Screenshot of a text soliciting political donations, headlined by a photo of Bill Clinton era political strategist James Carville, looking rather like a Star Trek TNG alien. 
“Folks, it’s James Carville. Believe me when I tell you: This ain’t good
“John Sununu just jumped into the US Senate race in New Hampshire. And..”

And so on and so forth.

Day after what felt like a sea change, certainly in the region as to what the Democratic Party could be if they could only dare to try.
Followed by a jump scare of a “send more money” text and a reminder that you have to take a zombie’s head off or it’ll just keep coming.

Clearly trying to reawaken those great feelings long associated with New York City of the early 80s.

I flipped on the Cuomo watch party livestream and I am not joking the music was the Simple Minds classic "Don't You (Forget About Me)".

MSNBC calls NJ for Sherrill, who somehow did not use my slogan "Vote Jack Ciat, get Jack Ciat".

Also tried to discourage Dad from finding the CNN expanded coverage by doing my best to explain Ben Shapiro and Charlamagne tha God.
Well, *you* try explaining those two to a 79 year old white guy who is the opposite of extremely online.

Dad had CNN on in the home today and every story could have concluded with, "Of course, you'd know that already if you'd paid attention in tenth grade civics".

A digital poster in the style of a World War II propaganda piece. Isolaed on a yellow background, a normal, squarish, 20-something guy with glasses is sitting working on a laptop. A ghostly figure of Hitler has his arm around the guy and is grinning and shaking a fist triumphantly looking at the laptop screen. On the lid of the laptop where an apple might otherwise be is an openAI logo, bright green, and dripping green ooze down the lid. Text on the poster, in combinations of sans-serif type and brush script reads: 
Using Generative AI?
You’re prompting with Hitler!
GenAI is a Fascist Project!
Try using your brain instead
Don’t surrender your creativity to the tech billionaire’s control

I love the idea of a UPN exec frowning at the pilot and comparing it unfavorably to "Shasta McNasty".

I believe baseball at any given moment has more types of guys (e.g. “Wet guys”) than some sports have guys.

I forgot the leather coasters! That explains the rings my many whiskey tumblers are leaving on my coffee table (made of reclaimed cigar boxes).

Here's where to get help with food in southwestern Pennsylvania When SNAP benefits expire because of the federal government shutdown, hundreds of thousands of Western Pennsylvanians will struggle to afford food.

When SNAP runs out on Nov. 1st, hundreds of thousands of people in Pittsburgh and across SWPA will struggle to afford food. I compiled (with the help of community members) a non-exhaustive list of where people can find help, including sites in Pittsburgh & outer counties.

Please spread this.

Our friend became a history teacher, I assume that moment awoke something deep in him. “I can’t let this happen to anyone else”.

Reminds me of an old boss I had, a textbook failson, who asked our mutual friend during the movie, “So if he plants the flag at the top of the hill, do they win?”

Infographic altered by me from the New York Times showing four different groups of federal troops dressed in their little tough guy cosplay gear.

Text reads:
Making Sense of the Federal Forces on the Streets

With President Trump sending ICE, Border Patrol, the National Guard and other forces to U.S. cities, here's how to tell them apart- and what their powers are.
