The only thing that's ever improved life for the poor and working class under capitalism is a strong redistributive social policy.
Everything else: “free markets uplift everyone,” “entrepreneurship solves poverty,” is libertarian mythology. A comforting bedtime story.

If Ross was suffering PTSD from a prior motor vehicle dragging incident and then placed himself both behind and in front of a vehicle during an incident in which he is clearly the one escalating, maybe the ultimate verdict is that he's a fucking idiot.

One day in the not too distant future, Trump will be permanently silenced. Swept up and deposited into time's winged wastebasket and shuttled off to hell. I look forward to that day now more than ever.

Trump and Noem are too fucking stupid to say the matter should be investigated before passing judgment. They are going to back their troglodyte goon squad no matter what they do.

The highest achievement of progressive Democrats in the past two decades has been the formation of a largely powerless legislative caucus.

In the U.S., the word “utopian” is hauled out to describe as impossibly imaginary what other nations take for granted: affordable healthcare, reliable transit, wages that keep pace with the cost of living, a life without crushing debt.

Inequality is the operating principle. And until the working class builds power outside the donor-captured parties that administer this arrangement, the machine will keep doing exactly what it was built to do since the founding.
Poverty is a policy choice. Concentrated wealth is a policy choice. Inequality is a policy choice. None of it is natural or inevitable. Remember: We have the power to build a system that serves the many, not the powerful few.

I wish publishers would focus on well-written books that reward the reader's intellect, instead of formulaic crap written at a fourth-grade reading level. Unfortunately, pandering to the lowest common denominator with "See Dick and Jane solve murder" makes the most money.

If you could change one thing about the publishing industry, what would it be? I wish that being a debut author was welcomed, not rejected #writingq #WritingCommunity

I think the thing about writing books that annoys me is that you have to keep relearning how to write them. Each book is different and asks different things of you. You have to keep growing and shit.

There is a book club organization out there emailing authors telling them the club will feature their work for a "modest fee" for "branded materials" etc. Do not fall for this nonsense. You should never, as a writer, have to pay for such things.
