I would chalk a lot of this up to messaging. The DNC does a terrible job pushing out stories in their wins. If you deeply follow, you know things. If you're more casual or GOP then you've never heard of any accomplishments.
I’m tired. I’m tired of posting about this day in and day out and having people who have a lot less than a lot larger audience than me saying the same damn thing. Maybe our Dems aren’t doing everything humanly possible but they are doing a hell of a lot more than you’re giving them credit for.

I realize that the Fast and Furious movies are not grounded in reality. But they're still fun to watch.

Bonjour, Frenchsky! I'm trying to learn French and would like to supplement my classwork with immersion. French pop study music is great, but what are some movies or series on Netflix that you would recommend? Either cultural icons or just some good sci-fi/fantasy? #fr #francais

The problem with trying to learn Kiswahili in Kenya is... they don't speak Kiswahili. They sprinkle it with English, Sheng, and their mother tongue. I ask my friends, "How do you say...?" and they just stare at me, pull out their phones, and search the net in a panic.

Interesting. I'm curious to see how the professor looks at causality vs correlation, and also what the skew is on the populations of left-leaning social scientists vs right-leaning in each of these disciplines. *goes off to library*
"while this study focuses on sociology, [...] economics, political science, and psychology are also skewed to the political left—albeit less extremely—and they too face the epistemic vulnerabilities that arise in ideologically homogenous environments"

So the guy that ran on ending wars and cutting out fraud, waste, and abuse from the government now wants to rename the DoD to the Department of WAR. A focus on War and a lot of unnecessary spending to reprint documents and signs. Got it.
