If Mamdani was able to go against majority Dem wishes and $40mil in funds and still win, just by campaigning as a candidate truly for the people, whats stopping a new party from rising up?

Angry at the government? Finding yourself feeling like all is lost? Remember that governments are just humans, and humans can be ... removed from power. Some peacefully. Others perhaps not. But all can be removed.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person. The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person. People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives. And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

Caving on the shutdown won’t make you “moderate.” It makes you WEAK! Giving Republicans what they want for NOTHING more than a “promise” of a vote and risking millions of Americans’ healthcare isn’t compromise—it’s surrender and it’s the most RADICAL thing you could do in this moment. 1/

It should be that simple.

No health care, no deal.

I’m voting no on the continuing resolution that would double healthcare premiums for 20 million Americans, kick 15 million people off Medicaid & allow 50,000 Americans to die unnecessarily every year. All to give $1 trillion in tax breaks for billionaires.

My statement on the proposed Senate deal

I can’t support this bill. It doesn’t meet the urgency of the moment and deliver actual relief that can pass both chambers of Congress. I’ve been clear that we need real action to stop the devastating health care cost increases that are hurting millions of families. 1/2

Schumer needs to go. Half the dems need to go. This is a major problem. Dems, you got nothing out of this.

This is not a deal — it's an empty promise. Trump and his Republican Congress are making healthcare more expensive for the middle class and ending it for working families. Time for Democrats to stand tall for affordable healthcare. www.politico.com/news/2025/11...

Killing the ACA is a very good way to piss off many people with nothing left to lose.

I'm very glad I'm not still a professional Graphic Designer. AI has decimated the field. So many ads are just AI slop now.

RIP KeePassXC

lol. Also, lmao even. Possibly even "rofl", but no one seems to use that anymore.

Fuckin LOL

You can tell a youtuber used AI to write their script when a certain word is used many times and not once does the youtuber pronounce it even close to correctly.

Its fuckin' cold outside.

Thank fuckin god.

😎😎😎😎 GOOD THINGS CAN STILL HAPPEN 😎😎😎😎

So just a heads up being supportive of trans folks wins you elections.

Blue never looked so good.

Andrew Cuomo, what a fucking loser.

Jack Ciattarelli, what a fucking loser.

BREAKING: Zohran Mamdani (D) elected mayor of New York City - DDHQ projection

Guess they didn't learn from last years horrible AI ad. I gave them one more chance. I'll just drink Pepsi products until they use AI too. On a side note, Aldi has pretty good stevia sweetened soda. Its worth it if you don't mind the stevia flavor.

If I were to vote in person, and the polling place received a bomb threat, good fucking luck getting me to leave. This shit is ridiculous.

I voted. You should too!

Trump is panic posting through today's elections

A Trump endorsement should mean political death. No one should be seeking his endorsement.

Dick Cheney finally died? I thought he'd live forever.

TOMORROW is Election Day, New Jersey! Polls will be open from 6:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. tomorrow, November 4. If you are planning to vote-by-mail, make sure you return your mail-in ballot via secure drop box. 🗳️ Find your polling place OR secure drop box location at Vote.NJ.Gov.

Why has no one sued Trump over Hatch Act violations? Hes been doing this shit since 2016.

Today, I signed an Executive Order establishing the Task Force on the Federal Suspension of SNAP Benefits. While President Trump and Washington Republicans refuse to act, New Jersey will mobilize to mitigate this avoidable crisis.

I will also note that in Section 9, the Education section, Canva admits that they will give student data to groups like OpenAI, Atlassian, AWS, and others. This is a REALLY bad acquisition for people who were looking to bail from Adobe.

Hey so HEADS UP ABOUT THIS!!! www.canva.com/policies/pri... Canva EXPLICITLY STATES that they WILL use your work to train AI and ML models. In Section 2 they explicitly state that, as well as examples of what they'll train on. I recommend AGAINST "Affinity by Canvas;" get a V2 license if you can.

Trump says the U.S. will "start testing our Nuclear Weapons on an equal basis" with other countries

RIP PIERRE ROBERT. A Philly music LEGEND. His shoes are impossible to fill and the hole left in our airwaves by his death will be felt for years to come. Thank you for your service all these years, good citizen.

RIP Pierre Robert, Phillys most well known DJ. WMMR won't be the same without the grooviest hippie I've ever met.

At Bear Den Hosting, we believe that to have a healthy Internet, each component's operators must act as a force for good, not neutrality. To that end, in addition to blocking all of Facebook ("Meta"), Twitter/X, Gab, and Truth Social, we are now blocking the Grokipedia and Groktube domains as well.

I can say as someone who goes out of my way to dodge *all* AI use, it is so mentally taxing that I can see why people just don't bother after a point. This garbage is infested everywhere and avoiding it takes actual work. It's NOT impossible, but damn is it hard.

BREAKING: Israeli PM Netanyahu says that Hamas has violated the ceasefire and has ordered "immediate, powerful" strikes in Gaza. Hamas is also accusing Israel of violating the ceasefire.

Use Linux. Also move away from Azure and use @bear-den.org. I'm tired of this shit.

Fucking Harry Potter fan accounts don't belong on Bluesky.

Most unpatriotic patriot in history.

The world would be a much better place without social media and cell phones.

Remember when Philly chased Patriot Front out with 2x4s? Same Nazis, different label.

I can't answer this in-thread but I want to reiterate that my business, @bear-den.org, is always available for hosting for people who are looking and I am happy to work with folks individually on what may be needed. ❤️

Bitcoiners are so fucking stupid. LUL
