Hellllllo Barcelona. Hit me up if you're at #MozFest!

"And then I’ll get mad and I’ll yell at it and be like, ‘You made me fail. Why did you do this?’ And it will talk back to me." Couldn't have happened to a nicer influencer.

guys I’m sorry but have you looked through Getty images for yesterday 💀

someone got indicted on the basis of “transporting antifa materials” for allegedly transporting a box of ZINES THEY’RE PROSECUTING PEOPLE FOR DOMESTIC TERRORISM OVER ZINES

"Don't get on your Ezra Klein nonsense" is a bar

$ wn ball-buster -over 1. ball-buster, ball-breaker -- (a demanding woman who destroys men's confidence) 2. ball-buster, ball-breaker -- (a job or situation that is demanding and arduous and punishing; "Vietnam was a ball-breaker")

Seeing this bubble grow from the front row and yelling into the void as we head towards 2008 part deux is making me lose my mind.

Seems fine and normal

MrBeast hates Zohran because if people have access to basic necessities, it will demolish the Giving People Those Necessities As Part Of A Saw-Inspired Game Show industry

If Kareem ever has me on his show, my hot take is to abolish airport duty free shops

heads up to anyone who holds trans kids near: amy harmon from the nyt is searching for and having a hard time finding people to interview to find out exactly what trans kids are doing when their care is limited or cut off, and for purposes of community safety, please shut the fuck up around her.

Friends— here it is. Updated & expanded thanks to the space afforded to me in the @therumpus.net & the guidance of the brilliant @roxanegay.bsky.social’s edits. The win centers Muslims humanity — but what does that mean in a country that rejects that? therumpus.net/2025/11/05/z...

Can you imagine the Douthat headlines with a Cuomo win? "Voters give a mandate for stability"

As a headsup for anyone on Vyvanse, you should go check your lot numbers. www.health.com/adhd-medicat...

NINETY TWO PERCENT of Starbucks union members just voted to authorize a strike, kicking off on 13 November unless they (finally) get a fair contract: www.cbsnews.com/news/starbuc... #labor #1u

Weirdest engagement I get on this platform is when people explain my skeet to me. Didn't quite get this on Twitter, and on Mastodon is mostly of the "um akshully" variety. Like I know who Dick Cheney is.

Lina Khan is part of the transition team?? Let's goooooo.

Yep. Newsom made his bed for political expediency. He can sleep it in. He is an enemy of the working class, the homeless, and trans folks.

Lots of great things about it, but Mamdani’s victory is also an encouraging win over the evil AI hate slop that Cuomo was tossing at the virtual wall at the end there. Deepfakes are dangerous but they are also a sign of despotic desperation.

frame: smart glasses are just like an iPhone negation: no, they're different in important ways kirby: THIS IS A SURVEILLANCE TOOL. THEY WANT TO NORMALIZE CONSTANT SURVEILLANCE. they are making a bad faith comparison bc they want to move the boundaries of acceptable behavior

Did they print this on 8.5x11" paper? Is this a 5 year old's birthday party?

dawg not the steakhouse wedding font

make them answer for why they care more about checking a child’s underwear than whether you can afford your electric bill!

Women did well yesterday.

The body is an archive No I will not explain

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

You listening, Randi? This is the kind of city leadership UFT members want

A good morning only to the Zohran straights

I need more people to understand the movement that could be brewing here in Georgia if this young man only lost by 87 votes in COBB COUNTY.

Of course this diva would hate the beret

Also a surprise upset in St Paul, Minnesota as Kaohly Her, who came to the United States at age 4, becomes the city’s first Hmong (and first Asian) mayor. www.startribune.com/st-paul-mayo...

Zohran breaks a weird streak in American politics, in that he is the child of a foreign-born radical professor but has not become a centrist

Fartlow warning others against surprise signs for Free Parking (which won't happen in Zohran's New York anyhow)

Beating a guy in an election and quoting his dad in your victory speech is a FLEX.

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

We 100% need a Mamdani remix of this

COME ON NOW MR MAYOR

sorry it's still so funny we woke up to Dick Cheney dying today too

“Years from now may our only regret be that this day took so long to come” Zohran Mamdani

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

The latest, 11pm: —Prop 50 wins —VA Dems flip Gov, LG, AG; & gain in House —Dems win NJ-Gov —Mamdani wins —PA Dems win supreme court —ME vote-restricting measure loses —Krasner & Bragg win —JD's half-brother loses —GA Dems flip 2 statewide offices + Dem are leading to flip so many local offices.

We're so back
