Thomas Jerome @thomasjerome.com · 4hBecause if there's one thing that's apparent in the music industry, it's that musical talent is a barrier of entry begging to be lowered. By definition, the people clamoring for this have no interest in lowering the barrier for creativity. They want a lower barrier to make money without effort. 110

Thomas Jerome @thomasjerome.com · 15hVoting for the 2002 AUMF should have been a career-ender, and in the 2008 primary, it looked like it might finally be one. Then we ended up with Clinton running foreign policy and then, somehow, for president, Biden as president, and Schumer as party leader in the Senate. 030
Thomas Jerome @thomasjerome.com · 15hI see the ambulatory carcass of Ralph Nader is being dragged out for another round of "let's pretend the Iraq War could never have happened if Al Gore were President," presumably because blaming him is less embarrassing than noting how the post-Obama Democratic leaders all voted for that war. 120
