Tech guys six months ago: haha yes we’re cutting all this WASTEFUL spending by eliminating medical research and USAID Tech guys now: yes I think taxpayers will be excited to bailout my non consensual pornography machine

bluesky branding refresh unveiled

Kind of funny bc this is, broadly, what Ghaddafi did when he dissolved much of the Libyan state and “sent it to the people.” We gonnna do a Jamahiryya but with American characteristics! Golden age!

Because, as I have said, it’s only good universal use case is disciplining labor.

No one can tell me a single good use for it, for me. I have asked. Not a one.

We’re back and better than ever, baybeee!!!

I learned a lot about Nancy Pelosi this week — including her very early advocacy for AIDS patients. She visited them in SF General’s AIDS ward and convinced the Reagan administration to allow the AIDS Memorial Quilt to be displayed on the National Mall in 1987. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/07/u...

Would follow the state Senator into battle

Toute nation a le gouvernement qu’elle mérite

apropos james watson’s death i had an idle thought today about how stupid race/iq stuff sounds. “buh if your skin is darker you are biologically less smart” is a thing only a dumbass can believe

Perennially apt text, especially w/r/t to public forums on housing:

We’re already seeing the collaboration of institutions and individuals being reframed as a fear or season of mass fervor and I really want us to remember they chose this.

Inshallah

For those new to Housing Discourse, in 2020 Robert Reich notoriously wrote a letter in support of designating a junky old house on his block as an historic landmark to block its redevelopment as townhouses.

Woke Two: We’re Doing Reconstruction For Real This Time

No more bailouts

I fuckin’ love good news. Marin County NIMBYs in SHAMBLES

yes I am a Spanberger-Mamdani democrat and we are the future

Uh, whoa

Patriots in control. Trust the plan.

The idea that there needs to be one way forward for the Democratic Party is brain dead political writing. San Francisco’s rich tech “liberals” can have a centrist and NYCs youth can have a Democratic Socialist. They’re mayors they don’t need to work together or the same.

Don't forget that Zohran Mamdani spent his entire campaign standing proudly beside the trans community. He went to trans rights rallies just to show support. He proudly waved trans rights flags without hesitation. He refused to back down in support of trans rights. That makes me happy.

when they go low, we whip out our dicks and piss on 'em

The last month of the anti-Mamdani campaign was an absolutely shameful undertaking, an attempt to rip the city and Democratic coalition apart and I'm very happy to see it failed.

Once more, for old times’ sake

Politicians should probably get on Bluesky to get better in touch with the American electorate.

In the future it will be very popular to forget some of the words and actions of powerful liberals and associated institutions during this time and accurately remembering them will be pathologized. You'll feel like you're losing your mind but thats just having a memory and some form of conscience.

You have to survive. There are graves to piss on that haven't been dug yet.

Good things can still happen

Libbing out is praxis

score one for "the pundits are projecting their own preoccupations onto the electorate"

Woke II gonna be wild can’t wait

This is just people fighting to control their workplace. It has nothing to do with the people, with voters, with policy. Thank you.

It literally *does not matter one iota* if you run the reanimated corpse of V.I. Lenin for Senate in swing state bc the GOP is going to accuse you of doing anyway and the NYT will launder it with their both side-ing reporting! May as well run progressive candidates who are good retail politicians!

Raising the red banner of…Chickenstan?

I love good news

Valid

They make the Hapsburgs look like sex symbols

These fash fucks are, always, ALWAYS, the dumpiest, schlubbiest, ugliest, most unfuckable dullards

As a NYer, ”real” “small town” America now looks like a sexual freak zoo run by genital-obsessive xenophobes who make women into living dolls and shoot each other. Mamdani’s NYC (and mine) is a safe, wholesome place where neighbors help each other, do scavenger hunts, ride bikes, and birdwatch.

i would like everyone involved in these bigoted anti-mamdani ads to, uh, get a really bad rash

Cuomo le collabo

I think it’s perhaps even worse, Cuomo is offering himself as Phillippe Pétain: decrepit old general who surrounded the most powerful army in Europe without a real fight and invite occupation, extortion, violation, and *collaboration* in order to “save” the nation from battle

It’s gonna be better than sex and I cannot wait

2 things can b true: -NYS political system is so convoluted that it makes California look like a paragon of sober, good-governance. - I’ve voted NYS ballots and it’s clear as day why a candidate(s) might be listed more than once (sometimes multiple times!) to anyone who isn’t a *fucking moron*

Mike Johnson: ‘My Christian Faith Is More About Not Jacking Off Than Feeding The Poor’

I’m glad everyone is prioritizing having fun

I love us
