Rochester folk supergroup has been on a tear of amazing singles in the lead up to their first album georgieee.bandcamp.com/album/contam...

“Is this the DSA happy hour?” Jason asked a table of guys hanging out at Arbeiter (he really had it in his head that there’s a standing Friday DSA happy hour here) “I mean…we’re DSA,” replied the guys after a long, confused pause, “but this isn’t a DSA thing. We’re talking about Linux.”

At the start of the grand prix in this rematch of speed racer my boyfriends cat started loudly grooming my hair for the first time

A Starbucks manager left this comment on one of our posts 👀

This is ultimately the same problem that is leading people to think that the only solution is assassinations. It views, at its maximum, a whole generation of political leadership who got us here as abberational, and seeks to fix things by removing the aberration

mainline democrats are selling out trans women for cops, doubling down on backing genocide and holy war so long as it's declared properly, and refusing to prioritize removing a fascist. meanwhile local dsa elects a trans woman to steering on the back of her anti apartheid work. hell yeah dsa

Let me get this straight: Bari Weiss has radically edited the new Trump interview on 60 Minutes? Let's not forget that Weiss lost her mind over standard editing of a Kamala Harris interview in 2024. But as Juliet shows, this Trump editing goes way beyond standard broadcast practices. Good grief.

A non-trivial portion of my Last War in Albion research database, including a plurality of my early 21st century Morrison material, consists of Wayback Machine captures of Newsarama interviews. Outright closure is the last step of a loss that began years or decades ago, but still, a massive loss.

this is essentially why i continue to say most tech people are f*scists mattdpearce.substack.com/p/muskism-as...

The New York Post unintentionally running a rad as hell recruitment campaign for the DSA here

Fractures Emerge Between GOP’s Pro-Pedophilia, Extremely Pro-Pedophilia Wings

the supreme court overturned a lower court and ruled, with no explanation, that cops can crush an unarmed man to death. they don’t even bother to explain themselves anymore—this is an authoritarian, anti-democratic institution.

These are the powerful conversations we are having, and with our friends from Orlando DSA carpooling to South Florida, we collectively knocked on over 1,200 doors this weekend.

these are the numbers from *FL-23* where a non-elected DSA guy (Oliver Larkin) is challenging Moskowitz (who just today declared he did not support any restrictions on Israel aid)

Our ears are burning. As the newest conservative redbaiting project launches, we will continue our effective organizing, alongside everyone who wants to resist the rise of fascism and build a better world. And yes, absolutely we're in favor of abolishing ICE.

i guess those celebrating soras death didnt get the memo that some of us need daily personalized greetings from james bond—for mental health

It's probably a good idea to listen to the people who were saying "abolish ICE" ten years ago and pay attention to what dangers they're pointing out now and maybe get on board with that stuff too

i'm sure it's actually a homan "gentler face of mass deportation" reform theatre thing but it's pretty funny that the only place ice goons haven't worn masks is in the place you're most likely to get sick or make someone else sick

Here’s my interview with Shishir Mehotra, the CEO behind Grammarly’s “expert review” feature which attributed writing advice to people - including me lol - without permission. Or, as you will hear us talk about a lot, compensation. www.theverge.com/podcast/8987...

the importance of being able to call what's happening in Gaza a genocide is that—at this point—any position besides "there is a genocide taking place in Gaza" requires you to ignore the academic consensus, the international consensus, increasingly the domestic political consensus, and your own eyes

genuinely why does anyone report anything he says at all as if it means anything still

MUG Applications are open to April 5th! docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

Thanks again Hasan for the fantastic conversation today. Your community (and soundboard) exceeded all our expectations. Together, we raised over $56,000, the most our campaign has achieved in a single day.

To all the Floridians and Americans here, Oliver Larkin is running for Congress from Florida's 23rd District and he's a very good candidate, a DSA member who has a strong policy in environment, economy, foreign policy, LGBTQIA+ and more. This interview is really good and worth watching:

Happy 10 year anniversary to @rocdsa.bsky.social

perfect representation of the vicious asininity of our persecution and the banal mechanisms of its implementation: these regular-ass people, the staff at the dmv, dutifully inflicting whatever absurd degradation they're told, no matter how blatantly, cruelly pointless. would you do that? will you?

Back in 2023, for the 20th anniversary of the war in Iraq, I did a "where are they now?" article about the pundits who cheered on the U.S. invasion www.readtpa.com/p/where-are-...

Theres a kind of lefty in this country in the hundreds of thousands whos aware of the socialist movement but thinks themselves above all of it and cynically postures that theyre waiting for someone else to build something thats serious enough for them. You gotta get over your ego now

Literally teaming up with Israel to attack Iran makes people treating the pretext with anything but searing contempt all the more ludicrous.

Based on what I’m seeing at work and with colleagues, it sure seems like USian society really fucked up in creating a culture where people will put in Herculean amounts of effort to avoid admitting someone else knows more than them about any topic.

It's depressing how quickly the Trump regime's cold-blooded murders in the Caribbean Sea have become background noise in the US. At least 150 people killed.

This empire thats falling apart has so many ways to do "politics" that are just as stressful as real life organizing and shit only youre giving your life's purpose to arguing about a TV show

Disunited, the workers are nothing. United, they are everything.

The passive voice here--oh I just want nice public spaces which requires that homeless people be put out of sight somehow--is a part of why this country keeps getting worse and police budgets keep getting higher.

"The President Must Be Removed From Office" Zeteo is calling today for Donald Trump to be democratically removed from office, via impeachment or the 25th Amendment. The evidence, as laid out by Zeteo's @andrewperez.bsky.social in today's First Draft, suggests he is unfit. zeteo.com/p/time-for-t...

I believe in body positivity for moggers. All who mog are beautiful

I see the word mog far too often

it's so funny to try to legitimize a moronic argument by claiming that it is supported by a growing movement of diverse thinkers and then you list the people who belong to that movement and every single one is stupid and/or racist

I feel like we stopped making civil war movies in the mid 2000s, partially because you had less reenactors, which begs the question--why were reenactors such a 90s thing
