You can tell that the Biden campaign hitting on Project 2025 is making Trump & the GOP sweat bc of how loudly they are starting to insist that no one needs to look behind the curtain on it

“Trump's Project 2025 wants to take money out of your wallet and give it to your boss” is like verbatim what we should be putting on billboards for undecided voters in swing states

There is no process for replacing or keeping Biden that delivers a certain outcome in November and you are all adults who should know that by now

I keep repeating this but only because it's true - whatever Biden's condition, he is observably less neurologically compromised than either opponent or virtually anyone covering the election.

Casting a single vote for the better major candidate has a large positive net expected value for society, and you can very often tell who's a better candidate (especially this year!). Voting is humble, unselfish, and rational—a little chore that you should do. www.liberalcurrents.com/elections-ar...

It is fully okay to vote for the NLRB board being able to protect unions and the FTC to keep all our grocery stores from being owned by the same entity. You don’t have to like the goddamn candidate.

I keep repeating this but only because it's true - whatever Biden's condition may be, he's visibly less addled than either opponent or anyone covering the election.

I see we've reached the "famous artist credibly accused of sexual assault wasn't actually a great artist and you're a chump for liking him" phase. Consider that pretending terrible people can't make great art helps terrible people who make great art whedon their way into vulnerable communities.

Google “Massachusetts crisis pregnancy” and this link pops up. It’s part of a statewide campaign, including public signage (highway billboards!), urging people to avoid crisis pregnancy/anti-abortion centers. The Commonwealth is not fucking around with this.

For a definition of "refined" that is "largely filled with people imitating and expanding on the style Meltzer has championed for 40+ years," this is true. If every fuckin' movie that came out was trying to be John Wick or The Princess Bride Except Moreso, my movie reviews would be more positive!

I watched WATERWORLD for the first time last year and it's fine. Like if it had cost 1/3 as much, and been starring JCVD in Cyborg 3: Underwater Cyborg or Bruce Campbell in Navy of Darkness, it'd be a beloved cult favorite. But superexpensive tentpole blockbuster was, ah... ill advised.

Also: Get off your arse and vote. My constituency was won for Labour by 15 votes. A high turnout from the French sorted this. You don't vote? Well, the fash do. If you're replying to this with why it's ideologically impure for a truly left wing person to vote, please just block yourself, I'm tired.

The opting out is especially wild Like, Republican governors are being actively presented with money to feed kids and affirmatively saying 'I would like children to starve actually' (Also, if I'm a Dem campaigner, I'm making some ads and placing some op eds about this immediately)

bad luck for biden to run in an electoral cycle where "are you old" is the most important issue instead of in one of the cycles where email security procedures or accuracy of vietnam war medal citations was the most important issue in the country.

If for any reason Joe Biden can't complete a 2nd term, we know who will take over. Her name is Kamala Harris and America already voted for her once. If Donald Trump can't complete a 2nd term, we have no idea who will take over because he TRIED TO HAVE HIS LAST VP MURDERED.

If Biden said something like this it would spell the end of not only his campaign but his current tenure. It's just one of countless examples of insane gibberish from Trump that the press & Democrats are choosing to treat as an immutable part of the electoral landscape rather than a story or issue.

Listen, if the Biden campaign wanted to quell concerns about his age, they would have put him out there, like in the post-debate pressroom, a rally, an event at the Stonewall monument, a national address, a medal of honor ceremony, a meeting with governors, another rally, and televised interview.
