I want to announce again what should be a well established fact: No. Old. Food. For. Thanksgiving. We’re only eating food that was made the day of. Period. #nooldfood

13 Ws IN A ROW 👏 Cade Cunningham and the Pistons defeat Indiana and tie their franchise record with 13 straight wins!

Just found a variable with a p-value of 1 someone give me an award

Here is a new article just published co-authored w/@grantmitchell.bsky.social & @sharilfranke.bsky.social We developed new measures of party institutionalization & party strength that cover both democracies & autocracies around the world since 1970. #polisky journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...

Chuck Schumer Helps Pull Democrats Back From Brink Of Courage

Shutting down the government is a big deal. People have been hurt in big ways as a result of the decision. To have that suffering be for nothing—to re-open the government without actually having protected people’s health insurance and economic well-being—is unconscionable.

God knows I've never seen a party this capable of snatching defeat from the jaws of victory

Kinda indicative of the times that a large portion of the second hour of my church services (used for Gospel doctrine discussions most of the time) were used to figure out how the hell we are gonna feed all the starving people in our congregation and our neighborhood

the thing about this is that a) small states do not have any interests that are inherent to their size (no less than james madison understood this) b) the senate is organized along party lines which makes the small/big distinction almost irrelevant and c) the filibuster has never been used this way

One analytical model shows that, as of November 5th, the dismantling of U.S.A.I.D. has already caused the deaths of 600,000 people, two-thirds of them children. https://newyorkermag.visitlink.me/jUzNSc

Zohran Mamdani won young men 18-29 by 40 points. 40! And he did so by standing FOR economic justice, FOR Trans rights, FOR immigrant rights, FOR labor rights, FOR Palestinian rights, & FOR diversity—& still unapologetically dunking on Trump. He is anti-MAGA w/o throwing people under the bus. 1/2

What I find remarkable is that Prop 50 outperformed the 2024 margins in a good number of countries, even ones that went Republican. The image is obv not comprehensive (and not done counting), but some of the shift are pretty crazy. Look at Riverside! + 1.4 R to + 14 Prop 50

Why do conservatives make the best memes by accident???

we're burying the lede here, which is that what elon is saying is stupid as dogshit

I've had conversations with family that are essentially this. But unfortunately for them, in cases like SNAP, ACA, or Medicare/Medicaid, they won't be able merely brush off their skyrocketing cost of living with willful ignorance.

Sadly for the blue jays, the clock had struck midnight in Toronto, while it is merely 9:19 in LA

OHHHHHHH

Be kinda funny if the blue jays lost on the position they almost just won on

I'm screaming rn

Has November 1st always come right after October 31st? Seems kind of abrupt.

Reading Seva Gunitsky's work on hegemonic transitions and democratization. I'm amazed at how willing many liberal political scientists and theorists were persuaded to fascism Why then is the discipline so united against Trump today? Among many things, it is too profoundly stupid to be seductive

New instrumental variable incoming.

One of the constants of college football is that James Franklin does not prove his critiques wrong

Previously winless UCLA upsets Penn State

Trump is trying to make the Michigan attack on the Mormon church an attack against Christianity. But many of his MAGA Evangelical followers don't consider Mormons Christians.

This is my step father's stake building

Im sick. This was an attack meant to kill as many members of my community as possible

UCLA’s funds reinstated after yesterday’s court order! Thanks to the brave researchers and their amazing counsel, including Dean Chemerinsky, who brought suit. This is just another turn in the ongoing fight, but a great result for now.

A short 🧵 so everyone can learn that political violence is nothing new in America. Of the 1,331 Black officials who served during Reconstruction, 158 (10.4%) were subjected to political violence. 1/7

The history of American political violence is one that will test your resolve to read through atrocity after atrocity in a nation that claims to be a beacon of democracy.

Goff having 300+ yards and as many incompletions as touchdowns is insane
