had nightmares about planes falling out of the sky, and consequently slept like shit. i think my anxiety is definitely high 😭

Photo of NBC’s exit poll data (from my work laptop, lol) showing Mamdani splitting the straight vote equally with Cuomo, but taking the LGBTQ+ vote by more than 5:1. Even though the LGBTQ+ slice is only 14% of the population, they were a LANDSLIDE in his favor.

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.

just wanted to re-post this messaging that helped win an election

Another world is possible, if we fight for it

Can’t stop thinking about all the robber baron fucks that held secret meetings and spent MILLIONS AND MILLIONS in bribes and campaign investments and attack ads and media manipulation trying to tank Mamdani currently having the dawning realization that their money is completely and utterly useless.

and this has always been true, btw. even in 2016, but anyway

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

WOULD JAMES CARVILLE AND GAVIN NEWSOM LIKE TO COME FORWARD AND EAT SHIT

THIS IS WHAT WE NEED

I'm so cynical that i won't fully believe results until more votes are counted aaahh

AT SEVEN MINUTES AFTER CLOSING?????????????? holy fuck holy fuck holy fuck

Dersh fantasizing about the Budd Dwyer special

If you’re still in line, STAY IN LINE

she's an enormous bigot, it feels so random

i know it's not, but like, damn really??

can't find it, but someone said 'so much of my mental well being rides on mamdani winning a mayoral election in a city i dont even live in', and yeah, soooo tru

also, describing laughs or voices as thunder, coffee, growling... shut up! it reads like a high schooler who just learned what a simile is wrote this shit 😒

i get that it's an attempt to build romantic tension, but it's so bad. it's especially bad when it keeps being brought up. tell me once, maaayyyybbee twice what they smell like with specifics and then thereafter only reference it as their scent idk, I have to read about pine every time?? kill me!

this is so niche and specific, but every. single. romance writer does this shit. it's bad writing, it takes me out of the story, it's corny af, it's unrealistic! esp in action scenes. girl, your life is on the line, adrenaline high, and you notice how he smells? BULLSHIT lmao

i HATE that thing romance writers do where they describe someone's voice as a rumble like "thunder" or "coffee and cream". or when there's a fight scene in a romantasy and mid-action the protagonist notices the way the love interest smells "like pine and burnt wood and salt." wtf are we doing?

Melissa strengthened into a cat 5 hurricane overnight, w/ winds of ~160 mph & central pressure of 913mb.

Even more strengthening is likely later today, which may put this storm in pretty rarified air historically for Atlantic hurricanes.

Awful situation unfolding for much of Jamaica

some things are murky and complex. some of the antisemitism baked into our society is rooted so deep you don't see it until someone says "hey so here's the Grimm Brothers' whole deal" or "that goes back to medieval Catholicism" and you're like "oh shit!"

A NAZI TATTOO IS NOT IN THAT CATEGORY

we all just lived through fetterman and some of yall are really out here like, "i can excuse a nazi tattoo" like it's some boyish whim. i hate yall, i truly do!

"hey man, why didn't you lazer this off and hide the fact that you're a nazi?" this is what some of you freaks sound like rn... if you dont believe a white man WITH A NAZI TATTOO is a nazi, then maybe you're also a nazi because what the actual fuck

they didnt and now i feel like a dummy! with the other checks they said two weeks and it took them four! im gonna have to send an awkward email that im actually not available for work next week after all

girl you and me both!!! they owe me 7 days wages and now im worried i'll need to be after them for my freelancing pay 😫 makes me not want to work with them anymore

watching the debate comments between mamdani and cuomo about support for muslim new yorkers and it’s pretty clear cuomo is terrified of mamdani coming armed with ready-made, built-in demographic support without acknowledging that’s how white people have been dominating politics since day 1

uhhh my former employer didnt send me my last check but they're still expecting me to freelance for them lmao wtf is going on? why do i have to chase these people for my money?!

another night of terrible nightmares 😔
