She forced him to resign over sexually harassing eight women.

At the risk of getting yelled at, this is part of why I keep saying blue state NIMBYism is a travesty for democracy. When we make it so that low-income immigrants, LGBTQ people and pregnant people can't afford to live where they want, think about what they end up being subject to.

We have a moral obligation to build millions of new homes in California as fast as we can.

being an asshole to an LLM because it has no feelings or interiority assumes you will always *know* when you're interacting with an LLM and when you're interacting with a human, and you won't always know. it's better to err on the side of being neutral or even nice.

Quite the UNH poll of Maine: Governor Janet Mills' favorability is 51/41 Senator Susan Collins' is ... 14/57. Among independents, Collins' favorability is a startling 8/60. scholars.unh.edu/survey_cente...

there must be in-groups whom the press amplifies but does not question, alongside out-groups whom the press questions but does not amplify

Call me crazy, but I think California's housing crisis that's made it home to 50% of America's unsheltered homeless population while comprising just 12% of the national population, should take precedence over sweetheart deals for a union with 500k members in a state with 19M working people.

Two years ago I interviewed a 31-year-old NY state assemblymember about a 7-year-old girl killed by an SUV driver in his district. I hung up the phone, astonished that I'd talked to a legislator who so thoughtfully articulated what actually needs to change on our streets. He'll make a great mayor

You, a rube: all politics is gender Me, enlightened: all politics is car

the data backs this sentiment up!
