To be effective, our opposition to today's abuses must run alongside a clear picture of what we are actually for - and how everyday life could be better with different leadership.

100 days into this presidency, Americans are paying the price - higher prices, crashing retirement accounts, and broken promises. But the American people are turning, thanks to your voices. Keep it up. It's up to us to demand something better.

Pritzker: The reckoning is here. And now that this culture of timidity is on display, these same do-nothing Democrats want to blame our losses on the defense of Black people, trans kids, and immigrants, instead of on their own lack of guts and gumption.

"Pete Buttigieg delivered a masterful performance last week on comedian Andrew Schulz’s Flagrant podcast, but some liberals aren’t happy about it. It’s as if the 2028 Democratic primary has already begun. 1/3 www.playtyperguy.com/p/pete-butti...

They make it sound like there are millions of dead people getting Social Security checks. But it's just not true.

I want politics to be about a better everyday life. Here's what that can look like:

💥 BREAKING: Levi Strauss shareholders voted today to reject a proposal calling on the company to cease / abolish all DEI efforts (tally TBD). LEVI Board: “Diversity and inclusion principles are critical in ensuring that our products reflect and are relevant to our diverse global consumer base.”

Fantastic and necessary piece from @hakeemjefferson.bsky.social (deleted earlier post because typo) stanforddaily.com/2025/04/22/w...

In GA, @runforsomething.net alum Everton Blair decided to challenge an elderly incumbent Democratic member of Congress who couldn't answer a basic friendly question about legislative strategy at a town hall. www.semafor.com/article/04/2...

If we’re serious about more efficient government and better everyday life in America - which we all should be - that means actually improving government, not cutting health care for poor people and slashing support for veterans.

Marriott’s CEO said it straight: “We welcome all… we create opportunities for all… that’s who we are as a company.” He went back to his hotel to find 40K emails from Marriott associates worldwide saying “thank you.” Plenty of CEOs talk. Capuano showed up. Marriott still has my business.

“You can’t say people are our most important product and then treat them like shit.” - Jim Sinegal, co-founder of Costco

I do think that Democratic voters--whether "Democrat" or not--have done tremendous harm to the electoral prospects of the Dem party through our online behavior. Including myself, here. That doesn't mean I think we've behaved "wrongly." I only mean that it's a dynamic we should recognize.

Fear has a way of being contagious. But courage is also contagious.

Formula 1: Drive to Survive showed up in my Netflix feed the other day. I thought the algorithm was tripping. Last night I was bored and decided to check it out. I ended up binging three episodes of the latest season. I think I'm into Formula 1 now 😈.

Yes, the stock market may be tanking and our national security apparatus has never been more vulnerable and we're on the verge of both economic collapse and war, but it was all worth it to keep pronouns out of email signatures.

‘Target suffers eighth week of foot-traffic losses since caving on DEI Costco, which resisted demands to end DEI, extends its streak of foot-traffic gains to 13.’

My beloved Louisianans, I feel enough time has passed. A warning: The last time Mississippians trounced a conservative ballot measure, which we almost always do, conservatives decided they’d had enough and just… took them away. We ain’t had em since. Been 4 years now. Just keep an eye out.

France raises a fascinating hypothetical point: what if the law still exists even if people might get mad at you

I knew Landry was full of shit when he blamed the left for all of his amendments getting rejected by voters.

The future is a web of branching paths, and each choice opens up new possibilities as it closes others. This is as true for a civilization as it is for an individual. The more our collective intelligence can inform each choice, the better our chances of finding paths through to a beautiful future.

BREAKING: Louisianans just rejected a ballot measure that would have paved the way for more children to be prosecuted as adults. It lost by roughly 30%. Here’s how a supporter had justified it: “Some of these kids are already lost when they’re two years old.” Context: boltsmag.org/louisiana-am...

"There's no way these right-wing constitutional amendments lose in deep red Louisiana!" Louisiana voters:

Right now there are a lot of new eyes on Signal, and not all of them are familiar with secure messaging and its nuances. Which means there’s misinfo flying around that might drive people away from Signal and private communications. 1/
