The fact that there are supposedly serious people who still can't admit that Biden won legitimately and that the election wasn't stolen is sad.

This Bills team gave me and a lot other folks a lot of joy during a difficult time. This didn't end the way I wished. But it's the most joy I had as a Bills fan since I really knew what football was. This team is not done. We'll be back :).

I'm consistently amazed (not really) when people who speak for a vocal minority opinion claim to be speaking for a silent majority opinion.

"The Covid-19 news is bad, but there's room for optimism" For example, we're hitting new highs in vaccines given out with many more on the way.

QAnon is scary, but the actual % of QAnon believers is below 10%. For comparison, it's less than the % who falsely think we faked the moon landing. (The % who falsely think Obama was born outside the U.S. was also higher at 10%-20%)

@ForecasterEnten  It's also quite clear to me from folks I speak to in every day conversation that much of this optimistic news hasn't really reached them. Again, IDK what normal is (cc @mattyglesias  and others), but folks I don't think realize what we're close to.

A $15 minimum wage passed in Florida with 61% of the vote in 2020. Biden got just 48% of the vote in the same Florida election.

I have a family member who is 65+ and lives in Northern Alabama. Can't get her an appointment right now there. If she lived in NYC, she'd have an appointment by Monday.

This AM's twitter discourse lines up very well with what the polling on the minimum wage has generally shown. A $15 minimum wage is quite popular and does well with a lot of groups Dems have struggled with.
