emailing in a semi-literate manner isn’t a sign of stupidity, it’s another form of rich asshole arrogance because you don’t think you owe anyone coherent thoughts

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.
The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.
People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.
And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

Cartoonishly vile, and for what. Letting your regime continue to slip away to own the libs, or something like that

At this point, anyone—a university, a law firm, a corporation, a Democrat—bending the knee to Trump is doing it because they want to, not because of any political reality.

If you went to bed before the conclusion of that 18-inning marathon World Series game, Ray Ratto has a message for you:
If You Went To Sleep, Sorry But You Are Not Forgiven | Defector
I think we can all agree we got cheated last night, and to be technical about it, it was still last night—at least on the West Coast where the nice people live—when Freddie Freeman hit the 609th pitch...

SNAP is probably the most effective federal dollar we spend in terms of long term domestic economic outcomes.
that isn’t why you should support it; you should support it because it is a moral imperative to feed the hungry.
but it’s why even a growth-oriented ghoul shouldn’t oppose it.

Might be preaching to the choir, but Gabriel Winant’s book on care work in deindustrialized Pittsburgh is the best thing I’ve read on this
right. given the numbers, “how to win back the working class” should be as much about care and service workers as hard hats. and yet.

![So too, in Germany, brownshirts roved the streets and attacked opposition figures, intimidated judges, and ransacked newspapers. To continue to practice politics in the face of the cudgel and castor oil requires a great amount of courage. Few can be faulted for preferring their safety and that of their family to a cause that seemed increasingly hopeless. But let’s be frank: Practicing politics in the face of angry people on the internet, or the idiotic spokesmen of a failing presidency, as frightening or annoying as it can be, requires somewhat less courage. Even if your personal circumstances make it difficult for you, where and when you can, do not obey. Find ways to be intransigent; a pain in the ass. “…[P]olitics is not like the nursery, in politics obedience and support are the same,” Hannah Arendt wrote. She was passing judgment on Adolf Eichmann. Think to yourself: “What am I really supporting with this action or non-action?” No one can behave in a perfectly principled way in the confused reality of life, with all its fears and temptations, but with that as a guide, I believe one can do fairly well.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:p5yoii26kayabauhkym3vtms/bafkreif4suvuqsw4no3sqznol3s4z4zi2lu7h33ctvwsyrcmkjs276q534@jpeg)
