Average Democratic voter at this point HATES the party leadership.
I think Senate folders are significantly underestimating how fucking angry Democratic voters are at them

I feel like we have the opportunity to turn David Lynch's quote into this moment's "Keep Calm and Carry On" and it's a far better rallying cry too.

Ran a national debt simulator to show how you can’t really reduce the deficit without tax increases and one kid managed to balance the budget by setting the upper middle class income tax bracket to 178%.

Finished Katabasis by RF Kuang. I really liked this book and thought it wove together a lot of interesting philosophical concepts and mythologies. I was hooked throughout even if it did sometimes feel a bit pretentious (which I think was deliberate). 4.5 stars.

For fun I did a tarot pull about elections today and I got
VA GOV: The Emperor
VA LG: The Magician
VA AG: Four of Wanda
NJ GOV: The Lovers
NYC Mayor: The Tower
Prop 50: Wheel of Fortune
Which is…interesting.
Think the NYC one might be more about the response to results.

This isn't a closing election argument, it's Vidkun Quisling explaining why surrender is better than resistance.

The more I see about the Baileys and their perpetual influence on Schumer the more I wonder if Chuck accidentally made himself bound to the whims of a pair of egregores he created.
![When a young Chuck Schumer arrived at Harvard in 1967 as a freshman, he joined the great political stirring of those years—who could resist it? But Abbie Hoffman he was not. “I was faced with what Alexander Hamilton called mobocracy,” Schumer recalled in his coauthored 2007 book Positively American. He became a College Democrat, canvassed for Eugene McCarthy, and eschewed the radicals. Campus members of the New Left’s Progressive Labor faction horrified him, and he felt “sickened” seeing protesters scream at cops. “The police weren’t pigs. They were the people I’d grown up with. They were my neighbors. My friends. They were the Baileys [imaginary Irish-American Long Islanders with whom Schumer consults on decisions].” Soon enough, Schumer’s party—the College Dems and, of course, their friends the non-college Dems—would pay the price. “By the late ’70s,” Schumer observed, “the Baileys did not trust the Democrats anymore, and the Democrats weren’t listening to the Baileys.”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:hbpefio3f5csc44msmbgioxz/bafkreiel46xfqpfmntpl5k63lovtbqdnepc4fcvgglcgxgqtmta6ubug5u@jpeg)

Ultimately this is a pretty naive take. Yes, some of the Tea Party (including many founders) were mainly invested in small government and fiscal conservatism but the real core of it ls large rise was racial animus and nativism that comfortably assimilated Tea Partiers into the wider MAGA movement.
Just a few years after the tea party movement, the Republican Party was captured by the MAGA movement and President Trump, whose agenda, to some tea party pioneers, is the opposite of theirs and which dominates the party today.
In Trump’s GOP, the once-mighty tea party is hard to find
Since the movement upended politics 15 years ago, Republicans have sharply changed direction under MAGA — with many tea party veterans along for the ride.

Just finished We Sold Our Souls by Grady Hendrix. This was a nice love letter to the metal genre as well as a more unique twist to the classic ‘rock star sells his soul for fame’ trope. I binge read it in about two days so I feel like I have to give it 4.5 stars.

Just watched all The Conjuring movies I hadn’t seen (movies 2-4) and damn it’s crazy how the order is also a quality ranking.
2 is pretty good, Devil Made Me Do It is kinda boring and Last Rites is a M E S S.
