I’ve moved off and while it is sometimes a minor additional burden, I am doing way way less impulsive purchases for crap I don’t really need. I’m sure it has saved me money not being a prime member.

We should still hold dem leaders primarily responsible but the deep strategy of how best to deploy your vote is mostly something you don’t need to even engage with. That part is obvious. We don’t necessarily need unity but we should demonstrate we understand the assignment.

“We’ll do it live!” has become his aspirational slogan.

The prospect of additional design to the timeline is addressed and should end up being a benefit to adopting an automated system. What negative consequences should be expected for future projects?

Recently realized the Tom Morello guitar solo from Sleep Now in the Fire - the one using feedback and a kill switch to sound like a raygun - was ripped off by those “What does the Fox say?” guys.

Man, the Admiral, clean living. Sounds terrible but you can’t argue with results.

Anyone know how this plays in the locker room with Deni Avdija?

The Blazers play in a frenzy in the non-Wemby minutes. It is like they are on power-play and desperate to capitalize.

Michael Phelps might seem impressive but how many gold medals would he have if he competed against a dolphin?

I hear so much about court expansion. Impeachment of at least a couple that extremely deserve it would serve us better.

“Major highway routes” is doing a ton of lifting in this argument. We got a lot more places that are not immediately off major highway routes.

We’ve allowed this in so many small ways. Supplements, crystals, chiropractors, Chinese medicine, astrology… if it doesn’t hurt people who cares?

I eased up on a lot of nonsense. My skepticism was tied to my youthful militant atheism but I shouldn’t have let all those things go with it.

My scheme to bridge the rural and urban divide among voters is to direct my ire toward cities. It is the responsibility of cities to be a magnet for growth that absorbs all demand. City people and problems spilling out to other areas in the region is a failure of cities to serve their function.

NPR is so liberal coded they have disproportionate power to set the bounds of acceptable dispute. Better if they were fully destroyed and we got a martyr we could project whatever we want on to.

This is the most infuriating thing to me. Language like this exists for scholars or activists who need either a shorthand or a term that doesn’t reinforce an unexceptionable status quo. It is intended for a small audience. You catching someone using it is actually nothing.

getting degrees and golding, I believe.

Save some cash and grab some dudes from the local YMCA.

I’m curious to know what the criticisms of this plan might be. This ST3 proposal seems thorough and convincing.

Unless there are major flaws or omissions, not adopting this proposal given the alternatives would be a major indictment on the performative planning process Seattle can’t quit.

The motherfucker was scared of any positive association to Mamdani who is clearly a superstar in progressive politics anyone would be lucky to hitch their wagon to.

very first time I’ve encountered it.

This is the stupidest thing. the only reason progressive people are associated with new terminology at all is because they are the only ones doing the work and scholarship where this sort of precision or shorthand are needed.

I’m no biologist but I think the fight or flight response is more personal. Just because flights are part of it it would be odd to buy plane tickets for the family reunion coming up in the summer while being shot at, same as organizing supporters to symbolicly fight.

Everyone having to keep their mouths shut is always the weakest link and that more than holds true in this case.

We’re indulging a bit but it isn’t like there isn’t plenty to fuel it.

How many do you need in on this? The shooter, 6-10 secret service agents, and 5-10 inner circle? Lot to ask…

That should keep the lunch line moving.

This assumes what we saw was carried out with precision. With Trump you must always start from the first principles, the question “What the fuck was that?” has more potential answers than just botched assignation attempt or expertly faked assassination attempt.

Trump is just too powerful, 5 secret service members trained precisely for such a moment were unable to keep him down.

A raised fist “FIGHT!” is a totally natural reaction to getting shot at.

Nickname is a little redundant. You’re never gonna find a small Gene.

That dull silverish well-formed slice of something? That is L.O.A.F.
