What kind of woke bullshit is "studying history"? We're an unstoppable military force that absolutely knows not to repeat mistakes of history through sheer will power!

Has anyone come up with a good way to cushion the economy from oil price shocks since the 1970s? Asking for a planet.

MedicareForAll, high-speed cross-country rail, a trillion for breakthrough medical treatments, a boom in federal housing construction, the cleanest of energies - just a bonanza of optimistic policies. Brought to you by taxing the rich.

This is probably some naive ahistorical shit on my part, but it FEELS like opposition to DJT needs to come up with a moonshot of a political platform. DJT is dragging us all back to a mix of 1950s and 1830s and rather than just say "we'll restore the good old 1990s" someone needs to promise more.

Not that it will but the willingness of Americans to obey is a very funny contrast with our self-image and should probably prompt some reflection bsky.app/profile/jonf...

Already made a note in my calendar to look out for next year's FIFA Peace Prize recipient. Cannot wait to confirm my suspicion that this "annual" prize was a one-time ass-kissing.

a charitable version of me thinks this also looks like someone listening to their favorite song. Although in this case the song is just loud sounds of lips smacking against his ass.

That swing in the Black vote of 15% or so is huge, holy-moly.

Check out my list on Amazon

Friends, I'm trying to purchase some Arduino kits for my engineering classes. If you're able to either purchase or share, I'd be so appreciative!

- Rich, powerful people abusing the system and the less rich and less powerful. Should we bring in the guillotine?

- No, all you need is Tai Chi and indoor walking.

Parents began planning to take their kids out of NYC schools minutes after Zohran Mamdani’s mayoral win A top school placement consultant says he’s been flooded with calls since the election results came in.

This is so absurd. Some people are just so primed for fear.

@rosen.senate.gov you're negotiating the end of the shutdown for the promise of process as opposed to concrete concessions?? Is the Senate seat so warm that you are afraid to swing big and lose it? Stay in the fight. GOP is fully in charge and your concessions to them make it more so.

Hey Sarah, I actually reached out to you via your campaign e-mail this summer, but i think that got lost somewhere. But hi, 1) I'm a pretty good editor and 2) I'm just normal employed for a few more weeks. Free in December/January! DM me, let's talk!

I agree with this and I think it puts me outside of the analysis of some people I respect. I think that some of us don't understand the Right as having its own specific social program and adherents INDEPENDENT of the Left(s).

'Cause there's nothing else going on, just play Congress for a few weeks. Debate a law, iron out internal differences and then instead of complaining about Johnson to the press, come out and say "here, we got another law we think is good. If only the other half was here. anywayz, back to work!"

this is a dumb idea, but it appeals to me. What if @schumer.senate.gov and @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social just started holding legislative sessions of just Dems. And start presenting legislation you would LIKE to pass. Real legislation you think will be a big hit with the public.
