How about we shut down the government for this very popular and specific goal and then, hear me out, we hold out for like a month and a half and then, ok this part is important, after a watershed election where we ran the table, ONLY THEN, fold and don't get the one thing we said we wanted.

The vote to reopen the government with no deal on health care is a brutal blow to all those who have stood together to save affordable health care for more than 20 million Americans.

I will vote ‘NO’ with every fiber of my being.

I spotted this on Mastodon and I find it horrible, not least for the speed with which this has happened.

A post on Mastodon by small cypress (@small_cypress@indieweb.social):

As an art teacher I was worried AI would come up as an issue of "why should I learn how to draw when I can use AI instead."

But the real issue is that my middle schoolers CONSTANTLY believe all art I show them is AI. Digital art. Photography. Oil paintings from the Western canon. "A human couldn't do that"

Being convinced that humans can't make great art is kind of terrifying

This is blatantly calculated and Dem senators need to force Schumer out of the leader position THIS WEEK.

So I guess I have to make more fucking phone calls.

My family has been without half our income for 40 days. It has been.. very hard.

We are willing to feel that pain so people can have health care next year, or to undo these illegal recissions.

We are not willing to have been put through this for NOTHING.

So… 8 Democrats have agreed to vote for ending the shutdown. WITHOUT A GUARANTEE ON HEALTHCARE ASSISTANCE. Which was the whole fucking point. These 8 say they believe the GOP will negotiate on this on a later date. So all this happened for absolutely nothing. Fucking pathetic fools.

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.
