As all this disgusting Epstein shit starts surfacing more and more, I hope we don't lose sight of the fact that apparently every major media outlet knew everything and instead spent their time money and energy attacking the trans community.

i really truly wish any of the epstein furore was caused by a genuine concern for cruelty for teenage girls, for exploited kids. it would be a different country if it was, of course, but the discourse is sometimes jarring

every tiny crumb that leaks out is a career ending bombshell and we’re all just supposed to go on with our lives while our elected representatives shrug and tell us there’s nothing to be done about the president’s involvement in a child sex trafficking operation

Remember when she compared the keffiyeh to a swastika? Because I do...

It’s always worth remembering that hating and owning people like Musk is the lowest possible bar ever and not really worth lionising someone for. It’s the bare minimum and doesn’t mean someone is a good person!

in mamdani’s america they teach Al’Gebra in schools

“We're seeing a level of proliferation of bodies & body piles from space that's unlike anything I've ever seen…” Human rights investigator Nathaniel Raymond explains how more people could be killed within a week in Sudan, compared to the past two years in Gaza. 🔗 zeteo.com/p/sudans-dea...

ME: [extremely burnt out] I need to take the day off to relax ALSO ME: I wonder if there is a way that I could relax that would be more productive

Weird kids with a strong sense of self🙏🏻

So it turns out... the US air travel system was incredibly, deeply dependent on federal funding to just run day-to-day all this time, to the benefit of private airline shareholders, when everyone thinks that state-run trains are leeching off the government. Weird!

Maybe it’s because I am gay, but I find Obama whispering that he’s talking (or wants to talk) to Mamdani behind the scenes worse than just silently not endorsing him would be. The closet is psychologically destructive, even in non-sexual settings.

virtue signalling is good actually

“Suicidal empathy” is a brilliant concept because it attacks you on your terms by acknowledging that your empathy is a virtue and then it sinks its teeth into you by saying that this virtue comes at the expense of your own safety.

and now it’s time to see what Charlie Kirk has to say about Zohran Mamdani winning the NYC mayoral election. you’ve been awfully quiet, Charlie! something stuck in your throat?

We’re hiring! Our new resume portal is live, and we’re looking for top talent in NYC to help build this administration and deliver on our affordability agenda. Could that be you? Apply using the link below. transition2025.com/apply

Still thinking about Zohran’s full-throated defense of immigration and how long i’ve waited for it. No bullshit about border security or “legal” immigrants but just unabashed support for immigrants. How many people feel so much more seen today? I know I do. 1/

so many good pictures out there

HUGE congratulations to all the Mamdani campaign volunteers. Y'all did that shit.

I wish I could show you all the joyous photos and videos being shared on Muslim and South Asian WhatsApp right now with people reacting to Mamdani's victory. It's really beautiful and cathartic. So many years of anti-Muslim bigotry, racism & hate. And all those tears are now sugar for our chai.

Let the bullshit, racist, copium takes begin

Teen Vogue's political reporting has been very solid and rightfully praised for it... so naturally they completely gutted the team behind that.

Zohran Mamdani polled +40% on men under 30. So we wasted all that time on all those think pieces about how we need a Joe Rogan for the left, when what we actually needed were *policies* for the left.

God I love that the most heinous people in the country are having the worst goddamn night tonight. Eat shit you hateful losers.

It took 17 years to get Democrats back to this moment of opportunity. The question after these election wins is whether the whole party will embrace the populism voters want - and whether Dems can learn the cautionary lessons about how their past leaders' post-election betrayals created a backlash.

If yesterday taught us anything, it’s that you don’t know what’s viable or what’s possible til you at least try. We actually don’t have to take what we’re given. If enough of us get together and touch and agree we can do, create, and have better.

Name them. Name the things fascists are correct about.

Dick Cheney dying on the eve of Zohran becoming mayor is so beautifully poetic.

Condé Nast finally achieved its dream of wrecking Teen Vogue and killing its politics section. www.thecut.com/article/teen...

older guy on the N train started screaming about the mayoral race and i was like here we go but then it turns out he was just telling everyone about all the bad shit cuomo did. greatest city in the world baby!

This is literally Nazi shit. This is what the Nazis did. If you support this, you are a Nazi, and if that makes you upset, then STOP BEING A FUCKING NAZI

Get Him to The Greek reboot but The Greek is also just Stavvy.

Tired of men thinking their idea of death cult is the right one. Nihilism is bad. Thinking all humans should die even as a joke is baby fascism. So, verily, shut the fuck up with this.

If you make 130% of the federal poverty level, you qualify for SNAP. A family of four, making $40,560, qualifies for SNAP benefits meaning thousands of Missouri teachers qualify. I’m tired of the bullshit. Most of the people who receive snap benefits work.

My dad sent me this

The Walton family (who own Walmart) are worth over $400 billion, yet many of their employees are on SNAP. Bezos is worth over $400 billion, many Amazon employees require SNAP. The people who need help are not the problem. It’s corporate greed. It’s an unwillingness to pay a living wage.

Avigdor Liberman is a member of the Knesset, by the way. This has always been OUR genocide. Israel doesn't control us and never has. We control Israel.

Companies that harm on a wide scale (lose Class Actions, leak our Social Security details, harm the planet, etc.) should have an injunction out against them immediately. We need to stop treating them as individuals because they can harm MANY at once. Treat them as the public threat they are.

For example, in the case of the power company that caused the Altadena fires, the damage they’ve done to the people, the land? While their “case” undergoes investigation, they should be put under stay where all profits are put into a trust controlled by the city of Altadena until resolution.

Heads up: we’ve gotten to where we are because our law and judicial system are a mess. The rich and connected can afford to sue and wait years for resolution, while they continue illegal acts and pay no consequence. The whole system is rotten. We need expedited, life-forward justice.

Too bad our industry collapsed and you’ll not get anything like the first two images for a really long while unless someone is coming to our rescue. I know because I literally just talked to Pen, Ian, Rebecca, and Pat yesterday.

It’s certainly the case that there’s a degree of Nazi rot in the scout snipers and the military more generally, but cmon that’s never ever been a norm to be upheld. It’s the kind of breakdown in standards that leads to fools getting the totenkopf tattooed on their chest. www.bbc.com/news/world-u...

whomst amongst us

Kinda wild that Mamdani and Sliwa are the guys who won their primaries and there has been open, nonstop meddling to overturn that will of the voters and install the disgraced former governor and it’s largely being covered like this is perfectly normal shit

Americans lost reproductive freedom under Joe Biden. It was in the middle of his term and so you can’t blame the previous administration and since it was in the middle of his term, he had plenty of time to make moves to restore the reproductive rights. Joe Biden did not want to.

1.1 million • Total US casualties in major #military conflicts since the Revolution 1.2 million • Total US Dead from #Covid, so far. Additional 300/wk still dying. That’s a plane crash a week. Please share these powerful lessons from Margaret Heffernan on the dangers of #WillfulBlindness #Data

I've watched this 100 times and I plan on clearing my schedule so I can watch it 100 more

In the world of crime being a drug dealer is not worse than being an overzealous killer
