All of the people who seem to spend most of their time outraged, how do they find the time? Man, I got shit to do.

If intuitive eating, then why not intuitive cracksmoking, intuitive heroin injectin’, and intuitive opioid pill poppin’? Makes about as much sense.

Accidentally losing weight again. I need to eat more. I am not intentionally eating too little, but I probably burn an extra few thousand calories a week now and haven’t compensated enough in my consumption.

Not a bad problem to have, but it’s impossible to gain muscle at a calorie deficit.

Can't emphasize this enough: teens are fed up with adults bullshit.

Strange time when young people have better political instincts and moral claims than almost any adults. It is of course because these young folks accurately realize they are going to face the consequences of decades of poor and directly-harmful adult decisions, while most of the adults will be dead by the time the full bill comes due.

Facing the prospect of a terrible life and early death sharpens one’s mind a bit.

at #NatSec2020. Ideas of electoral China messaging are incoherent or conspicuously absent so far. Yes, wider trade policy is a mess, but w China, if not tariffs, then what? How else do we deal with a predatory trade partner?

Exactly. Tariffs are just a tool. Sometimes, they are useful and helpful, depending on your goals. Sometimes they are not. Like anything, they are not an unalloyed evil or an unqualified good. As with nearly everyone, Democrats here lack nuance and are just fighting for their (ridiculous) team goals, absent any real plan.

Free trade ideology declares that all tariffs are always bad all the time. This as noted is an ideology and does not match the actual world. Because the Dems are good little neoliberals, they must believe this whether it is true or not.
