Lol my home district elected the 25 year old with no experience. Hey, at least he’s hot. nytimes.com/interactive/20…
Welcome to Congress
I am very embarrassed for my homeland, please forgive us
You guys mistake “no experience” for “no political experience.” Dude has barely even held a job.
But hey at least he’s hot Image
You guys I don’t care about the fucking acronym. Focus on the part where HE’S NEVER HAD A JOB.

The thing that is so frustrating to me about the NPR-style post-election analysis that I’m listening to right now is that they seem to think there can only be one single explanation for Trump’s over-performance.
That explanation—surprise—is bigotry. It’s racist voters, it’s sexist voters and it’s so obvious that there’s no other explanation worth exploring. The end.
Of course, they ignore that Trump appears for have done quite well among minorities compared to previous GOP candidates. They ignore the rioting/looting that hit cities across the US, they ignore that people (including POC) care about things like taxes & public safety & jobs.

Re: Harris’s equity speech, @jessesingal and I disagree on this and here’s why:
Equity sounds like a good thing. It sounds like equality+, and the idea that everyone gets exactly what they need to succeed is a nice vision of the world.
But what equity means in practice is, yes, equality of outcome, as @BretWeinstein & @ConceptualJames argue. Now, as for what this means in practice, let’s look at the Seattle Public Schools’ equity agenda, which I wrote about here: thestranger.com/slog/2019/12/0…

I really appreciate all the politicians and reporters connecting the wildfires to climate change... but maybe we should also talk about forest management a bit more?
It’s well-established that a century of wildfire suppression has turned western forests in tinderboxes, as my old colleague @leddder wrote when we went through this in 2018. thestranger.com/slog/2018/08/1…
Obviously longer, hotter, drier summers exacerbates wildfire... but climate change can’t be fixed overnight, while controlled burns and other evidence-based fire management techniques could make a difference now. Use good fire to prevent bad fire. propublica.org/article/they-k…

I’m a liberal who has been on far more conservative podcasts and radio shows then liberal ones in the last few years. Why? Because I’m never invited on to liberal shows. That’s fine—invite who you want—but it’s pretty telling about the state of the media right now.
I’ve (reportedly) been blacklisted from my local NPR station, which is kind of odd considering I got my start in public radio and listen to it for about 20 hours a day. But conservatives—who I actually disagree with!—are more than willing to speak with me.
Speaking of which, I had a very fine conversation with @bdomenech today that will air next week.

There are plenty of resources for people who don’t agree with the Robin DiAngelo theory of anti-racism, and not just from people who are white and fragile. Some resources for your book club/HR department/Facebook group/etc:
Kelefa Sanneh in the New Yorker newyorker.com/magazine/2019/…
John McWhorter in the Atlantic theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…

The Post finally breaks something newsworthy washingtonpost.com/local/social-i…
BREAKING: Woman No One Has Ever Heard of Commits Microagression Two Years Ago
This woman was fired because the Washington Post decided an offensive Halloween costume (for which she was already humiliated) is national news. Way to speak truth to power.
