"my least woke opinion is---"
That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.
Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

Every American should have to declare allegiance to an NFL team.
Depending on how many fans that NFL team has, your votes for president and Senate are weighted accordingly.
If this idea sounds ridiculous then you've just understood why the Electoral College and the Senate have to go

ICE AGENTS will be held ACCOUNTABLE.
Mamdani: "My message to ICE agents & to everyone across this city is that everyone will be held to the same standard of the law. If you violate it, you must be held accountable. There is sadly a sense growing that certain people are allowed to violate that law, whether they be POTUS or ICE agents."

Lowkey one of my favorite hacks for reclaiming attention/cutting down on notifications: turn that text into an email.
Saw something funny? Reminded you of a convo with a friend from last week? Email it to them. No reason they HAVE to see it right away. They'll do the same. Email.
