Good for them! I hope their transitions went smoothly!

A piece that follows the art style trend I've been using lately, focusing on muted colors, heavy lineart and harsh, black shading with a comic-book aesthetic plastered over it, including noise filters and halftones. Soma Cruz, Juste Belmont, Jimbo and Julius Belmont are posed up taking on a hoard of various night creatures from the Castlevania series, including fleamen, skeletons, bitterflies, frozen shades, werewolves, imps, specters and corpse shrooms. Soma wields an RPG, Juste wields a whip and the Belnades Spellbook, Jimbo wields cards and Julius wields a whip, like Juste.

This game is funny.
Here's a piece with some iconic Castlevania characters! Yep. castlevania characters

If at least 26 billionaires can waste at least $27 million trying to defeat Zohran Mamdani, then those same billionaires can afford to pay an extra 2% on their income over $1 million to make New York a better, thriving city for everyone — including themselves.

Brand new data:

Republicans blamed for the shutdown (+12) and for health care premiums going up (+28!!).

These are stunning numbers. Republicans aren't immune from the pressure this creates.

Time to press our advantage. Stand for what we believe in.

just a reminder to folks who might not know that psychology today is basically a glorified blog. it's not peer-reviewed and it's not held to any particular journalistic or ethical standards. it's not a trustworthy resource for researching anything you don't already know about

Zohran's success will hinge equally on what he is ABLE to do and how effectively he messages to voters when the federal govt of wealthy interests / police, etc in NYC deliberately sabotage things.

we've seen this shit in oregon with elites lining up to torpedo progressive measures

God I need more popcorn...

Photo of NBC’s exit poll data (from my work laptop, lol) showing Mamdani splitting the straight vote equally with Cuomo, but taking the LGBTQ+ vote by more than 5:1. Even though the LGBTQ+ slice is only 14% of the population, they were a LANDSLIDE in his favor.

This needs more attention: Zohran SPLIT the straights with Cuomo. ALL of his margin was from LGBTQ+ voters. Every Dem who ever said “we should abandon the transes” needs this shoved down their fucking throat with a ramrod.

picture of dick cheney and it has a morrowind text window saying "with this character's death, the thread of prophecy is restored. The weave of fate is stronger than ever, you've no need to persist in the doomed world they have created."

No matter how hard people try to convince us having empathy is wrong,

it is right.

No matter how hard people try to convince us that diversity is a weakness,

it is a strength.

No matter how hard people try to convince us that love is limited,

it is unlimited.

Tap the sign meme saying “Using AI ironically is still using AI.”

Don’t make me tap the sign.

Hey just a regular reminder to transphobes to get fucked. If any are still following me please lick the bottom of a dumpster and then go jump in a pool of dog shit. No one wants you around. Today's election results are a strong message: we win when we fight for our trans family 🏳️‍⚧️

This is how it looked on the ballot.
Clear and easy to understand.

this was for a colorado measure guaranteeing universal free lunch for kids. funny how a short two-column table can say so much in so little space.

Trans rights is a winning platform. Pro immigration is a winning platform. Taxing the rich is a winning platform. Affordable housing is a winning platform. Free childcare is a winning platform. Hating Andrew Cuomo is a winning platform. SOCIALISM IS A WINNING PLATFORM

And note that he never rejected what some sneeringly refer to as "idpol". Never came close to throwing minorities under the bus. On the contrary. The affordability agenda came hand in hand with him actively standing up for those principles. He could never have mobilised his base like this otherwise.

Zohran's campaign was his determination to make New York a city everyone can afford to live in. Huge congratulations!

His success will resonate throughout the world. A story where no one is left behind.

It's time to write that story across England & Wales too.

a lot of people are quoting this and saying things like “standing up for trans rights is a winning political strategy” and while I agree with this, win or lose standing up for trans rights is important - no, vital - because it’s the right thing to do.

I am so upset.

Last week Time Magazine solicited a piece from me on Zohran Mamdani & anti-Muslim hate. I pitched a framing re the dehumanization of Muslims & how Mamdani’s inclusive, socialist campaign in its content resists that. They agreed. I wrote the piece. 1/

basically every 2024 truism is dead. Trump did not build a lasting multiracial coalition or turn young men into committed Republicans. You don’t need to cave on trans rights to win. The pundits have nothing left to tell you.

I don't know if it's just me, but I've gotten the sense recently that transphobia a political tool is already played out. Not only is it not a winner, but it really feels like the right overplayed their hand with anti-trans hate and people generally seem sick of it, sick of bulling running on hate.

The guy who ran on this ad just spanked the pants off an Establishment Dem

This is what the base will turn out for

youtu.be/bEvVSpN0BXg?...

Republicans running anti-trans hatefests lost and Zohran Mamdani is a hugely vocal supporter of trans and other LGBTQ rights.

That is MASSIVELY important to look at and run on.

Roll around in all this & soak it in. This is the good shit, & it should be celebrated.

And then it should be Built on.

just want to remind everyone again that zohran is the one cis candidate i am aware of that had his platform on trans rights written by trans people. i think that matters

If you are a Democratic senator watching these results and the lesson you take is "I should cave and help Republicans reopen the government for nothing more than a promise written on toilet paper" then you shouldn't be in the Senate anymore

We now go live to Andrew Cuomo for his concession speech.

This is why you can't succumb to nihilism. I know it's SO fucking hard, but that's what the fash want: for us to give up. Fuck them, it's not over

There are more of us than there are of them.

Maybe nobody in the great big world cares about this.
But the public libraries in tiny Jefferson County in Northern Appalachia were in danger of losing their tax funding thanks to right-wing book banners. And we won. The library's funding is safe!!!!!
