Why no pronouns? I began writing online when Usenet was a thing. I have always appreciated that online my ideas mattered more than my identity. I maintain that ethos by keeping this, my primary account, free of my gender, race and ethnicity. If you need pronouns for this account, use ze/zir.

The best part about winter is watching it online from California. #IDontDoSnow
I grew up in an area with extremely long and frustrating to shovel driveways (gravel and broken asphalt) and as kids we spent hours shoveling out our drive and all the neighbors in walking distance, just because if you're already out there and sweaty and sore you might as well

Countries without robust free speech protections have such weird rules. Can someone explain to a Yank what got printed and how it was illigal.

one thing i have noticed is a lot of folks do not seem to understand the difference between a presidential election and 435+ legislative elections. i have seen any number of people say that you could subvert the outcome this november by targeting “swing states,” which does not make any sense.

Emotionally manipulative is promising one kind of movie - say a light-hearted comedy or cheesy action flick - and delivering some deep, dark, depressing drama in the third act.

Remember that the original proposal was to make St. Patrick's Day a federal holiday, and Southern Protestants blocked it. Columbus was the compromise.

How Kavanaugh stops will end: Somewhere in Texas, a bus carrying a HS football team to a critical game will be stopped by the local sherif to "check immigration status." Team will be held until they lose by forfeit.

The Uniparty is testing public response to see what is the least they can do and still have us believe there is a difference between the two "parties"

So basically we have one party who is using the secret police to execute us in the streets, and the other party wants the secret police to be better trained.

Every representative who voted yes voted for more brutalization of our neighbors, more kidnapping of our children, more trampling of our rights, and more murder from this government.

Entertaining large groups of people was so dangerous that Newsom had 20 lobbyist go out to dinner with him. He bailed out Hollywood movie theaters with millions, but no help if your business didn't contribute to his election fund. Newsom is the Trump of the Democratic Party.

Sure, but the first step in treating cancer is typically the gross exhumation of the tumor. Removing Trump from office won't end the problem, but I cannot see a path forward that doesn't start with him no longer being president.

Apologies for using a military analogy, but this is so common in militarizes that go to war unexpectedly, that is has become a trope. The CO who wants to dress up, give orders, and parade around in military fashion, but has no apatite for the actual battle he never expected to be in.

Super blue cities mostly in states where the rest of the state is Red and would be an easy GOP win if not for that one huge blue urban center.

Harris never "won" the nomination. She was the anointed successor. It made her a weak candidate.

This is the thing about the "Don't give them the pretext to send in more feds" arguments. The administration is using its own murder of an unarmed civilian as the pretext to send in more agents. They do not need a pretext and will invent them if they want.

Who do you recommend in SoCal because No Kings ain't doing shit and their the only group I've seen on the streets. If someone were actually ready to organize an opposition, you'd think they would be pretty high visibility.
