Josh Shapiro won’t get off the ground if he runs for president (🤞) but I’m interested to see if his voice and cadence switch to mamdani’s (like Buttigieg he was doing a pretty obvious Obama for awhile)

look Helen Andrews is the worst but I always smile about how she was basically just carrying out libertarians' amoral notion of 'female behavior' to its logical conclusion. Let's see those fistfights, you alpha males

one of the only leftist successes that I was part of in NY was the Build Public Renewables Act and Hochul kept industry flack Justin Driscoll around to stymie it

(yeah it's hard to say something like this without seeming parasocial but just from a societal culture perspective he got my hopes up with the billionares as rabid dogs thing and then totally debased himself almost immediately)

lol

I have no sense of the norms but my default advice is "go nuts, short of actually going nuts, & ignore the haters"

Very good episode / I was ignorant about most of this @trashfuture.bsky.social

(I mean that helped him in a narrow sense like if Trump had endorsed sliwa Cuomo would have probably got ~15% and Sliwa ~25%)

“mom’s elderly AA friend who has recruited my elderly mom for assistance, who then calls me” tech support is so cursed it’s actually pretty fun the couple times a year it happens, like I wish I had recorded the 10 minutes of miscommunications re: usb receivers

NYPD pout time

Looking forward to learning all about how the right should move left to win elections tomorrow. They should maybe dye their hair pink, learn to love pronouns.

36% of votes in, 51.5% mamdani, 39.7% Cuomo, 8.0% Sliwa

looking good

the PMC is mostly careerist bootlicking cowards

Re blocking, I have been surprised by specifics at times (eg said I wanted to go to Finger Lakes and my maga bro “informed” me it was a pedo place), but don’t think the *many* expressly conservative and lib takes I *have* seen have been worthwhile in any deeper sense. Got the gist years ago.

A glance at the apex power players and you should realize that everyone being loyal to their boss is sufficient to afford fascism.

I'm like the radical centrist's radical centrist, it's amazing how little I believe in

For a man who ran on a slogan of “not me, us” Bernie seems very invested in the idea that the movement needs this one specific guy. Esp after Fetterman NO ONE should be expected to just trust that Platner is who he says, in the face of all the evidence to the contrary. Condescending take Senator.

I'm not sure those takes would have survived contact with a chatbot, yet alone chotiner

if you're not familiar with the Welcome Party, they "elect, convene, and amplify bold, pragmatic leaders who represent the middle." Hard to pick from all the risible pull quotes here: www.welcomestack.org/p/what-welco...

(Cuomo lacks Trump's flair for entertainment but otherwise he's basically the same dude.)

We still might get a ski doo or something in there don’t lose hope

The Crime of Human Virtue Sometimes it really is as simple as good vs. evil. This is one of those times. Human virtue is our great crime against the fascist project; it's also our great weapon against it.

I wrote about a new Nazi party that seeks to criminalize all human virtue, and how that means that human virtue is the greatest weapon against the new Nazi project.

“slopulist” is great

(Happy to forgive them / work with them to extent makes sense but: I haven’t see a lot of apologies, but have seen a lot of nitpicking and nutpicking and relitigation backsliding)
