Ugh I have no idea how to write #introductions / #intros. Why is everything so difficult? It feels the same way when I have to write a cover letter... 😕 😒 😅

OK, I am a software engineer? Interested in interpersonal relationships and future and AI and speculative fiction? Unable to create art or to have a physical exercise but able to chat on the internets from the comfort of my couch (which is especially comfortable when my spouse is there)?

Thinking that Warren is “too much,” “nasty,” and “mean” because she is assertive, aggressive, dominant, and defending women is how we
ended up with Trump.

Hey NBC, you can't just ignore Elizabeth Warren. She's not Matt Lauer's history of sexual harassment https://twitter.com/Newsweek/status/1229991561481654272

bigoted jokes are:
- a way for bigots to signal their views/probe for allies while having a defense against consequences
- often uncomfortable or intimidating for the people targeted

by making these jokes you:
- provide cover for bigots
- help alienate & intimidate the targets

Sure lesbian sex is great but have you tried sitting next to your crush while every nerve in your body is tightly attuned to exactly how much of their thigh is touching your thigh at any given moment and how much more of their thigh could touch your thigh perhaps soon maybe

Never trust a white person who uses "woke" sarcastically/dismissively

"Well see I'm only using it to talk about people who are *too* woke—" No. Too late. Fuck off forever

From the headline I immediately imagined an international coalition of lesbians piloting giant mecha and I do not wish to be disabused of this. https://twitter.com/RichardTol/status/1227664066241605632

Elizabeth Warren is who you vote for if you like Bernie Sanders’s policy but actually want it enacted.

Reminder: there is no need for TV producers to show “both sides of the argument”, when one side of the “argument” is people saying a minority group shouldn’t exist and the other side is them just existing. It’s never an argument, it’s a hate campaign. https://twitter.com/BBCNewsnight/status/1226977924185821184

A world where Klobuchar and Pete are above Warren is trash. No thank you to all of this.

When I spoke with Warren, I was struck by how she doesn't talk about this campaign as if it's about her. It's all about the ideas.

I asked her how she would feel if Sanders or Buttigieg won the nomination and adopted her plans, and this is what she said:

Woman goes to doctor, says she’s depressed. Doctor says, “the great clown Pagliacci is in town. Go see him. That’ll cheer you up.” Woman begins to cry. “But doctor”, she says, “Pagliacci is my deadname”
