That asshole who swerved across three lanes to remind me how unimportant I am? He’s not the only one.

I think I’ve spent a lot of my life believing what I can only call the craziest confidence trick ever: that life owed me something.
Not just anything, mind you. I always aimed high
I have to tell you the bad news, it definitely isn’t.

#Pulte approached #Trump last weekend with a 3x5 piece of posterboard that read "Great American Presidents," and showed a picture of #Roosevelt with the text "30-year mortgage" on the left, and a picture of Trump with the text "50-year mortgage" on the right.

While just 31% of those surveyed said they would have voted for Mamdani—more than any other candidate—and the same share said they would vote for a candidate who identified as a “democratic socialist,” the policies he ran on garnered far more support.

Neoliberalism the flagship doctrine since the 1980s is fast unraveling before our eyes. What was once solid ground now feels like a maze of shifting policies, faltering markets, and aftershocks that hit our wallets instead of our neighborhoods.

The current myth of how to age well has nothing to do with reality. We’ve been led to believe that getting to your 80s and 90s is some kind of prize, a big accomplishment that should be celebrated. Don’t believe it!
