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.

This might be the best news I've gotten in the past two years? Possibly longer? I will literally spend as much money as it takes to get this.
I have literally NEGATIVE interest in American football. Or any football, for that matter.

Also wild that 17776 is getting a sequel *in print*...

we should have changed our ways because we recognized that misogyny and homophobia and transphobia are *sin*, not because - god help us - we decided that we were too nice for things like “doctrine” or “moral standards”

I'm dead serious: we need to communicate at like an 8th grade reading level. The words "tree equity" should never leave our lips.
This is an interesting case of language overriding substance in determining the ideological valence of an issue because “every neighborhood should have parks and street trees” is the most anodyne statement of environmental justice possible
