Happy thanksgiving Bluesky!!

A mayoral candidate saying maybe the city should cover the cost of bus rides gets the full socialism panic treatment before he even tries it. A sitting president taking billions of dollars worth of shares in private companies gets “I must say, a tad unusual” after it’s been going for nearly a year.

I like it. Has a nice ring.

Officials in Utah kstate game are clearly from Utah

No

Woohoo! Go bulldogs! Harvard pulling some bullshit in that last minute…

Mamdani probably got home, turned to his wife, and let out the longest, loudest “this fucking guy” of all time

having read the "challenger launch decision" earlier this year, feels like SpaceX is now where nasa was when boxed in to creating the shuttle and time and physics were running against them.

Legacy media folks were angry to be ignored for better voices and furious to hear what people thought of them on social media. Bosses were upset that a good labor market let employees leave their failure workplaces. Small town Whites were angry to see immigrants do better than them by working hard.

Guess they had to actually earn the big bucks this year? CEOs endorsed this shit overall and could have backed the nice black lady instead.

Ah, the good old days, when the scions of knickerbocker families would abuse under-age girls without fear of consequences.

these are not good people. prob time to shut down catholicism for awhile.

Yggy is quite right here

“I have no idea”

Ain't nobody gonna serve Dersh lunch in Martha's Vineyard at this point.

She knows where her paycheck comes from now.

If Dump dumps tariffs, will I still get my $2K check?

@mattyglesias.bsky.social does this type of thing merit another Harper's letter or nah?

Conservative criticism, even if bad faith, is treated as legitimate and spurs change. Liberal criticism, even if good faith, is sneered at and dismissed. A recipe for rot

Still too high...

Didn't need this to know Summers is an absolute piece of shit, but wow. He's like a billion pieces of shit.

yeah, this is the problem. Perhaps they should bundle them into an aggregation of some sort that publishes daily, weekly, or monthly... Really Goog and FB sucking all the ad dollars out make journalism/publishing an unsustainable biz.

The Democrats erred by not forcing Republicans to nuke the filibuster. But there was nothing Democrats could have done to get the ACA subsidies extended, because Republicans control all three branches and strongly believe that only rich people should have access to decent healthcare

Shaheen: "We've heard from Lucy a number of times that she's willing to hold the football for us to get this done. We've heard it from her brother Linus as well. So ..."

I heard from my cat that she is willing to consider never throwing up on a rug again. So now we'll see if she's really gonna work with me.

a good point to remember. and fuck those 8 senators.

yggy correct here.

If we don’t, how will we eliminate all the jobs? I mean think about it you fools

congress is a russian nesting doll of counter-majoritarian structures. seems to me that there's no need for a supermajority rule on top of that!

Respectfully, “I decided not to follow through on my threat to ignore the coin-operated lying nazi toy at the nazi bar because the rules of the nazi bar are if I’m rude to the toy, the owner would use that to make me less popular at the Nazi bar” is not actually making this look better for you!

I was told you couldn’t even do this if there was a pandemic killing millions

Wow, asking the supremos to starve kids was not what I had in mind when I posted this yesterday.

I think we need to stop calling it empathy and go back to calling it decency. It isn't a favour you're doing someone else, it's you proving that you aren't a fucking ghoul

Trump goes to court to starve kids should be a headline everywhere today

These are words put together, but they aren't an argument. Or sensical.

Well, yes. I think that is what they voted for.

This! This! This! do more of them dammit

exactly this. all time great manager of her caucus

JB can say this every day and 2x on Sunday.

well, crap.

From a party perspective, Reagan was right about Rs should not criticize other Rs. Dems should do the same.

Here are some "On Tyranny" free resources to use and to share bsky.app/profile/timo...

i’d also say that the GOP’s obsession with this gives candidates an opportunity to articulate and stand up for their values. “i refuse to make anyone feel like they don’t belong in my [state/city/community]. and i want everyone to live the best life they can achieve [insert policy slogan]”

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

Not gonna be upset if the Dersh follows through, but I would not plan to watch either.

If I can be serious here for a moment, the fact that so many establishment Dems backed him in the first place is really damning. They have to do better.

this is all somehow not the onion. but it is totally awesome.
