Good things are possible and we don’t have to settle.

Dick Cheney dies, Zohran Mamdani wins, a beaver moon shines in the sky… I just know the Etsy witches have been busy.

One of our country's greatest war criminals just died, the president is arguing with himself about whether or not to let 40 million people starve, and there is an actual courtroom drama about a five dollar footlong.

How are any of us supposed to maintain emotional regulation.

I gotta give it up to the writers tho. If NYC elects a Muslim mayor on the day Dick Cheney died, that is one hell of a slow played story arc. Every time you want to fire 2025's writers room they give you a little narrative resolution as a treat.

Do they break us, bsky?

From PA to Georgia, I look at these results and I am so goddamn *proud* of everyone who voted, who volunteered, who worked, who pursued this most fundamental civic duty far and wide.

AND DID THEY FUCKING BREAK US? WITH THEIR VILE-ASS SHIT THEY WERE SLINGING?

I. THINK. NOT.

Decision Desk HQ ' @DecisionDeskHQ •3m ... Decision Desk HQ projects Zohran Mamdani to win the New York City Mayor election. #DecisionMade: 9:03 pm ET

Let's fucking go

Alt text: “New York City Mayor General Election results showing 0% of precincts reporting as of November 4, 2025, 9:05 PM. Zohran Mamdani (Democrat) leads with 422,116 votes, 51.7%. Andrew Cuomo (FaD) has 324,914 votes, 39.8%. Curtis Sliwa (Republican) has 65,684 votes, 8%. Eric Adams (Independent, incumbent) has 1,919 votes, 0.2%, and James Walden (Independent) has 894 votes, 0.1%. Total votes: 816,731.”

Decision Desk has called the NYC mayors race for Zohran Mamdani.

Why must our bodies betray us so!?

Someone asked me if Mamdani winning will actually change anything.

I think it would.

It will give people hope which is desperately needed right now.

It'll make Schumer & other establishment Dems look bad for not endorsing him.

It'll inspire people to get new blood into the House & Senate.

Omg my chocolate craving lately has been intense -- then shark week started. 🫠

I don't know what will happen in NYC tonight, but I do know that regardless of outcome, any number of public figures, celebrities, politicians and institutions that oppose Mamdani have done so with a level of rhetorical ugliness, racism, and dishonesty that should neither be forgotten nor forgiven.

CONGRATS, GEORGIA! ❤️🌈

I bet that you did not know that President Lee just played the Orange Guy. I am sharing this so that you are clued in on the joke.

LLMs are racist snd sexist because the material they’re trained on is racist snd sexist and they’re owned and operated by racist, sexist billionaires.

Stop using this shit. It’s fucking up your brain.

America… where they will force you to give birth and then blame you if you struggle financially.

Where they will ban abortions but also cut funding for infant formula and SNAP funds that feed kids.

You ever notice when Tech CEOs talk about AI they talk about how it'll make your life better, easier, and do amazing things for all of us, but then when you see it in action it's just doing crimes against humanity?

Racist Influencers Using OpenAI's Sora to Make it Look Like Poor People Are Selling Food Stamps for Cash Folks looking for evidence of SNAP recipients as welfare queens have no shortage of AI generated schlock to use as justification.

Blackface that exists without any actual human behind the makeup is a special kind of dystopian phenomenon

Since getting sick again a month ago my brain fog & fatigue/PEM has definitely gotten worse again too. It's so difficult to get up & do anything and heaven forbid I have to make a decision. I hate feeling like I'm back at square one again. I'm so damn miserable.

I haven't had the capacity to keep up with moderation lists for a bit, but this one is really obvious, so I'm stealing some energy from Future Me: a list for the extremely obvious wave of inauthentic accounts following today's newly-created US gov accounts

Free the World @PatriotVerity x.com I joined Bluesky 6 hours ago, have not said anything rude or abrasive, and I'm already blocked by over 58,000 people.

it is my pleasure to report they are indeed mad as fuck on the other site over being blocked and ignored. keep up the excellent work everyone

The No Kings March in Chicago is one of the largest gatherings I’ve seen here. Looking down from by the river, the crowd stretches for blocks down Michigan Ave and wraps around Wacker Dr. This video is from a few minutes ago and the end of the protest is nowhere in sight.
@blockclubchi.bsky.social

Take note of all these people turning out for protests in small towns in red states.

Remember them the next time you’re inclined to write an area off because “they voted for this.”

You gotta just block these accounts without interacting. They're doing this the night before No Kings so they can selectively grab quote posts and replies about how nasty people are being. It's extremely transparent. Just block and move on.

Hey, as a heads up for NSFW peeps in the US, US President administration just made a shitton of BlueSky accounts. I would highhhhly recommend subbing to this blocklist so they don't show up on any algorithm feeds (and so they can't see your shit)

My heart breaks for all of us living this nightmare... and for the many others that will inevitably join us. 😔💔

A journalist should ask why he seems so uninformed about what's going on in the country as he is supposed to be the leader of the House.
