“I run the protection program” is a very wild quote.

it is going to get so, so much dumber

Fuck the reflecting pool. This has not gotten nearly enough coverage or generated the proper outrage. People thrown in prison for 30-50 years for the "crime" ofmaking zines and belonging to a book club!! This is straight-up totalitarian atrocity. Political prisoners thrown in a gulag to rot.

when i was a kid i thought his name was mcjagger. killer mononym

you know sometimes i don't like having an active imagination

My not-so-hot take is that what Mamdani is doing *IS* incrementalism, and the bar is so deeply in hell that a politician just doing *anything* good consistently is a total anomaly for people. And I think for now that is good and fine, because it is restoring people’s faith that better is possible.

It would be cool if they applied this same energy to winning elections against Republicans.

In my opinion hardwood Democrats who don't want to be replaced shouldn't have sucked shit for so long without listening to everyone screaming at them about it. We need to see so many of them replaced in so many primaries. Every time it happens is cause for hope and should cheer people everywhere.

every norwegian office kitchen

spent over an hour today running a magnet through some dirt and rocks looking for rusty nails and it was an incredible time. 10/10 task.

Oh look it’s still theft when you steal the art/design from rich corporations

full pardons for anyone convicted in these nspm 7 convictions should be an express and mandatory part of any democratic platform

without an ounce of irony, i think that first guy and a lot of people like him would genuinely benefit from hearing a spanish love songs record

i do not care to read three cis gays using the laverne cox article as a jumping-off point for an article that blows up trans intracommunity discussion about our safety for a general audience. slate gonna slate but also fuck off with this shit

the bread is $13.50 and all the circuses are subscription based

America cannot have a multiracial, multicultural democracy if the United States Supreme Court is allowed to continue to exist in its current form

No matter how many people are talking about this, it is not enough people talking about this.

I was sick of seeing JD Vance's memoir get all of the book coverage. So I asked a bunch of writers I know and love what recent books they think should get more attention. These are books for people who actually like to read. Please check them out! lithub.com/40-great-new...

This Day in Labor History: June 25, 1938. FDR signed the Fair Labor Standards Act. This groundbreaking piece of legislation set the standards of labor that defined post-war America, including minimum wages, overtime pay, and the banning of most child labor. Like everything, it was also incremental.

Intressant utveckling i Nacka som är enda kommunen i Sverige som helt privatiserat sina folkbibliotek.

For a long time, the New York Democratic machine was corrupt, sclerotic, hostile to progress, and completely implacable. That started to change when 13 women came forward, at great personal cost, about the sexual harassment they experienced from Andrew Cuomo.

Last night’s victories for a new and more optimistic generation of Democrats—ones who will hopefully be more forward looking and more accountable—are owed in no small measure to those women’s courage.

hey @metallica.com i heard that kirk runs this account can you confirm or deny

the Moda public money question is going to be a big test. we will see if local electeds are willing to leave everything on the court in the fight for fiscal stewardship or not. it’s not easy to take that lane, and it may cost me my seat. and that’s ok if it means we don’t get rolled by a billionaire

air conditioning is good and right and a just climate future has zero emissions and also air conditioning and we should build a better world where people don’t die in heat waves

YES

tom dundon could fund the moda center refresh without breaking a sweat and he would remain a whole billionaire

i love when there's an opening, and i can sense it and recognize it before it snaps shut again. it feels like learning. keep going everyone

Lynda Barry did not squeeze your heart and simultaneously explain the point of all art with the barest of line drawings so you could tell me that AI is "inevitable."

This was the entire NYC DSA contingent during Occupy Wall Street in 2011. 15 years later, DSA has the mayor, five members of Congress, and almost 20 members on the state and local level. The world changes quickly.

it’s just, like, terrible leadership to ice out an obviously rising and increasingly powerful force in your party simply because they don’t square with your messaging. that’s john kerry shit, change the messaging

I'm glad centrist democrats woke up today and decided to collectively admit that blue no matter who was always bullshit

Libs: You have to support the democratic nominee even if they weren't your first choice. This is the most important election of our lifetime and democracy is on the line so stop expecting perfection and vote against the fascists. Libs when someone to reagan's left wins a primary:

The last 18 months in politics: -Trump wins, implements horrific agenda -Establishment Dems go into freeze/appeasement -Grassroots opposition movement builds -Dem leadership feigns resistance -Primary challenges proliferate Not that complicated. Schumer et al reap what they sowed.

I left the Church years ago. I can’t go back. I do not demand that the Church change for me. But when the Holy Father says stuff like this I feel so connected to the depths of my faith, to the part of the Church that I did not and cannot leave, and I am so happy to feel that way

i don’t think that ‘the american way of life’ and ‘having contempt for israel‘ are related, at all, whether directly or inversely. but that’s just me and i‘m an outlier, obviously every other american thinks ‘the american way of life’ is synonymous with reverence and respect for the israeli state

this is a great illustration of one of the fundamental insights of democracy — that there is no such thing as "the people" and that majorities are elusive and ever shifting. no election, no decision, is final and treating an election as a final decision is profoundly undemocratic.

I've mentioned before that I produce the pod In This Family, about families and mental health. Many great episodes available. This week, I'm also the guest, talking about the power of story, generational trauma, self-medication, and also there are jokes. www.nexusfamilyhealing.org/podcast/john...

don't be afraid to go hard. like just in general

maaaaannnn the usa v. eu air conditioning discourse is so brutal, so mired in convenience and topline expense and historical norms / preferences etc. it's increasingly a life or death issue. not in every place every time, but more likely everywhere with every passing day. it *needs* to be an option

My daughter’s favorite song is Wheels on the Bus. We’re adding new verses like you’ve never heard. Ms Rachel is on the bus. Mamdani is on the bus. A rat is driving the bus. The bus is a plane now. A guy who listened to loud music without headphones got his ass kicked.
