Can someone please post that chart that showed Ossoff’s votes. It gets the point across clearly and I want to share it with some folks. TIA

Yeah. Sigh, already getting hard to even have a simple conversation with certain folks who’ve checked out on some issues.

You’re delusional. As long as $$ is a developer’s/landlord’s goal, then pols and markets and courts will be manipulated to keep rents high. Go ahead, build a ton of housing…check back in ten years.

Can’t wait to see all the developers and RE cartels volunteering to lower their rents and leave $ on the table. Seems they’d be more likely to abandon buildings full of vacant units and default consequence-free on loans, then sue if challenged (like 47 used to do.)

You’re delusional if you think a simple increase in supply is going to drive down rents.

tedbrinkleybmore.bsky.social @tedbrinkleybmore.bsky.social · 06/10/2026
Go ahead build all the housing you want. You are deluded if you think that will bring down rent. Seriously, check back in 3, 5, 10 years and let’s see after various building frenzies whether rents are down and whether developers have gotten even fatter.

YIMBY delusion: build a bunch and rents will Magically drop. No. As long as $$-driven builders n RE cartels control the stock via Private Ownership, why will they agree to lower their rents etc? They fight against regs and reqs to build affordable units. File bankruptcy or sue to avoid debt payment.

Hopefully there’s good outreach on TikTok and IG letting all the great queer/different/nonconformist Youth across the country know that they Are Welcome in our urban communities and will find friends and supporters and acceptance there.

Or maybe also the banana cream pie part (c.f. the yippies in the 1970s re Anita Bryant and many others.)

It’s perhaps criminal/crazy that teams have private owners, who can move a team that has a geographic/historic appropriate name to an entirely different place where the name has no direct relevance—and fans and taxpayers suffer while the owner does whatever they want, with impunity.

F the NYT. It’s one thing to report on a person but another thing to platform them in a manner that serves to legitimize.

KG wants to lay the groundwork for eventual sanding down of what she perceives as Nixon’s rough edges, no doubt. Doubtless, as a buyable pol herself, she thinks anyone can be bought.

In California Governor Newsom just signed a bill allowing the fire mitigation folks to spray tons of glyphosate all over the seedlings sprouting in the aftermath of fires. SB 1370 IIRC. Just FYI…

Except for a few left/progressive upstarts, which D leadership appears to resent, the party doesn’t act like an opposition party: they’re behind the reasoning/messaging for the war. Reluctant to defund Israel. Tepid anodyne statements against some of DJT’s most egregious actions.

Lula in Brazil is buying the debts of the poor from creditors at a 90 percent haircut and then forgiving the debt. We need similar serious actions here: a student debt jubilee.

Xi is not much of a ‘communist’ more like a ‘state-capitalist autocrat. You should think about having more of a ‘class warfare’ analysis.

The party that never does full court presses suddenly needs about twenty of them out of the gate. Has the parliamentarian weighed in?

One thing Leftists have an easier time noticing than do liberals: Ruling Classes RECOGNIZE each others’ shared objectives even when they’re from different countries etc, and even when they’re ostensible enemies. Global Oligarchy Consolidation underway currently.

There are also words for the members of the so-called opposition party that do nothing in response, and for the members of the media who report it all in terms and tones straight out of Public Relations 101.

Wow you are such a genius. Those southern states weren’t always red. Why don’t you work on convincing your neighbors to shift their POV a bit and maybe flip your state to Blue? Then get back to us.

Agreed completely and grateful for everyone’s tremendous work on all of this. Please find a better term than transhumanism (and tescreal). Might be precise but to most of us it’s opaque and non-resonant.

I’m entirely sympathetic, an absolute ally—but I have a feeling that Tescreal is maybe never going to break through. There needs to be a better more direct Depiction. 99.99 percent of us aren’t even sure what is transhumanism….and y’all lose us there at the outset.

Most certainly. Owners are almost without exception RW, racist, pro Israel, pro military. They ‘re oligarchs who use games and telecasts for Riefenstahlian tableaus of Jingoistic nationalism, misogyny and labor exploitation. They donate to DJT and control markets for lots of other products too.

We rarely see the GOP asking the parliamentarian for permission. Expect the Parliamentarian to make a big comeback in 2029 if there’s a Dem in the WH. Sigh…
