There are some good points in here but I wish they had made a better connection to how our approach to idealism has changed.

That's depressingly high. I'm not sure it's just the economic anxiety, I think it's just racism. I worry that it has such a young male appeal.

They're doing just fine.

This would be a big step that I wholeheartedly support.

Not the most solid evidence, but seems like the sort of thing that could build a case. In any other campaign even the whiff of this would result in a resignation.

Eighth "500-year" rainstorm in the last year.

This voice isn't going away even after he loses.

This is a really good point. I was just trying to make this point at work!

The ways he is an atypical candidate who appeals to a certain racist slice of the country also means he doesn't follow the usual rules of campaigning, to his detriment. I'm okay with that.

I guess a race against the clock without 8 simultaneous lanes would be less interesting.

Love this piece. It's all about mish-mash nostalgia!

It wasn't until 🎮🐊 that I realized how bad Twitter is for non-white-dude users.

Before that August night, I was innocent in all the ways you expect a sheltered suburban kid to be. But then four white police officers changed everything.

The dirtiness does ruin my impression of some episodes but they're surprisingly positive on some episodes I used to ignore.

It is scary that it's more acceptable, but on the other hand, these voices have always been here.

I still don't understand how Democrats failed so badly at critical local offices. Something about concentration in cities?

Interesting take, that focusing on invalidating Obama lost control of their party.

Unfortunately I think this only increases his appeal with his core constituency.

I'm surprised displacement would be so heavily regulated.

Short: way easier to systematically disenfranchise than it is to fake votes.

This is hard to read because I think we should have a different electoral system; in the meantime I'll use my primary votes to direct the parties as best I can.

The man has made an art of it.

This is fine.

The way they play with tense just works.

A "big get" and hits hard on point that Trump is easily manipulated.

It us.

Some details on how our system would work, and examples of how it's just people.

It's terrible that we still think we need such weapons.

Great piece on raising daughters amid restrictive gender roles from a sitting President.

Fear of being treated as black.
