Insightful thoughts here on why capital owners may oppose decarbonization. It's like opposition to unions: it's not about wages necessarily but about who has the power in the workplace

Joker: “what is this? The good cop bad cop routine?” Jim gordon: “not exactly” Chuck Schumer: *appears behind joker giving him a massage* “mr joker sir, what if I gave you everything you want and I get nothing in return? Well regardless of whether you like it or not that’s exactly what I’ll do!!!”

It’s like getting mad at a bear for knocking over your trash and scattering it around the yard. I expect the bear to do it but I am disappointed if my neighbor does the same thing

Every few weeks we gotta make posts like this”call your dem reps to tell them to not vote to allow Lord Killdude to shove people into a volcano” and then the dem reps go “we’ve made an amazing deal where Lord Killdude can have his volcano so long as he promises not to shove people into it”

ANDREWS But now with wokeness, what’s happening is, they’re saying girls get to go to college, okay, fine, we can all support that. But they still want to get more stupider. DOUTHAT Interesting. ANDREWS And so now you’ve got to make colleges have less knowledge due to the Civil Rights Act.

HELEN ANDREWS And so what the statistics show, Ross, when you look at it ROSS DOUTHAT Yeah, let’s dig in ANDREWS What they show is that, okay, 98% of boys go to college to get more knowledge DOUTHAT Wow. ANDREWS And almost 97% of girls, in contrast, they go to Jupiter to get more stupider

I helped make a film, out this week, called “Rovina’s Choice,” about the deaths this man without conscience or accountability has caused — already 600,000, ⅔ of them children.

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

Perhaps a third good thing could happen 💫

i can’t believe a good thing happened we should do this more often

this is a reminder that we dont have to settle for newsom in 2028

reminder to all my trans friends that a man who campaigned with this much support and love for us just destroyed the most machine politician to ever exist in spite of all odds. turns out vocally caring about us is a winning strategy!!

As many have pointed out, Mamdani didn't stand apart from our trans brothers and sisters. He didn't play the "Gee, gosh, it sure is complicated," milquetoast moderate card. And he crushed. The way forward is together, not over the bodies of our own.

my happiness would kill them so I shove joy like a knife into my own heart over and over #SaturdayPoem

it's me, unnamed critter from bosch's triptych of the temptation of anthony!

Happy Halloween we let the kindergartner draw the faces for the pumpkins

real jobs don't exist so i make a living borrowing against my tranche of data center lease backed bonds to purchase nvidia stock then borrowing against the nvidia stock to buy more data center lease backed bonds

I found this piece sad too, but mostly because it is part of a years-long effort by progressives to understand what "really" animates Trump voters. We already know! It is racism, misogyny and misinformation. I know that sounds condescending or whatever but it's simply what all evidence suggests.

🎶🎶 In our heads is placed a candle brighter than their hoarded gold; Greater than the might of armies, magnified a thousand-fold. We can seed to birth a new world from the carvings of the old. Pumpkin Union makes us strong. 🎶🎶

The baby has decided that the word for jack o lantern is “pumpkin boss” so that’s what they are now. That’s a pumpkin boss. No word on whether pumpkin labor is organizing

It’s literally illegal to not say go bills to Pickle

Of course I didn’t want that call reversed but I welcome any on-camera appearance of the panthers coach

a key reason why Signal and Bluesky have done pretty well is because they're actually really easy to use: I desperately wish more people in the open source and responsible technology world would look at those examples and go "huh, maybe we should do that too"

I'm so sick of discourse from supposed allies about where trans people went wrong. Where we "went wrong" is that billionaires spent unimaginably large sums to attack us repeatedly and major media outlets have spent a decade piling on.

"the speaker of the House is refusing to seat a duly elected member of Congress to protect the president from a vote to investigate his extensive connections the world's most notorious human trafficking pedophile" is one of those things you simply cannot put into New York Timesese

Part of why Trump is portrayed as more popular than his numbers show is that it gives the leadership in these institutions the license to make their preferred changes in trying to shape public life.

you don't understand. as someone who isn't inherently good at art, stealing paintings from the museum is the *only* way i'm able to express myself creatively. i wouldn't be able to paint beautiful portraits. but by breaking into a museum and stealing the paintings, now i am

Every time someone trips over a cord in Virginia and takes down half the internet, I’m reminded how powerful a unionized tech industry could be

the resistance encompasses BOTH carrie underwood and that girl who can’t shoot whiskey and their shared enemy is the cheater

If you're looking for an action to take tomorrow that can help protect millions of people regardless of their immigration status, call your governor to demand a ban on utility shutoffs this winter. Every state has slightly different policy– we got you covered.

I think it is more surely true of JD Vance than of any other man in America that he knows exactly what kind of porn AI is helping us come up with

it's something that the Roman Catholic Church is taking bigger and faster swings at internal reform than the Democratic Party

What if we kissed in front of the unnecessarily horny T. Rex display

Because when you burn down a house and nobody ever rebuilds it, someone is still forced to live in the ashes

People really do look at their phones a lot less in a place where news happens at a “local morning paper” pace

"Make cities safe and fun for kids to run around and play in" is a pretty good guiding light for urban planning
