I am not going to moralise to anyone else what the principles under which they vote should be but I will say that I simply do not agree with the general thesis that voting for a party always means a wholesale endorsement of /every single plank of their platform/

These are the directors of Project 2025. Look at these pasty, pathetic, autographed-Bret-Easton-Ellis-first-edition, drunk-on-daddy’s-calvados little megachurch dillholes. TROUP? Stop it. Get the fuck out of here immediately.

I'm incredibly bullish on America's future. I get it's a bit hard to see these days--the death throes of unpopular authoritarianism is pretty scary and there are real problems in the immediate term--but I definitely think America's best days are still very much ahead.

the media, led by the Times, has done to Biden what they did to Claudine Gay at Harvard there is no way to convince the public, because the people who he needs to convince to do that (the media) are never going to tell the public that he’s fine I think dropping out is a when, not if at this point

it feels like the whiteness of big political media spaces right now is having a big effect on how people are thinking about the debate. eg I have seen relatively little discussion of trump's "black jobs" comment, which immediately exploded on black twitter

The NYT editorial board presents itself as like a wise adjunct group of strategists advising Democrats how to run their shop, but (a) it’s run and largely staffed by de facto Republican operatives and (b) it has no similar paternalistic scrutiny for Republicans.

And I say that because if Biden does better and Trump is still Trump, you’re going to have to write about Trump’s condition and then there’s the follow up question of “well why did you not mention that for the last four years?”

Do you think we would still be having this conversation if Biden didn’t have a cold and only flubbed, say, one answer? I think we would, I think this was kind of inevitable.

If you take anything away from Bluesky tonight, don't take away anger. Take away this idea: Tell someone how important they are to you. Do it tonight. Send a text, make a phone call, say it in person. Remind someone that they are valuable to you and that they bring you joy just through existing.
