- If the Democratic Party is going to oust, attack, and silence the only members of their caucus doing anything to actually stop Trump and MAGA then people will continue to leave the party and sit out elections. Why shouldn't they if the party won't allow anyone to represent them? What's the point?
- Being a better ally doesn't cost much, but the returns are immeasurable to communities and individuals. Voting ain't the beginning or end of progress. Don't just pick a side—fight for people when it doesn't benefit you. They'll do the same for you. Solidarity is everything; we struggle together.

- I'm far more concerned about the sewage contaminated water's exposure to RFK, Jr. than I am about the inverse.
- It's an obvious part of AW1 to run from the danger. It's clear that's what the game is both telling you to do through the narrative and forcing you to do through gameplay elements like limited resources. I'm just learning this. Everyday I wonder if they'd have diagnosed me had I been born later.
- Some people can't bring themselves to criticize any institution or person in what they consider "liberal media" or Democratic politics. They'd rather deny or justify incontrovertible evidence of wrongdoing. It's the same tribalistic instinct against self-criticism that saw DNC goers mocking Gaza.
- I'll bite. The use of canines in policing and military work is tantamount to animal abuse and should be criminalized. (Modern zoos do important husbandry and conservation work. That work can and should be done without camel rides, exhibits, and other forms of stressful captivity and exploitation.)
- I remember mama slalom skiing on Norris. 🚤 She'd light her batons outside for every summer holiday. She'd toss one in the air, do a one-handed cartwheel on the other, spin, then catch it. 🔥 She played the piano and flute expertly. 🎶 She'd climb and jump using her whole body to start a dirtbike. 💨
- I don't know whose Aunt Becky this is, but I hope they know I love their cool aunt too.
- I just watched a charitable breakdown of a day at Disney (by a weird adult Disney fan family). They seem to live ordinary lives: couple with two boys. How do they afford it? Folks with average incomes save or go into debt to pay thousands for a day at a theme park. Same with music festivals. Why?
