As a Pennsylvanian who lives a few neighborhoods over from where he was a Mayor, I assure you I *always* voted against him in any primary where I encountered him.

Why on earth anyone is listening to anyone involved in the 2016 or 2024 Democratic campaigns (or their media champions) is beyond me.

My mom’s side of the family had a “no politics” rule which no one other than the liberals ever followed. When the liberals started saying anything — including answering a conservative’s direct question of “are you better off today than you were 4 years ago — the conservatives had fits. We don’t talk

20 years ago, I was an anthropologist and used to assign David Gilmore to undergrads, one of my favorite days of teaching was wandering through a classroom of students discussing this work and listening to them having impassioned conversations about "who gets penetrated."

About a month ago, in a fit of despair, I bought a pet fish. My 8 year old daughter was with me, and she asked me to play fish songs on the way home. The only song that came to mind was “Black Molly,” which was not what my daughter had in mind. But it put me on a riff. The fish is named Cyrus.

Allegheny County is one of the few places in the country where Dem turnout was equal to or better than 2020. No shame here.

Drive to DC from Pittsburgh yesterday instead of flying. Considering not going to a conference in Oregon next month because I can’t drive there, but waiting to see if this track record keeps up

I am an academic. Actual policing is almost non-existent & completely non-binding; the worst consequence is minor internalized shame. More often, it's just academics falling all over themselves to ask what the "correct" language is and being told there is none (with the exception of obvious slurs).

There is also a *very early stages* movement afoot for Dems to just block and/or unanimously "no" vote everything they can, including all nominations, until someone reigns in Elon Musk. So that may also affect things.

He is not confirmed, and confirmation looks shakier than it has for other nominees.

This is what I ultimately did because the other forms involved more concrete details. Contacted my congressman and senators as well.

I cannot recommend SAD light glasses enough for this. Have slept through the night every night since about a week after I started using them regularly in the morning. All the rest is still there in the morning but at least if I can get to sleep I can stay asleep.
