From here I suspect most of the people who wouldn't vote for Dems because of Mamdani wouldn't actually do it anyway. But most who wouldn't vote for Dems because of Schumer most likely might if he wasn't the face of the party.

Yes!
I stopped drinking alcohol in most social settings. And try to be first to ask for a non-alcoholic drink, esp at business social events. Just in case. It's my personal choice. I'm socially awkward anyway so I seldom get those follow-up questions. Can also take the pressure of every one else.

the bricks are alive at this day to testify it;
therefore deny it not.

I'm very glad for Jereko. Got to see her goal in KC, from an improbable angle and with so much force it blew right through their goalkeeper.

Very chilling sign of the times for @sarahkendzior.bsky.social
to get shut down on here.

The question isn’t "why does Signal use AWS?" It’s to look at the infrastructural requirements of any global, real-time, mass comms platform and ask how it is that we got to a place where there’s no realistic alternative to AWS and the other hyperscalers. 3/

I was working at a NYC photo shop/lab in the 1970s. A customer wanted to pay with a check for some prints of her family. Gwen Verdon appeared graciously surprised when I mentioned that she wouldn't need her ID. (This was when the events depicted in "All That Jazz" were occurring.)

(4/X) The president of the United States calls Jews "shylocks" and had a close advisor gives Hitler salutes, but the real antisemitism problem is a mayoral candidate who has worked on campaigns for Jewish candidates, and has been endorsed by many high-ranking Jewish elected officials.

Didn't Bellingcat report on this, oh maybe, years ago? The NY Times is just such a pathetic embarrassment these days. Given the total lack of integrity to their current reporting, not surprising they're recycling others'work.
