@jmoiron.bsky.social Every $TSLA quarterly announcement this year has been "we can't even give away our cars and the macro is getting worse" followed by a fabricated timetable for one of their vaporware projects, and the market reaction is "this guy's a genius lets give Musk literally a trillion doll...

@jmoiron.bsky.social Last night I had pickled chicken feet and pumpkin cheesecake, definitely the weirdest combo in recent memory.
@jmoiron.bsky.social Very encouraging that Zohran is not just about moonshot programs that will be difficult to enact given the limited powers of the Mayor.
There's plenty of waste from overlooked government operations and graft from corrupt NYS dem machinery that would be valuable to clear out.

@jmoiron.bsky.social If one person can drive coverage for a whole week by shooting someone, and millions of people can't even get front page for a peaceful protest, what kind of political engagement are we really encouraging?
@jmoiron.bsky.social Bob Holden beclowning himself for Curtis Sliwa. Maybe it's bad when one guy runs as both a Republican and Democrat and there is literally no other option.
@jmoiron.bsky.social replied: Sweet haul. IIn case there's no translation, the bottom part of that Shirou panel says "Dominion" (black text), "Black Magic" (red text), and "Senjutsu Chokokaku Orion" (thinner red text).
@jmoiron.bsky.social replied: Party leaders constantly lament that the party is unpopular because they are getting "too progressive", but people like Sanders and AOC have pretty high net favorability. The real problem is that the party stands for nothing and the candidates all feel inauthentic.
@jmoiron.bsky.social replied: I guess just question the idea that the Democrats aren't already doing this. The centrists that run the party are already intoxicated with capitulation. They gave $90m to candidates like Amy McGrath so she could get her ass kicked by the barely animated corpse of Mitch McConnel.
@jmoiron.bsky.social replied: Klein's point that having an extra 2-3 Joe Manchin type Democrats who suck in the Senate would be "Good, Actually" because it would reduce GOP power.. that's just true. That's not an optimal scenario, but it might be the best we can do for now.. I understand that line of thought...
@jmoiron.bsky.social I listened to Ezra Klein's latest with Ta-Nehisi Coates and I thought it was pretty good? I'm far more on Coates' side, and I think that Klein is trying to recapture a dead past and build a coalition that no longer exists, but his fears and his goals make sense to me.
