You're right of course, except as to any implication that they may feel a sense of shame. Shame would really spoil the mood at their next Vineyard cocktail party.

I’m not a Democrat. It’s not that Democrats are too liberal. It’s that they’re largely fucking useless.

Hey remember when Utah launched a carelessly thrown together form to report trans people in public spaces?
New snitch line is up, but requires a Utah IP address to submit. Would be a real shame if a bunch of people used VPNs to fill it with useless data again.

The ice cream place that also has diner type food, might be more of a Northeast USA thing? They are slowly dying out even around here. Very few Friendly's left. Jahn's used to be a major regional chain, but has gone extinct except for one location in Queens?

One way to see the Hochul climb-down in congestion pricing is that it is another instance where blue state politicians create a vetocracy that stops them from taking actions that would improve the quality of lives for citizens.

We've gone from "congestion pricing will screw businesses and is just another tax on New Yorkers" to "Why don't we just tax businesses and screw New Yorkers instead?" It gives the game away: the controversy around congestion pricing has only ever been about opposition from suburban drivers.

From the sound of things it was basically Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer who pushed Hochul into backing down, not that she didn't hear from other people, of course. You can call their offices to let them know what you think. Jeffries: (718) 237-2211 Schumer: (212) 486-4430

Call and email every elected official you have if you live in NY. I have managed to talk to a human being at every office except Schumer’s. Hakeem Jeffries’ office was very receptive to my concerns.

The real gravy on the sundae is the message that our traffic has to stay fucked up forever because Democratic bigwigs are worried about losing congressional races in the New York suburbs, like, the same people who didn't bother to do oppo on George Santos

But some questions aren't nuanced. Cause of civil war is not nuanced. Any other justification you can make such as agrarian vs. industrial economy really just boils down to slavery.

Isn't this bad political communications? Even if he was ahead in the poll by 5, a politician wants his supporters to see it as neck and neck so they have urgency to donate or volunteer. All the Dem emails I get say the sky is falling even if they are ahead!

Reminder: DeWine has a contact form and needs very much to hear from you. Cis people especially, do this now— this is a thing you can do. Sit down, bang out a letter of disgust and unequivocal condemnation, send it, then save to submit as testimony. We need every voice.
