If the data was good, it would be flashing on the screens behind her.

@fetterman.senate.gov campaigned on being the 51st vote. Turns out he’s the 60th.

When useful idiots like @fetterman.senate.gov pretend that his buddy Dave and pals are willing to negotiate on ACA subsidies if only the Dems vote to end the shutdown, remind him that the GOP are bullshit artists and don’t care about his constituents

This needs more attention: Zohran SPLIT the straights with Cuomo. ALL of his margin was from LGBTQ+ voters. Every Dem who ever said “we should abandon the transes” needs this shoved down their fucking throat with a ramrod.

It’s touching that in honor of Dick Cheney, Trump shot his friends in the face.

I think Bryan Weismantle won 9 votes per sign.

Bluesky feels like Election Night (pre-Elon) Twitter tonight.

We win because our organizing is tied to our neighbors and not dependent on one candidate.

Who would have thought making people go hungry, kicking people off insurance, and masked fake police kidnapping people off the street wouldn't be more popular? Oh, and everything costs a lot more because of tarriffs. Can't believe people don't like paying more for stuff!

Looks like a No, @wesa.fm

Zohran Mamdani wins! He ran on an unabashedly pro-transgender platform, stood up for the most vulnerable, as so many have pushed for the Democratic Party to abandon trans people in order to win. Major win for trans New Yorkers - he has vowed for intense resistance to anti-trans Trump policies.

At this point, anyone—a university, a law firm, a corporation, a Democrat—bending the knee to Trump is doing it because they want to, not because of any political reality.

I’ve seen enough.

I’ve been told that consultants have determined that this messaging is effective, but maybe after 2024 we can admit that consultants often shit the bed and that this messaging is creepy and off-putting.

@roseforacc.bsky.social @bethanyhallam.bsky.social @innamo.bsky.social One of these provides voters with the confidence that they’re talking to a real public official. One of these does not.

My favorite part of Pet Sematary is when the daughter tells the dad that she dreamer of his actions of the previous night, but he just resurrected a cat and is just rolling with it.

When you said you’d be the 51st vote, but you’re actually the 54th.

This is the time of year when people will share posts saying that if you’re turned away at the polls, you should state, verbatim, "Give me a provisional ballot with a receipt as required by law." like it’s a magic declaration that opens up secret democracy access for you.

Sure, let’s try to appeal to the Republicans who aren’t going to vote for you anyway. It sure worked well when you trotted out Liz Cheney in 2024.

Two unrealistic things about The Pitt: 1) The number of college students going to a hospital not in Oakland. 2) The Pirates being ahead by two at any given point in time.

Finally getting around to watching The Pitt, and Katherine LaNasa’s accent needs to be on the Pittsburgh walk of fame.

The fact that this guy thinks that voting along with Republicans will help Pennsylvanians just cements my will to never vote for him again. No matter who.

I’m a Pirates fan. We’re the standard for this.

Breaking: Republicans canceled votes on the 29th and 30th, delaying the final signature on Rep. Thomas Massie’s and our discharge petition. These political games erode public trust. We need transparency and justice for survivors. Release the full Epstein files.

A bright spot for today is thinking of how furious Russell M Nelson must be every time the news says “Mormon” today.

Craig Heyward is the only member of his family that Pittsburghers aren’t angry at today.

You’ll never guess which Pirates player this is supposed to be.

When it happens, the PA state stores will generate enough revenue to get the budget passed.

Verterans.

The Pittsburgh Pirates after half an inning.

Always Sunny Title Card > Simpsons Chalkboard and Couch

The Pirates couldn’t do a parody of the Coldplay CEO because they’d have to answer questions about when Potato Pete and Pizza Penny eloped to Italy and only Potato Pete came back and and WHERE IS PIZZA PENNY?

This is our World Series now.

Just got a Let’s Go Bucs and saw this on a pole. You’re not so bad, Baltimore.

This is why no incumbent should be safe. No matter who no more.

Our president was voted in by the people who comment on Facebook ads and we got what we deserved.

If someone ever watches Star Wars for the first time in chronological order, they’re going to hate Luke for the being the main character they got rid of Cassian for.

No they didn’t.

The enemy of my enemy is still my enemy but I still like seeing them fight

i'm starting to see some scoldy posts pointing out that we are laughing about a fire on the deck of our sinking ship and i have to be honest once the ship started sinking i decided i would take the laughs where i found them

Elon to Trump

Elon admitting that he spent $300 million to eke out a win for a pedophile to the world's most powerful position should do wonders for his companies

I hope that Elon bullies Trump into taxing billionaires.

Every four years, people like this push candidates to the center to try to appeal to Republicans. And those Republicans then vote… for Republicans.

The reason I don’t feel that I owe any Democrat a vote is that it’s DEMOCRATS who try to take down principled and strong representatives like Summer Lee. If she was my representative, she would have earned my vote. That’s not guaranteed with many others.

It's not an attack on young men to point out that idolizing rapists and sexual abusers is turning them into unfuckable losers.

Later on plantation lovers will be sad over the "Loss of history" but won't actually mention the history of the plantation
