just listen to this dude blame Biden for our current economic problems!!! Do you agree that Frank is wrong here, Kai?

my follow up question is: WHAT HAPPENED TO NPR?

President Trump minimized concerns about the economy during a Pennsylvania rally Tuesday. NPR's Leila Fadel speaks with political consultant Frank Luntz about Trump's latest take.

it would be sick if NPR quit booking people like Frank Luntz from their programming entirely. so that he doesn't say things like "THERE'S STILL TIME FOR REPUBLICANS TO WIN THE MID TERMS" like he did this am on morning edition.

you would 'check the internet' and then you walked away form the computer and went about your day. maybe you came back later to check again. but you were not ALWAYS ONLINE.

a simpler time, for sure.

the crew doing the Agency sizzle video with metrics on "how well this campaign did" hates this guy.

sounds like every pitch video i've been a part of my entire career.

they love the smell of their own farts at the Agency.

p sure they're all envious of him.

i mean don't get me wrong: i'm clowning that guy every chance i get. but they _love_ him over there. he has no qualms with what he's doing.

was depressingly venting to a colleague about all this Ai shit and they reminded me: at least we had the balls to chase this career. at least we put ourselves out there. we could've settled and hated our careers (ha!) but we followed our dream. a prompt can't make that.

(i'm still depressed).

an ex coworker (a former producer) has just been made the First Agentic Ai Specialist at a large Agency in my very large city.

it is depressing.

i work in post and when those dropped i was an assist, and one of my jobs was kerning supers.

there's a notoriously picky client that would make us kern _legal_. and i made sure to wear this on days they were in house.

i miss it, no idea what happened to it 😥

mine either. and while i hope valid criticism pushes her left, i believe she can speak to rural texans better than any of the other candidates.

it doesn't sound like they like Talarico either, but not as much as Crockett.

i'm tired of losing elections here.

she's in a primary vs Talarico now, w/Cornyn & Paxton in a primary on the other side of the aisle.

Cruz's next race is 2030.
