So there’s a website called Deer Of St Nicholas which posts Christmas wish letters from Ukrainian children who had their childhood stolen by the war, anyone can pick a child and get them their present and it’s that time of the year again to achingly scroll it for hours again

The Battle of Salamis saved Greek democracy. Did a salami sub just save ours?

I would like to order some freedom, hold the onions and mustard.

We heard about sandwich guy while driving east on I 80 in Nebraska. Immediately, we saw a Subway sandwich sign just before the next exit. We stopped to buy a foot-long to celebrate the news. With onions and mustard of course.

True… But the memes were worth the expenditure 😝 bsky.app/profile/madm...

If Subway were smart, they'd market a "Felony Footlong" immediately. Make it very affordable, too.

The grand jury refused to indict felony charges so DOJ brought a misdemeanor. The trial jury acquitted—note: that means that every single person on the jury voted for acquittal. There wasn’t even a single vote to convict. joycevance.substack.com/p/prosecutor...

BREAKING: A federal judge finds the Trump admin "did not comply" with his order to fund SNAP benefits. Judge John McConnell has verbally ordered the admin to *fully fund* SNAP benefits for the month of November — by tomorrow.

Those who agree - "I am willing to accept slower economic growth in Canada if it means greater economic independence from the United States" 🟢 All: 70% 🟢 Liberals: 86% 🟢 NDP: 77% 🟢 Conservatives: 55% Read it here: open.substack.com/pub/canadian...

This is officially one of the strangest pictures in American history, and I do not doubt that it will be considered iconic a hundred years from now. 100% serious here.

It BOGGLES THE MIND that there are Democratic senators considering caving to the GOP, who will then have ALL the leverage AND increase our insurance premiums for funsies HOLD. THE. LINE. SENATORS: Kelly—AZ Slotkin—MI Peters—MI Ossoff—GA Coons-DE Cortez Mason—DE Rosen—NV Shaheen—NH Hassan—NH King-ME

After Zohran Mamdani's win in the New York City mayoral election on Tuesday, Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez opened up about why his win is so important—and what it means for the future of the party.

A couple weeks ago a friend was telling me about someone she knew who had been on maternity leave, and said she had taken "the full year." I said, "A whole year? Wow, what kind of fancy job does she have that gives her a YEAR of leave?" and my friend looked surprised & said, "... welcome to Canada?"

The government will open after the TN-07 special election December 2nd, so Johnson has a vote to cancel Grijalva's on the Epstein discharge petition. Unless.... democrats WIN that special election...

Something crazy about the US and international copyright enforcement regime is that they consistently criminalize digital archiving when it is done for pro-social reasons, but consistently protect the reuse of archived materials by other parties when it is for commercial reasons

I wish someone had asked Johnson under what circumstance he would have cited Article I and told the WH to step back. #IEEFA

Decency ❤️‍🔥

I slept on it and I still can't get "I love when the horse girls run. It reminds me of walkable cities" out of my head

Finally a big city mayor raised on “YOU CAN’T CUT BACK ON FUNDING! YOU WILL REGRET THIS!”

Wow, huge credit to Katie and the rest of the nutrition team at @centeronbudget.bsky.social. USDA has now issued revised numbers because CBPP caught them either accidentally or intentionally making huge errors that would severely underfund SNAP, in direct violation of court orders.

Chicagoans chanting, "no ICE! No ICE!"

Huffing their own farts so much thinking they can reshape reality if they write enough stories. Voters said fuck you, we're not dumb. They went all in and burned down decades of hard work done by their predecessors for nothing.

Whether you’re heading out for your first hunt or continuing a generations-old tradition, the deer hunting opener is a special time in Minnesota. Great talking about the economic impact and Minnesota’s reputation as a deer hunting destination with hunters and conservationists.

BIG NEWS buried amid the blue wave: @govwesmoore.bsky.social announces that Maryland is IN when it comes to redrawing maps for 2026. "Come next November in Maryland, we will have fair maps."

The moral decay in this country is mortifying. We now have so-called “patriots” plagiarizing 9/11 tragedies and screaming that “7,357 days since NYC was forgotten?” All because Zohran Mamdani won an election? 👇🏾

If Biden had said anything half this dumb/crazy, he would have been removed under the 25th Amendment by the end of the week. The only reason Republicans don’t remove an obviously unfit president is because they’re no longer a political party. They’re a crime syndicate.

I’m still buzzing from last night democracy delivered! 💙🌊 Proud to cheer on my American friends from across the pond. 🇬🇧🇺🇸

The StepUp project, developed by Andrian Hordiichuk, offers a low-budget and easy-to-use trainer that will potentially help people with gait rehabilitation. He transformed LEGO pieces into a functional and innovative tool to support veterans. We are proud of young Ukrainians! 💙💛🧵

Lina Khan, as she is announced as being part of Zohran Mamdani’s transition team: “I think what we saw last night was New Yorkers not just electing a new mayor, but clearly rejecting a politics where outside corporate power and money too often.”

God bless us, everyone!

Los Angeles erupts in excitement as Zohran Mamdani is announced as the winner.

Jesus fucking Christ.

What last night proves, above all else, is that centrist Democrats like Zohran Mamdani, Bernie Sanders, and AOC can work together with moderate Republicans like Abigail Spanberger and Gavin Newsom to push back on MAGA fascism.

Watch Zohran Mamdani celebrate his victory with the city of New York! 🤩

Pour one out for all the rich Republicans who threatened to leave NYC if Mamdani won. Enjoy Tennessee or Arkansas-- I'm sure it will be very fulfilling and the social life will be totally comparable!

serious note: they're gonna try 5x harder to sabotage the midterms after tonight and we're gonna have to organize on a literally historic scale to stop them

Mamdani: "I wish Andrew Cuomo only the best in private life but let tonight be the final time I utter his name."

Tonight, California made it clear: we’re taking back our voice and democracy. Here’s to proof that when we act together, we win.
