#ResistanceUnited #ProudBlue #ONEV1 #DV1 TX: I love both current Democratic candidates for the US Senate. Here’s what @jamestalarico.bsky.social is doing right: talk with undecideds. Regardless of the result of the primary, his effort serves Texas well. Thank you.

the hat on shein vs the hat they deliver

Two victims of previous school shootings — Mia Tretta, who was shot in the stomach in 2019 at Saugus High School, and Zoe Weissman, who survived the 2018 shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School — are now at Brown. Gun violence is out of control in this country.

CBS should make me editor-in-chief and it will be 24 hours nonstop coverage about arcane menswear rules no one knows or cares about

🎅My Evil MoPac Merch Holiday Sale has arrived, y'all!🎅 The coolest anthropomorphic highway merchandise line out there, with all kinds of awesome gifts 🎄🕎🎁 Check it out here: evilmopacatx.com

This installation is located at a church in Charlotte.

And then there’s the story about Alex Karp’s not-at-all-weird interview (for lack of a better word) with Oswald Mosley’s grandson for a senior position at Palantir.

Abby, Patrick, and Dan of @unhappinesspod.bsky.social are some of the most intellectually generous people I know—models of public scholarship and community building that I strive to emulate. They’re also just delightful to listen to. Consider subscribing: ordinaryunhappiness.com?utm_campaign...

it is also just hilarious to insist that eight months of rush job “scholarship” outweighs decades of settled history and 140 years of settled law

Listen, all I’m saying is that I’ve seen more pictures of Donald Trump partying with Jeffrey Epstein than I have of Donald Trump playing with his son Barron.

Hard to identify the best part of this 1964 ad--the obvious headline, the misspelling of Reagan's last name, or the shout out to John Stoemer's blockbuster (and howlingly inaccurate) conspiracy-ridden book "None Dare Call it Treason" about the supposedly "treasonous" thread of the US left.

The traditional role for women requires us to pretend to be weak, stupid, and cowardly. #PatriarchyIsAbuse

All social conservatives hate women. #PatriarchyIsAbuse

IT MATTERED BEFORE! Democrats won the house in 2018, and the White House and Senate in 2020! Why is this so hard to remember?

Premiering now! "Standing Room Only" has the latest update on the JD and Usha Vance drama — and why it matters. Excited to have @moiradonegan.bsky.social as the guest to talk about what this tells us about how MAGA views heterosexual marriage. youtu.be/QEfkB7-6B5s?...

Lol at every university trustee and law firm partner who concluded they had no choice but to play ball with this bumbling fool

Some holiday fun as I dive back into the horrifying HEB Clearance Rack open.substack.com/pub/evilmopa...

the thing is there really is a epochal tech revolution happening, it’s called renewables and green industry

This is actually the fourth time Trump has failed to indict Letitia James: 1. Erik Seibert refused to 2. Lindsey Halligan wasn't lawfully appointed 3. DOJ tried again and failed last week 4. DOJ tried again and failed today

Important to always make clear that “misandry” is not real, and that people who claim that it is are misogynists, anti feminists, and also whiny little babies.

I've probably photographed Brad Lander more than any other elected in NYC because the dude shows up. He's everywhere, he's incredibly accessible, and he genuinely loves New Yorkers. You can literally go up and talk to him whenever he shows up. Go ahead, try it! (I have NEVER seen Goldman ANYWHERE.)

@adriandaub.bsky.social I know y’all have a long list of topics to cover next year, so let me add a bale to the load: Scott Yenor. He’s a genuine bastard who is now perched at the Heritage Foundation to advocate for eliminating all women’s rights.

@iwriteok.bsky.social Y’all did a really good episode on Curtis Yarvin. I wish you would do the same on Scott Yenor, the new Heritage Foundation project head who wants to forcibly remove women from public life entirely. He’s every bit as bad and as influential as Yarvin, just cagier.

The thing is... many of us have limits, boundaries, places we won't go, and that allows us to imagine that others have limits, boundaries, places they won't go. But they don't--not this administration. So normalizing *anything* just means having to normalize a bleeding edge farther out at some point

Not unexpected, but still a glimpse of where the Orange stain wants to take America. thehill.com/homenews/hou...

Not surprising but profoundly disgusting. The rapist-in-chief brokering freedom for rapists and women beaters. We have work to do ladies. Time to take out the manosphere once and for all. 🎁 article How a Manosphere Star Accused of Rape and Trafficking Was Freed www.nytimes.com/2025/12/10/u...

Something we can do to make the Schlaflys of the world disappear.

Republicans are a literal plague on society

The 2025 National Security Strategy document makes it official: the Trump administration believes that European liberal democracy is a threat to U.S. national interest.

I would like the phrase and concept of "common decency" to make a comeback

One theory I have is that competence, self-control, responsibility, and expertise have all been feminized, leaving “masculinity” with the realm of impulsivity and petulance. So the divide is not really between “femininity” and “masculinity” so much as between adulthood and childishness.

The right’s preferred gender ideology—one of male supremacy, women’s exclusion from dignity, citizenship, and vast spheres of public life, and an enforced heterosexuality of eroticized domination—is much more prescriptive, aggressive, and ubiquitously pushed than anything coming from trans people.

Eileen Higgins just became the first Democrat elected mayor of Miami in nearly 30 years.

Nothing to see here! It’s all under control!

So sad. My Grandmother an immigrant from Greece was so proud when she got her citizenship. Her boys my uncle's and my father all served in WWII all 5 of them fought the Nazis. Now corruption, greed and lust for power has ruined the country.So sad.Our Dear Leader punishing a nation of immigrants. ☮️

“I went to a place and didn’t find the bizarre caricature our propaganda had painted over the last few years. So perhaps the immense damage and considerable civil rights abuses we did based on our own lies … are finally working their magic?”

Once got commissioned to write an article for a very fancy journal, and when I filed they sent me back edits where the two editors were mocking me in track changes and calling me names. Not standard, rigorous editing; actually contemptuous and really unprofessional. I killed the piece.

This is a cult.

I cannot possibly hope to convey how far from hinged this attempted defense of Nuzzi in Graydon Carter's newsletter is

The Jesus of the gospels is a universalist who despises hierarchy, exalts the lowly and suffering, and rejects ethnic supremacy. He preaches to Gentiles, has his followers dine in the homes of uncircumcized men, and declares, "My father's house is a place of prayer for all nations."

For the first time since the outset of the Israeli genocide in Gaza, a Christmas tree has been lit in Bethlehem, the Palestinian village where Jesus Christ is believed to have been born. www.nbcnews.com/video/shorts...

We know this isn’t true because if the EU was Nazi-like, Musk wouldn’t be fighting it. He’d be saluting it.

Probably currently being sold on the black market.

TIL about a memorial ceremony in Iceland in 2019 to mark the end of a glacier, changing the place name from Okjökull to Ok (jökull = glacier). Uncompromising wording on the bronze plaque: "This is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it".
