If your position is that Democrats have no choice but to agree, than you are impliedly admitting the Democrats are no longer an opposition party because the cost of opposition is too high, and we are effectively a one party fascist state.

Write supportive letters to trans folks | Point of Pride You can write notes directly to trans folks in need of support, and provide powerful reminders that they are seen, supported, and valid.

Writing cards over lunch for this purpose was more moving than I expected. www.pointofpride.org/letter-writing

Here's another bit of conventional wisdom Zohran completely blew away: His speech was at well above a 10th-grade level. It was complex, erudite, punctuated by deep and fluent references. You don't have to condescend to voters with baby talk! Part of re-establishing norms is speaking like an adult.

Hi hello I wrote a whole book about AI and suicide, and my professional opinion is that this is very bad, and the way to fix it is by making quality mental healthcare free and accessible for everyone.

Haven’t been this emotionally invested in a World Series since 1989. And it’s not because Dalton Varsho is the first ever Major Leaguer from my alma mater.

The richest man on earth owns X.

The second richest man on earth is about to acquire TikTok and his family could soon own both Paramount and Warner Bros.

The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post.

See the problem here?

A lot going on. Simply appreciating I have a job where a normal hallway conversation includes the sentences: β€œLast week was rough. My bearded dragon had to have surgery.”

Rob's knowledge and passion for all things "nerdy" made our humble little website a better place. He had the same effect on countless other communities. A huge loss. I can't believe he's gone.

Three senior citizens in Chad Patrick shirts stand for the national anthem at game 2 of the NLDS between the Cubs and Brewers. On the far right is a tall man in a blue Chad Patrick shirsey. His family around him happily pointed out all night that was Chad Patrick’s grandpa.

We had SRO last night and settled on the railing at the back of section 103 in the right-field bleachers - behind Chad Patrick’s grandpa. The vibes were pristine all night, but after Chad’s inning, everybody showed so much love to the old man.

Sorry, he also cited deregulation being good for large companies as a contributing factor to each of us having nothing to worry about.

Relax, everyone. The rich guy in charge of a company that’s too big to fail says the economy is β€œstill in pretty good shape.” Not a thing to be concerned about. Especially with the AI infrastructure he credits.
