I'm urging the democratic party to tone it down a little. They've heated things up all the way to "we might have to look into this," and I fear there's no going back from that kind of inflammatory rhetoric.

Exclusive: I have confirmed that the federal government is still refusing to process permit applications for land-based wind projects almost six months into the Trump administration. Not just offshore. It threatens untold billions of capital investments in the United States. via @heatmap.news

This is the language of abuse. "Yes, he beats you, but you must not provoke him. Don't make him mad or he'll make it even worse." But it does not work. He beats you anyway because that's what he wants to do. He gets pleasure from it. And we can't even leave. There is no place for us to go.

We need to build some real social stigma around being afraid of cities. You don't have to like them or live there, but a politics built this strongly around watching TV and going "ewww" is embarrassing, and people should be embarrassed by it. It's like "fear of werewolves" being your top issue.

Republicans see that being an aggressive jerk is effective in interpersonal conflict, and think that War is just a scaled up version of A Fight. If you want something — anything! — to work on a national scale, you need to put a detail-oriented bureaucrat in charge. Logistics win wars, not muscles

It's incredible how consistently Trump treates everyone around him like complete shit even when it would be in his direct interest to do otherwise.

Important thing to beat people over the head with: Trump has turned American cities into warzones and for fucking what? Prices are way up, jobs will be way down, the dollar is worth less, and now the highway is blocked off by cops. Maybe the Great Mythical Immigrant wasn’t the problem after all.

If you are a liberal in Seattle who has been skeptical of efforts to shrink and demilitarize the SPD, please pay attention. Google Police Guild president Mike Solan. The SPD will 100% support Trump's assault on democracy.

I got my engineering degree at a Jesuit school, and I cannot understate the value of the philosophy track. It is good to spend a few hundred hours being asked "What is important to live a good life?" and "How would a person behave if they actually believed that to be true?"

So ICE caused a traffic jam, started their raid right in front of the traffic jam, and then attacked the people stuck in traffic who were angry about the whole thing and recording it on their phones. People sometimes have a hard time understanding that police start the violence, but come on
