1. This Senate vote was extremely stupid, Schumer is clearly not cut out for this fight, all of these Dems that voted for cloture should have hell to pay. They absolutely deserve the anger aimed at them. Dumbest D shit I've seen in ages, get Schumer out as leader.

Lukewarm take: the signs were fine. They're going to have to experiment with approaches to things, some will land and some won't, and that's ok.

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world. Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

For now I'm deleting some things that could make me way too easy to identify without effort, though I'll leave my llama for now I guess. This is a very uncomfortable time to be queer in rural Ohio.

This is a step, good! Pair it with a*lot* of messaging about what these orders do, who they hurt, why they are illegal. Pound it. Schumer has important skills, but public messaging isn't his strength, so get others out there also doing it. But this is a direction, good!

Re: the great audiobook debate, I'm all for people engaging with books however they do; I think listening to an audiobook is reading. And it's usually just a debate about what the word "read" means, too often imbued with snobbery. Who cares all that much? Yay books!

Fwiw, I think people should block or not based on their own preferences or needs. Block freely! I personally usually leave *good faith* disagreement alone, but the second somebody decides to be a dick I have better things to do with my time.

Fwiw: Jack Dorsey being involved with this platform was part of my early ambivalence about using it. Until I came over here to check it out, I had no idea that he was no longer involved. This might be a point to bring up with some folks who seem leery of moving.

The thing about choosing people based on personal loyalty is that they are also very often totally incompetent. Doesn't mean they can't do a lot of damage, though!

Starter packs turn out to be a bit dangerous for those of us with way too many completely random interests, tbh.

Also, anybody wasting much time thinking about 2028 has imo missed the point: we never know what the full context for the next election will be by then. And that context -- the whole political environment -- matters immensely.
