Spotify is crashing HARD because of the boycott. Their stock dropped 11% in value over the last month. Let’s keep this going! Tell everyone you know to boycott Spotify. There are plenty of alternatives that don’t run ICE advertisements and screw over artists. We made it easy at boycottspotify.com.

The world would be immensely better if more religions and their believers had even a tenth of the dedication the Sikhs do to doing good for people with no gatekeeping or expectations of anything other than "you are a fellow human in need and we can help you"

Folks, if you are hungry, please contact your local Sikh gurdwara. Or just show up for langar, which most gurdwaras do several times a week, for a free meal. Lots also do weekly or monthly drives giving out groceries. No conversion necessary. Feeding anyone who is hungry is a key part of Sikhism.

Bumping this again because help makes all the difference.

NEW: @govpritzker.illinois.gov's office says 3 masked ICE agents stopped & questioned an IL Department of Transportation employee working in Park Ridge about his immigration status & whether he had traveled to New York and his awareness of NYC Mayor-elect @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social before leaving.

P.S. And more than any one policy or position, people want clarity. They want purpose. They want to feel good about where they live. They want to feel like we’re all in this together. So while the policies are specific to NYC, the relationality, the earnestness is what can work anywhere. /end 2

…your lift is EASIER. People WANT to help. Of course this requires a steadfast, values-based approach— one that will face immense opposition as well. But I think the kid has the right ideas. And more so the right motivation. People don’t want politicians. They want leaders. Solutions. /end

He fostered not just solidarity, but a sense of belonging. A sense of common urgency and care. Now I’ve already seen folks snotty about “let’s see what he’s able to accomplish…” but the truth is that when you’ve done the relationship building, when you continue to JOIN PEOPLE /2

The takeaway that people are somehow STILL MISSING from the Mamdani victory is that it was RELATIONAL. He showed up EVERYWHERE, and well before he was even considered a real contender. He made his candidacy about YOU, not him. That takes hella consistency to pull off. It’s hard work. /1

Came here to say this, but Jamelle Bouie has this covered. 👇 When the Democratic tent includes candidates like Spanberger and Mamdani, there is no crisis, or fight, for the party. IT’S A COALITION, NOT A POINT ESTIMATE.

i think we can justifiably slice this thinner. trans issues are of very low salience to the voters democrats need to win on their right flank, and of very high salience to the voters democrats need to win on their left flank

idk if anyone who knows insurance shit wants to reach out and indicate if there's Any recourse for me here let me know to my knowledge im totally fucked because everyone who verified that it was in-network/covered did it verbally or over the phone so i have no records of that actually happening

This is the very best thing about jury nullification, and you have to read it BEFORE you get called to jury duty. beyondcourts.org/sites/defaul...

New episode of the @holocaustpod.bsky.social. And a timely one about attempts to evade responsibility for complicity! bsky.app/profile/holo...

a couple years ago i contracted with one of subway's ad agencies for a small rotating sandwiches collab that ultimately they decided not to publish and i never did anything with. today feels like a good day to post one of them. here's my favorite subway sandwich, the veggie delight

“.. in a group Signal chat, .. he wrote in part: ‘I fired 5 rounds and she had 7 holes. Put that in your book boys.’” @reuters.com #Chicago www.reuters.com/world/us/bor...

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

Rep. Yassamin Ansari has set up a table and this sign outside Speaker Johnson’s office.

You may be able to indict a ham sandwich but you cannot convict one

Incredible that multiple juries have found sandwich hurling to be comically not assault

the latest in the social media postings of Virginia state Senator Louise Lucas:

When the vice president of the US (under a shambling corpse of a president) is defending the Johnson–Reed Act — directly responsible for the US's refusal to allow in Shoah refugees, indirectly responsible for the murder of 200,000 Jews — I really don't care how scared you are of a Muslim

The ADL is also playing a role in delegitimizing antisemitism in the US among people on the left, IMO, when they do stuff like this, which is incredibly dangerous.

Seeing lots of crash outs today from folks who think Mamdani is antisemitic and that his success means sky is falling. Same folks who haven’t said a PEEP about Trump + the GOP’s antisemitism three alarm fire. (Elon’s Nazi salute? Nick Fuentes? Crickets).

Can’t be too careful.

If anyone is looking to hire a kickass speech writer who can deliver THAT kind of speech, HMU.

You fascists bound to lose.

Saaaaaaaame

just want to remind everyone again that zohran is the one cis candidate i am aware of that had his platform on trans rights written by trans people. i think that matters

"And we will build a city hall that stands steadfast alongside Jewish New Yorkers and does not waver in the fight against the scourge of antisemitism... Where the more than one million Muslims know that they belong." This is the kind of solidarity we need.

[Exit Clown.]

exercising the right to get gigavaxxed

Don't forget that Zohran Mamdani spent his entire campaign standing proudly beside the trans community. He went to trans rights rallies just to show support. He proudly waved trans rights flags without hesitation. He refused to back down in support of trans rights. That makes me happy.

and that’s why you get yourself an aloof wife

Relatedly: Next year is the 10th anniversary of the Kindness is Everything sign. If we were to make an updated sign, what should it say?

As the originator of this sign, I approve.

Democrats need to run on "clean energy reduces your electric bill, as does stopping AI bullshit"

It happened because every American knows that "Nazis were the bad guys" but very, very few Americans can actually recognise what Nazism is when the swastika is filed off.

It happened because the United States Supreme Court decided Brandenburg v Ohio wrongly, failing to recognise that White Identity Extremism (KKK, neoNazism, etc) is inseparable from terroristic violence and other violations of other people's rights, dignities, autonomy, safety, health and lives

This kind of black listing, to be clear, is actually bad for American Jews. And rich from the industry that continued to employ Mel Gibson.

I don't know what will happen in NYC tonight, but I do know that regardless of outcome, any number of public figures, celebrities, politicians and institutions that oppose Mamdani have done so with a level of rhetorical ugliness, racism, and dishonesty that should neither be forgotten nor forgiven.

I don’t know which is more unfathomable: that a single human has accumulated $30 billion, or that a single human has accumulated $30 billion and is totally cool with laying off 30,000 employees in the early days of a recession.

Virginia has elected Ghazala Hashmi as the state’s next lieutenant governor, making her the first Muslim woman ever elected to statewide office in the United States. 19thnews.org/2025/11/virg...
