Nationalized soft rent control is pretty baller actually
unlocked "Biden will unveil a new plan in NV today to cap rental prices nationally, calling on Congress to pass a bill to give landlords the option to cap rent increases in existing units at 5% or risk losing fed tax breaks, while also repurposing fed land in NV to build affordable housing units."
Biden to unveil plan to cap rents as GOP convention beginswapo.st The policy plan comes as the president tries to assure Democrats about the viability of his candidacy.

Demanding that Bernie Sanders and Rashida Tlaib quit their jobs because the US Congress is an abjectly evil organization and what actually matters in politics is maintaining personal purity against guilt by association rather than wielding power and influence to achieve goals

National conservatism is for when national socialism is too left-wing
Sen. Josh @HawleyMO: "Some will say now that I am calling America a Christian Nation. So I am. And some will say that I am advocating Christian Nationalism. And so I do." Christian nationalism is fascism and Nazism as politics-and hawley is a proud fascist.

Sorry to all my lawyer friends who spent a bunch of time learning how law works in the US. I had friends who were Flash developers and things turned out alright for them after they pivoted to C# or whatever. Hopefully there's an equivalent for our national legal system

The IRA is one of the most important pieces of legislation in American history and it's worth reelecting Biden for that alone
The fact that Biden has delivered on left-wing policy far better than any president in generations but is widely despised by left-wing voters reflects more poorly on left-wing institutions and voters than on Biden. This is not a movement showing political maturity, and I say that as a left-winger

Reminder that Aaron Swartz was facing 35 years in prison and financial devastation for trying to programmatically download and open the contents of JSTOR, which led to him taking his own life. But OpenAI is going to scrape all of academia and make billions by plagiarizing it.
New version of chatbot reaches level of function where it responds to all queries by making a little twisty-wrist gesture with pinched fingers and saying “But isn’t it more *complicated* than that?”

feel a little bad for the coca-cola company. they renamed "mr pibb" to "pibb xtra" over two decades ago but people still call it mr pibb anyway. imagine your rebranding being so unsuccessful but still sticking to your guns for 23 years anyway

Broke: freeway median urban rail stations are bad because of catchment area restrictions, rider experience degradation, etc Woke: freeway median urban rail stations are good because they make it harder to add more lanes to the freeway
