Feels like ranked choice was absolutely decisive in this race—not because of the vote count, but because of how it changed the incentives from zero-sum to cooperapetitive. It allowed a fractured left field to align organically through co-endorsements instead of falling into a circular firing squad.

Just finished going through @donwill.bsky.social's newsletter for the week, and had to note that I wore "Aight, New Drink" out back in the day. From back before I actually used the Bandcamp mobile app and had to pull everything onto my phone manually.
