Ram Emanuel wanted to listen to girls take shits in middle school

Highlighted text from Rahm Emanuel interview with Bill Maher: In 7th grade if I had known I could have said 'they' and got in the girls bathroom, I would have done it." Complete text: Bill Maher asks Rahm Emanuel why Chicago's mayor has such a low approval rating, and the panel agrees that Democrat policies have ruined large American cities: Bill Maher: "I read that the current mayor of Chicago has an approval rating of 6.6%. What's going on in Chicago?" Rahm Emanuel: "We've gone through 5 years where people became way too permissive as a culture. Which is why everything is locked up at CVS and Walgreens, that's a disaster. I don't want to hear another word about the locker room, I don't want to hear another word about the bathroom. You better start feeüsing on the classroom. In 7th grade if I had known I could have said 'they' and got in the girls bathroom, I would have done it." Fareed Zakaria: "This is a huge Democrat party problem. Democrat cities are terribly run. Cost of housing is crazy. The budget of New York state is twice that of Florida. Lots of taxes, lots of regulation, but nothing gets done. Democrats have to own this: The answer to everything is not more taxes. more regulations. People are fed up (end screen cap)

Rahm Emanuel repeating anti trans talking points.

NYPD have obtained footage of the CEO Shooter going behind a sofa and descending stairs. "He is gone" said a spokesman. "so are the stairs"

Where is Alex Pareene? I miss his stuff.

also, i am fascinated by how conservatives across the board have simply given up on the idea that people can be persuaded. seems commensurate with the return of scientific racism to mainstream circles. people are simply inherently one thing or another according to whatever group they were born into

Trump on union workers: “They get their little 5 percent, they get another 2 percent... All of a sudden they’re making more money than the people that own the company”

The origin John Higgins colours for the same page. A nightmare kaleidoscope of neon.

Reject modernity Embrace tradition

Twisters, fantastic summer movie, check it out. This has been your Bluesky Movie Corner.

I ain’t seen that look in Steph’s eyes since somebody threatened to build affordable housing in his neighborhood

Some of the Walz analysis you’re seeing has nothing to do with his record as a centrist congressman and then liberal governor but is just pundits being unhappy people they don’t like on the internet are happy with the pick.

I support Walz for VP because I support public school teachers winning high office. They are the backbone of democracy, no joke.

a lot of the jamelle bouie discourse has become a fairly blatant worldview of "the only moral way to exist is to disengage from society entirely" and I think it's rather fascinating that people seem to not get that mooting this rather than the alternative is profoundly strange and antisocial

Boys it’s time to bring back cussing like Joe Pesci in Home Alone

This is actually a decent analogy because the drivers have all the power and the numbers and sometimes just straight up murder them but still whine about how they’re the victims

My sources tell me that Yaccarino replied "whether it's soup or ice cream, #spoons are an absolute must!"

Things fall apart
The center can't (HOLD)
Mere anarchy

Up to my eyeballs

So make some (NOISE)
For the Bethlehem birth
Of the BEA! STIE! BOYS!

My favorite horror movie is the dang news!

In the last four weeks no one has made me (an American Jew) feel unsafe, no one has talked about wanting me dead, no one has tried to dehumanize me, no one has sent me violent messages, no one has tried to threaten my livelihood and my family — except for American pro-Israel Jews

The Extreme Ambitions of West Bank Settlers A leader of the settlement movement on expanding into Gaza, and her vision for the Jewish state.

the real reason Israel has lost control of the narrative is that the conflict has revealed to the world just how extreme the Israeli far-right actually is
