Why are conservative answers to home affordability focused on increasing mortgage risk and personal indebtedness rather than lowering the price of homes or increasing people’s income?

Everyday I wake up and think, “today I’m going to be more maximumly alpha than yesterday.” Then, I look in the mirror, and laugh, cause I’m not an ass hat.

Paying anybody a Trillion dollars when there is so much poverty, struggle, and lost opportunity amongst the masses feels like a breaking point for our economic order. The message is that the few are all the matter and the rest of the world should just cease existing. Humanity deserves better.

For my local Dem friends…if you are not building community you are doing it wrong: weekly volunteer events, regular social gatherings, collective actions to improve where you live. This is how you rebuild democracy.

This is basically the opposite of where things were a little over 10 years ago. Amazing changes. It was hard to be in thr minority then, I can only imagine how hard this majority will be to govern now.
Looks like the Dems will pick up 12 seats in the VA House of Delegates, which will go from 51-49 to 63-37 D-R. That's an honestly shocking result.

If Trump were smart, he would double down on the ballroom right now.

I just hope the house GOP sees this as an aberration and makes no course corrections. Thankfully, that is reasonably likely.

How America invests in its people says a lot about the society it wants. Right now everything points to wanting an extreme gulf between the haves and have nots. If you are not at the top things are designed to get worse for you and your children.

Just hung out at a Halloween party in Rappahannock county at the base of the Shenandoah National Forrest. People with all sort of politics. Eating chili. Telling ghost stories. Drinking mulled wine. America as it should be.

My take on an obituary — added a little green chartreuse and orange bitters to the gin, vermouth, and absinthe, and used lime instead of lemon for garnish.

When I see so many Dems and Rs shake in fear about @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social I can’t help but wonder why Americans want food, housing, transportation, proper education, and starting a small business to be hard, unavailable, unaffordable, or just impossible for people. Why do people want suffering?

Why has no media outlet asked Trump or his minions why they are avoiding action in the most crime ridden places?

My City can’t blink near the George Washington Parkway without major Federal oversight, public process, and expense. The same agency that controls that apparently has no issue destroying the White House.

Personal news. I’ve lost over 20 pounds since the summer. Turns out cutting out good food (not exactly) (and alcohol—mostly) is the trick.
