I think this is the fundamental asymmetry underlying every aspect of the conflict between the parties; you see it in the Senate, in gerrymandering, in the use of executive power I don't want King Biden either, but it's long past time to make the GOP afraid of the consequences of endless escalation

It is enormously frustrating to know, as an evolutionary biologist with experience from the trenches of the creationist wars on science, that nobody on Biden’s team nor CNN’s seem to be aware of the Gish Gallop, 30y after Eugenie Scott described it and years of Trump deploying it!

Being close to but not quite something your body needs can be WHY something is toxic. Some of the toxicity of lead is because it chemically mimics calcium, I think.

And Dabls FOUND OUT THE PLANNED DEMOLITION FROM A REPORTER. He had talked to the City earlier in the day and they didn’t tell him.

I'm not saying the Democratic Party is without a pro-Israel wing that could inflict a lot of pain on Biden, but there's also very clearly a significant pro-Palestine wing that could back him on this and instead of trying to draw on it he's just laying down and taking his paddling wtf?

there are a lot of ways for the state to suppress dissident speech. one particularly bad one is by having armed agents of the state stand by and do nothing while partisan-aligned thugs or paramilitary groups beat you because of your speech, and then have the DA decline to prosecute the assaulters.

Imagine the deep moral vacuity you'd have to have to use the phrase "shouldn't have" here. Like it was somehow WRONG or IMMORAL for creative people to get paid for their work. Work that OpenAI has pirated to fuel their immoral, unethical machine. Deeply, deeply repugnant worldview.

People are pointing out that the math makes no sense. That’s not the point. Hochul is weaponizing suburban disdain for low income, Black and brown New Yorkers to serve her political career. This is “welfare queen” style politics. That’s why she put more cops on the subways.
