Because, again: Disability is the only minority anyone can join at any time, & which everyone will join, if they're lucky enough to live that long. A disease, a quirk of genetics, a bus, a bad fall from a curb. Anything. And the only thing we have that could consistently make this fact survivable…

Rural people figure out they are being played by rich folks who always sent their kids to private school. Liberals were right all along.

Trump, who literally and obviously tried to steal an election ( aka the end of democracy ), is somehow more trusted to defend democracy? The problem with polls is that they ask people and people are stupid. The problem with papers is that they report on polls instead of THREATS TO DEMOCRACY

if that was a road, you're 100% correct. However, it is an Off-road Vehicle area - Azusa Canyon - where people with real 4x4s not made by Elmo have no problems crossing that stream. www.youtube.com/watch?v=HlFt...

There's this widespread misconception among the public that the housing shortage is caused by like, a shortage of building materials, I think because the actual explanation that the thing is short supply is "permission to erect a building" is too stupid-sounding to feel like it could the real reason

The misconception is that containers are super cheap construction by recycling. The reality is that they are not really that suitable for conversion, and not that cheap. Apartments are indeed a much better solution for cities. Even off-gridders have better solutions than using containers.

Never forget that Republicans could have, after 1/6/2021, made Trump go away as a candidate forever by voting to convict in his impeachment. Instead what McConnell said they wanted was for the criminal legal system to deal with it, which is how we get to where we are today

Why are you against genocide? What has genocide ever done to you? Is it fair to treat Palestinians as people? Americans genocided the Native Peoples - shouldn't Israel have that right also?

Jesus Christ! I remember chatting with an Israel apologist who said that he'd consider thinking about maybe calling it genocide if things like this started to be reported. I'd be interested to learn where the goalposts have moved at this point, but I never will, because I blocked him.

We were very fortunate to both have college degrees and no student loan debt thanks to parents (genetic lottery!). We had a lot of lean years with staycations instead of vacations, but we were never hungry. My brilliant wife was able to "catch up" due to her amazing talent, hard work, and luck.

This has been the case for decades. In 1994 my wife and I estimated she would have to make close to $50k (now 105k) to have the subtractions of childcare and commuting, etc leave more than minimum wage. We had 3 kids and she stayed home for 14 years before re-entering the workforce (successful!)

Oddly, the centrist press' both sides-ism often results in black conservatives getting vastly more exposure than black progressives. Funny that. I'd add there's a third instinct here: to launder and boost conservative views through blacks. It's a longstanding problem in journalism. From 1992:
