"In your head" to normal people literally means "Not real". To a psychologically non-normal person, it's where the unyielding characteristics that make us different are. Language shapes how we think. See the problem?

Don't follow me. I just do this for private therapy. No one's supposed to be paying attention. It's creepy.

@rudepundit Ds *could* have gotten leverage by accusing the rightwingnuts of being patsies of a hostile foreign power. Again.

But to your specific question, we would not have, because that would have been unseemly and not bipartisan.

@JuliusGoat I’m not very good at anticipating how my words will be taken, so maybe I should just stfu, but a discouraging aspect of this story is that he took the quote down.

@ct_bergstrom to be fair, some species are racist assholes. Then there are capybaras.

@rudepundit misread as “grow” and was then disappointed

@JuliusGoat forced-pregnancy movement has relentlessly pushed hundreds of different tactics and strategies at every level for decades. Push out requirements for liability insurance in cities, counties, states, federal, facilitate lawsuits against gun owners, let the insurance companies trim the market down. Free market!

@drvolts "At some point in time" in the CEO quote seems to be something people aren't paying attention to.

Specifically, the likelihood that "when there aren't any more gas stations" or "sales of ICE vehicles are banned or punitively taxed" is that point in time.

@notjustbikes @CaptainJanegay let I live in a 250-year-old blue collar Republican-voting Massachusetts town full of guys with a pickup, Home Depot account, and nowhere to put their tradesman waste. If you want to see libertarian converts to socialism, attend the town meetings voting on moving town trash pickup from unlimited curb pickup to pay-per-bag.

@drvolts Only males are going in that alpha male's mouth. Sorry, I vote advanced sarcasm. Grammar's too good for sincerity at that level.
