Thomas Massie to CNN on the Epstein files: "This vote is gonna be on your record for longer than Trump is gonna be president. And what are you gonna do in 2028 and 2030 when you're in a debate … and they say, 'How can we trust you? You covered up for a pedophile back in 2025.'"

always remember:

Dismantle the patriarchy and burn it all down

2) Sword & sorcery is always political and philosophical. Read the original Kull and Conan stories by Robert E. Howard. Even in an age undreamed of, Conan was full ACAB.

see there's no way I can look at that train dream guy's face for 2 hours. I think casting director is lowkey the most consequential role in the modern system, and I think some of them are clearly sociopaths

Taking my wife up, carried her to Charing Cross, and there showed her the Italian motion, much after the nature of what I showed her a while since in Covent Garden. Their puppets here are somewhat better, but their motions not at all.

history will ultimately decide this but i think joyce carol oates might have just landed the most devastating burn in human history. like the death star trench run of posting

SOCRATES: No god is a philosopher or seeker after wisdom, for he is wise already; nor does any man who is wise seek after wisdom. PLATO: Neither do the ignorant seek after wisdom. DARRYL, SOCRATES AND PLATO’S FRIEND: well well well if it isn’t the blowjob brothers

Zohran at the rally for trans youth on february 8 ❣️ he was polling single digits.

what a gorgeous strip!

I knew it would take less than a day for a tiktok dj to make something.

In 2020, a young socialist organizer & AIAC contributor sat down with us, sharing his vision for a world that empowers working people over the rich and powerful. Today, that vision has carried him to City Hall. Congrats, Mayor @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social! 🌹 africasacountry.com/2020/01/roti...

The obsessive wokeness panic is about elite labor market competition and prestige. People use a lot of fancy words to obscure this, and offer some substantive criticisms as well, but that’s ultimately its driving force.

its always 2 dumb bitches telling eachother "exactlyyyy"

Zohran Mamdani was the first mayoral candidate and Democratic official to stand up to the Trump administration over the arrest and disappearance of Mahmoud Khalil, which he saw as a violation of the First Amendment.

Young people in NYC absolutely showed out and there should be 1000 articles and profiles about this. Because we have had to put up with 1000 MAGA diner stories for years now.

Tips for Cuomo moving forward: -the I-95 express lane in Miami is fool's gold, stick to the main lanes -order your Publix sub online and wait an extra 15 mins beyond when they say it'll be ready -the iguanas don't bite you but the ducks will

Haha unless

A few days after the presidential election one year ago, we went to Fordham Road in the Bronx. It was a little different last week.

أنا اسمي زهران ممدان وعم رشّح حالي لأكون العمدة الجديد في مدينة نيويورك

Congratulations, Andrew Cuomo! I know how hard you worked for this.

I'm from Trinidad & Tobago. I can't tell you how many horrible things have been going on here since we elected a Trump friendly government in Apr via low voter turnout, as happened in the US. But today, after having us under a State of Emergency for months, they've called out all armed forces. 1/3

cuomo has been conducting a campaign of vicious gutter racism against Muslims, Black people, and more, while working with Trump, and Schumer and Gillibrand had not been able to even endorse his opponent. they both deserve to lose their seats.

My last Halloween as a Controller. Time for a (Nintendo) Switch.

My wife once learned she was the secret love child of Ina Garten and Danny DeVito and she felt really insecure about it, so I assured her, “Ina Garten/Devito Baby, don’t you know that I love you?”

Deleted my (unused for years) air bnb account, the company sucks

I have been charged in a federal indictment sought by the Department of Justice. This political prosecution is an attack on all of our First Amendment rights. I’m not backing down, and we’re going to win.

every Democrat in the country should not only endorse Mamdani within three hours but they should denounce and condemn Andrew Cuomo and demand he retire from politics forever

Always wanted to start an “ATTICA, ATTICA” chant like Pacino in Dog Day Afternoon Maybe I’ll get my chance

What an odious thing to say. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/10...
