• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨dear republicans, what's the point of alienating every single ally of the US?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This is a good steel man response, very much like Facebook posts I have seen lately. It’s really sad how much the right has abandoned listening to experts and just assuming we can apply “common sense” answers to fix problems that are complicated.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why does it seem most people, mainly conservatives, against Trans people? Unless I am wrong I never heard of one shooting up a school church or whatever. The ones I have met have been pretty cool.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This aligns with what I have heard from folks I know in that world. Fear motivated by exaggerating one off and isolated incidents. The information silos in the conservative world (especially news) is frightening.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Boeing’s strike ends after machinists approve new labor contract with 38% wage increases⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I had thought that they were going after more retirement benefits, only thing I saw in the article was a $ 5k 401k contribution. The comments didn’t make sense calling this deal something that would help them to “retire with dignity” whatever that means. Would have been cool (but next to impossible) if they would have gotten back some sort of pension.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Starfish memory⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  My 4 year old’s memory ability is all over the place. One day forgets mid sentence what he was talking about about or can’t remember if he is wearing pants, then later says, “remember 3 months ago when you promised me a Popsicle” or repeats verbatim the theme song for some random show.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Duracell PowerCheck: A genius idea which didn't last long⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I always worried that it was a vampire draw on the battery and made the waste problem of batteries worse. Open to being wrong though
