Banking bro turned developer (Next.js/SQL/TailwindCSS). Humanist, more or less. Ardent anti-imperialist, pro-intl liberal democracy.
Despite being raised southern Baptist and having the heritage on my father’s side, I’ve been told to my face that I’m a “different kind of white.”
I’m seeing enough of this in my mentions today that I, a Black Jew, need to remind everyone that in the 1930s, European Jews were not considered white and that’s why the Nazis slaughtered them and part of why other countries including the United States refused refuge to many of them

We all know it was Boris Johnson, right?
One horrific game you should definitely not play is ranking them in order of likelihood. Because once you've crossed off Brown and May, the mental images start getting really bad

Further evidence that immigration is a net gain for society.
The US immigrant population generated more in taxes than they received in benefits from all levels of government every year from 1994 to 2023.

The Cato study provides the first-ever 30-year analysis of the fiscal effects of immigration on government budgets.

My advice to the Democratic Party - kill the lib, and let the Liberal be born.

Oof.

Yeah, gonna be hard to cancel midterms when this is the backlash already. And November is gonna be blue.
Even Texas had had enough. A Democrat whopped a republican in a run off.

Tarrant County is the largest red county in the nation. I cannot emphasize enough how big this is. Rehmet winning this race against Wambsganss would be an earthquake of Biblical proportions.

America is a nation of immigrants and if you try to “well ackshually” that with some intellectual tripe about colonialism, no one will listen to you because you’re a dork. No normal American will listen to you.

And you’re harming immigrants, so fuck off.

Yes, no successful nation state or empire has allowed immigrants, other than all of them.

Those of us in semi-red states that can go blue have a massive obligation to vote this November. Our votes are likely to count.

“Both sides are evil”

Leftists 🤝 centrists and center-right
If all the fascists took over one political party Americans would reject them. Instead the fascists split into two groups and took over two political parties. Half of the voters support each party while opposing the other.

People keep saying "Getting arrested is bad, actually" and while I'd certainly prefer not to be, the administration's entire strategy is built around the idea that I will live in fear of it, and shape my behavior to avoid it, and cry in shame if I am. That is how THEY CONTROL YOU.

I’ve disagreed with Stancil on economic issues and found him annoying, but you gotta respect this. Man puts his money where his mouth is and it’s admirable.

He’s done more than me, I know that much.
They literally threatened to arrest me yesterday and literally backed down instantly.

Hot take - democracy requires sacrifice and sometimes that sacrifice is personal. We don’t all get to be heroes in the end, sorry to say.

You might have to give up your security and identity to fight this stuff, maybe more. That’s what’s required.
The whole fucking point is to accept personal risk as yourself and dare the state to do anything about it.

You are there to be seen, known, and heard. Not to cosplay as an antifa super soldier.
If you've given biometrics to TSA (Pre-Check and Global Entry members) and you plan to attend a protest, you should wear a medical mask.

I’ve spent 4 days on a button that was “vibe coded,” because systems are complex.
Every executive right now:

"WOW look at this demo I vibe coded in just an hour! Can you engineers do the boring work of turning this into something real? Also, I think it's not long before your jobs will disappear. Thanks!"

I wouldn’t allow another human to do this, so why would I let something less-than-human do it?

If they were being funded, there’d be evidence and it would be”new wood” and “leather placards.”

The stupidity to believe this…
Trump on Mpls: "Do these people really want to have rapists and drug dealers and people from prisons and murderers, do they really want to have them in the community? It's really insurrectionists and agitators and they're paid ... everybody has a beautiful sign with brand new wood. Leather panels."

The church protest and Trump’s response has so many echos to the Pussy Riot church protest in Russia.

The Alberta situation is gonna spiral out of control, isn’t it?
Bessent: "I'd encourage Carney to do what he thinks is best for Canadians, not his own virtue signaling. We do have a USMCA negotiation coming up. He rose to power on an anti-American, anti-Trump message. That's not a great place to be when you're negotiating w/ an economy multiples larger than you"

“I don’t believe in phrenology, but I do use it.”
In response to announcement that he will be a new CBS contributor, Andrew Huberman tweeted “I’ve always gone issue-by-issue on health & science, spoken to experts w/a range of takes & presented where I see the center of (data) mass pointed. I’ll do the same with @CBSNews”. In Sept he posted this:
