Washington Post Editorial Board headline: “The Texas gerrymander freak out. What’s happening in Texas is not a threat to democracy.”
Washington Post Editorial Board headline: “Virginia plunges America deeper into the gerrymandering abyss. The redistricting scheme was always a power grab by Democrats. Voters went along with it.”
The Washington Post Editorial Board was fine with Republicans gerrymandering in Texas.
But when Democrats responded in Virginia, it’s a “power grab” that “plunges America deeper into the gerrymandering abyss.”

So much false equivalence in media on gerrymandering in Texas vs California & Virginia. California and Virginia maps approved by the voters. That's a huge difference not enough people pointing out

Starting a mid-decade redistricting war only to end up with -1 seats is the same fine strategic genius and subtle grasp of game theory that brough us the Strait of Hormuz.

“This is a big intersection; somebody can get killed”. Yes. It IS a big intersection— which is why traffic calming, pedestrian-friendly physical infrastructure would stop these car meetups before they start. Bollards, bulb-outs, raised crosswalks, etc. Get them installed.

Government Workers Say They're Getting Inundated With Religion
“This has never happened before,” one government employee tells WIRED. “I have never gotten a message like this from anyone.”
“They always spend a lot of time carrying on like, ‘No one's forcing you to pray, these are voluntary,’” says one Department of Labor employee. “But it's happening in the middle of a government workplace.”

After decades of working in the tech industry, I'm convinced that the jobs most easily replaced by AI are the typical senior executive roles occupied typically by mediocre white men.
