Big strong men come up to me with tears in their eyes, “Sir” they say, “Sir! I touched the stove! I touched it A LOT and it didn’t hurt at all!” They try to shake my hand but can only give me a bloody stump but that’s OK. They’re suckers and losers but I dunno, what do we think folks? Are they?

I’m bemused by all the pushback on what seems like a pretty cut and dry issue. Especially when there are other progressive candidates in the race (Jordan Wood)

The large “not sure” among self-identified Republicans can be translated to, “I don’t want to say anything that might upset Il Duce”

There is another young, progressive candidate in the race

It’s a crusader’s cross tattoo

It’s an SS totenkopf tattoo

Not for nothing, but Jordan Wood is a perfectly good progressive candidate also running in the Maine Senate race. It’s not like the choice is only between Planter or Mills.

Probably. Mills has a lot of vulnerabilities herself, not least of which is, she’ll be 79 if she takes office

tonigo @tonigo.bsky.social · 2d

Blaming Mills/DSCC? How about blaming Planter for getting the tattoo in the first place? It’s not like the totenkopf was once a neutral symbol that suddenly became Nazi-fied

There’s a perfectly good progressive candidate running - Jordan Wood.

What are we even doing here?

tonigo @tonigo.bsky.social · 2d

Much as I hate to admit this, could it be that Schumer and the DSCC/DNC knew Platner was problematic?

At least there’s still the beer guy?

The colors are a nod to the state bird, the American goldfinch

So when you make fun of the NJ license plates, this is who you’re making fun of, Philip

The American goldfinch, who Philip Bump hates, never did no harm to nobody

If we’re inviting more people into our tent, maybe they should be the ones to compromise a little. They shouldn’t get to set the agenda—frankly, more centrists would benefit from learning that it’s possible to occasionally concede to the left as well as to the right.
