Last night, Maine Dems voted for a man with a Nazi SS symbol tattooed on his chest, has been accused of abusing women, and blamed victims of sexual assault rather than perpetrators.
Even though other Democrats were on the ballot, they chose to support this monster.
Democrat Rep. Madeleine Dean on Graham Platner,
"It's so distressing. All of the stories that are coming out, and there are more and more, it seems, by the hour."
As a woman it is devastating for me to watch a bunch of so called progressives forgive the most disgusting actions of a white male candidate after picking apart the laughter of a brilliant and qualified Black woman.
@goodreads Bad Blood by John Carreyrou. The only other book I read in May was East of Eden, which was an easy and absorbing read with big, big problems.
I just keep going back to the amount of money spent on stuff like this, or on a war in Iran no one can coherently explain, by an administration that felt it was absolutely urgent we defund lifesaving medical care for infants in some of the rougher places in the world
Kamala Harris warned everyone.
Hillary Clinton warned everyone.
Both were ignored and now the entire world is in imminent danger. I’ll never regret voting for them.
@MotherJones A large majority of female athletes welcome a once-and-done cheek swab to protect their sport from unfair competition. Evoking “Nazi” and “eugenics” sounds unhinged.
We are living in a profoundly unreasonable age. This novel was produced by facilitated communication, a thoroughly debunked technique. His mother wrote the book.
Woody Brown is non-speaking, autistic and a brilliant new novelist. I interviewed him, and he's bloody amazing. Would be great if you could share

John Fetterman's had a 108 pt drop in his net approval with PA Dems since 2023.
His net rating is -40 pt net approval with them.
His net popularity with his own party is worse than all senators who lost a primary this century.
There's no historical analog to his unpopularity.
@goodreads Book is generally better. I didn’t see Hamnet because I disliked the book. I won’t read Vineland because I disliked One Battle After Another (not a Pynchon fan anyway).
