I am not kidding when I say that Romancing the Vote has out-organized and done more to materially improve conditions in the southeastern US than any explicitly leftist org. Romancelandia ain't here to fuck around.

cars are very great for people with mobility issues and people carrying really heavy/unwieldy stuff and really bad for society if anybody but those two groups needs to use them regularly glad you’re in a walking place (but not that you’re in a walking place *right now*)

“cop” on her biography might not help much but i think a prosecutor’s instincts might go a long way against this particular opponent personally i don’t want biden replaced but they should put her out front to make the campaign’s case

I do know that if there's any ambiguity at all from a legal standpoint it'll end up in front of SCOTUS. Which, you know. Ask Al Gore how that goes.

i’d like to see publicly funded campaigns for anybody who could gather enough signatures before the primary season. basically reward ground game with access to the ballot, and limit candidates to identical budgets as it is a one day primary would be a coronation for whoever got the big donors’ ears

if they were all held the same day or week, that “small campaigns can make a name for themselves by campaigning really well in early contests” effect would go away, though

Came for the Flehmen response, stayed for Mike Dunford asking for an email from Spider. I think this one may not go down quite the way that extractive leech of an IP lawyer hopes.

To begin with, every supposed "centrist" who's yammering for this at the NYT and everywhere else will immediately sandbag any D who might succeed Biden while leaving Trump alone and unscathed.

seems to me that you’d want to facilitate a very well-rested, well-exercised, well-fed president at all times because most of the time there are highly competent staff to do what’s needed & if you hit a crisis that needs long hours, you wouldn’t want the president to be starting from a deficit

The discourse around biden needing more sleep is fully insane. Does no one remember "Executive Time," the thing Trump spent the majority(!) of his schedule on where he would just watch TV and tweet? Dude was categorically unable to fulfill any of the demands of the office and the press barely cared

excommunicating the fuckers who won’t respect your duly elected authority because you want to use it on behalf of people they hate, and who have forfeited their right to power because they’re using it to undermine progress, is the energy I wish Democrats would take into the White House JUST ONCE

i started another recurring donation (had just been ARC but now i figure the fund in colorado is a good choice since we border a bunch of conservative states) highly recommend the set-and-forget donation method, even if it’s not a lot ($5 a month adds up!)

The fact they're simultaneously running don't vote campaigns and trying to undermine the dem candidate is proof that the moneybags who own these publications are united in realizing their robber baron days are drawing to a close under a guy who is the most pro labour president of the 21st century

i get the thinking, that contests in teeny states give less well-funded candidates a way to build momentum and name recognition but ffs why not start in some smallish state with a more multiracial profile at least?

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.
