PSA: The Great Muppet Caper is available on Disney Plus. You're welcome.

The state party is terrible, but I will say here in NYC, lots of neighborhoods have local Dem clubs that do have regular meetings. This is my local club: www.fourfreedomsnyc.org

In case you forgot, Jay Jacobs is the worst and Hochul needs to dump him like yesterday!

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.

Still true! Hopefully after today we'll never have to think about him again.

1. No ID required in New York unless it's your first time voting.
2. New York has fusion voting which allows candidates to be nominated by multiple parties
3. Adams dropped out after the deadline to remove your name passed
4. Cuomo lost the Democratic primary, so he's running on a third party line

We gathered at the steps of New York City Hall to demand that Gov. Hochul fund SNAP benefits for the 3 million New Yorkers who rely on them.

“We urge her to use State funds to pay for all or some of November SNAP benefits, just as multiple other states have already done.”

My new favorite thing is online crypto bros trying to lecture poor people on how to best spend their money.

Just saw a guy on the subway wearing a straightjacket and I'm like 90% sure it's a costume.

Same!

I want to read an entire dissertation on the societal impact of the "I Voted" sticker. I'm serious.

Great question, Rand Paul! For starters:

1. Wages that have not kept up with inflation
2. Lack of affordable child care for working parents
3. Exploding healthcare & housing costs
4. 30% increase in grocery prices in the past 5 years
5. A global pandemic that people are still recovering from

One app, 60 men, 26 dates: my adventures in alt-right dating There’s no question that we’re living — and looking for love — in contentious times, where extreme political ideologies have all but divided parts of the dating pool. Or have they?

I actually read this thinking that maybe some of these guys were just a little confused or misunderstood, but nah, they're all psychos. www.cosmopolitan.com/uk/love-sex/...

First animated crush without saying you age.

Oh man, season 3 episode 1 of the Diplomat did not disappoint!

Marc Lobliner post on X: "Why the hell are we giving food stamps to 40 million people? Does anyone work anymore?"

SNAP isn't about "people who don't work." It's about people who don't get paid enough to live.

Of the 40 or so million people who rely on food stamps:

* Two-thirds are children, seniors, or disabled

* Most working-age adults who receive SNAP are employed—but in jobs that pay poverty wages

There is a whole contingent of Twitter that has convinced itself that high turnout is bad for Mamdani and good for Cuomo. If they actually believe that, the breakdowns on election night are going to be epic.

'Uncharted territory': Ongoing shutdown threatens food aid for 42 million people SNAP, the country's largest anti-hunger program, dates back to the Great Depression and has never been disrupted this way. Most recipients are seniors, families with kids, and those with disabilities.

On November 1st, 42 million Americans will lose their food assistance, unless Republicans in Congress re-open the government.

Hey folks, maybe we could take a break from talking about a Maine Senate primary happening in 8 months to talk about a very important Maine ballot measure that folks are voting on in less than 2 weeks!

Mom-donnie. It's really not that hard to say.

They are truly the dumbest fucking people.

And now I need to rewatch The Great Muppet Caper!

the amount of time conservatives spend thinking about childrens genitals is legit crazy

A Ballot Measure Targets Mail Voting in Maine - Bolts Question 1, on the November ballot, would set up a barrage of new restrictions on absentee ballots that would considerably affect older voters and people with disabilities.

There’s 1,000 times more chatter about the Maine senate race in a year than about Maine’s ballot measure in 3 weeks that’d bring voter ID and crack down on mail voting… maybe let’s start there??? boltsmag.org/maine-questi...

Rep. Seth Moulton invokes age in launching Democratic primary challenge against Sen. Ed Markey of Massachusetts | CNN Politics Invoking the specter of Joe Biden and decrying Democrats whom he says have “clung to the status quo, insisted on using the same old playbook – and isn’t fighting hard enough,” Rep. Seth Moulton launch...

I like Ed Markey, and I haven't been a big fan of Moulton's, but no one who is about to turn 80 should be running for a 6 year Senate term.

Wait, When Did the Upper East Side Get Cool? Buzzy restaurants are moving in, and young people are moving up. The neighborhood has never been hotter. ‘Preppy dressing is back. The old money vibe is back.’

Glad people are finally catching on! 😂

there are a couple of ways to think about this, one is that no one should be running for their first senate race at this age, and the other is that if platner can’t beat her, he definitely can’t beat collins. i think he can. everybody needs to stop crying and start fighting.

oh good I was worried the utterly unearned Vanity Fair editor job was all she got for violating the most basic rules of journalism
