In Marin County, There’s Trouble in Teslaville (Gift Article) Tesla’s sleek electric vehicles used to be a status symbol in liberal Mill Valley, Calif. Now, they are despised by many — including those who drive them.

Sure, dismantling government programs for the most desperate and needy is awkward, but have you seen the price of eggs? www.nytimes.com/2025/04/26/u...

This is Utah in case anyone’s wondering how pissed off people are. I have never seen anything like this.

You crumpled like a tissue. You obeyed in advance. You were too scared to fight. Resign your post.

Wait, @radiofreetom.bsky.social is stepping down from The Atlantic Daily? Was this known? How will I be able to wave my ipad at my wife all grumpy saying "You need to read this" without him?

Oh Carl Sagan. On the one hand, I’m glad he did not need to see what we became. On the other hand, he already saw what we were becoming.

“But how will you convince anyone you’re right if you don’t yell at them on Twitter any more??”

Since when has yelling at each other on Twitter ever changed anyone’s mind about anything.

Guys this isn’t an “Oh no, we told you so” situation. Everyone knew. They didn’t care.

People who voted for him didn’t care. Everyone saw Jan 6. He got re-elected anyway

I am wholly supportive of finding your people and your tribe and a safe space to share your whole self with them.

But what’s the endgame? If we and “they” do nothing but talk to each other, we choose to never recover the ability to have discourse and discussion.

There must be space for both.

Now, another takeaway from the election is this may be asymmetric between the left and the right, and that wouldn't surprise me at all if true.

You know, one of my big takeaways from this last election is that mobilization might not matter as much as we think it does. So many takes out there about "this is what they said, why didn't people vote for them" instead of "this is what they did and it doesn't match up with what they said".

"Questions about Bezos' timing and motives"

NPR, you answered your own question:

"officials from Bezos’ Blue Origin aerospace company met with Trump a few hours after the decision became public"

That's it. That's the answer. Late stage capitalism wins again.

Oh good good, a new social network so future-me can look over earlier posts and cringe. I've missed this so much.
