Wild, but completely normalized framing blaming people for not backing the person that “deserved” it instead of politicians and parties having to earn peoples votes.
Will someone please ask the 89 million Americans who didn't vote in the last election if they are being affected by anything this administration is doing to the other Americans?

My unpopular tv take is that shows like #pluribus would be better with no intro/theme song. Why remind me that I'm watching episodic tv and not just experiencing a narrative? I don't need a studio's art project that represents the show. Yield that time and $ for more narrative.

Remember, Cancel Culture and Wokeness as derogatory terms are a backlash to a societal shift in people recognizing patriarchy and systemic racism. It's really a self correcting system that started with a country of weirdos that didn't think the Church on England in the 1400s was crazy enough.

Thoughts and prayers go out to Ezra Klein tonight who has to process all this and ultimately conclude that the Dems should actually move further to the right.
Well huh, Mamdani's approach of addressing issues his constituents care about seems to be more successful than the Dems "Shut the f up and vote blue no matter who!" with young voters.

When @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social wins next week. I'll be paying attention to how hard the Democratic Party apparatus works to not learn a lesson from it. It feels inevitable, but it doesn't have to be that way.

Bernie Sanders made some pretty ridiculous comments related to border security and how basically border security is necessary to have a nation. So was the U.S. not a nation prior to the manufactured border security panic? Because people were crossing that southern border fairly freely prior to then.
Reminder that the idea of "border security" is political and a result of moral panic. In 1965, Congress passed amendments to the Immigration and Nationality Act that put number limits on immigration and ended longstanding guest worker agreements with Mexico. This helped lead to agencies like ICE. /1

Pet parrots which typically live alone (whilst those in the wild live in large flocks) were given the technology to call each other. They would use it for up to three hours a day, and developed favourite friends 💔

Greetings from #Minnesota! The weather is perfect right now, calm and in the 70's. It's what we look forward to after 7 months of winter and, more recently, a reprieve from the recent heat and humidity. The air is poisonous though and now they've said it will stick around until Monday.

A while ago, we started a #FixItFriday tradition. We keep a running list - large & small, digital & analog, anything broken or annoying - and work on it together.

Why is germ theory in the same air quotes as "miasma theory," I ask as a historian of medicine who is very very tired
Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. apparently embraces the outdated "miasma theory" of disease instead of the widely accept "germ theory" of disease, which may help explain some of the actions he's been taking.
Ancient miasma theory may help explain Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s vaccine moves

Watching @npr.org, formerly trusted public media, try to polish miasma theory as merely ‘outdated’ and downgrade germ theory from Basic Reality 101 to merely ‘widely accepted’ is giving me brain hives. What’s next NPR — are we going to relitigate the theory of the four humours?

It's wild to live in a time where we actually see history repeating itself in nonsensical ways. An opposition party that encourages everyone to rock the boat less with an existential threat coming right at us and they can't be convinced to act. The people that maybe could do something just won't.

Hey liberals, now may be a time to push that Overton window, yes? Why not nationalize our oil and water. Maybe Americans would like the idea of the Saudis not being able to sell us back our own drinking water. I dunno, I'm not @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social trying to sell books so I don't understand.

It's probably a good time now to look back at Dems 4D chess of incrementalism. Obama's signature legislation, his very legacy, was taking Mitt Romney's health care plan of giving all the money to insurance companies in return for some benefits so at least they can't call him a commie.
