I am a left-of-center Democrat with a German husband and two tweenagers. Glutton for punishment. Here for Carl Sagan quotes and keen observations.
I wish Massachusetts voters made public transportation their #1 issue. We pay a lot in taxes and yet we accept ridiculous suffering just to get to work. Yes, people love cars. Why not have more parking near subway stations? Why not connect the north & south commuter rail lines? Let's fix this!

There’s gotta be a sane middle ground between Biden and Trump.

Why do we give power to such awful people? What is wrong with us?

I want a meritocracy based on character. Can somebody invent a way to measure character?

I marvel at it. Think of the creative energy required to be this loathsome in new ways, day after day, year after year

What’s the more likely explanation: that she was judged because she was a woman or because being a spouse is more inappropriate than being a son/brother?

To use your strategy: when has a man ever been judged for wanting power?

Lots of men have followed fathers and brothers into politics and somehow they aren’t judged as harshly

How ironic that these words come from a man who believes despotism succeeds

For anyone out there who isn’t vaccinated, I want you to know that not everyone gets hit hard. I had almost no reaction to my shots. Oddly, I got a mild rash that I think was related, but that was really it! Clear your calendar and make the best of it.

Please retire. We shouldn’t have politicians in their 80s, as much as it’s natural to think you’re the exception.

Trump’s awfulness has been documented a million times, but it doesn’t matter to some people unless they are personally harmed.

They will be harmed—they just didn’t connect the dots in time.

Good idea. They have debased themselves and we shouldn’t forget it.

Totally plausible that he wasn't curious about what they were looking for

Caring for other people’s welfare is never their motive.
