It also makes me feel insane that the rat fuck around Biden’s age and mental capacity is being uncritically spread around by Democrats when Trump is *incredibly obviously* grotesquely mentally incapacitated, in a way that is genuinely terrifying.
It makes me feel very much unmoored from reality to see all this *buying into* the Biden Too Old ratfuck narrative, days after the Supreme Court ruled that Trump gets to be dictator for life, just weeks after Trump became a convicted felon (oh, and there’s the Epstein stuff that just came out).

How accurate is the weather forecast in your city? Niko Kommenda and I learned that NWS just began doing gridded assessments of forecast accuracy. We got the data and mapped of how many days into the future they get within 3°F of the observed high temp. www.washingtonpost.com/climate-envi...

You have to believe better things can happen to go out and make them happen. Don’t listen to the prophets of doom who want only collapse to justify their predictions of collapse.
Things are bad but all the more reason for optimism of the will and rejection of doomerism and nihilism. Only way out is through.

Weird how rare it is to see right wingers telling their audience why it’s Actually Strategic to sit out elections.

The media isn't interested in the biggest technology story of the 2020s, the rapid transition to clean energy, because 1) it will destroy a bunch of oil based wealth and is a boring, competirive low margin business 2) it makes Democrats look good for helping it and they want Republicans to win
THERE’S A QUIET NEW DEAL GOING ON The antidote to Project 2025 is happening now and will die if Trump seizes power. So let’s make some noise.

Biden's pardons yesterday are good examples of how Democrats view coalition maintenance as important and people looking to influence party stances ignore that at their peril

Re: state limits on social media/web access, I’ve been warning you that online verification is a threat to all privacy. Here’s your dead canary.
New from 404 Media: the ID verification service for TikTok, Uber, X, and many more tech companies exposed real peoples' driver licenses. As we move towards an internet forcing us to verify our identities, shows these companies will absolutely be targeted www.404media.co/id-verificat...

People are dunking on that “why isn’t Covid represented in entertainment” take and I get it. But there is something to be said on how we are contributing to a return-to-“normal” by not seeing any of the new normalcy of mask wearing or other mitigation tactics that should become standard. Idk idk.

A lot of things that Biden wants to do are things I think are good things we should do. A lot of things Trump wants to do are things I think are bad things we shouldn't do. Therefore I will be supporting Biden even though I don't agree with him on everything. This is not complicated.
Excited to introduce a project I've been working on for a long time: a thorough comparison of Biden and Trump on the issues. "The stakes, not the odds," to borrow from Jay Rosen. The initial version has 6 topics, but I'll be adding more, as well as updating with new statements/policies. Gift link:
Where Joe Biden and Donald Trump Stand on the Issueswww.nytimes.com Here’s what President Biden and former President Donald J. Trump have done and want to do on abortion, democracy, the economy, immigration, Israel and Gaza, and Social Security and Medicare.

Some reduce the 2024 campaign to a contest between two old men, but it's a choice of two slates of federal appointees who'll impact your life in a million ways. Biden has staffed executive agencies with excellent choices who are doing good work. Trump will empower an army of Stephen Millers.
Under current law, you really couldn’t do much better than Biden’s FTC and NRLB. New Deal shit.

Not getting this is part of how you get people insisting that right-wingers aren’t “real Christians”, which lets them off the hook and erases the real harm that form of Christianity has done I don’t like those people, as a Christian I have very little in common with them, but they’re Christians too

Shitty drivers think speed and red light cameras are revenue generation schemes because they think all other drivers are as shitty as they are. Most drivers do not speed down 10+ over the limit on residential streets or run red lights. It's very easy to just not do that, in fact.

i'm sorry, this is an area where i am just completely unwilling to compromise. i think speeding and reckless driving are profoundly antisocial acts that are DEMONSTRABLY PROVEN to result in TENS OF THOUSANDS OF DEATHS every year in car and pedestrian crashes. this seems bad to me.
if you don't like the idea of a traffic camera snapping a photo of your car for speeding there is a very easy solution

Published less than a year ago, when she lied under oath in court. Since then, with the DOJ watching, she, @LMPD and @LouisvilleMayorhave made a lie out of any commitment Louisville needs to make in a consent decree and to our community. Defund the Police? Man, just defund her.

Louisville, our government is considering a plan to bring back zoning for Middle Housing (duplexes, fourplexes, etc) in established neighborhoods and quite predictably the NIMBYs are big mad in the public comments. learn more and leave a comment in support
Middle Housinglouisvilleky.gov Middle Housing includes a range of house-sized choices with multiple units between single-family homes and larger apartment buildings.

Cats should always be inside. It’s cruel to let cats slaughter local wildlife.

Keep your cat inside! Give them lots of play and exercise if they’re too rowdy (they’re not persistence hunters, so a lot is like an hour). If your cat is desperate to not be inside, build a catio or harness train them! Contrary to popular belief, you can walk a cat that wants to be outside!
Yep. If you let your cat out, you’re just feeding it to coyotes and cars.

I keep seeing this BULLSHIT going around so: - they are totally harmless to humans - they're gonna eat spotted lanternflies (which is a good thing)! - Many, many species of spiders "fly". Young spiderlings throw their threads up into the air and catch a ride on the wind it's called ballooning.

RESULT: In yesterday's Dem primaries in New Mexico, progressives ousted 3 of the incumbent Dem lawmakers who had voted against a bill to mandate paid family and medical leave. The bill had failed by a single vote. (One of items I was watching: boltsmag.org/whats-on-the...)

And remember: if we want more shows that don’t focus on mysteries of Atlantis and alien 👽 conspiracy theories, we have to watch and amplify these types of docuseries. Executives will listen when we tune into shows like this on PBS. Watch!
