helping him grow up in a world that isn't always easy. But it has also reminded me exactly why I do this work and who I do it for.
I will never stop working to eat dinner. I will never stop fighting for what is right, even when there is also some feta in the fridge. And I will never stop being so very thankful that you are by my side in this important work and that there is tahini in the pantry for dressing
With love and gratitude,
stop to end

Found the email I sent when I got accidentally added to the faculty listserv of an orthopedic surgery clinic and nobody would remove me so I sent this email to all faculty/staff/med students and they removed me almost immediately
Hello Bone Colleagues, 
I have invented a new type of ankle and I'm very excited to show it to you. Early raccoon trials suggest a 60% increase in scurrying speed and dramatic increases in fine motor banditry. I know we are not supposed to create super raccoons, but I think you'll change your mind and professional ethics when you see how cute they are. I believe we are on the cusp of a new era in advanced human scurrying because if medical science has taught me anything, it's that improvements in raccoons correspond 1:1 to improvements in humans.

Or taking it the other way, okay fine it's a stochastic parrot. But apparently parrots _can_ solve complex problems, self-correct, do research, etc etc because eppur, si muove, QED, etc. Massive props to the parrots.
