👀 Sen. Angus King, a fiscal hawk, says Biden should consider raising debt limit with 14A.

“I think there's some very strong legal arguments. The 14th amendment is pretty explicit” about president enforcing spending laws

Says it’d be “a good thing” to nuke debt limit forever

What’s in this supposedly commonsense bill McCarthy is demanding in exchange for not destroying the global economy?
Here’s my handy guide, for those interested in the substance of the legislation and not just political gamesmanship. 🧵

One of the other organizers of this Pride Night event is Christopher St West, which puts on @lapride. It'll be interesting to see if CSW is still willing to participate, now that The Dodgers have blocked one of the most prominent queer charities in the world from attending.

We got a preview of this during McCarthy’s disaster of Speaker vote in January. He doesn’t know how many votes he has on what. That’s what makes this “negotiating” rudderless.

How do you deal with someone who cannot deliver passage? Clean bill needs 5. He can’t pass without Dems

An honor just to be nominated.

@AOC ("Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez") wrote:

Here’s the deal: McCarthy has nowhere near the votes for a deal and therefore cannot negotiate debt ceiling.

You need 218 votes. GOP has maybe ~150. They will need anywhere from 50-100 House Dems to pass anything.

Dems have 213 votes for a clean bill & just need to pick up 5.

Apropos of, well, everything, I am sick of the idea that only conservatives/the right value "community".

Community is everywhere! In big cities and small villages, in churches and football teams and knitting circles and kink clubs and parents associations and volunteer groups

I wouldn't choose it today, but when Redux first came out, the docs were a great case study in explaining internals, architecture, and usage of a library at the same time in a way that complements each other. Sadly those docs are gone and the new stuff isn't as effective

A long time ago, I saw there was a MeetUp for Biohackers, and I thought: huh, maybe that’ll be interesting. So I went, and it was a handful of people and nobody was really talking until one guy said “I take cold showers” and a few people nodded and that was kind of it.

This episode, which is about a friend coming to visit and revealing a surprising queer detail about themselves, was written by Jeffrey Duteil ... who also happened to write the episode of The Golden Girls where Dorothy's lesbian friend Jean comes to visit. He does good work!

@MattBaume ("Matt Baume") replied to a tweet by @MattBaume:

It's a fun episode (my favorite part is how Ru's so tall the camera has to widen out until you can see the top of the set). And there's one more neat little detail, hidden in the credits ...
