I made one (1) donation to Kamala Harris in 2024 and I’ve been spammed by every random asshole’s campaign for money ever since. Never donating again
Once mass spam texts were made legal, younger donors vanished, leaving a grassroots fundraising machine that subsists on squeezing vulnerable seniors, some of whom give hundreds of times a day. It’s a horrific model. Consultants get generationally wealthy, and the party hollows out its future.
@gelliottmorris.com are there any plans to add a “how the odds have changed over time” to the house/senate forecasts? It would be nice to see how things have shifted
Guy who’s lost every election he’s run in:
I say this with no ill will or animosity: if you hate the Democratic Party, then please don’t run for our nomination. Don’t use our resources. Don’t rely on our volunteers. Don’t use our infrastructure. Don’t ask Democrats to invest their time, money, and energy in your campaign.

“You’re watching ads you broke bitch! Kill yourself!” just found a permanent place in my lexicon
"When one fed attempted to blow off the crowd by visibly watching basketball highlights on his phone, a protester shouted “You’re watching ads, you broke bitch! Kill yourself!” The federal agent returned to his room shortly thereafter." crimethinc.com/2026/01/27/t...
RUN THE GODDAMNED BALL.
The killing of Alex Pretti and the grotesque lying was an overreach by the administration. They've paid a price and had to pull back a bit. But it's when there's some disarray that the democratic opposition needs to intensify the offensive, and turn a marginal tactical success into a major victory.
Snakes on a Plane at the movie theater at Florida State was a religious experience
Raising the always fun question: What are your most memorable theater-going experiences? Mine also include The Matrix, Blair Witch, and being way too stoned in Belgium when Fellowship of the Ring was sold out so we sat in the back row for Mulholland Drive instead.
