The source used polled 1,472 registered voters. Yep, that seems *super* representative. *Rolls eyes* 

*STANDING OVATION* 

But the trade off of the expediency of the New Deal and the Great Society policies was that it cut out a specific portion of the population; it benefited white people, and pretty much no one else. What kind of trade-off on that level would the progressive wing be willing to make to get something like M4All? The…

I am completely dumbfounded how people could simultaneously say that:
1) this hearing was a waste of time because everything here was already known 2) impeachment hearings should happen, while acknowledging impeachment itself isn’t going to happen because we don’t control the Senate

The impeachment hearings are going…

That’s actually not my point at all. I could care less about the purity tests you mentioned. But clearly there are plenty of people on the left who DO care about them, such as this very site!, and will *destroy* any candidate who doesn’t pass them. Yet these exact same people are completely fine with giving Williamson…

Sanders’ press secretary jumping in to defend her is the weirdest part of the whole thing for me. Putting aside the need to clap back at a comedian making jokes (seems a tad overly sensitive), why are you doing it for someone who isn’t even your candidate, and aside from a few touch points, doesn’t even seem anywhere…

No, her response really wasn’t that good. She’s a complete joke of a candidate. She’s not automatically a “progressive” to cheer for just because of her position on reparations, when she breaks the cardinal rule around taking PAC money and big dollar fundraisers and makes the kind of comments on weight and depression…

I completely understand and respect your logic that Pelosi is making a miscalculation of which side (progressives vs Blue Dogs) is more popular, and the polls certainly suggest you’re right! However, I just cannot wrap my head around how the polls could be true, and yet Trump/the Republicans are still as popular as…

No, you’re right, Chapo/RS seem to be a super online thing. Activists I’ve met out in the field, if they listen to political podcasts frequently, seem to stick with “strategy” ones or “news in the day in this particular justice cliche” kinda thing. I’ve managed through a handful of Chapo podcasts, and they seem sort…

Tell me more about your thoughts on My Favorite Murder. I’ve never listened but I know it has a huge following. What’s been your experience?

I would deeply love to not care about this, but Red Scare and Chapo House are *huge* on Twitter if you even slightly try to engage in leftist discourse. It is... startling, to say the least, to get called a centrist neoliberal white feminist shrill by people who espouse the viewpoint that white supremacy isn’t really…

Trade the “questionable” offsides call with the “questionable” penalty kick, so all told it comes out pretty even. 

It’s interesting, cause now all the newest houses have the laundry rooms on the same floor as the bedrooms (so if it’s a 2 story, the laundry room is on the 2nd floor.) Part of me wants to rebel about how this is WASTEFUL and DUMB but it really DOES make sense to have the washing machine where all the actual…

Lots of the suburbs are also building in dog parks (yay!) with lots of beautiful, natural elements and green space (woo!), but that means tracking lots of, well, mud into the house when you get back from the dog park. My current house doesn’t have a mud room, and it sucks hard in the spring/fall when there’s still mud…

“And seriously...who’s putting mud rooms in suburban houses?” 

See, THAT makes a lot more sense, and your comment is way more interesting than the article. As an older millennial myself, I agree, the culture/food/walkability is the sell, not strictly the city living itself. A lot of suburbs around my city (Minneapolis) are going hard into adding sidewalks, restaurants, smaller…

Yes, I’m in Minneapolis too, and they are *everywhere*! They’re also building one close by my work up in Blaine (a suburb for the non-locals) and a single apartment is going for $1500/month. It’s bizarre. 

Yes. Still confused what the hell the point of this was.

“for Clinton more then Clinton people voted for Obama over McCain.”

*Sigh* Also, can we please stop spreading this lie? The figure that keeps getting cited as “more Clinton supporters voted for McCain over Obama” was from right around the convention. According to exit polls on Election Day, McCain won only about 10% of…

I am so confused by the tone of this article. Millenials are “uncool” because they’re being priced out of big cities, and are going to the suburbs? But I thought that would be better because then they could freaking stop gentrifying everything in sight. Also, what’s so wrong with a mud room? Why do people hate the…
