@mayor.nyc.gov: "If you are a Mario Kart fan, government is Yoshi and philanthropy is the Golden Mushroom, that edge we need to beat Bowser on the Rainbow Road. To belabor this metaphor even further, Bowser is corporate greed in this scenario."

hundreds of years of electoral theory and it really does just boil down to "have you guys tried having a hot and charismatic guy do largely popular things", political scientists are seething

I don’t. I don’t tolerate any PAC money. I view it all for what it is. Bribery. But let me ask you a question of my own. Why are politicians and propagandists singling out AIPAC as an acceptable PAC to take money from. Why aren’t they advocating as hard for taking money from other PACs?

IT ABSOLUTELY THE FUCK IS NOT

The Welsh rail system is powered by hymns. All passengers have to sing in order for the train to move, when sung in harmony the train goes faster. When it crosses the border into England they have to use diesel… #trains #Wales

"At some point if the ship doesn’t turn around, maybe it will start taking on water or listing badly or hit an iceberg, or perhaps the iceberg has been there all along and is named Donald Trump."

Wes Moore needs to be on everyone’s shortlist, should he throw his hat in the ring for 2028. “Any of these people who are thinking about 2028, I need to see that you’re taking 2026 seriously… What are you doing right now to protect, to heal, and to build?” “I’m hungry, but I’m not thirsty.” 🔥

In 2016 a victim told the FBI that she witnessed Trump threatening to kill a girl—and her entire family—if she told anyone about him raping her. Republicans: "That's his negotiating style."

how much money does the marine corps lose

sometimes I think the democratic party is some kind of absurdist art installation, where the stated goal is to win elections and the actual goal is to never do that
