@mcfate 👍

@mcfate I don't want them to pretend he doesn't exist. I want them to cover him with fewer news cycles, so we can actually spend time on things that matter instead of watching the same train wreck everyday, with the same people saying the same things about it as it unfolds.

@mcfate It's not about upsetting people, it's about optics. There's a profound problem with the split-screen broadcast news cycles that put something crazy on one side of the screen, and commentary on the other side of the screen as if they have equal weight. When you amplify crazy voices, you help spread crazy opinions.

@mcfate he won't fade into glorious irrelevance until his flailing stops driving news cycles. I've long held that he'd have been gone from public discourse long ago if we simply didn't cover his speeches.

@mcfate hey, I agree with you. Nobody would accuse the man of having a GOOD (or even workable) plan. I'm just not going to be surprised when he makes this kind of claim in a week or so.

@mcfate he only announced too early if the presidency was his goal. I think he's hoping to jumble up the indictment train somehow with the hypothetical power of his canidacy. Hopefully in vain...

@folkmagifili reincarnation confuses me, I guess. I don't remember past lives if I had them, which feels the same as it would if I didn't. And any future life won't remember this one. So, as a thought experiment, how is that different from living just the once? I mean no disrespect, it's just a mind bending concept for me.

@folkmagifili if we get to start the game of life over, but it wipes the save file clean every time, is that really any different than death from the perspective of your current life?

@danialexis That's great context, thank you! I haven't really tested that part of it yet. Honestly, it didn't occur to me to simulate the submission phase to check for that kind of thing. Will rectify. Definitely don't want to make a manuscript memorable for the wrong reasons!

Quick question: do folks here like Scrivener? I'm almost at the end of the trial, and I'm still torn on whether I want to pay for it. Are there other things I should try first that are similar? #cosowriters

@artbyktk that looks delightful!

@B4itsOverU so...you're demanding a recount of the weekend?

@Dreaw404 I didn't know #cosocooking was a thing. Thank you!

In Atlanta, there are three attractions right next to each other. Close enough together to share a common courtyard. One is the aquarium, line out the door. One is the Coke museum and bottling tour, line out the door. One is the museum of human and civil rights, doors wide open, completely ignored. I hate what that says about this country.

@wordworkin the hashtag you seek is #dogsofcoso

@EnochianEntropy who would take it?
