Used to work in tech and think about business. Now I have a blog and am writing a novel. I try not to be a jerk. Member #WFWA, Princeton alumna, happily married. If you repost my good faith comments only to incite a dogpile, I will block you immediately

Not sending their best to cover politics, eh? He said the quiet part out loud though: if it bleeds, it leads. It's so much more "exciting" for the political press to keep moving the goal post for Biden, as opposed to covering TFG's authoritarian fascism.

There’s so much of this shit with people in Trumps orbit. Stephen Miller once ran in the middle of a girls track meet to go “I am a man, I am better at sports”. No point to any of it except to be an awful human being.

I know that on a geopolitical scale one might say that America deserves the harm Trump will do us. But on a human scale, the domestic death toll will increase among the marginalized, from Black women giving birth, from Black men everywhere, from trans kids, from victims of domestic violence.

This is amazing. All my fellow Princeton types will go crazy if I share this in our Class of 1978 group;)

I have wanted to reclaim our flag ever since 9/11. The language of America, the dream, no matter why it was written or by whom, or how badly we've struggled to make it true or break it, matters. We can't give up.

Or perhaps his administration has accomplished all this. Either way.

To descend to the level of a American presidential election: she's got presidential hair but I profoundly hope she gets a coach to take her voice out of her nasal passages. We vote on emotion.

If you care about the USA, the single best thing you can do today is to contribute to a downticket race thats close. The second best thing you can do is cancel your NYT subscription and use that money for the purpose.

A poundcake I made in 2016 for a July 4th party. I made a lavender glaze to stick the all edible flowers on it. New Yorkers: you can find the flowers at a vendor at Union Square green market on Saturdays.

After the initial shock, the far left came to their senses and began to blame everything on the Democratic Party once again (unclear who they mean, exactly) and then they lived happily ever after

Always the blame on the Democratic Party. I fail to understand how this is more than about 15% their fault. Isn't my fault? I voted for Biden. Isn't it the fault of Trump's voters?

As could the I Hate Trump But Give A Reason He's Even Worse Than I Knew crowd. I say that tape gets released right before the election, right? The NYT won't cover it, as they will be writing the 6234th piece on how old Biden is

I firmly believe it is ALWAYS worth flooding the zone with reminders of how Trump is a convicted felon pedophile rapist who pees on people. That is how the GOP plays the game. We should too.

100% real. In the past, even white people who were citizens by birthright have been stripped of U.S. citizenship. It can happen here.

It really doesn't matter what people think Biden should do. It only matters if they will vote for him, since predicting their actions is the only relevant expertise they have.
