Tout this widely. The biggest danger right now is, as @dandrezner.bsky.social said yesterday, pluralistic ignorance, when “people who hold a majority opinion are unaware that it is a majority opinion”. We need to broadcast all the signs that the town halls etc are not a fluke.
uhhhh it looks like Dems just flipped a R+17 Pennsylvania State Senate seat in Amish country…

Good thing AI never makes mistakes, huh?
During the McCarthy era, professors at Yale lost positions thanks to anonymous accusations. Today advances in technology allow us to dispense with costly human informants and destroy the lives of scholars far more efficiently.

Got a little preview of TMNT 8 (pre order ends Monday) and man-- you're not ready. This series really has the makings of a new classic era for the Turtles. Definitely worth a pickup!

Well, Georgia friends, here's someone to yell at first thing tomorrow
In a leaked recording, State Senator Elena Parent (D-42) said she’d vote for Republican transgender healthcare bans because trans rights are too “unpopular."
"You can go right to heck. I don’t think I will lose re-election based on you screaming at me"

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F.
18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it.
We made this website to tell our story:
