I learned that some people are using AI to generate a summary of the book I'm offering free 😆

I therefore decided to compete with AI by writing my own summary, which I am calling Over the Cliff Notes.

You can find them here: terikanefield.com/over-the-cli...

It’s finished.

It’s also not finished because, in the words of Paul Valéry, a piece of writing is never finished. Ultimately it is abandoned. That’s because writing is thinking, and we’re never finished with that.

Anyway, I figured out what to do with that long blog post . . .

You want to know what a couple of decades of standardized testing has done to literacy rates?

Look around, friends.

Yes. Please.
What if we overturned Citizens United and stopped the flow of money into politics?

I don't know who needs to hear this, but an economy controlled by a handful of oligarchs isn't a "free market."

If I could change one thing about democratic politics, it would be to stop paying attention so much attention to the other side. Start working on your own business and your own voters. You can’t change Maga. They already know the worst about their orange God.

We outnumbered them anyway.

I believe hate is wasted time and energy and that being kind is one of the most important features a person can have. I believe I’m far from perfect and will continue to make mistakes. I know all of this is corny in so many ways. But so few people with a platform open up. Aren’t you glad you asked

A cool thing about the US is that it’s (mostly) possible to choose rural, small town, small city, suburban or large city lifestyles. All have their own up- and down-sides. What sucks is that we tend to pit them against each other. We should embrace them all without a side of trash-talk.

Our system is set up so that we resolve our differences electorally.

If you haven’t voted, organized, paid attention to issues and candidates or otherwise engaged, then don’t be surprised when the government doesn’t reflect you or your interests.

Come. On.
Just got word that Secretary Noem is asking for an addition to her budget - a new private Gulfstream 5 jet for her personal national photo op tour. She's already got a private plane but wants a tricked out new one.

All while she supports kicking 13 million people off Medicaid.

To be effective, our opposition to today's abuses must run alongside a clear picture of what we are actually for - and how everyday life could be better with different leadership.

Our current healthcare system will cost $50T over the next 10 years.

When Fox News and insurance lobbyist-funded politicians say that Medicare for All will cost $32T over 10 years, they're leaving out the part that it's an $18T savings and guarantees all of us high quality healthcare.

Again, I am ASTOUNDED that SO MANY people don’t understand that if Walmart or Target can’t stock their shelves, NO STORE will be able to. It doesn’t matter if you are boycotting them.

How are people on both sides somehow not grasping this concept?!?

This is a widely inaccurate & dangerous mischaracterization. The vaccine was developed in fetal cells obtained from two elective abortions in the early 1960s. There is not abortion debris floating around in the vaccine. And the Vatican has okayed its use. RFK Jr. is again spreading disinformation.
RFK Jr on measles: "The MMR vaccine contains a lot of aborted fetus debris."

You can’t say criminals don’t deserve due process when due process is the thing that decides if they're criminals. Otherwise you're just kidnapping people you don't like.

If you want to win a trade war, you gotta have something to trade that other side wants. And we're in a trade war with the very people who make all the things WE want.

You're not going to win that.
