#impediments
Impediments to progress take many guises.

I don't have the time.

Some people without impediments can climb everest, but not everyone could do that just to get to work.

Exactly. Show them who the impediments to governance are.

Never hate anything as much as Republicans hate wanting the right to vote being a process free of impediments.

As the first Director of Nuclear Materials Security at the National Security Council, I worked with these issues daily. I watched as the technological and industrial impediments to nuclear weapons fell.

Our only hope is to reinforce, rather than undermine, international law.

You mean like how my employer sends me fake phishing emails periodically to see if I’m on my toes? I feel like there would be some complicated legal impediments to instituting this.

Scotland is not a colony of the British state, but a small economy prey to global capitalism, stewarded by a governing party which has neither the interest, nor the ability, to establish impediments to such a process, writes Jonathon Shafi ✍️

Because it’s a good proposal. It addresses major impediments to building anything at the federal
Level. Want to empower Mamdani and Raman? Pass this bill.

“Couples today are selfish. Nobody wants to have babies.”

Maybe, if you reduce the financial impediments to having kids,more people could share this joy.

Maybe…

I was simultaneously developing a campaign for a pedestrian plaza in my neighborhood, as a concrete project which would also help us identify and address the systemic impediments.

@gallego.senate.gov calls #BAAJA a "win."

BAAJA will remove all impediments to ICE's human warehouses.

Tell Congress: nodirtydatacenterdeal.com
SCOOP: ICE to pay $32 million to convert Roxbory, N.J., warehouse into a detention center. A court order bars any construction work until the agency has completed an environmental review.

This is a developing story.
SCOOP: ICE to pay $32 million for Roxbury, N.J. warehouse conversion
The firm that brokered the agency’s warehouse purchases will renovate its Roxbury property, which a court agreement bars ICE from converting until an environmental review is done.

It’s been an all out assault on the “American” way of life. Take away people’s freedoms of movement, freedom to vote without impediments, people can only see so many kidnappings before they break. Now add the economic stuff in there and we got exactly the electoral response we should have

This was a mis-share on my part. It deserves rebutting:

Look, one of the few impediments to Trump's agenda have been Article III judges. Many appointed by Bush and Trump himself.
Republican judges serving on those courts don’t even accept the legitimacy of the Constitution itself!
Liberal opponents of court-packing seem to think that Republicans will NOT accept the legitimacy of a court flipped left through expansion, but WILL accept the legitimacy of a court flipped left the old-fashioned way (deaths/retirements timed well for Dems). What is the basis for this assumption?

It's for translating speech into other languages in near real time while adjusting lip movements. It's also for removing filler words, mispronunciations and speech impediments, and filtering out profanity, slang, or adjusting terms based on viewer preferences. That said, there are obviously risks.

get these impediments out of the way
November 6, 2026 at 11:19 AM
Just bullshit, the Democratic leaders of both chambers have been impediments to progress for decades and their absolute fecklessness has to end. Pelosi gets lauded for how she controlled the House, but to what end did she control it? To what goals? Her mishandling of impeachment was unforgivable.

i dont watch his content since it gives off "when someone is 1% more autistic than you 😡" vibes, especially since he mocks speech impediments and still uses demeaning slurs

He becomes a better person, partly because he wants to impress her, but in the process he actually learns to just be a person who can care about other people as people, not objects or impediments. It's a more interesting arc than Willow or Xander or Anya, for my money.

Jeffries and Schumer were impediments to—not facilitators of—Tuesday night's blowout.

Health insurers, pharmacy benefit managers and big pharma are impediments to universal healthcare. The savings will be massive. Time to eliminate their collective influence.
November 10, 2026 at 3:52 PM
Oh nice. So do they actively move the plot in the book, or are they more incidental impediments?
November 7, 2026 at 7:13 PM
i think of all the kinds of ways to make somebody huge in fetish art inflation is the only one that is just unstoppable. it's so absurd and goofy and over the top that nothing WORKS on it unless it reaches its level of irreverence, otherwise all impediments and retaliation are just tissue paper.

i imagine this is basically what is happening in China? our impediments are not technological.
November 5, 2026 at 12:36 AM
Even on gray zone stuff, far easier to coordinate with Taiwan if we dropped ambiguity about defending it, and eliminated all other impediments to treating it like any other partner country. (I speak as someone who has seen the bureaucratic fight around any semi-official business with TWN up close…)
November 10, 2026 at 8:35 AM
yeah, and this is the part about jeffries and schumer that worries me the most

i don't think they'll actually be impediments to legislation and investigation, but neither of them are very compelling media presences (schumer in particular is AWFUL)

like it or not, gotta win the attention economy
