goes hand in hand with “can a man be normal to women online” things are so good and easy if the answer is yes and still men trip over themselves to send unsolicited dick pics

the women in the workplace discourse is very funny because a man who can act normal in an office environment that's predominantly female is absolutely on easy street. it's maybe the best gig anyone in history has had. and yet for many guys it is utterly impossible

sincerely, I will always be grateful to her for holding the House together and getting the ACA passed after the election of Scott Brown that said, she bears an enormous amount of responsibility for the current shitshow that is Dem leadership bye, Nancy, you should have retired years ago

this is actually impressive, making up a brand new nobel peace prize replacement is a genuine innovation in bribery absolutely nobody does corruption like FIFA

"Don't get on your Ezra Klein nonsense" incredible this is extra funny to me because I came of age politically when Ezra was the hungry outsider criticizing Dems from a new media platform (blogs) and now he's the establishment getting reamed out for his terrible political instincts

Discworld QOTD, from Witches Abroad "‘Will she live happily ever after?’ he said. NOT FOREVER. BUT PERHAPS FOR LONG ENOUGH."

I'm not sure there's anyone on the planet who deserved to celebrate the defeat of Andrew Cuomo more than Lindsey, who had unimaginable amounts of courage in coming forward and continuing to push until he suffered actual consequences for sexual harassment thrilled for her

oh my god they actually did it lmao

"we'll be welcomed as liberators"-ass article

There's a very real possibility the incoming NYC mayor has seen your nudes

see, the thing is, we just had a vote on this literally yesterday your guy lost, you don't get to decide anymore

no deals hold their hand directly on the stove

no I will not litigate parks and recreation the day after the biggest electoral fuck we've sent in years go outside

it's not sufficient, and it has to be followed by doing the hard work of rebuilding a functional society but last night does show one thing: "vote harder" is, actually, pretty effective

Discworld QOTD, from Witches Abroad "‘Will she live happily ever after?’ he said. NOT FOREVER. BUT PERHAPS FOR LONG ENOUGH."

basically every 2024 truism is dead. Trump did not build a lasting multiracial coalition or turn young men into committed Republicans. You don’t need to cave on trans rights to win. The pundits have nothing left to tell you.

I think this is in some ways the most encouraging thing for me from last night they really went national full court press to beat Mamdani and they got what they wanted - Republicans showed up, held their noses and voted for Cuomo, the anti-Mamdani coalition worked they still lost by 9

A 34-year-old as a politician: My god he's like a baby. It's like they just elected an infant to be their mayor. A 34-year-old as an athlete: You have to admire the bravery of him attempting that dunk, knowing full well the grim reaper is right behind him.

it's not enough just to win - you have to actually show people you can do the things you say you will, which means putting talented and competent people in charge of things this is a damn good start

I like that republicans keep calling mamdani a “literal communist” because they’ve been calling everyone to the left of william mckinley a communist for a hundred years and they need to distinguish

woke 2 baby let's go

Trump's base loves him and that will never change, but he doesn't win the popular vote without quite a lot of people outside that base voting for him because of "economy" or "our memories are like goldfish" or whatever those people have started to remember: oh yeah, we fucking hate Donald Trump

in a welcome surprise, “we fucking hate taxes” apparently carrying the day in the tariffs case and it looks like they’re going down I’m not used to this much good news in a row I don’t know what to do with my hands

whatever you think of Spanberger, the fact that her opponent ran a campaign based almost entirely on transphobia and is on track to eat shit in the biggest blowout the state has seen since 2009 is unambiguously a huge win

the entire twitter and group chat poisoned elite of American society who decided Trump winning an election by 1.5% heralded a thousand year reich may have miscalculated a bit

they’re going to make the entire 2026 midterms about trans kids in bathrooms and they are going to get absolutely dunked to hell protect trans kids: it’s the right thing to do and you’re going to win

slamming tonight’s results down on the table in front of every Republican mapmaker in the country as they prepare their gerrymanders and asking do you feel lucky? well, do ya, punk?

Really looking forward to the Speaker of the House claiming to be unaware of the election results.

Discworld QOTD, from Going Postal "'You wrote everything down, Crispin?' he said. 'Why?' Crispin looked appalled. 'Got to keep records, Reacher,' he said. 'Can't cover y' tracks if you don't know where y'left 'em. Then... can put it all back, see, hardly a crime at all.'"

Our message to Andrew Cuomo was loud & clear in June. It’s louder & clearer tonight.

I want you to think about the worst person you know and how miserable they are and use that as motivation to keep going we are going to win

Trump: "Hear me, President Trump, when I say this: to get to any of us, you will have to get through all of us."

this is the meanest thing Zohran Mamdani has ever said

PEOPLE DO NOT LIKE DONALD TRUMP AND THEY ARE DESPERATE FOR AN OUTLET TO EXPRESS THAT GIVE IT TO THEM

Zohran is cool and awesome and I’m thrilled for him and all of us but at my core this is who I am: the Jewish guy who shows up to be a world class hater in support of his friend

here is your tl;dr for tonight: we won literally everything

Good things are possible and we don’t have to settle.

really important element of this basically total victory is that it puts the fear of god in republican incumbents and may bring the redistricting push to a total halt

this is what happens when the exit polls are “lol lmao” get fucked Donald we’re coming for your maps

Sometimes, to paraphrase Terry Pratchett, you hear the voice of the electorate. And it growls

the entire twitter and group chat poisoned elite of American society who decided Trump winning an election by 1.5% heralded a thousand year reich may have miscalculated a bit

one sentence? that’s all you got, Bill?

50 percent and a million fucking votes this is what winning feels like, get used to it

what the fuck happened in New Jersey (complimentary) there was doom and gloom, even the best case had Sherrill up by high single digits, and she's winning by 12.5% (?!) with 85% in

roses are red big laughs are hearty

thermostatic backlash remains undefeated

The crashouts are already in progress and they are delicious.
