rewiring my brain chemistry
that said, you absolutely have to factor in the “intangibles” etc when doing analysis. WAR is one tool, and others will probably attempt at making their own WAR tools with different calculations. that said, this guy is absolutely high on his own supply trying to become a pundit as purely a data guy

going to go against the grain and say I think the WAR calculations are interesting and, possibly in some contexts, useful! no other model replicates them because to my knowledge no one is trying to. like baseball WAR, it is an attempt at making a value *approximation* based on measurable factors

we got two this year apparently, the first one was verrrry violent though

somehow two party system is maybe actually better than multiparty in FPTP

no doubt in my mind this will be leaked

it’s also with 99.9% certainty not “his idea”

easy to make an enemy of something that doesn't, in any meaningful capacity, exist - no one can prove it isn't the problem because no one can definitively prove it doesn't exist

“illegal immigration”, as I previously said, should not exist as a concept

more people means more jobs and more work in this country, and those that need assistance should get it

and no I don’t value “legals” more than “illegals”. who am I to value one human more than another?
December 17, 2025 at 12:00 AM
I think the process should be fast and easy and we as a country should make that a priority again. and that immigration should not be illegal

I don’t value people who do it “by the book” more than others, no. that’s because the book, as it is, is bad and *no one* should have to do it by that book

just because you personally had a difficult process doesn’t mean it shouldn’t be easier for everyone else in the future!

Gen Z and can confirm this is correct

…but the will of the people can’t be that they want a majority government?

learning how your organization operates and how you operate within it? yep, that’s right, waste of taxpayer dollars
December 13, 2025 at 4:04 AM
why would I say something that’s not true
December 13, 2025 at 12:33 AM
trying to offer a much more plausible and less vibes based explanation

the perpetrators should get the consequences, the victims should get the reconciliation and healing. the US should try that some day

what’s not a coincidence is that the incumbent was the same party as those two women

has she come around or is she no longer receiving AIPAC money
December 12, 2025 at 9:46 PM
if you blame voters for being stupid shitheads you actually completely misunderstand the issue. people didn’t suddenly become less smart between 2012 and 2016 and then more smart in 2020 etc
