Keith, as your crisis PR consultant I advise you to keep. posting. that. shit.
Btw about this from Lizza's reply: Olivia and I lived together for 4+ years (4 b'days, 4 Xmases, 4 anniversaries). That's like $1250 of jewelry per celebration. And her apartment was a writing studio. And I made an f-ton then. What was I supposed to do? Get her a lot of Gift Certificates from Kmart?

"medicinal tinctures" that were just cocaine and alcohol were also super popular. but we still (eventually) made it illegal to sell them as "medicine" bc they were *very* harmful and not actually medically effective. Empirical reality must matter more than popular perception and business interests
Saying that mass adoption of this technology isn't an argument against pointing out basic facts about it, it's just depressing. And more to the point, I think that if there's something regular people can do to mitigate the harm now it's to construct and reinforce a social taboo against this tech.

this is also why targetting porn to "protect children" but claiming children being abused by adults is no big deal. Rape of teenage girls is biblically sanctioned sexual activity, masturbation is a sin. They care about "protecting" kids from hell, but actual childhood trauma is just "god's will"
i deleted a post i wrote about the Epstien Cope bc it felt too graphic. Toned down version is: these ppl see the ultimate threat as Incorrect Sexual Thoughts, and do not care about real-world harm. Thats the "difference" between abusing a 5 yr old and a 15 yr old.

bc their real problem is not with what Democratic politicians say, but with the fact that ordinary lefties and trans people are allowed in public life at all. they see actual culture shift leaving them behind and blame Democratic politicians. its inane for any Dem to just believe them and repeat it
i think a good example of Propaganda Works is the number of you who think that the national Democratic Party spent the years 2013 to 2020 denouncing Americans for insufficient Tumblr-speak

Those claiming Dems should retreat on racial justice aren't hard-headed realists, they're pushing against the electoral tide rather than leaning into it. The story of Gen Z isn't about racist backlash or red-pilled young men. It's the most racially progressive generation in American history. 🧵

I dream of a day when corporations have to reapply for every tax break, contract, and grant every six months, with a requirement that it is the CEO who must complete the paperwork, and attest under penalty of law that they personally did so.
The shutdown was an excuse, not a reason, to go after SNAP.
SNAP recipients have to re-apply either every 6 months or year. Onerous process, with almost no fraud.
There are no shutdown-related requirement for SNAP renewal. But it would predictably result in low-income families going hungry.

not that i give a shit about the FBI, but: why even try to prevent attacks when a successful attack will be much more useful in advancing their agenda and consolidating power? They desperately want their own 9/11; at what point is weaponized incompetence indistinguishable from a false flag?
It's hard to overstate what a disaster Kash Patel is. See the many disturbing details here, from @vermontgmg.bsky.social, an expert on the FBI. "The longer this chaos continues," he writes, "the more likely we’re going to face a catastrophic intelligence failure." www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

The biggest little scandal in Washington right now is how bad Patel is at being FBI director.

its because the Right is a cult that protects its leaders, and ppl in cults dont know how to relate to or understand how people not in cults think. Why would the Left want to expose pedophiles in their own midst? All they know is unthinking personalist loyalty. Having principles is unthinkable

This was new info to me, that the alleged "rent" paid to James was repayment for utilities. source in next post.
If true then the claim of "rent" is beyond the pale. It sounds like the utilities accounts were briefly in James' name after the sale, so she paid them and her grand-neice paid her back

i would love to see a HEDIS audit on this cohort. i guarantee rates of cervical screenings, colonoscopies, diabetic eye exams, and other preventative care tracked by HEDIS all cratered, despite their wealth and education.
The authors find that the entirety of reduced spending — because HDHPs *do* reduce spending — came entirely from people seeking less care.
They weren't adept at distinguishing "high" and "low" value care; they scaled back all forms of care.
