i’ll tell you what, man, if biden manages to survive and win another term, i hope he and his aides remember that it was mostly the ancient centrists — not the progressives and not the younger dems — who came behind up him with the knives, and that he responds in kind.

"Executive Time" fell out of the coverage of Donald Trump in the most incredible way. Nobody writing about his quest to become president again ever mentions the fact that he hated the job when he had it and he couldn't and wouldn't really do it!

Google’s emissions are up 48% in 5 years. Microsoft’s are up 30% since 2020. Those soaring figures are being driven by mass investments in data centers to power AI tools. Generative AI is a climate disaster and data center expansion must be stopped.

If you haven’t called your senators and congressperson, take five minutes to ask them to support Liz Warren & AOC’s calls for impeachment of justices and expansion of the court.

Watching the British election returns I feel compelled to point out that the 650 person House of Commons represents 67 million people and the 435 person House of Representatives in the United States represents 333 million. Replace the Permanent Apportionment Act of 1929. We deserve representation.

It's pretty interesting what the media decides is front page news and what they don't decide is front page news! Trump being a child sex abuser with close connections to Jeffrey Epstein somehow doesn't merit the same coverage as "unnamed Dem insider has concerns about Biden's age"

Like remembering that before unions, a lot of folks worked 6 or 7 days a week, it's worth remembering that before environmental movements, the air and water in a lot of places were fucking gross. Left to their own devices, companies just straight-up poisoned people. They will again if we let them.

The romance of inspiration never changes as a writer - being struck by an idea on an evening walk. Rushing home, brain spinning threads faster than you can remember them. Opening the computer with relish for once, not dread, only to be met with a mandatory software update. Just like Fitzgerald.

Oh yeah, none of the people I’ve spoken to are saying they would vote anything other than Democrat, but rather that we are going to lose if Biden stays in the race, which I think is an absurd argument.

Idk maybe it’s my bubble but most people I know in the 30-40 range were like “yeah he sounded old, he’s 81, what did you expect” whereas anyone I know in the 70-80 range is in an absolute spiral over one debate performance.

It’s weird to hear it primarily from previously “vote or die” Boomers and I genuinely wonder how much of it comes from their inability to see themselves as old (yes Biden is 2 years older than the Boomer cutoff but I think the point stands - they’re having a crisis at seeing a contemporary age)

this case against biden's resignation makes sense. i do think that if biden decides to step away from reelection, he should explicitly say that he is doing this because House Republicans are too corrupt to confirm a replacement for Harris.
