Poor widdle man got his feefees hurt. Yet, he will still teach students? Presumably young women among them? Go pound sand Larry. No one believes you feel shame.

If you ask historians of medicine what keeps them up at night, many will not say a new plague or bioterrorism, they will answer, "antibiotic resistance."

Why is this fucking guy always THIS fucking guy

I'm ill. Unsurprised, but ill. Trump is ever exploring the contours of his violence-curious side. Attaining the presidency allowed him to look deeper into the Pandora's box he'd been dancing around for years. He's out of his depth with this crew and freaking out.

Some inspiring words on cinema in the streaming era from the Pope. Yes, THAT Pope.

On it!

What is so terribly broken about the Democratic policy world that anyone thought tapping *Larry Summers* for future economic policy was a reasonable thing to do, rather than completely unhinged?

Ah, the blessed mute function...

My first cell phone in '99/'00 had decent call quality but I've complained about cell phones being crap on ACTUAL call quality for the last 20 years. In a world where people are buried in their screens, dread phone calls, and the social contract is broken, maybe landlines were good, actually?

just opening up the new Epstein docs at random:

Venn diagram of CEOs and the shitty grammer that's clearly on display via the Epstein emails explains that the best any of these chuckleheads come up with is "writing emails for you." With today's news, as anti-AI as I am, yes, it does seem like an AI can write YOUR emails better than you can.

Wait a fucking minute! Are you telling me that Larry Summers is implicated too?! Where is that meme "if he has no haters on this earth, I must be dead" when you need it?

i just want to stress that this isnt about trump anymore, its about the entire republican party and maga movement covering for a child sex trafficking ring

New: A judge in Washington has ruled images from Flock surveillance cameras are public records and that anyone can request them. Highlights the pervasiveness of this tech and just how much surveillance is being done. Very notable ruling www.404media.co/judge-rules-...

the democratic party establishment hasnt learned a damn thing since they voted to allow george w bush to invade iraq. not one thing.

Whenever some sanctimonious Dem announces that America needs a functioning Republican Party, I always think “I’d settle for a functioning Democratic Party.”

The *only* endorsements I pay any attention to are WFP. (Which incidentally was what I used to help my mom narrow her primary choices for NYC mayor!)

Let's also remember that Gavin Newsom vetoed single payer in California, so there are people in all levels of leadership who are absolutely dogshit and should never be elected again.

if you genuinely think Schumer and Democratic leadership opposed this & Republicans coincidentally got exactly the number of votes they needed to avoid a filibuster and none of those votes are from Democratic Senators who are up for reelection in the midterms next year, I have a bridge to sell you.

Unless Democratic Senators who voted no on the #Schumersurrender today explicitly call for Schumer to resign or step aside - they all own this cave. Just pushing out performative posts and press releases don’t count for much anymore. Enough.

Not a single senate Democrat should be politically safe from this day forward. Not one

Van Hollen a No, and suggesting they might drag this out and make it painful

Me. I am still furious!

Senate update: Republicans are now trying to sneak a backdoor national abortion ban into their government funding bill. Republicans will stop at nothing to control women's health care decisions.

So much this!

Again, no fucking way. We all need to be pushing hard on our electeds RIGHT NOW to set the stage that this isn't happening

I'm sorry, insurer of last resort? Nope, not how this works! You have a shit product, YOU lose money. NOT. US.

And the more the billionaires argue, the higher the rate

Do this every day!

Mamdani: "We can respond to oligarchy and authoritarianism with the strength it fears, not the appeasement it craves. After all, if anyone can show a nation betrayed by Donald Trump how to defeat him, it is the city that gave rise to him."

Yes! "How we stop the next one" is a huge acknowledgement of the moment. Trump wasn't an accident, he happened BECAUSE there was a space for him!

there are basically not enough republican voters to create enough safe seats to withstand the kind of wave that, for example, turned virginia into a democratic supermajority state for the first time in the modern era of its politics

“We won because we insisted that politics is no longer something that is done to us. Now it is something we do.” Every single word of this Mamdani speech is fucking fire.

"To get to any of us you will have to get thru ALL OF US!"

Brad Lander is at the victory party and, folks, he has the custom one-of-one “GOOD FUCKING RIDDANCE” shirt.

this is a reminder that we dont have to settle for newsom in 2028

Clearly Dick Cheney was a load bearing shitbag and the timeline is self correcting

posted this four months ago but tonight as buckaroos like mamdani sweep elections i will post again. hope this is sign to all establishment goofs that trotting to the center is not the move. protect the buckaroos who are in perilous circumstances and do not give an inch

I want to tell both Tom Suozzi and very specifically my high school classmate Laura Gillen to go pound fucking sand!

They’ll insist this is a one-off victory — something that can only happen in New York & nowhere else. They’re wrong. New York is the world financial capital — home of Wall Street & billionaires from across the globe. If everyday people can defeat oligarchs here, we can defeat oligarchy anywhere.

I'm crying!

First NYC results are in: That's already 819,165 votes. Mamdani: 51.5% Cuomo: 40% Sliwa: 8%. (That's roughly 40% of the vote.)

ON LINE! (I ❤️❤️❤️❤️ nyc)

so would we

One of our country's greatest war criminals just died, the president is arguing with himself about whether or not to let 40 million people starve, and there is an actual courtroom drama about a five dollar footlong. How are any of us supposed to maintain emotional regulation.

I'm confused. I was told that billionaires think tech will let them live forever? I'm pretty sure I lived thru the years where Dick Cheney evolved to mostly cyborg and now he's dead?! That's got to be troubling for their brand. Oh no.......
