My name is Graham Platner and I’m running for US Senate to defeat Susan Collins and topple the oligarchy that’s destroying our country.

I’m a veteran, oysterman, and working class Mainer who’s seen this state become unlivable for working people. And that makes me deeply angry.

$60/month for Claude, ChatGPT, and Gemini Deep Research seems like a no-brainer

Tremendous leverage that keeps getting better

Of course there are shortcomings but the naysayers are missing the plot imo

Delightful episode on an idea I hold in contempt: The Polycrisis
NEW EPISODE OUT NOW!

Today’s bad idea is one with a short history but a big reach. David talks to historian Gary Gerstle about how it was originally conceived, what its current vogue says about the times in which we live and whether this really is a polycrisis.
