What the hell was that?
Fifty years later we remained consumed with this ethos. We remain obsessed with preventing the state from doing bad things—even as our tools are now mainly used to prevent good things. Environmental laws are leveraged to delay or deny green energy construction. Community feedback is used to block dense housing in rich neighborhoods. Our elected officials prioritize communicating that they have "the right politics" over actually getting anything done. We are all talk, no action.

I had a 3 1/2 hour Amtrak today that was delayed by 2 hours. With all that time to myself I ended up binging on election coverage all day. I would not recommend this. It's the psychological equivalent of Homer Simpson staying up all night eating all 64 slices of american cheese. I can't believe we still have another month of this election.

Battling medical debt and unpaid bills from their family farm, Wayne and Sara Greier thought they had a chance to start over when they signed a lease to lend their farmland to a $150 million solar project. Solar company Alpin Sun’s proposal would have erased their financial hardship. Instead, it became the target of a conservative culture war that turned the Greiers into social pariahs and ended with a solar ban in their ruby red northwest Ohio community. “We’re absolutely hated here. They surrounded our house with signs. Our kids got harassed at school,” Wayne Greier said of Green Township, a community that voted for Donald Trump by 45 points. “I got called a liberal. They kept asking: ‘When did you turn into a liberal? You’ve never been liberal. Why do you want green energy?’”

Kent Brockman saying democracy doesn't work
If I deny his attempts at closeness by leaving or setting a boundary, he could feel frustrated, rejected, or ashamed. If he doesn’t know how to recognize or manage those feelings, he’s likely to experience them as anger. And then I’m a solo woman stuck in a forest with an angry man, which is exactly what women are most afraid of.
