To be fair he had literal centuries to campaign

Never really got Yo La Tengo till I had a baby and needed to be up with her at 7:00 every day. I mean I went to see them a couple times and everything but it only just clicked now. It’s music to keep you from crying I think?

Casey Kasem no joke one of the greatest, lifelong fighter for justice for Palestine etc

It is very funny to have logged in here for the first time in several days at this exact moment. I truly had no idea people thought he was dead so the first thing I see being disappointment posts was very confusing

I don’t understand Taylor swift and I don’t like feeling that way. She seems so boring in every possible way it makes me feel like an alien like I’m missing something huge about the world

Liberals think of the word “socialist” in the same way there’s that 30 Rock joke about someone being Puerto Rican and Jack saying “I don’t think you’re allowed to call someone that.”

You don’t have to use quotation marks. Zohran Mandani is a socialist because he organizes to build working class power in opposition to the capitalist class, in order to remake the world into one where the people who make the world go round get to decide how it’s run.

“What does support mean beyond posting?” Is something we need be asking people all the time

Not a scratch on either of us either!!!

Just put my baby in her carrier and we went into the brambles to pick blackberries and then I mashed them and fed them to her, real hunter gatherer hours around here

This is nauseating

Why I Joined the DSA From Albany insider to card-carrying socialist, former Cuomo aide, whistleblower reflects on her political journey

"Not only is everything about DSA so unlike my experience working for Cuomo, it is so disparate from my experience of being abandoned by my own party, the Democratic Party of New York."

It’s plain old class politics, and as always, the racism is a tool to enforce it

I am all for calling out racism and absolutely it’s there but the main thing is he didn’t spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on consultants and he won handily. The Democrat model right now is begging for money to pay consultants who get rich while losing nearly every race they run.

Actually… the Dems are just counting on Islamophobia and anti Arab sentiment to align people with their campaign to undermine Mamdani but they’re actually going after him because his success threatens their entire consultancy scam

I did not get Covid

Got exposed to Covid tested negative but my baby is like very unhappy with mom in a mask and I can’t do it I haven’t seen her in 7 entire days like she needs meeeeeee she needs my face

There are 22 staffers. For something to be plural there should be more than one. There are not two dozen staffers. It’s silly maybe but it’s totally true!

Yesterday at DSA convention the membership passed this resolution about staff that changes nothing about our current relationship to the org but it’s funny because it claims we have “dozens” of staff but actually we do not have over 24 staffers, the definition of “dozens”

Nothing bad could happen from consuming this much heavy cream and caffeine before 8 am

Eating an absolutely massive serving of matcha tiramisu before driving 6 hours to Chicago

When you said you were going somewhere known for their pastrami this is not what I pictured!!!!

Anyway I promise you if you want to win the fucking presidency and you see that what’s going to need to happen is people are going to have to actually try to get other people they know to vote for you you should be courting the parents of trans kids bc they are willing to fight

Actually that’s not the only thing it does. It also makes space for fascism to grow and gives permission to crack down on the public lives of marginalized people

There is no one in this country who is going to start voting for democrats if they perceive them to be anti trans.It isn’t savvy to give ground on that issue, it literally does nothing but alienate trans people and one of the most rapidly radicalizing groups in the country: parents of trans kids

Someday it’s going to be so funny to think about RFK senior and RFK junior and that whole history and just everything about it. I occasionally find myself thinking it’s funny now but then I get sad. But it will just be funny someday I think

Engaging in the incredibly healing activity of having a real vacation at my house with my best friends and their toddler where we’re doing things like “going to the lake” and “eating spaghetti” and “smoking weed after the babies go to bed” and it’s just perfect

I mean this with my whole heart: fuck Hillary Clinton

Israelis who are now starving little girls just like her, whose great grandmothers maybe liked their hummus just so, keeping their own food from them in order to kill them so that they can take everything else from them

Gave my daughter hummus for the first time tonight. Made it like my grandma used to: very lemony. Hard to know that this food has been claimed and profited from by Israelis
