Harris ran a campaign where she went right on immigration, didn’t touch trans stuff, and held to Biden’s (awful) Gaza policy. She still got tarred as hard left. Trump held his votes from 20, Dem votes plummeted. Appealing to moderate conservatives is pointless, may as well lean left.

There should be a hotline where people who have had necessary medical care denied can call people who defend the for-profit healthcare system and have their impending death explained to them guns versus butter style.

Being autistic in the workplace has its challenges. I'm always refusing to agree to impossible deadlines, saying exactly what I mean, demanding processes in place so we don't make the same mistake twice, pointing out the natural ramifications of our decisions, and other embarrassing social foibles
