I am satisfied that my DSA endorsed her. Of course now I need to feel healthy enough to go canvassing for her. I type this as I listen to my child cough.

The weather change always makes me a little under the weather and the October rains just started.

It was a group effort and I didn’t organize this. But I’m proud of doing my part.

Today is Brendan’s birthday and the best way to celebrate is to buy his band’s excellent two EPs.

I have serious doubts. But let’s see if Israel holds up their end of the bargain.

Once Israel confirms all 20 living captives in Israeli territory, it says it will start releasing Palestinian prisoners.

Are you okay? You certainly act like someone on Twitter. I never accused you of making a racist joke. So why are you keeping this up?

If that’s who you claim to be, then don’t praise transphobes. If you want to be in the animal lane, then stay in that lane.

Are you serious? Log off, bro, and do something productive. Your analysis is terrible.

With Bernie’s message discipline, much like Mamdani’s, his polling numbers would likely go up because his ideas are popular. We’re seeing that in NYC.

Please read the polling. Your speculation doesn't work based on what the polls said. There is no information on Webb or O'Malley I could find, but we do know that Bernie Sanders could've won. Same with 2020. www.realclearpolling.com/polls/presid...

Movies are art, and they can say more than you'd think. Why are you disparaging art? What is wrong with you? You're the only one preaching displeasure. I mean, you literally sound like a conservative getting caught telling a racist joke.

I mean, maybe you're silly joke wasn't very good. It had some very hurtful undertones. Maybe you should start there.
