What else am I supposed to call what’s in my peanut juice?

I live in DC, so my vote doesn't really matter. So I'll be leaving the president spot blank, and just voting for the most left non-incumbents I can on city council, ed board, etc etc.

There's been a long running issue about adding bike lanes to Connecticut ave in DC, which has a lot of retail and restaurants, and is also very busy traffic wise. I have seen every bad faith argument imaginable against them: it's bad for workers because less business, it's bad for workers because too much business, it will be bad for DC Metro because people will bike instead of taking the train, it's ableist, it's ageist, etc etc. I think the best one was that cyclists are more likely to die in a traffic collision than people in cars, adding the bike lanes will cause more traffic fatalities.

I'm just thinking of the way ebikes get framed as a luxury good, reserved only for the highest of income earners, when if we had the infrastructure to support them, they could replace countless car that are multiple times as expensive.

If you don’t want to be in student debt maybe you should consider working 30 hours a day. Dumb kids.

If this shit doesn’t convince libs that these states need just straight up military occupation then I don’t know what will. Long past time to finish reconstruction.
