Kamala Harris has a problem with men. Will misogyny cost her the election? | Simon Tisdall After a rousing start to her campaign, the Democratic candidate is flatlining in the polls, and sexism could swing the vote in Donald Trump’s favour

Sure, it's sexism, not the fact that she's supporting a genocide, is further right than Trump on immigration, and is offering nothing to voters during a period of immense hardship. πŸ™ƒ

Sexism is real. It's also not the deciding factor in this race. Core Dem constituencies are abandoning Harris.

I don’t know how to explain it to people who don’t understand that something of all of us is buried in Gaza’s mass graves.

One reason why marginal tax rates should be extremely high is so oligarchs don't start buying votes and straight up blowing up popular sovereignty

I have fking loved Cornel West since I started reading his books in ~2008. Love hearing him speak. Hope this gets sorted soon.

There's a sticker on a window that read, "Directed by DAVID LYNCH," and now my fucked up funhouse of a ilife doesn't seem QUITE as - no, that's not quite right. It's still a surreal, bizarre, whackadoo carnival of fuckery from hell. But at least if it's taking place in a Lynchian universe, I can assuage my devastating anxiety and terror with the knowledge that all of this is ordinary in Lynchworld. Now all I have to do is keep an eye out for anything that seems NORMAL in the NORMAL sense... because that's the shit that'll really fuck you up.

Stuck this to the window and now the world makes a LITTLE more sense...

Buying shares of Novavax $NVAX will counter the shorts.

If you want to support Novavax, consider buying shares in the company. They’re currently ~$7.

I have adored Cornel West since I read one of his books in 2008. Have heard him speak so many times since. If he ends up backing Biden, I don’t think I’ll ever trust a human being again. I don’t think he will. But 🀞

Yeah, it’s frustrating how long it’s taking. Maybe they got the Word from On Highβ€”β€œWe don’t actually want the plebs to be able to communicate with each other!” πŸ˜† (I laugh only half for real).

Wall Street regularly shorts small pharma into the ground, especially when FDA approval is elusiveβ€”EZ to do; Big $. Kills innovation.

Q: Why is the FDA dragging its feet on a vax that has demonstrated superiority over Pfizer & Moderna? Thinking about all of the insider-trading in Congress. πŸ€”

Do you mean by not yet opening it to the public?

RT only if you are NOT becoming more conservative as you grow older.

People love to hate on the Oxford comma until it's left out of a binding legal document and they realize they screwed themselves into letting a neighbor legally park his boat in their yard.
