So @cwarzel.bsky.social highlights how unimpressive these people are, and I want to reaffirm how that’s a critical part of how these abusive systems keep functioning.
If they were impressive people, then there would be no myth that you could also be powerful and rich to draw you in too.

Four in 10 women under the age of 45 say they'd like to permanently leave the U.S. Probably not coincidentally, they have also disproportionately lost trust in American institutions, including in the Democratic Party.

Growing up in a time when “selling out” was the most shameful thing you could do and then being forced to live through the 2020s feels like being kicked in the head by a horse every day

Still processing the inanity of this cave, like, "We're going to make Republicans go on record that they want to destroy the ACA." You mean the motherfuckers who radicalized in opposition to it & voted to repeal it, like, 22 times? You're finally getting them on record? Really impressed over here
“If Schumer really wanted to use his considerable influence and leverage to stop this, he could have done that,” a senior Democratic Senate aide tells Zeteo. “He didn’t.”
Furious Liberals Call for Schumer to Step Aside, Senate Dems Mostly Quiet
After their shutdown surrender, liberal lawmakers are begging their base to unite behind them anyway – as Trumpland celebrates that their opposition is a bunch of 'p*ssies.'

He says they aren’t seeking a government bailout but instead recommend governments invest in chip fabs and datacenters for the people.
He also says they’ll make $20B this year and can afford to spend $1.4T over 8 years

This is what "not the odds, but the stakes" was all about.
During the 2024 campaign, those 12 markers could have been in place and operating to guide news coverage everywhere.

I am obsessed with this new Lily Allen record. It’s just a stunning piece of art. I love all the subtle tempo changes and little bits of melody warping when the dream starts to go wrong. I love the storytelling.
I hope some of you are obsessed with it too.

Valve isn't nice or your friend, its just that no one has a gun to their head demanding they meet some made up growth goal every year or else. So they just do what works and makes money with as little risk as possible. Like a normal fucking business.
