I love when millionaire politicians sell out millions of Americans who rely on ACA subsidies for their healthcare.

Also, someone tell this asshole Angus King to stop cosplaying like Joshua Chamberlain and shave that look-a-like mustache.

At least Chamberlain knew how to hold a fucking line.

@senangusking.bsky.social retire early old man. This spending deal YOU helped craft betrays all working class Mainers who rely on ACA tax credits to afford some semblance of healthcare.

I have a small child. We’re barely getting by as is. Guess I’ll say goodbye to healthcare. Thanks, you fuck.

I’ll chat you offline, but I’m really surprised we disagree on this candidate.

We know his platform (very good), we know his past (blemished), we know the tattoo (a super bad thing).

We also know Maine voters and, idk if you have, but I had convos with the guy before he ran. He’s sincere.

I disagree, it does matter who put it out there. It also matters what his platform is and how authentic his personal change is.

I’m not excusing the tattoo, but I do think it’s important to see someone as they are now and, if vying to be elected, what they will fight for moving forward.

I would ask: do you know Maine voters?

As a Mainer, I can say this is a land of 2nd chances. People like authenticity, rough edges, and working hard to become better.

Then ask: who is putting this info out there and why?

The answer is establishment Dems afraid of the change he represents

Took the kiddo for a morning walk and felt compelled to take advantage of the creepy season.

Loving the idea of the fire department calling the paper and being like, “well hold up, we did save SOME …”

We’re two weeks out from the election. Jeffries endorsing him at this point doesn’t tip the needle at all.

I agree, we will win, but it has nothing to do with politicians like Jeffries coming around at the last minute. It has everything to do with a mass ground game.

No other video podcast gives you hard hitting analysis like @yourkickstartersucks.com. The hosts come prepared with serious, well thought out arguments on film and consumerism every time.

There is a perfect movie. It’s called Sneakers. It is perfect for any occasion. Sneakers is perfect.

Got cocky and joined a pickup soccer league made up of mostly 20-somethings. I am in my late 30’s.

Second match in I pull my quad early on and try to play it off like I’m cool.

I wasn’t, and after 10 more minutes I had to announce I’m going home because I’m hurt.

Don’t get old, kids

I sometimes wonder if Bernie was the modern left’s Goldwater. Sure he lost, but just wait another 40 years …

Sometimes The Unauthorized Biography of Reinhold Messner just hits.

Pretty sure I’m more psyched about my cat’s new water fountain than she is.

I keep pointing to it saying “pretty nice, right?” But she doesn’t seem to care at all.

A very good comrade is running for Town Council in Brunswick, Maine. She’s running on affordability, accessible transit, and much more! Please check her out and, if you live locally, consider volunteering!

Being kicked out of a Big Apple because I described a liquor as “autumnal”

What Ted Danson, an Alfa Romeo, and Double Dare with Marc Summers can teach us about accepting dystopia.

Riding my 1 yr old across the kitchen like she’s a worm in Dune.

You underestimate how much this hit for a specific demographic: 8-14 yr olds renting VHS from their local libraries in the early to mid 90’s.

My daughter is about to turn one, and so I increasingly ask myself this every day. Sliding her into her pink socks and handing her her pink bunny, I feel my wax wings melting. Call me Ic-her-us.

Scene: a county fair. My fiancé is emerging from the porta-potty to find me and our baby somehow both covered in mustard.

The soundtrack:

My partner noticed a city worker measuring our tree in the front yard and sent me out to ask whats up.

So I opened the door and said “hey big dog! Are we losing our tree?” Apparently it’s just a survey. But my partner recommended that maybe I shouldn’t call strangers “big dog” any more.

So basically you could have just said they’re not good?

Regal is the word for it

You don’t need training to become a martial arts master. You just need a one year old tumbling toward the edge of a bed to unleash your powers.

Was talking barber shops with my buddies and realized that possibly the best haircut I ever got was at this small home front business in Vietnam where the guy spoke no English and sort of just guessed.

We need more barbers guessing.

Okay hear me out. It’s me captaining a small skiff. I have four to five tourists onboard and they’re all happy. I’m bringing them out to a beautiful cliff called vagina rock. We get there and I take my cap off, smiling. “There she is. Vagina rock.” Everyone claps and loves it.

Why would you watch shitty MAGA Jack Ryan when you can watch stupid, just dumb as shit, Reacher?

Graham is legit. I’ve been in some calls with him and he sincerely believes in organizing for a better world. Would be hard pressed to find a better candidate this cycle.
