Repeating myself, but the idea of Trump & Musk as "masculine" remains bizarre. They're just the toxic and immature parts with none of the traditional "masculine" virtues. They're whiny, entitled, unreliable, dishonest, self-absorbed, never take responsibility, never put duty over self-interest, etc.

To be young, curious and smart. “You’d follow a cable from one room to another and end up in front of a black box on the floor. All across San Francisco, I imagined, twenty-somethings were gathered around similar GPU altars to try out their ideas.”

“Preachy females” is not a slip of the tongue - it reveals a fundamentally sexist, reactionary sensibility that undoubtedly shapes everything Carville has to say about the world. And yet, ostensibly liberal media keep presenting this old crank as an oracle whose wisdom we are blessed to receive.

Step 1: Elon takes over Twitter, unbans and amplifies the worst white nationalist posters, methodically turns it into a right wing echo chamber. Step 2: Users who aren’t white nationalists or MAGA extremists leave for Bluesky en masse. Step 3: op-ed columnists fret, “is Bluesky an echo chamber?”

My grandmother voting for Kamala Harris. Born 1918. 2 years old when the 19th Amendment was ratified. 47 when the Voting Rights Act secured her vote. Will turn 107 on inauguration day. She’s lived through it all, and she’s damn sure not going back.

Breaking: By issuing a stay in the Virginia mass voter challenge case, the Supreme Court has injected confusion into the election. This stay will cause eligible Virginia citizens to be purged from voter rolls just before the election — all in service of a conspiracy theory.

Pennsylvania Republican: How Donald Trump talks about this country is the opposite of what brought me to the Republican Party in the first place. Ronald Reagan used to say America was 'a shining city upon a hill.' Donald Trump just called America 'a garbage can'

It's the Roy Cohn playbook. When you have a vulnerability, just attack. Preferably accuse your opponent(s) of exactly your weakness. It exploits news organizations' resistance to making factual judgments. News organizations won't be able to resist the balanced framing, even though you're 100% lying.

Donald Trump is not just attacking Kamala Harris and Roy Cooper because they're Democrats. They also play key roles in election process. If Cooper were incapacitated before January 1, for example, Mark Robinson would take over.

So if I’m reading this right, the ruling is that the referendum protecting abortion rights is invalid because they didn’t tell people loudly enough that it might invalidate parts of the law that restrict abortion rights? This is a thing judges can do now?
