I don’t see what everyone finds so scary about Mamdani or why a brown man or muslim can’t be mayor. They’ve let Italians be mayor before and that turned out okay.

Reminder that this is a winning position, and people support it

Mob ties. Dead zone football.

How is this Dodger team, of highly-paid mercenaries, diabolical and surgical killers, just a whole bunch of sweeties?

Kershaw. Yes please.

one of the reasons voters believe the caricatures of the democratic party pushed by republicans is because the democratic party itself believes in the caricatures of the democratic party pushed by republicans

Feeding America uses $1 == 4 meals. Feeding someone for a day, with just a $1, should make you feel like a god damn superhero. www.feedingamerica.org/find-your-lo...

"normies do not care about this thing and so it is no use raising a stink" is imho just an excuse for not doing politics, which is the job of making normies care about something

Let’s just stop chasing a working class aesthetic for political candidates. It’s always bullshit anyway. I’d be happy going back to older standards. Having a law degree seems like a pretty reasonable expectation for holding public office. Maybe some previous experience in policy. Expertise is good.

The notion that an authentic working class party must embrace Nazi iconography? That's some of the most insulting shit I've ever fucking heard. You've deliberately conflated "blue collar" with "nazi scum" so fuck you.

Got drunk and got a regrettable tattoo? Forgivable. Wake up the next day, realize what you have done and don’t immediately move to cover that shit up? Very suspicious! The level of suspicion I’m unwilling to extend any benefit of the doubt toward.

Gausman is a Kenny Loggins-looking mother fucker.

Turning on your emergency flashers does not bestow upon you permission to park anywhere is convenient for you - even if you think it is for something super quick.

I hope dem strategists notice that no one protesting the government today, during a government shutdown, supposedly because of healthcare, was saying one word about the shutdown or healthcare. Wake up to the fact this is bigger than all that.

Like, no shit no one had ever hit 3 home runs and got 10 strikeouts in a game before. That is a stupid stat. Made up nonsense.

Making a protest shirt for #NoKings tomorrow. Where can I submit my expense report for the puff paint to George Soros?

What I don't have in experience, I make up for in integrity. And what Andrew Cuomo lacks in integrity, he could never make up for with experience.

I just spent way too long convincing our parent friends that this was fake and obviously so because this doesn’t look remotely like 50 cent. She had the audacity to tell me that maybe I just don’t appreciate how people’s looks change as they age.

Stop jinxing us announcer!

Why the hell do they have Game 2 of the ALCS starting ahead of game 1 of the NCLS? Why can we not just let my Mariners (me) get some rest for a second?

Where’s your messiah now? #GoHawks

You left Darnold a whole minute to cook.

this piece has been in the works a while but honestly i could not have asked for a better foil than ezra klein's interview with ta-nehisi coates. klein longs for peacetime--but you don't get to decide when you're in a fight. www.liberalcurrents.com/democrats-mu...

I keep hearing Sinners get mentioned in this discourse. Finally saw it on the plane and I just don’t get it. Ambitious number of interesting themes attempted but I don’t think Coogler was ultimately able to land them. Without saying I’m racist or its not for me, is there something I’m missing?

I can see a use case for AI in the film business for unestablished auteurs that can’t get a studio to bring their vision to life. What I can’t imagine is why anyone would cast an AI actress like Tilly Norwood rather than rendering the exact character they are imagining.

oh it's time to post the Tetris story again. (short version: reporter goes to cover early e-sports, discovers that his wife is, unknowingly, the greatest Tetris player in the world) archive.boston.com/news/globe/m...

Fuck Nick Bosa. This shouldn’t be a provocative thing to say but there is a good chance the admin will give Nick Bosa’s ACL the Charlie Kirk treatment.

The thing about the Pod Save Nate Silver types is that it’s pretty interesting that Bluesky is the place where the majority of users believe those guys are full of shit and rather than engage with it as they’re asking people to do with rightwing ideas they’re mostly going “do not go there”

This is bleak. I greatly prefer blueskyism to this shit.

Can both Texas and OSU get ranked lower next week?

Joe Biden: Still Alive.

any body want to help me plan sneaking around and raising all the flags back up to full mast

Assumed this video was about Trump taking FOREVER.

Wanna have a picnic with the most garbage ever?

Today I turn 69. Heh heh, 69.

Bluesky right now:

Could y’all imagine how special it would be to have it happen on our ten year anniversary? ❤️🤍💙🥰🥰❤️🤍💙

This is precisely as stupid as every “do your own research” internet person has sounded for the last couple decades. Watch for a blood pressure spike.

he’s watching under all of us now

Taxing income instead of wealth is like ticketing a driver’s acceleration but ignoring the speed. A raw deal for anyone making an initial jump and being hit the hardest. The nouveau riche are radicalized against taxation right away. And that happens to be a favorite topic among their new friends.

Today is my 10 year wedding anniversary.

Civility discourse is a war on thinking and writing clearly. None of this is in defense of nuance. What civility pundits want is to be absolved of responsibility for the content of what they say, provided it's expressed in a particular way. Their fight is against judgement itself.
