Notes

Instead of trying to show the bigots that their genes do not make them superior, we should focus on a phenomenon I’ve noticed:

Bigotry is correlated with incompetence.

The ol’ striosomes are taking a break today.

That Tom Cotton and Marjorie Taylor Greene can be elected to national leadership unopposed highlights how badly we need proper multiparty democracy in the US.

Four years ago I wryly noted that the reported odds of Clinton winning were similar to surviving Russian roulette. Favorable, but not so much that I was comfortable with the gun held to our head.

Today the reported odds for Biden winning are better. I’m still not comfortable.

A justice of the Supreme Court doesn’t know how elections work. and in some states the USPS is now so slow it’s already too late to mail in your vote. This is fine.
