Apropos of nothing, this week on the podcast we watched a movie in which judges who aided a fascist regime get put on trial after the regime is toppled

stop doing phrenology with the computer!!

Genocide and trans rights purity tests are good actually.

this is why everyone hates her and you

When people talk about the excesses of MeToo, they have to lie, because the reality is that there was no massive social reckoning forcing people to believe survivors or hold perpetrators accountable. In fact, there has been a significant backsliding and new punishments in rejection of MeToo

I really wish people would stop qualifying these ICE raids as being done "without a warrant." I don't care if they DID have a warrant, you should not be dragging teachers out of schools in front of kids regardless!

To be clear: This is Islamophobic dog whistle. Also: Cancel your fucking NYT subscription.

If we can’t make you fear his politics or his aloof wife, we’ll make you fear his facial hair.

Very funny thing to say about the most rigged election in modern American history.

I really think we won’t get out of this if we can’t even recognize that what is happening now is not new, it is not those bad “other” people, it is white America

Few deserved this moment more.

Lindsey should never have been put in the position where she had to display the courage she did, but she still absolutely did. I have nothing but the deepest respect for her. There are a lot of reasons I am glad Mamdani beat Cuomo but this picture right here, the joy, top of the list for sure.

I don’t understand the machinations of that man, he tried to make a bridge his daddy.

i hate it when something is described as "inscrutable." you have no idea the types of things im able to scrute

If you were one of the fortunate few, you would one day understand and accept this. However, you are not and you will not.

Chicago: ICE heavily active in West Ridge and Edgewater. Landscapers heavily targeted. Put on your whistles and patrol if you can.

It's almost like... like maybe the fascism *never* actually arose from working class "economic anxiety"... like maybe the working class *weren't* actually the ones radicalised by bourgeois resentment of "cancel culture" and "wokeness"... like maybe the working class have... more pragmatic priorities

Oh look at that it’s just Keir Starmer being an actual comic book villain again

I seem to remember Labour very recently making attack ads about how @zackpolanski.bsky.social and the Greens didn't care about the environment and that Labour are the REAL party of climate action. Labour are an absolute disgrace on every conceivable level.

I knew it would take less than a day for a tiktok dj to make something.

the ADL is launching a "Mamdani Monitor." Beyond absurd. It couldn't get more hateful and Islamophobic if it tried, and no it will not make Jews or anybody else safer

If you feel a little better about the world today- help a family in Gaza feel the same ❤️

BLUESKY ELDER ELECTED NYC MAYOR

what happens when this doesn't work either? every major social media network is trying this kind of censorship and it has worked to increase support for Israel for exactly none of them. their attempts can't keep up with the sheer number of atrocities and users who are outright hostile to Israel

The tech giant deleted the accounts of three prominent Palestinian human rights groups — a capitulation to Trump sanctions.

Wokeyo Drift

basically every 2024 truism is dead. Trump did not build a lasting multiracial coalition or turn young men into committed Republicans. You don’t need to cave on trans rights to win. The pundits have nothing left to tell you.

Eric Adams is amazing because when he won every media person was leaping over each to go “this is the normal sane leadership that the political left doesn’t understand normal sane Americans crave” and then every day since that Eric Adams has been like “Leprechauns are real and I’m going to cook one”

Dual citizenship rules. I’m walking around New York today prouder than hell. Tomorrow, when Trump ends school lunch in 6th grade to amortize the shrimp cocktail budget of his ballroom, I will once again be a stern, disapproving African imploring you all to take yourselves more seriously as a nation.

unfortunately once he is sworn in they have to infect him with Mayoral Madness, as is tradition

Well done for winning Mamdani now please get ready for a deluge of bad faith actors personally blaming you as if you were Batman every time a single crime or bad thing happens anywhere in New York

me @ Labour politicians re: Zohran Mamdani

the downside is I’m devastated that we can no longer use this tweet, which was one of my favourites

Quest failed: Prove your Conjuration mastery to The Imperial Cult by demonstrating your Flatulence

I think the rumors about Necromancers are completely untrue. I've heard some crazy things, and I don't believe any of them.

Absolutely insane. Labour would have purged and smeared someone like Zohran Mamdani. Wes Streeting's politics align far more closely with Andrew Cuomo. The lessons from Mamdani are about how to defeat both the right - and the bankrupt "centre".

Cause we don’t have a king. We have a ruling class. They are called capitalists. Hope this helps

elections should follow mario rules

sorry but mamdani and cuomo should have worn blue and yellow hats, respectively

Are you stupid or something

Mamdani recently delivered a heartfelt speech about how his loved ones faced persecution in America due to islamophobia. Muslim persecution included mosques being spied on and other civil rights violations by the government all made legal by the patriot act, which Dick Cheney was a key architect of.

Hard Drive was saddened to her about the passing of Molag Bal. We may not have always agreed with his methods, but he worked to enslave all of humanity and harvest their souls with the grace and poise the position demanded. Our thoughts go out to all his Daedric brethren in this difficult time.

Do something Dick Cheney would have hated and help a Palestinian family ❤️

The failure of the “blue no matter who” crowd to rally behind Mamdani really just lays the reality of that position bare, doesn’t it?

anyway, as always, death to amerikkka
