The Republican president is a pedophile who has doubled my healthcare costs and let scores of violent criminals out of jail. But a Democratic mayor-elect wants to make busses free in a city I don't live in. I have never felt more politically homeless.

Can you imagine the fucking subjectivity horror of asking google "hey, find me a nice t shirt"? 😐

The *actual* goal of "tech" is to make human decision and ability to think extinct, so that we outsource our entire ability to make decisions to their algorithms.

If Democrats don't run on "can't trust Republicans - they put a pedo in the WH" for the next century, what are they even doing?

Why is every D not screaming from the rooftops right now?

Today is a good day to remember, and to say, that the #MeToo movement was right, and was righteous, and has been vindicated over and over again. There was no overreach. There was no excess. There was no they-went-too-far.

So much work remains to be done.

It all would have been much easier if, as would have happened if we were remotely a serious country, it all ended with the Access Hollywood interview.

Even now, Jim Carry in Bruce Almighty is the main reason I remember how to spell B-E-A-Utiful.
I’ve remembered how to spell Desert vs Dessert because some kid in grade 5 said “dessert has two S’es because you want 2 servings”. Thanks for your service, Christian, even 20 years later 🫡
