As things stand it’s not controversial to say Trump is in the lead but people should really try to remember that every Democratic operative has generalized anxiety disorder and every Republican operative is on coke

Gonna keep banging this drum- it was always on the cards after he came out as the most pro labour president of the 21st century, and probably my lifetime. Of course the corporate shill wing of the party want him gone and of course the leftmost part of it recognise how good he's been for their causes

This deserves a quoteskeet because this will not be business as usual: this will be worse. In the event Biden drops out and Harris becomes the nominee, the republicans will launch a coordinated campaign of misogynist racism (misogynoir) against Harris, the likes of which we have never seen.

I think there's a difference between an organized campaign of racist attacks on a candidate, which is absolutely what will happen with Harris, and "bad faith" attacks on a candidate which is what is happening with Biden, but sure.

also letter grades in grad school are particularly stupid. I'm not super excited about them at an undergrad level either.

My only trips to Paris have been in the November-March part of the calendar. I have no desire to be there in the summer.

we are very fortunate in that we've been there more than once, and I agree it's amazing. I have also never slept so well in August since I moved to the SE US!

for our 30th anniversary a couple of years ago Indy briefly suggested we go to Paris. Our anniversary is in August! I vetoed that immediately. We went to Iceland.

ooof my condolences. We are at least getting down to the low-mid 70s at night. Which isn't ideal but is better than 80s for sure.

apologies on behalf of my discipline. I do like to think it's partly inspired by constantly being negged about our "low N" studies by quant-heavy disciplines... :)

So I guess I get to never listen to that podcast series ever again, which frees me up to listen to more critical and informed voices (like for instance Sarah Marshall), so yay me.

at that "expert" but also at the podcast host for just letting that stand and not caring enough about the history of the US not caring about marginalized (in terms of gender, race, and economic status) people to know enough to push back against what the "expert" was saying.

Podcast ep about the decline in serial killers and the expert guest talked seriously about things like the IQ of killers and also the "opportunities" in the 70s created by "hitchhiking and prostitution" but never about cops not caring enough about victims to do their jobs so I am upset not just
