do you know how horrid and evil you have to be to be in this much pain in public and everyone still hates you

Going to be very funny watching the Republicans act like this is a great plan

Me and @bvigeant.bsky.social turned Franklin Pierce into an unpleasant loser for our comic @philcomics.bsky.social and the world is better for it

Indian Illinois Department of Transportation employee stopped by ICE agents, questioned if he was 'aware' of NYC Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani

AI is more proof that there is no such thing as "business journalism." There are just people who are paid to retype press releases while pretending they are reporting.

Thunder Man, Apple Time 1987

They’re helping ICE agents stage at their store on Peterson by the way. Too late! Should have kept it woke! Good luck with the smiling or whatever though

Many years back I worked a pretty unpleasant job that paid terribly and the morale was low. The mgmt sent a survey asking now they could improve morale. After a little while they sent an updated survey with the note "don't mention a raise" Same energy

This is what oligarchy looks like: If you're Elon Musk, the richest man alive, Tesla gives you a $1 trillion pay package & Trump gives you a huge tax break. If you're a poor kid on SNAP, Trump appeals a court decision that would have prevented you from going hungry. Obscene.

i think we can justifiably slice this thinner. trans issues are of very low salience to the voters democrats need to win on their right flank, and of very high salience to the voters democrats need to win on their left flank

Some screenshots from itp_chicago IG. You can see how federal agents stake their presence around some of these communities in intersections in the middle of traffic and sidewalks in front of businesses. This feels very particular to the SW Side with Little Village being a prime target for this.

sorry guys i accidentally deleted the spreadsheet with the first drafts of homophobic potato chip brands and it turns out it was somehow load bearing to the entire driving system and the only guy who knows how to fix it got fired in the union busting so

thinking about how brandon johnson was targeted by editorials about crime in the loop before he was inaugurated.

Ellis also finds that the feds' use of force in Chicago "shocks the conscience."

Are bus routes and train frequency "bureaucracy"

My college town had one of these and it was extremely mediocre if you can believe it

Cool. What would you call the other wing then? www.nytimes.com/2025/11/03/u...

I don’t know how many times I’ve watched this video. I don’t know how we’ve gotten to the point where men in full balaclavas can abduct daycare teachers while they’re watching children. But I do know that this isn’t sustainable. Abolish ICE. There is no way to reform this.

A Border Patrol agent who shot a woman five times on Chicago’s Southwest Side later bragged about his shooting skills to friends: “I’m up for another round of ‘f--- around and find out.’” chicago.suntimes.com/immigration/...

The unstoppable force of gravity tugging his approval rating down lower than ever before versus the immovable object of Donald Trump.

This guy filled his pants with so much piss about this stuff that he fled Chicago

The encroachment of Christmas to the start of November means I just passed a house covered with red and green lights and wreaths next to a house still covered with Halloween stuff.

remember all those hot takes during the primary about how Mamdani was the candidate for rich white liberals? a "champagne socialist" ? yeah, about that

this morning, ICE went into a Spanish language immersion daycare and took a teacher from the building in front of screaming and crying kids and parents at dropoff and the daycare had to shut down for the day (near Lane Tech, where they were yesterday). Really hoping today's "theme" is not "daycare."

as a fellow Sim City 3000 player, I have unique insight into how Mamdani will run New York City. Typically I make a massive mess of things until the game throws me a liferaft in the form of a maximum security prison that pays an enormous amount of rent to buoy my fucked revenue. You can see that Zoh

A 34-year-old as a politician: My god he's like a baby. It's like they just elected an infant to be their mayor. A 34-year-old as an athlete: You have to admire the bravery of him attempting that dunk, knowing full well the grim reaper is right behind him.

It's nice when good things happen instead of bad things which I don't really care for

alongside everything else, its just worth noting people really fucking hate what's going on and its worthwhile knowing that

really inspiring victory speech by Zohran

Reminder that this is a winning position, and people support it

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

pretty good hater shit from mamdani on cuomo in this speech, much appreciated from me: a hater.

I knew that Mamdani had it; he had the people and did the work, and has been the clearest and most lucid in rejecting the untenable current state of things. But the vile, bigoted shit against him was so constant, and I am conditioned to that working better than I want. This feels like an exorcism.

Congratulations to a whole bunch of people I never heard of on their landslide victories in a whole bunch of races I never heard of. it was never in doubt.

Elected Democrats spending more time today praising Dick Cheney than Zohran Mamdani is a great case study in abject fucking moral failure.

This is a disturbing court filing: A top ICE official “shockingly answered ‘No’ when asked if he agreed ‘agree that it's unconstitutional to arrest people for being opposed to Midway Blitz?’”

That he may have done good things in the past as governor —setting aside his hideously disqualifying scandals— seems irrelevant in the face of the nihilistic, cynical, racist campaign that's standing for nothing other than that he's owed this.

Diane Ladd's unhinged villain performance in Wild At Heart is so damn good.

Still need more baseball? We found a CD in our archives containing dozens of unused voice lines from MLB Slugfest 20-03 rejected by the MLB. Here's some of our favorites.

Yeah this will make them more popular
