retiring around age 65, while still lucid, in year advantageous for incumbent party? Gary peters may actually be GOATed for this. Boomer politicians never do this!.
🚨SCOOP: @SenGaryPeters tells me he won’t run for reelection, leaving his seat in battleground Michigan up for grabs in '26 #MISen .

@toaster_imback sorry but if the corporate lip service "we are okay with gay people 🏳️🌈" is enough to cause conservatives to mald there's something deeper wrong with them. there's so much backlash to so little. i'd blame the people actually getting butthurt over nothing.

@TheRealFitzroy people find it weird and off-putting because they find queer people weird and off-putting. that’s why it’s bleak.

I DID IT! Still scraping data, will update and improve with time :)
Has there ever been a heat map or some type of map made that shows specifically where on the Amtrak system the delays occur?. I.E. The Empire corridor, the second you leave Schenectady and merge onto CSX there's always issues.

@yhdistyminen He only moved because the developers forced him to after he assaulted a construction worker. I think assaulting construction workers pretty clear cut makes him a NIMBY.

@LinkofSunshine Basil if you grew up in bumfuck nowhere midwest and knew as many non college educated white people as I did you would AGREE it should require a degree.

I haven’t heard a single person I know irl who touches grass say Biden should stay in. It came up at work to universal disappointment.
My dad is the typical MSNBC dad. Supported Joe way back in the 2019 primary days. He was so upset by the debate & Joes response to it that he stopped all donations and said he will “vote for Joe but I no longer support Joe”. Anecdotal obv but “its just the media” is colossal cope.

@JosephMamaX presidential midterms usually are kind to the opposition party. plus the voters in midterms are more likely to be the college-educated voters that are now mostly dems.

this inspired me to look at the source code for the amtrak "track your train" map. whoever is writing comments on this, mood

@NolanSwift22 the beltway isn’t in DC either! (except like 600 feet of it) I’m more interested in comparing metro area size!.

@TheRealFitzroy nobody would find it weird if a white person was in a Toyota commercial, but if it was a gay couple, many would.

@ianjhurst the metro goes out arguably too far! (should be commuter rail / s bahn instead). at the end of the day, nobody is forcing people to live in Manassas or Leesburg. these places have excellent commuter buses anyways. The metro is great in the city.

@nikicaga what’s bleak is that, anecdotally, a lot of this is top down. I used to work with some cops, that were frustrated the chief wouldn’t let them do more traffic enforcement and assisting on calls. They were bored. Leadership didn’t want to risk the controversy.

@JosephMamaX it's not a given, but still very much the most likely outcome. not absurd at all to say they're favored. the last time the president's party gained seats in the house during a midterm was *2002*. for the senate it happened in 2022 - but that's due to education polarization.

@plum_zach I hope he finds the help he needs. Alcoholism is a disease and recovery is possible.

@GunHeritage the further you are from the freeways, rhe *safer* it generally becomes. my neighborhood is super quiet, crime is generally not a concern. The fear mongering is crazy to hear after actually living here.

@KatoreaKastorae @vanillaopinions I asked about this at the DC DMV (it was awkward as hell) and their system won’t let you select “yes” for a woman, it actually just skips asking about it.

@MitchATreadwell it started organically. it’s at risk of being co-opted though, should be used sparingly officially.
