I think there's some truth to this. Specifically, a lot of people are sort of reflexively conservative. That is, they don't like change. If zohran gets free bus fare in, a lot of people who fight it now will fight to keep it.

I think some famous conservative said something once about how they can't let social programs get in because people like them too much.

He could use some of that money for more immediate good. Start paying off people's school debt. Build housing. Whatever.

I really dislike the tone that chatgpt writes in.

Chlorine gas poisoning is NOT the vibe we're going for with this one. Let's file that one in the Woopsy Bads file!"

Just.. ugh.

the nation will see that democratic socialism will get them what they were promised.

What's that old saying like "none are so blind as those who will not see"? I feel like people are so emotionally invested in "socialism bad, democrats bad" that it's going to be hard for them to accept contradicting that.

I feel the same, but tell myself that for many people "DnD" is a stand-in for any sort of imagination game. Like people say "kleenex" for tissue or "xerox" for copy.

Yeah I think that's one of the things people that don't always get.

Like you walk down the street and no one's going to say hi to you, or engage with you much at all. People think that means we're unfriendly. No, it's more that we see ten thousand people every day and there's no way to engage with all of them. Some of them don't even have a shared language.

But if someone needs help? People step up. I saw a lady trip and fall down the stairs at the subway and a whole lot of people fake running over to make sure she was okay. Bike accident? Lots of people that had been in the background suddenly were helping.

People aren't perfect. I saw a guy screaming at a woman he was with and no one stepped in, but I like to think there's a line past which more people would intervene.

People often say like "You can't just shoot trump, you'll make him a martyr and hyper energize his base!" I don't know if that's true. I like to think that if Zohran was assassinated, people would push harder for his vision and legacy. But a lot of people are also kind of just.. not all the way here.

Is that a leather jacket with a hood, or a jacket on top of a thin hoodie?

I played the shit out of bubble bobble as a 3 year old. It has passwords for saves, which was tricky because none of me and the other neighborhood kids could read. It's a great game, though.

There's one level like a third of the way through that baffled us for weeks. Still hard, as an adult. Good fun, though. Lots of "go go go go get it go go go oooh no dang." moments.

That feels on brand for conservatives

Someone else posted this, but I like the idea that Zohran's response should be "No means no, Cuomo"

Ok, I understand what you meant better. Thanks for explaining further.
