Specifically that republican guy who was like goddamnit my kids keep seeing all these anti trans ads and now I have to explain it to them! (I am in no way saying I feel bad for this guy)

I am ready for policy solutions to make the web usable again

I live in California and have seen the same anti-proposition 40 (Billionaire Tax) ad run 3 times a row during multiple commercial breaks during the same program

Same thought process listening to NPR on the road. Musk is spending 450m, Bloomberg 80m. Seems like a way to rally folks against Cit Unitd, “you won’t have to hear political crap during baseball games, only Sid Sweeney’s boobs”

who knows if it'll help, but i'm reflexively in favor of linking Paxton to the loathsome homunculus white nationalist trillionaire who's been the shadow president, is throwing a billion into Skydance, and is twiddling the knobs to cripple Ukraine's defense against Russia

i would love to see data on this but i think we have basically passed the event horizon where political ads can influence too many people. i think at this point people are fully aware of how easy it is to lie in them and they just become white noise at a certain point but idk

I've seen more ads for races in other states this year during sports broadcasts than I ever have before

This is another way late money, especially, is worth so much less than early money: just lighting money on fire at this point Saw a (unsurprisingly evidence-light) post recently from Charlie Cook on the overall subject
