rn at 10pm we're at 90 on the dot, we topped out at 98 degrees in the afternoon Portland ME

I think like Doctors activists should live by the rule "first do no harm"

This might just be me but the ads I'm getting against Susan Collins feel very tired and weak, "she voted for tax cuts for the rich" and "tell Susan to stop Congressional stock trades" just... like.... I feel like I saw that in 2020?

oh crap just what we need

I'm annoyed because a 50 state fair for America's 250th sounds kinda awful, like big BIG booths/tents for each state (and DC PR, the territories) you know Louisiana serving gumbo across the way from Puerto Rico doing Mofongo, sounds like a great time but we got this shit show instead 🤬

I always find this kind of thing amazingly boring. its just American Exceptionalism turned over, that America is super special in its evil 🙄 I happen to think there's a lot of cool things about America, much of it black, native, and hispanic, is worth celebrating and Jewish if you count movies

its funny the TV shows, like Modern Family, Will & Grace, and Glee (people will hate me saying that one) that maybe had the largest cultural impact imaginable by being hugely popular with gay characters and changing ALL of American culture, aren't remembered that way

just saw a video it opens with "when I see queer people who support Palestine, I think they do it because they're minds are free." and there's a lot of this kind of worrying "self enlightenment" through Palestine/secret Zionist mind control "waking up" scary how normalized it is

don't mind me I'm just

its a shame we don't have a real President for America's 250th, could have been fun, but we have a narcissistic clown President who seems to think the founding of America and it lasting 250 years is all his doing

I've said this a few times, but modern "grooming" trans/homophobia post-2020 is just repeating old Nazi talking points about an elite shadow conspiracy corrupting the young, even if you're not saying "Jew" you're saying literally everything *but*

hey fam, am I a bot? many people, particularly random "Maine" accounts that are totally real, are saying... 🙄

looking at the Maine Polls, the averages of polls from June: Platner: 47.3% Collins: 46.3% the polls from January till May Platner: 47.6% Collins: 41.6%

so the top two candidates for Wisconsin's Governor race are Mandela Barnes the guy who totally blew in the 2022 Senate run by running as Bernie of the Midwest and Francesca Hong, who moonlights as an antisemitic twitch streamer great.

“there has been a dramatic resurgence in antisemitism in recent years on all sides of the political spectrum, due in part to actions taken by the Israeli government.” I love the rise of antisemitism among Democratic activists, 💀

I was born in Maine, I've lived in Maine for decades, there has never been a full year of my life that I have not spent time in Maine, I have knocked thousands of doors across the state for multiple elections, talking to voters I would posit that I maybe understand the state

it is wild that Mitch McConnell might be on death's door and its like a page 5? level story? barely breaking the surface given the media's all consuming obsession with Dianne Feinstein's much more transparent and open health issues (and less serious then a major heart attack)

Thessaloniki, or Saloniko as it was known to its Jews, was known as the "Jerusalem of the Balkans" before WWI the city was Jewish majority, its signs in Ladino, The Greek state decided to resettle Greeks from Turkey there to end the Jewish majority and the Nazis finished the job 20 years later.

I've said before and I'll say again, a lot of this is rooted in an inherently sexist view that women's sports are fake and not real and no female athlete has any hope of competing against any random male off the street of course trans athletes according to science have no advantage over cis ones.

oh I see El-Sayed did an interview where he basically said Stevens was a dumb bitch puppeted by AIPAC, thats normal and cool.

people who didn't do everything they could to get Trump out of office or or keep him out, are fundamentally bad people.

