Seriously though do we have a plan? To move as forcefully as we fairly and legally can, for however many branches of government we control, to both undo what was done, make positive progress, and write laws that fairly enforce all the things we used to rely on norms of reasonableness for?

That’s the real sophomore philosophy exam, isn’t it? Absorb the possibility of solipsism and still decide to be decent to other people

β€œThe core weakness of suicidal empathy.” It’s a sad worldview that generates that kind of formulation.

There’s only one defense, it’s the tactical wipes that Alex Jones sells.

I don't know how you all are going to feel about this but, although otherwise I voted a straight democratic ticket, I left Attorney General blank. Could not get past the violent text messages.

Good morning Virginia! Good morning 5th district folks! Polls are open. You know what to do. It’s a great day to vote!

He is such a breath of fresh air over what goes through my head so often when I hear republicans and democrats side by side, which is no wonder people vote for republicans, they sound authentic and we sound like we’re hedging.

I agree. Mamdani does seem very talented, but not uniquely so. His interview answers are amazing, and I think that’s partly him but also it’s easier to answer well when you’re not repressing the real answer in order to tack to the center.

I would support very harsh sentences if convicted, but let’s not forget about the part where they get a fair trial.

On the bright side this spring you’ll get to answer an urgent request for an explanation of the drop in site traffic during the 2am hour with β€œuh that is because there was no 2am hour” πŸ˜‚

I’ve heard some calls to demolish the ballroom as soon as we take back the white house. I think my preference would be to put an absolutely enormous black history museum in it.

Solid people on both sides from Lenox to Hydraulic which is about 2500 feet. In some parts maybe 1 person per 5 feet, in some parts several people per foot. If the average was 1 on each side per 3 feet then rough estimate 1700 people. Not bad for a town of 45,000!

Thousands out in Charlottesville for #NoKings . Much bigger than last time. Nonstop honks of support. This photo is just our little corner well out from the main group. Really proud that my elementary age son chose to join me this time. Here’s his sign!

Not guilty verdict in ICE case sends stark message to Trump DOJ’s political prosecutions It’s not only grand jurors who have rejected the Trump administration’s charges. A trial jury just did the same.

www.msnbc.com/deadline-whi... extraordinary level of grand jury pushback against the Trump DOJ. I have some familiarity with the grand juries and the ham sandwich thing really is true. The average juror is extremely deferential to prosecutors, and these cases don’t even clear that lowest of bars.

I’ll be out there looking as suburban dad as possible to counter the no-no-kings fear mongering through sheer force of mildness πŸ˜†

Let’s brainstorm some sign ideas for the No Kings protest on October 18. I’m thinking about β€œMake racial profiling illegal again.”

I work in AI and often find myself against the general blue sky take on it (while agreeing with just about every other common take on here) but this I agree with completely. It’s super easy to just have the ai identify itself and there is no downside for legitimate business.
