Saw them at Northwestern University in 1977, or maybe 1978. Terrific show.

Andrew Cuomo gave more money in taxpayer subsidies to Elon Musk than the entire cost of Zohran Mamdani’s free bus plan.

It’s not unreasonable or radical to want our tax dollars to go to programs that help us, instead of as giveaways to billionaires.

I'm tired of seeing headlines highlighting Mamdani's religion.
Don't see ones that say "So and so is the 5,300th Christian elected today"

It’s early, but this might be my favorite tweet.

Zohran was polling at six percent in January. Nothing is impossible

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!!!!!

There's good shit on those free streaming services.

I'm happy that Mamdani won. But I won't let that get in the way of my celebrating Cuomo losing.

We Asked DHS if Federal Agents Wore Horror Masks on Raids. They Responded ‘Happy Halloween! ~ L.A. TACO “They have fun while doing it, which is deeply disturbing. We expect some level of decorum from government officials,” says Phoebe, a member of Harbor Area Peace Patrols, who snapped the photo of the ...

In Chicago, DHS refused to pause the raids and arrests so kids could go trick-or-treating without the risk of getting tear-gassed or subjected to violence.

Meanwhile, DHS agents in Los Angeles celebrated the holiday by conducting raids while wearing horror movie masks.

Sadism as public policy.

This post is divisive. Or at least based on division.

which equals Three Dog Night

Just want to reiterate that there’s no reason for this. There is no increase in crime. There are no riots. There’s no insurrection. They’re doing this without provocation. At least until they create one.

OK. I learned something. Thanks.

Statewide? Is that really a big deal in Maine? I honestly don't know, I'm asking. Is Portland that much different politically than the rest of it?

Sending troops from Texas to forcefully occupy and suppress cities in Illinois and Oregon IN OPPOSITION TO THOSE STATES' GOVERNORS is literally a civil war and it's cooking my brain that Democrats are simply pretending it isn't happening

quick while the government is shut down let’s all switch to metric

Terrible thing, being an advocate for keeping Earth inhabitable.

I'm sure he doesn't type anything. The posts used to be riddled with typos and gibberish words. Now they aren't. There is zero chance that's because he is getting better.

I like the play clock change before the three-minute warning. What happens after the three-minute warning? The 20-second play clock allows teams to get the ball back quickly and produces a lot of those wild finishes.

Hey Chat, what’s the french for cat.

On Election Night in 2016 I was struck by the thought, "I have no home country." It took me a while to recalibrate my worldview.

A grim reminder: these people will never be satisfied. There’s no point at which they will say “we’ve won, let’s enjoy life.” They will always be looking for someone else to punish, to revile, to dehumanize. They’re empty without that.

Nah, it's their fault.

"Political violence"?

Is taking food from people to enrich the wealthy "political violence"?

Is taking healthcare from people to enrich the wealthy "political violence"?

Is exploiting poor & elderly "political violence"?

Is using masked gangs to abduct people "political violence"?

Is forcing

Why would any foreign country invest in a nation that did this?

Important to remember that everyone involved in renaming the DoD to the Department of War is afraid to take the subway.

We just got confirmation that in June of this year, there was actually NET JOB LOSS. The first time since 2020.

Wonder who the president was during both of these times...

Trump's brain is soup.

We wanted to know what Republicans plan to do with the Epstein files. So we talked to an au pair at a beer garden in Georgetown.
