Putting aside the question of if she would win, the answer to IF she will run is pretty obvious. If she doesn't run, she will almost certainly be the VP nominee of whatever empty-shirt white guy survives the primary. She's on the ticket either way, so why run for Senate?

Conservative men are apparently pretending to be liberal and then "coming out" to their progressive girlfriends after dating for months

there is a point here i want to amplify. the free speech defenders of the mainstream seem to have no awareness that actual free speech is often more fractious and destabilizing than civil and respectful. a society where speech is genuinely free isn’t the deferential space they want it to be.

DO NOT participate in #blueskyblackout2025 I'm nsfw artist and other nsfw artists are asking you to SHOUT! Bsky wants to censor us so the worst thing we can do is censor ourselves! Publicly shame them, use the feedback button, and post about it using the tag #bskycensorship Silence is compliance!

I'm torn because, as an alternate history buff, I like a cover like that or what Matt described a lot. BUT, World War Z, and the Good War both have extremely simple covers. At most I'd want to add an American flag in tatters to the backdrop.

#SST25 8 - Staging cheap mans space navy - those countries that cant afford proper space navies have to rely on earth-launched LEO interceptors for their space capabilities

a spaceplane flying high in space above the earth. It has just detached its booster. It is illuminated by the first rays of sunlight, with the sun just about to rise above the horizon.

No. This was just an exercise in Alternate History. Hitler admired America's horrifying treatment of native peoples, but that's about it.

I love it when #alternatehistory hits that perfect sweet spot between absurdity and plausibility.