I think antisemitic harassment of public figures is bad actually seems to be a thing a certain kind of SF political hipster seems unable to just say.

a war you never hear about, one of many

so between Platner, Avila Chevalier, and now Melat Kiros how far are we from a Democratic nominee for major office doing straight up Holocaust denial?

the same poll that had Platner 49% to Collins 47% had Democrat Hannah Pingree at 50% to Republican Bobby Charles 36% (and an Independent at 8%)

so a number of people have tried to play off the targeting of Scott Wiener for antisemitic abuse at the trans march as the fault of a straight guy outsider, well the reaction of the organizers uh leaves something to be desired www.jta.org/2026/06/30/p...

well fuck Collins 50% - Platner 47%

okay, so? oh no the Justices say trans students are protected by the CONSTITUTION, not a law... like... oh no? dumb.

girl shut the fuck up. All 3 of the Justice appointed by Democrats dissented in that case today, bitch if Hillary Clinton had appointed 3 Justices like Trump did it would have been 6-3 the other way.

I worked for Hillary in 2016 as a organizer and we did listening sessions with Bernie supporters trying to win them I remember getting a little choked up about my rights as young gay man and how fragile it all was and some 50 year old woman angrily telling me off for trying to guilt her into voting

so does anyone understand what this weird bot is trying to say? that Jews can't be abused in public of people trying to force people to say things for the main or sole purpose of embarrassing them and forcing to "admit" "guilt" is not humiliating? I don't understand

oh also in light of Supreme Court rulings and scarily tight rulings, it is time, again for the sign

I think when it comes to kids and social media, they're totally allergic to the actual answer, educating kids on spotting misinformation in schools (like Finland and Taiwan) and frank conversations with teenagers at home, can't have that!

something good happened, time to get ritually angry at the Jew for not tweeting about it the right way even while he was totally uninvolved.

I am, despite it all, still an optimist, but I don't believe in ideology, I believe in taking each problem as they come and doing the very best for the most people, I don't believe in a unified theory of everything or single vision answer and Mamdani is a mayor of one city and barely matters.

I think this gets somewhat overstated by those of us who were gay teens in years gone by. I think for sure there are pockets and places where its much better, but I think large parts of the country it'd be recognizable from our time I think the difference is there's an on-line space to be gay

okay so again, its the *right* of every AMERICAN to spend their money lobbying on issues they care about, this is not *bribery* and its not foreign but implying Jewish Americans are foreigners using their money in underhanded and illegal ways is you know antisemitic.

you know, unfortunately as long as no new scandal breaks before the July deadline and Platner manages polls where he's at least on paper ahead by any amount there won't be an effort to push him out even as we can all see the disaster ahead

I'm begging modern cinematographers, please for the love of god light things! please I beg of you, I'm so tired of turning the brightness up to 200% and still squinting at the screen to see if I can see anything

I don't normally do this kinda thing but @mikenellis.bsky.social @admiralmpj.bsky.social you guys are following this absolute ass hole, by mistake I'm sure, and everyone else should double check because wtf

the same poll found 60% of women want a Democratic Senate, while men are tied 48-48% and Trump has a 59-38 disapprove to approve... but Platner is 50-45% with only 44% saying he has "good character" and 45% "the right morals"

yet another poll out of Maine showing effectively a tied race, these are the numbers we're seeing in Iowa and Texas (Alaska's numbers are better)

woke up to this horror one Wiener is not "cishet" rather famously 2. this is a lie, Wiener has gone to EVERY trans march since it started in 2004 and was invited to a side event at the march

my feed is full of people mad at Pete Buttigieg for not being gay enough and also people mad at Scott Wiener who managed to marry being the kind of gay who goes to Folsom in leathers with being a politician, because he failed to be "queer politically" looks like there's no right way to be gay huh

oh I see so Harris being a "Cop" a thing she never was makes her not black? how interesting

"Candidate for President doesn't want to appear next to stripper pole, clearly means he hates gay people" I think you'd hard pressed to find any candidate for President willing to appear next to a stripper pole actually

Being gay, Republican somehow? more at 11

being gay, Republican somehow? more at 11.

its always interesting how a certain kind of very on-line Queer person when fishing for an insult always goes with dick sucking or ass fucking, I'm sure that means nothing though....

I love how people tell on themselves when they try to dunk on someone for this, like your life has been so soft that no one has ever bullied you into hating yourself and wanting God to "fix" you, must be nice.
