YIMBYism and Abundance are worldwide movements!
It meant the world to me when @yimbylabour.bsky.social welcomed me to London this summer to mark the 20th anniversary of surviving the 7/7 attacks by visiting Parliament and interviewing the amazing YIMBY MP Chris Curtis for Radio Abundance!

I love it, but not because of the big pic of my face!
I believe in a future where we Defeat Fascism, Build America, and unleash the era of Progressive Abundance.
Muscular patriotism and American history do not belong to the fascists!
Liberals who build are the soul of American greatness.

Wow, thank you!!!
To be honest, the only Dungeons & Dragons games I've ever hosted were to raise money for Kamala. We did raise over $100,000 though, and Sean Astin from The Lord of the Rings even joined us!! I got the idea from amazing pioneers in the immersive community, which is my home base!

The left-leaning party in Italy has run theses community centers for decades starting after WWII. They are excellent “third places” and bring together people of different ages. Many host sport leagues. Some have daycares. This is an excellent idea that Dems should look into.

Trump isn’t the fun insurgent anymore. He’s the power, the elite — and he’s coming for your savings, your job, your speech, your daughter’s body, your undocumented grandma, and anyone who defies him.
Bloodshed and high prices are coming. Draw the battle lines. Shape the story.

Trump won a mandate to lower prices, defy censors, knock elites down a peg, and bring back 2019’s economy.
He will betray this immediately with price hikes, state oppression of speech, elite-led plunder, and economic shocks.

Agreed! For a time, the best strategy was to avoid damaging soundbites.
Today, we’re dealing not with a world that takes things out of context, but a world that makes up its own context. Voids are filled with lies.
The only remedy is to show up, go everywhere, and answer questions till you drop.

Jen revised this to be clear it was a scheduling choice, which actually frames the real strategic rethink we need:
Was it wise to prioritize a swing state rally for 20,000 supporters over an interview that would get 35,000,000 views?
Not anymore! Our outreach gameplan must change — immediately.

Remake the Democratic Party in your own image, and we’ll still face this challenge.
What has to change is our ambassadors — and where we go, and how often.
We need charismatic champions who can be ubiquitous across the media potential voters consume, winning the argument and growing the team.

Then it hit me: The big success of the US right over the last decade or so, helped by a cadre of centrists, is convincing a lot of people that the Democratic Party is whoever you think is the most radical, most annoying person on the internet. Therefore, voting Republican is a vote against them.
