You can and should still try to elect people who will push the Dems forward but it's why I'm wary of guys like Platner because of similar warning signs.

Fetterman is extra annoying because people at the time who knew him said he wasn't really that progressive and had a lot of skeletons in his closet but the opponent was Dr. Oz and everyone thought Lamb was the one to sell his people out. Just a weird election all along.

But I really do wish they'd have held out longer or at least gotten more from this. And stuff like the House still not seating the rep from Arizona drives me crazy as well. Just letting these idiots run the country badly for months now.

Yeah, I think another week probably pushes Thune hard but Trump also made it abundantly clear he's not flinching on ACA subsidies and the GOP leadership absolutely won't cross him. And yeah, I'm not on SNAP or haven't gotten paid in a month and a half, so I do get trying to help those people.

It's a bad deal and Senate Dems should have fought harder but absolutely the 24M people on ACA packages are going to see huge premium jumps and blame the GOP.

You don't really need grounds to pack a court, and SCOTUS has already given enough reasons on that front. I'm also dubious court packing fixes anything with SCOTUS in the long term.

The glee they have in shooting the hostages really has no equal in US history, at least one anyone alive remembers. The myth that lemmings follow each other off a cliff was actually due to some filmmakers pushing them off, but this GOP absolutely will jump off a cliff for a demented racist.

I don't like the deal one bit but anyone thinking SCOTUS was going to rule for SNAP benefits is being highly optimistic.

What they settled for is what sucks here. Had they held out for a week and then came to this conclusion it would be bad but you'd sort of understand that they've got quitters in the party. But they held the line for a month and then flights get screwy and suddenly the deals are on the table.

It's also mentioned in the article but basically his team follows back people with large followings so my guess is they really didn't investigate too deeply the people beyond their pages, if that even matters.

The part where he threatened a vending machine with a block if it didn't shape up is funny.
Grim has been on my watch list since he actively defended a violent SA guy because he talked like a DSA member. The fact he hangs around in Xwitter and fights with Elon's AI isn't a huge shock

I like the part where he spoke to "at least 6" officers, which means he doesn't know exactly how many people he talked to about a topic he definitely felt strongly enough about to tweet. Surely this easily memorable detail being squishy doesn't point to the rest of his message being BS as well.

The suicide and mental health issues exacerbated by these AI models, especially for younger people, needs to addressed. The guy who somehow thought he discovered a mathematical formula that broke the internet and created force fields after talking to a model for 300 hrs is something different.

Sometimes I see people like 20 tweets deep into an argument with Grok. Like, what are you doing brother? You are trying to win an argument with a vending machine.

Podcast equipment is simply too expensive. It's insane these three people were able to sit around microphones and believe what they were saying is worthwhile discussion topics and not the utter BS it actually is.

It really does feel that Tesla's business relies simultaneously on people believing every other car company is run by idiots who can't do anything as brilliant as Musk but also are bound legally by the exact definitions and expectations set by those companies despite any claims to the contrary.

At some point he's just going to run out of stupid people willing to fund his dumb ideas, right? Like, Tesla's actual sales aren't great and market share in shrinking, so an imaginary crime robot side quest feels like a cash loser even to idiots

Given their general stupidity I expect the Road Rules guy and his minions to not understand how layovers and connecting flight play into travel with highly predictable outcomes when it comes to their selective cuts.

I was led to believe that AI was such an appealing new technology that private investors would be lined up to support them. I get it's a big buildout but maybe the fact people are hesitant to invest that heavily would be a sign you either scale it back or question the underlying fundamentals.

I'm sure there's nuanced data to an extent but "still was there a minute ago, now it's not" feels like information any of these countries can glean from the historical record and basic math.
