it’s also a thing where people can be convinced. the right got some people worked up about trans women in sports but possible to get people a lot more worked up about individual/parental rights, genital inspectors, etc

Correct. You can press an economic agenda that lifts everyone up without tearing some people down. It's not hard -- we just saw a good example of it. And yeah, this is NYC. But J.B. Pritzker and Andy Beshear have shown it works in other places too.

HOLY CRAP!

this is why people very far into the upper middle class should support building out a proper welfare state like @reprashida.govpeeps.us proposed the other day. you'd pay just a little for a tremendous amount of material security www.peoplespolicyproject.org/2025/11/20/r...

I'm mad as hell and I can't take it anymore, Charlie Brown

Cause we're going to shout it loud Even if our words seem meaningless It's like I'm carrying the weight of the world I wish that someway, somehow That I could save every one of us But the truth is that I'm only one girl

Finished My Hero Academia last night. A messy and overwrought ending in spots, but that's been a problem with the major arcs since at least the Overhaul one. Still, though, some of the lighter scenes made me smile. Far from the best Jump series, but these past ~9 years were a fun ride #manga

speaking as a virginia beach native if these kind of dudes are plotting against ICE then there is wide runway in public opinion for straight up abolishing the agency under a dem presidency

not sure who comes off worse dem leadership or the whiny billionaires

A heads-up 👇

Every story like this needs the tagline THEY DID THIS. All the stories of destabilization, damage, sabotage, punishment, impoverishment, corruption, failure that can and should be laid at the feet of the Trump Administration.

Every day I stand firmer in my belief that only a small cross section of a single generation living in an even smaller cross section of countries has the ability to handle 24/7 internet access

I seem to remember this classic pic from the birdsite 😸

We need some help for a sweet #SeniorCat. Please DM one of us if you can help! #CatsOfBluesky #Caturday

I read some of the stuff this morning but somehow missed that the dope in this game looks like this. I figured it was just some flying drone robot thing. Holy crap, dude!

Gonna wrap up two major Shonen Jump series soon! My Hero Academia will be the longest #manga I've ever read start-to-finish 😯 A little miffed that Red River omnibus 5 came with a bent corner, but in general, Kinokuniya is better at shipping books than Right Stuf was #lootpics

This kind of report is really dampening my enthusiasm, I must admit

Maybe it's time to make more noise about this? Last spring a thousand agents frantically redacted all mentions of Trump's name in the Epstein files. How does that square with what can and will be released?

Imagine trying to convince someone a decade ago that this sentence would be a 100% literally accurate description of the American political situation.

When you read these Epstein emails, you start to understand why so many prominent conservatives are obsessed with checking the genitals of children. It's a big thing for them!

Wasn’t expecting the Epstein scandal to blow up the New York Times but sure, why not

Pizzagate: If you replace the word “hot dog” with “little boy” and “pizza party” with “child sex orgy,” you will see the lengths these elites go to cover up their crimes. Real elite emails: Send me nude pictures of those 8th graders we abused last weekend post-haste! I am the Ambassador to Turkey.

Nothing like a proposal for a modest amount of lower-income housing nearby to find out who your neighbors are.

Next Zelda game should just aim for this visual style throughout. The fandom would go nuts

We had an important errand to run early this morning, so we stopped at a fancy Italian bakery to pick up breakfast on the way home 😋

Mamdani is going to implement Sharpedo Law. It's super effective!

THIS IS AMAZING. ALSO WHAT, IF ANYTHING, DID WE FORGET TO RUIN?

JUSTICE IS BEST SERVED LIGHTLY TOASTED

Yesterday, we donated to help Jamaica recover from Hurricane Melissa, and you should too, if you're able 🇯🇲 theafj.org

After those results, the Democratic response to GOP pressure to cave on the shutdown should simply be

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.

This is the result that really makes me think the rank and file are going to resist Trump doubling down. Massive shifts to Democrats all across Virginia. State Republicans toying with gerrymandering are going to hit the brakes thinking about what a similar shift would mean to their own seats.

Pretty, pretty good

one thing that other candidates need to learn from mamdani is how to deliver the most cold blooded attacks on an opponent with a smile on your face
