Hey, friendly reminder that Scott Cawthon's donations to the GOP literally contributed to SNAP suspension and you shouldn't buy or stream Five Nights at Freddy's anything.

"World's first potential trillionaire has killed 600,000 people, including 400,000 children" is the only headline that anyone should ever read about Elon Musk

This fall has been an extra slow one for small businesses out here, and the tea house is $3.7k shy of where we need to be to make rent before late fees hit this month. All this to say, if you have some tea shopping to do or friends to point our way today, we'd sure appreciate it!

not always, actually. fat and thin people need food. chosen food, tasty food, food nutritious for your particular body, food of plenty. a dearth of food does not always cause weight loss. i've studied fatness for over 4 decades. glib comments about fatness are often wrong.

Got my first real tattoo today!

The union is calling on people to boycott btw!!

Members of Sound Transit's union bargaining group are currently testifying at the board's exec committee about the fact that the agency is blocking good-faith bargaining its employee union. One rep is calling ST's behavior "disheartening at best and disrespectful at worst." This is very unusual.

I'm one of the four fired employees. I was a writer & producer at Bon Appétit for nearly five years, during which I helped organize our union and sat on our bargaining committee. I am, to my knowledge, the only trans woman in our union and the only trans woman on editorial who doesn't work at Them

BREAKING: After months of stonewalling by Starbucks, unionized baristas just voted 92% to authorize a ULP strike unless Starbucks finalizes fair contracts & stops union busting. If forced, our baristas will strike in dozens of cities on November 13 – the company's busiest sales day of the year.

One day after election day, Seattle Police Chief Shon Barnes has fired Brian Maxey, SPD's COO, and chief counsel Becca Boatright. Per inside sources, Harrell told Barnes to wait until today. These are two very longtime civilian employees who've been shut out by Barnes, who brought in his own team.

I have to imagine far-right Catholics are really struggling with the fact that they can now hear this stuff in English directly from the pope.

In the Seattle mayor's race, Katie Wilson needs to close a 7.15% gap to beat incumbent Bruce Harrell. If Harrell wins by less than 1%, I'll be extra curious about why he paid $25,000 at the last minute to someone with a history of skirting the rules to help Harrell out. publicola.com/2025/10/30/h...

This is annoying...

Yesterday's election results must not diminish the urgency of grassroots organizing. First, because it is clear that Donald Trump will not leave power voluntarily. But even more importantly, because—as we saw under Biden—the Democrats will not solve any of these problems. Real change is up to us.

If at least 26 billionaires can waste at least $27 million trying to defeat Zohran Mamdani, then those same billionaires can afford to pay an extra 2% on their income over $1 million to make New York a better, thriving city for everyone — including themselves.

Reminder.

The victory of progressive candidates is a byproduct of our work caring for one another and building a better world, not the goal of our work.

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.

Here we are, airing live from Andrew Cuomo's election night party....

Cheney was so evil that him dying actually lifted a curse

As someone who does not live in New York, my desire is simple and, perhaps, a little self-serving: I would like to never see Cuomo's stupid fuckin' face or hear his stupid fuckin' voice ever again. It'd be great if that creep just lost this election and went away forever.

If you’re still in line, STAY IN LINE

Had the thought: "Let's take a single Benadryl and listen to the Deadly Arts soundtrack together." (Don't think I'll be adding that to my dating profile.)

This is tricky for me because there's a lot of genres I just don't engage with anymore for various reasons. Racing games, sports, FPS, etc. I large have no opinions on the greater genres even if I might enjoy older ones for nostalgia or one offs I happened to try.

From "Baahubali - The Eternal War - Part 1" (Indian movie, 2027). Co-produced with French animation studio Alcyde, and several "Arcane" artists. Directed by Ishan Shukla ("Star Wars Visions" S2, "Schirkoa" Indian-French movie...). Full trailer >> www.youtube.com/watch?v=RdUP...

Watching @serenedragon3.bsky.social play Pokemon Mystery Dungeon and her and @vicas3.bsky.social play FE Fates Revelation and wondering why they don't just make a FE-like Pokemon tactics game. It seems like Pokemon stuff would map really easily to that style of tactics game.
