I saw the Washington Post editorial on redistricting today and this is my official response.

Karoline Leavitt: “President Trump is running the country the same way he ran his business.” Absolutely.

finance guys on twitter are like "can't believe zohran hired lina khan. she wants to make it illegal to bundle memecoin futures into junk stocks and sell them to public worker pension plans. the public won't stand for it."

a man was just found not guilty by jury lollification

@nytpitchbot.bsky.social couldn't top this one

How the fuck did we ever lose to these clowns?

is that.... just printer paper? for real?

OC has gone woke, I repeat, OC has gone woke

Bluesky rn

Wow it turns out the entire country is not permanently reactionary because Trump won an election by 1.5%

Politicians should probably get on Bluesky to get better in touch with the American electorate.

People who are leaving NYC, please post pix of your U-Hauls!

Looking forward to learning all about how the right should move left to win elections tomorrow. They should maybe dye their hair pink, learn to love pronouns.

UPDATE: No.

flawless fucking victory

give the voters what they want: BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD

Please check all that apply

Gonna be reeeaaal close but I think Jones is going to win

The death of dense city living was highly overstated.

[looks around for jake tapper] hey man, do you, uh, want to write about this?

Quite an unfortunate place to drift off into an ellipsis.

The German company that makes the mechanical ladder used in the Louvre heist has used the image to advertise, with the text 'When you need to move fast' 10/10 response, no notes

The weirdest thing about modern politics, is this thing where if people found out their favorite politician were secretly having sex with turkeys, they wouldn't say "he's bad" but just, "this sort of thing is really going to give ammunition to those people who said he was a turkey-fucker."

im sorry but if you think “normies” dont care about the white house being demolished for a half billion dollar golden vanity ballroom as the economy implodes then you just arent as plugged in as you think you are

big underlying problem is that Buying Things is many people's primary expression of social status and self-worth. being able to afford constant burrito taxies is a status signal. buying expensive videogames at launch is a status signal. people need to recalibrate their status expectations.

Despite most the country finding this kind of gutter racism abhorant political elites have created an epistemic bubble that convinced them it will win in New York of all places. Utterly fascinating.

"Oxford commas are a sign you write with ai" I will find such a unique way to rip out your spine that they'll make a movie about it

"note to self: disband the Marines, ASAP"

"There is nothing wrong with having a house devoted to white people and it is outrageous that the Democrats would destroy any part of it in a terrorist act," said Senator Tuberville. He paused as an aide whispered in his ear.

[professional contrarian substack voice] The left didn’t talk much about the structural integrity of the White House until Trump tore it down. Curious.

Now wondering how many of these white folks have a friend who has a Nazi tattoo

the “politics can be a game of cultural affinity or it can be a game of winning” actually goes for everyone

A lot of people need to sit their asses down and interrogate exactly *why* they found themselves so ready to support this kind of performative masculinity. Because Platner would not have had this kind of support if he’d been, say, an adjunct college professor making $32k/year before taxes.

It’s time to hang up the spurs, old man.

The New York Times describes Trump demanding his own Justice Department pay him $230 million as a "potential" ethical conflict.

I never knew that in the United States literally the president can do anything as long as everybody agrees not to stop them. Very weird, realizing the entire thing was made of cotton candy

Bro, log the fuck off. All the way off. Turn your phone off, stick it in a drawer, and don’t even look at it for like two weeks.

We finally found a worse campaign message than “I am not a witch”

EXCLUSIVE: One Saturday afternoon in October, my phone lit up with a notification. I glanced down at the message. “Anna, Lindsey Halligan here,” it began. So began my text exchange with the woman who is prosecuting the president's perceived political enemies. www.lawfaremedia.org/article/anna...

Weeks hell, Hillary Clinton used a mildly derogatory term to refer to a subset of Trump supporters in a speech at a private gathering whose theme was that Democrats should try to appeal to the rest of Trump's supporters who were good people, and we still hear about it all the time

Obama sharing a video of himself wearing a crown and flying a King Obama jet that dumped shit all over Americans would have been the only thing the news networks talked about for weeks. Meanwhile, Trump doing that very thing couldn't even warrant a discussion on the Sunday shows today.

Not sure the folks at NBC/Peacock thought this one through

Oh brother, this guy stinks!

If I were to tell you right after the election last year that in terms of Dem Governors in the coming Trump 2 era, Hochul would distinguish herself and Whitmer would fucking flop, not a soul on earth would have believed me, but here we are.

Sam Altman went from “AI will cure cancer" to "ChatGPT porn" in less than a month

This dude has the juice.
