On the list of weird things I have to deal with now, I didn’t have “accidentally stumbling into online discourse related to my ex”… but I guess that’s just gonna be how it is.

“They want to eliminate national parks” is a very simple way to get just about anyone on the Stop Project 2025 train. Are there much more glaring and life-threatening goals of P25? Yes but even your most bigoted cousin does not want to see the parks system sold for parts.

This will be one about hope, though maybe not "hope" as it is usually meant.

Hope is a defiant act taken against those who would sabotage any act of reparation—and sabotaging repair is exactly what fascism does.

For this reason, hope is what is needed right now.

There was no GOP party platform in 2020, and Trump wants to shrink the proposed 2024 one. He opposes providing detail on how radical his second term will be because he knows its unpopular. Make no mistake: Project 2025 was written by Trump appointees & loyalists. Its their shared agenda.

When an article says "some scientists think" then remember this: I, a scientist, once thought I could fit a whole orange in my mouth. I could, it turns out, get it in there, but I hadn't given sufficient thought to the reverse operation.

Hear, hear: “In fact, the debate about the debate is misplaced. The only person who should withdraw from the race is Trump. Trump, 78, has been on the political stage for eight years marked by chaos, corruption, and incivility. Why go back to that?”

Ok just to be clear obviously if the current polling holds Trump has a good shot at winning outright, but re: his debate bullshit tonight about “accepting” or not if he loses in Nov., that’s not a game he’s playing! This is the only game Trump is playing: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Trump's debate performance was awful because he lied constantly. Biden's debate performance was awful because he seemed tired and stumbled a lot. A problem Biden has is that a large portion of the public and media has showed they care more about presentation than facts.

As a person who stutters, I wish Biden could do the same thing that was told to me — slow down, take a breath, and get centered.
