Joe Biden refusing to take advice from people who have been wrong about everything for decades could be seen as an indication his brain is still working

Breaking News: President Biden insisted he was staying in the race in a forceful speech at a campaign event in Wisconsin, calling Donald Trump a liar and a threat to democracy. “I’m not letting one 90-minute debate wipe out three-and-a-half years of work.”

Grateful for all that you and the wonderful collective gave to the world in your time there (especially in light of the obstacles). Also excited for this next chapter.

Part of the challenge is that the postal reorganization act restructured the postal service to run like a corporation, and so they need to make money. One of the big ways they make that money is by partnering with marketers to send us junk.

This website is helpful for unsubscribing from a bunch of junk mail. Ironically, you have to pay to *not* get that mail, but the cost has been worth it in my experience.

I have no idea the best path re Biden but I do know a solid week straight of “Biden Old” and “Rich Dems Worried” above-the-fold stories are *obscene* in the face of SCOTUS using the Constitution to wipe their asses purely in the service of reinstating a felon rapist as president. Crazy-making shit.

It is actually not great when wealthy elites try to have this much influence on the nominee, whether or not you think Biden is fit to serve.

I’m sorry, I don’t mean to offend, but I really deeply dislike Mastodon’s vibe. It’s like being trapped at a party with two other people: one who demands you debate them on whether Dick York or Dick Sargent was the better Darrin, and one who becomes irate that you said the word “Dick.”

honestly hate that every time there's an industry bad actor, lists of "works by marginalized authors to support instead" start circulating like it's a moral obligation to be done out of guilt, & it's crickets every other day of the year. my art is not to be taken in as a reactionary measure

To share one example, there was a piece in which I used the phrase "the murder of George Floyd" and fact-checkers changed "murder" to "killing" because at the time the jury had not yet officially ruled it as murder. But "I don't vote guy" (who actually votes) can say whatever.

Totally agree! And same experience with opinion sections. Just noting that they have a lot of variability in that section. Some fact-checked rigorously; others, just vibes.

As someone who writes a fair amount of public facing articles that are always rigorously fact-checked prior to publication (something I greatly appreciate), I'm always amazed to see how many articles get through the publication process with seemingly no fact-checking at all.

Relevant to that NYT piece that's going around...if your vote didn't still matter, they wouldn't be trying everything to convince you it was worthless.
