this is the greatest thing i have ever seen

SoftBank’s investor presentation is one of the greatest things ever made. I’ve been thinking about it all day. These are the real slides shown in a speech where Masayoshi Son said he wouldn’t retire for at least another decade. The goose stuff is truly demented. Bravo group.softbank/media/Projec...

Personally, if I were one of the Third Way ghouls who helped to hollow out labor, vilify the poor (especially when they’re black), and lay the ground work for furthering private profit over public good, I would shut the fuck up when a new era of young politicians attempted to revive my party.

seemingly underrated aspect of DSA's electoral successes against incumbent moderate and centrist democrats is simply that the latter got lazy

genuinely crazy to watch these people freak out over what is essentially 21st century new dealism

In retrospect we should have known she would win the second her opponents sent these out

I am baffled that my campaign slogan for New York's 12th district, "Let's Close Our Eyes and Do Everything the Same Forever and Maybe Somehow Things Will Improve?" failed to rally Democratic voters. Some said "maybe lose the question mark" but I wasn't sure I could stand behind a flat statement.

We got a movement going, baby.

I've been watching Babylon 5 (along with @merrittk.com) and it's striking how almost every episode is criticizing a) fascism, b) xenophobia/racism, c) homophobia, d) theocratic conservatism. @straczynski.bsky.social wrote that shit woker than The Pitt S2. No way an exec would greenlight it today.

Very happy to see this point get attention but this image makes it look like my ghost whispered it to the poster in a vision from beyond the grave

I picked a good week to travel to New York.

It’s great that since anyone who has ever been to New York at all counts as a New Yorker, we can all share in this victory ❤️

it must be fundamentally absurd and on some level unreconcilable to be both, 1. A devout Catholic 2. The brother of the current Pope

Nithya Raman took 40% of the votes in today's drop & has overtaken Spencer Pratt for the second spot. She's now up close to half a point. Bass: +15,691 (32.81%) Raman: +19,096 (39.93%) Pratt: +8,489 (17.75%) Pretty safe to say Raman has unlocked a spot in the runoff.

Dashboard updated again. Today's drop: Raman 40.2%, Bass 33%, Pratt 17.7%. Well above the needed threshold, projection now says Raman will beat Pratt by 2.5 points and be 6.4 points behind Bass in the end.

Apropos of nothing I do think Sarah Schulman was correct when she was like "hey you should probably talk to this person in person or at least on the phone if you're mad at them"

Los Angeles mayoral hopeful Nithya Raman took the stage around 9:20 p.m. amid chants of “Nithya!” “Nithya!” at her election party. She outlined a vision of L.A. as a joyful city "where government actually functions."

I’ve worked in TV animation for the past 16 years and “stunt casting” voiceover work has the worst ROI across the board and executives never get tired of doing it.

I can think of clearer terms for "anti-diversity stance." They starts with "r" and "s" and end with "ism."

As I've said time and again (and @adamconover.net reiterates as only he can do): no one is coming to save us; we're going to have to work together to build community capacity to save ourselves!

I can't believe the media is falling for this playbook again. It's been 10 years since 2016, and they've literally learned nothing.

How do we build political pressure and resist the siren's call of the algorithms competing for our attention? The AO Podcast is back (now in partnership with @piqueaction.bsky.social). I spoke with comedian and organizer @adamconover.net and the conversation is 🔥 🔥 youtu.be/4zuuNdojn3A?...
