Honestly, if Netflix saved “Wheel of Time” all would be forgiven. Well, maybe not all but most.

Give Jessie Buckley all the awards.

without birthright citizenship in the united states, you don't have a democracy and you don't have rule of law. revoking birthright citizenship gives fascists free rein to purge the country of literally anyone they don't like. it opens the door to atrocities and mass murder. i am not exaggerating.

lol everyone finding out white men benefit from preferential treatment in college admissions is sending me. May the consequences of said actions begin. 🤷🏿‍♀️ hechingerreport.org/an-unexpecte...

The world is too much. It makes it hard to remember to post here and other places to connect with you. I’m sorry. I’m here.

Everything about this man is so critically off-putting and shady and weird and fabricated and just plain GROSS and YUCK I am so tired of so many grifters outright succeeding on stupidity alone.

ah, perhaps instead of pumping millions into endless factional infighting Dem donors could invest in making local Dem organizations genuine civic spaces that can reach people during and between elections

Democrats just ran the table, winning the marquee races -- NJ and VA sweeps, NYC mayor, CA prop, PA Supreme Court -- and lower-profile races in red and purple states across the nation. If the media you're reading or watching paints this as anything but a massive win, stop reading or watching them.

There’s no reason ever again for any Democrat to suggest moderating on trans rights. There was never a moral reason but now there’s no political reason either. Somebody tell Gavin Newsom and Pete Buttigieg. it’s joe-ver.

Zohran Mamdani says on NY1 he didn't get a congratulatory call from either Andrew Cuomo or Eric Adams last night. He says he got a congratulatory call from Curtis Sliwa, though.

so it turns out that fascism is unpopular

CONFIRMED: Georgia Democrats have won their first statewide elections for non-federal offices since *2006.* The two Dem challengers, Alicia Johnson and Peter Hubbard, have ousted two GOP Republican commissioners on the state's utility commission.

I feel like this is an important aspect to emphasize, loudly, to everyone who endorsed Cuomo. they chose to side with a known sexual predator for personal gain and frankly that should be disqualifying for public office. you knew who he was and decided the women he hurt were acceptable losses

Mamdani has won more votes than the entire population of any of the 5 smallest states.

“He doesn’t have a mandate” are you fucking kidding? Dick Cheney died the day Zohran is elected he has the mandate of HEAVEN

Detroit has a Black woman millennial mayor

Terrible scenes just minutes into the new socialist regime in New York as literally hundreds of billionaires discover mamdani already living rent free in their heads

Mamdani cracks 1M votes, the first NYC mayor to do so since John Lindsay in 1969

To all consultants who suck the life out of Democratic politics + @ezraklein.bsky.social Tonight’s victories were won under the Big Tent of reproductive freedom, trans rights, equity, civil rights, economic justice, young people and low propensity voters. Don’t drag us to an uninspiring “middle”

"The day NYC elects a Muslim Mayor will be the day I die." --Dick Cheney probably

“What keeps us going, ultimately, is our love for each other, and our refusal to bow our heads, to accept the verdict, however all-powerful it seems. It’s what ordinary people have to do. You have to love each other. You have to defend each other. You have to fight.” —Mike Davis

Normal people are just sick to fucking death of the cruelty and meanness

Sobering news for a lot of top Democrats, tonight, as they realize people would prefer they actually fucking do something.

Take note, Harris.

We have literally A/B tested it in real elections: Being a weak nothing on trans rights loses you elections and being strong on trans rights wins elections. We can put the issue to rest. Any new candidate must be strong on trans rights to win the votes to take the Presidency. We know this.

“I wish Andrew Cuomo only the best in private life”

Democrats can just run this clip as an ad

It’s even more extreme than that if you want full self-sufficiency. The average US diet requires ~2 acres of land (cropland + pasture)/person/year. So a family of 4 would need ~8 acres. (It’s less if you eat more plants/fewer animal proteins than avg American, but it’s still a looooot of land.)

Andrew Cuomo and everyone on his political team are virulent gutter racists. This is disgusting trash. Eternal shame.

Vote Mamdani because Cuomo is going to help your employer replace you with AI slop

It should be career-ending for the House minority leader being unwilling to endorse the (wildly popular) Democratic nominee for New York City mayor.

"It's OK, they were 14" is getting really tired.

If wot was cancelled because of politics, good. That means it was too much for the status quo. Too loud. Too full of women. Too queer. Too full of actors, crew, etc. speaking out against injustice and genocide. I think if I believe that’s really why, I can sleep better at night.

I have decided on a date and time for @sunflowersedai.bsky.social memorial service. Anyone on #WotSkies who wanted to come, please message me for details or if you can't make it, please donate to www.fmaware.org/donate/ in her name

Man, I'm sorry, but reading all these AI generated essays from students, it just sucks all the joy out of everything. It's exhausting, makes you into a weird paranoid cop, grinds you down, wastes your time, makes you feel like shit about everything. Fuck this shit technology and all its enablers.

During recent attacks against diverse books in libraries and schools, very few experts on children's books were consulted. It's the same with AI and writing: scholars of composition and rhetoric have spent decades thinking about these matters! How about consulting high school English teachers?

This does bring a smile to my face www.engadget.com/entertainmen...

Overnight, Trump and Republicans in Congress shut down the federal government. They shut it down because they’re determined to strip healthcare from millions of Americans, to enrich the billionaires they serve, to continue the assault on our rights. We must fight back.

Tonight on a NY1 interview, Andrew Cuomo described Zohran Mamdani as "an existential threat" to New Yorkers and the Democratic Party. I can't say strongly enough that this is despicable, dangerous, irresponsible language. I've never held Cuomo in high esteem; let this election be his banishment.

Hegeseth saying “FAFO” in his speech about preparing for war was a dog whistle to the Proud Boys. Let’s hope these generals refuse to take up arms against citizens because the proudboys certainly won’t hesitate. www.reuters.com/investigates...

Two notable fantasy shows were cancelled by the streaming services over the last few years -- #WarriorNun and #TheWheelOfTime -- and both of those topped our recent poll of cancelled all-stars that people want to come back.

I still haven’t forgotten those fuckers cancelled the wheel of time I’ll never forget

Hillary Clinton referred to SOME Trump supporters as”deplorable,” and the political media had a meltdown. Trump refers to all Democrats as anti-American radical communists and “the enemy within,” and it’s no big deal. His reckless and dangerous demonization has been fully normalized.

The president said, in a televised speech, that he's sending his new, less restrained, more violent military into US cities to practice their brutality on immigrants and minorities, to better train them to apply that brutality to other countries. He said this out loud.

In any other country, if federal agents fired upon journalists when unprovoked — what would we call it? If federal agents marched down streets demanding papers — what would we say? Authoritarianism — let’s not pretend it’s something else when it happens in our American cities.

Also, if you get defensive over this, take a breath and examine why (internally)
