The latest Zogby poll has a crazy gender gap among young voters - 74%??!!! A woman friend commented “that’s a lot of guys who aren’t going to get laid”

Like many profs I re-use programming assignments with minor mods. Googling shows a tutoring outfit selling solutions to my current lab for $35, and I bought it to check for cheating. I got the original assignment files with no solution. Funny, I still feel ripped off.

In 1981, a year before I went off to college, the total bill (before finaid) at the priciest colleges was $10,000. The median household income was $22,390. Tuition and fees at Northeastern this year are $86K; median income is $80K. This is f*cked up.

MAGA dudes would erupt if the govt confiscated all their AR-15s. They don’t seem to realize that Dobbs is a similar but much worse deprivation of rights, affecting someone’s body and life rather than their hobby.

Folks who want to vote for Jill Stein because Harris wasn't selected "democratically" might want to look more closely at how Stein won the Green nomination. There was one state-run Green primary, in California; Stein got 15,801 votes yielding 59 delegates. 1/2

In 12 states they held invite-only email primaries, where she got 796 votes yielding 82 delegates. (compare CA, 59 delegates / 16K votes to UT, 4 delegates / 5 votes) Another 7 states awarded her a total of 87 delegates with no primary-like vote. How democratic is that? 2/2

I'm blown away by the fact that most people have moved on from the police failure when my son, his classmates, and teachers were killed at Robb Elementary in Uvalde on May 24'th 2022. 376 officers waited outside for 77 minutes!!! Share this if you haven't moved on!

I still don't understand why the Secret Service opened fire on a guy just trying to exercise his second amendment rights next to Trump's favorite golf course

If Kamala is elected she will be the first woman president. She will also be the first Black woman president. When folks who are not Black say “she’ll be the first black woman president”, I fear a lot of women who are not Black feel dismissed.

Wharton professor here! Here are the Penn Wharton Budget Model estimates: — Harris’ proposal increases the deficit by $1.2 trillion, with low- and middle income households benefiting disproportionately. — Trump’s proposal increases the deficit by $5.8 trillion. Details below 👇

Turning Point Action (the outsourcer for Trump's GOTV) is recruiting remote volunteers, each assigned to "chase" 100 GOP voters and make sure they vote. It would be a shame if they got a bunch of unmotivated volunteers. cdn.tpaction.com/be/2024/08/…

@RachelBitecofer @ProjectLincoln someone needs to do an anti-Trump ad where a series of early-20s bros complain about having to pay child support and blame it on Dobbs

It should be possible to find some young guys paying child support in FL due to the 15-week ban who would be willing to be in an ad. I’m sure there are folks who could come up with a list of young men with recent support orders, after which it’s just a matter of recruiting.

The Lincoln Project did an admirable job of attacking Trump and helping Biden get elected in 2020, and they got essentially 0 policy concessions. They're still fighting the good fight in 24 and at some point they'll start getting listened to, because that's how you play the game

I want to start a rumor that there was an AR-15 vending machine at the RNC, but the AI image sites I tried won’t draw one for me :-( In the process I discovered that ammo vending machines are real, and legal in (of course) Texas. #AR15vendingmachine
