Please, I beg you, do not tell your lawyer that she's wrong about the risks of your case and there's no way you can possibly lose because AI said so.
Please.
It makes your lawyer tear her hair out.

tl;dr there's some groundwork to get done first before an upstart 3rd party can succeed in the USA, unfortunately

The text reads: "'The forest was shrinking but the trees kept voting for the axe, for the axe was clever and convinced the trees that because his handle was made of wood he was one of them.' - Turkish proverb"
I think this perfectly sums up the argument against "Vote Blue no matter who." And anyone saying that we should accept the inevitability of a Newsom nomination in early 2026 deserves to be defenstrated through The Overton Window.

shattering the illusion that he's the "inevitable" nom is our only shot at maybe avoiding a 3peat defeat after '16 & '24.
and since we don't have $$ for bribes, all we've got for leverage is making it known that we'll withhold our votes en masse if they force him on us.
anyone wanting the GOP nom for prez to lose should be loudly shouting down talk of newsomβor his lighter, gentler fash ilk now wavering on full trans equalityβbeing the D nom, right now, while there's still time.

You still never told me what the point of this was. I mean really, do you even know half of these accounts? Do you have any proof of anything problematic they've said or are you just pointing it out.

before i dip:
not to speak for or over her, but since you acknowledge the hurt, @bellapiss.bsky.social might appreciate hearing a genuine "my mistake, sorry" from you and/or OP tho, esp with the week she's had
cheers

he definitely had to stop & rest more than once.
and this all happened in the middle of the afternoon! it's not like it was rush hour or anything. AND the bus was AHEAD OF SCHEDULE anyway! WHYYYYY
so, only after publicly sharing a misinformed opinion about the situation do you want nothing to do with it.
we all fuck up sometimes, but "oops. i didn't have all the facts before i spoke, sorry" is so easy to type.
the very second he got to the stop & reached for the door, the driver took off.
partner ended up walking the ~20 blocks back home, fuming, with a worn-out, cranky toddler & no stroller or sling. day ruined.
partner was leaving the rec center w/ kiddo & saw the bus approaching (it arrived early) while he was only midway back to the bus stop. he put kiddo on his shoulders and ran, cutting across a field. even caught the driver's eye at one point.
