Everybody thought Damon was playing the cool, fun astronaut from "The Martian," but he was actually playing the evil astronaut from "Interstellar" who summons the crew to a death trap. https://t.co/z0i21lLADl — PolitiTweet.org

@edzitron The clever-annoying mechanic with Fire Giant (apart from his rolling bullshit) is that he rips off the vulnerable leg for phase two, so nothing you do can inflict as much damage. — PolitiTweet.org

David Weigel @daveweigel

@edzitron If you summon in that fight, you have to get off the horse, so the game basically creates a "hard" mode and a "less hard but different" mode. — PolitiTweet.org

David Weigel @daveweigel

@edzitron How ashamed should we be of admitting our summons strategies? Here was how I beat Fire Giant: 1) Got gud at racing around him on Torrent and knocked out his first phase. 2) When he hit second phase, summon Iron Fist Alexander (near the fog gate) and team up w him. — PolitiTweet.org

@cushbomb @ryanlcooper Yeah, and she doesn't suggest otherwise in the tweet. It's not an issue that gets solved by "vote harder. May be easier to imagine state nullification, or secession, than a conservative SCOTUS justice being as stupid as Ginsburg and swinging the court back. — PolitiTweet.org

David Weigel @daveweigel

@ChrisHartline Yes, along with promoting their own popular views and highlighting it when Dems endorse "no limits." But if a Dem memo said - here are our arguments on trans sports, and we also recommend you change the subject - I'd highlight that! — PolitiTweet.org

@ByYourLogic One of the GOP's messaging strategies is to change the subject - not usually what you do if the issue is great for you. From the NRSC's memo on how to respond when candidates get asked about Dobbs: https://t.co/spaQ1BKPKj — PolitiTweet.org

David Weigel @daveweigel

The GOP response to a problem on their side - J6, for example - is instructive. Lots of condemning, but if you're on the trail now you're more likely to hear an R say we need to find out if the FBI was behind the violence. — PolitiTweet.org

David Weigel @daveweigel

My only point is that Dems get scared of being blamed for crazy or violent protests, and they're almost always scared of this - summer 2020 was the outlier. In 2017 Rs ran ads of J20 anti-Trump protests to win the GA06 runoff, tying all Dems to "the mob." — PolitiTweet.org

David Weigel @daveweigel

I had some takes earlier about how Dems are scared of their side going overboard, but it's not like the Ruth Sent Us folks are the first people to do this and have [gasp!] shattered a sacred norm. — PolitiTweet.org
