Here's a simple script you can use if you need one: "I'm calling to tell the representative that I support Alexandria Ocasio Cortez's articles of impeachment against Justices Thomas and Alito, and I am encouraging him to support them as well." That's all you need!

Right now is the first time since February of 1979 that there hasn't been a show by either Lloyd Webber or Sondheim on Broadway.

If you think "working class" is white male auto workers who live in the suburbs, and not multiracial Starbucks baristas, Amazon warehouse workers, and Wal-Mart greeters of all genders, you are perpetuating a revanchist racist myth, the reality of which died with Reagan.

Switching from Biden to Harris at this point would be reckless. Staying with Biden is also reckless. Criticizing others for supporting reckless options isn't very convincing when all options are reckless.

The press using the white house visitor logs to write up (apparently false) attacks on Biden after Biden published visitor logs and Trump didn't: good illustration of the reward for upstanding and ethical behavior in the current media environment.

So if Trump loses the 2024 election - which is not a certainty, but it's more possible than many think - I wonder if he'll be the GOP candidate in 2028?

A widely predicted victory for the far right in France has instead turned into a victory for the left *because people turned out in record numbers to vote.* Defeat is not inevitable and more progressive elected officials means more progressive policies.

And the story slips seamlessly from being about one kid's reaction to seeming to be about kids today in general. With a catastrophizing tone of hopelessness. I mean, it's just a story, I don't mean to make it a big deal. But I also don't think things, or kids, are as bad as this story painted them.

I believe that! But... good googling is actually a bit subtle. It requires many judgement calls. The teacher account I quoted didn't even mention TRYING to explain "that site tells lies, other sites are better." Or trying to demonstrate that another search would produce a different answer.

I’m skeptical about this story. “Some sites are more truthful and some sites lie and this site is one of the lying ones” is not beyond kids’ comprehension. Also, old people always say the kids are idiots, and are always wrong.
