I hope you all are going to vote (or have voted).

I think Florida is done and just doesn't know it yet. There will be trillions in damages, and insurance companies will evacuate or suffer major loses. The costs of continuing to live there will be unsustainable. It may not be this storm that does it, or even any one storm, but that day is coming faster than expected.

Of course. Not only is he being trounced, but he is being trounced by a bi-racial woman.

And the message from young folks was clear: We told you he was too old to make it 4 years, and you didn't listen. We told you to reprimand Netanyahu, and you didn't listen. We told you "don't you dare nominate Joe for another 4 years", and you didn't listen. Now it's obvious to those willing to look that Joe is too old, and we told you to stop, and guess what, you didn't listen. We are outa here. #politics

And now, when he is clearly on the decline, both physically and cognitively, YOU ARE DOING IT AGAIN. (I should say, the voters I talked to were furious. They don't want to vote for Trump but they absolutely WILL NOT vote for Biden, and many are defecting to the Republicans). The lack of a firm hand on the Gaza situation stirred the pot long before the debate fiasco. They felt unheard, yet again! Then the hand was tipped on how dysfunctional Joe had become over the last 4 years. #politics

The answer was along the lines of the following... The dems don't listen. It's like they are deaf to intergenerational ideas and concerns. We (the young voters) told you 4 years ago, that Joe was too old, and we were told that he was a transitional president that would bridge to the next generation of leaders. That he was a healer that could restore comity to our politics. We were told that one-term president could do these things. #politics

Democrats have a problem that is largely unappreciated: young voters.Young voters are registering as Republicans in numbers that are shocking: even young women (the narrative that this is entirely a male phenomenon is mistaken.) I was at a youth engagement event recently and explored the question of "Why?"

If I was prepping Joe I would have told hem to take 20 seconds to say this in his opening: "I will not rebut my opponents statements tonight. I will use my rebuttal time to expand on my accomplishments relevant to the question and lay out my plan for the topic going forward. Know that everything that Donald says tonight will be lies. After the debate, fact checkers will verify this, and I choose not to waste time addressing these lies."

DRILL BABY, DRILL? Nah. I don't think so.... #ClimateChange

@arthurpendragon My last direct question to @Alfred was riff off of a question @MrGoat asked about a month ago. For some reason @Alfred hooked onto that. Weird.

Four new robins outside my office door. I have been watching mom protect them for weeks!

The problem for Durbin is simple: He wants to deal with SCOTUS, but doing so before the 2024 election would activate GOP voters to defend their court, and undermine democratic aspirations. #Politics #SCOTUS

Which icons could save the Biden camp if they joined up for a X-country tour to stump for Joe? Let's make a list. Low hanging fruit: Taylor Swift and Travis K.

The actuaries (the men and women who study risk and probabilities for breakfast) say we might be royally borked. #ClimateChange https://actuaries.org.uk/media/g1qevrfa/climate-scorpion.pdf

At +5C the reams of human suffering will be untold, as no bards will live to sing the song.

How do you feel about a 19% pay cut?

@Alfred Can you estimate how many instances of the HAL9001 architecture are currently running?
