i am agog that Newsom actually said out loud that he never really thought about affordability until he talked to a streamer who wouldn't let it go.

This is part of why I left the DC journalism scene. The feigned jadedness is fucking obnoxious.
For a long time, that was THEE affect that signaled you were a Real Journalist: being savvy and smart enough to know that people with principles were quaint, pitiable little curiosities. And if those people happen to be women, well then they're also just downright childish.
i’ll add that what substantively seems to annoy silver is the existence of people with principles

If you're wondering what happened to Nate Silver, he was into the COVID lab leak theory and got negative feedback online, including from epidemiologists and virologists and (GASP!) posters, which added to his belief that The Woke are victimizing Nate Silver. It spiraled from there.

This is a true & effectively irrefutable argument ... which is why it's so fun to read the absolute cosmic nonsense in the comments.
"I need to go higher than the speed limit when I'm passing/avoiding something/driving in snow/feel like it!"
"I need to go higher than the speed limit when I'm passing/avoiding something/driving in snow/feel like it!"
My least popular (and most correct) view is that cars should be automatically limited to the local speed limit. Put the pedal to the floor and you still can't go over 25mph in a residential area.

There is no possible justification for limiting e-bikes to 15mph but not cars.

Things climate scientists should not have to say:
A thermometer reading doesn’t depend on how you vote.
No, those jets are not spewing mind control exhaust.
Yes, an oil exec really does make a lot more than we do.
And no, it’s not volcanoes, natural cycles, or the sun. We really have checked.
