Oh, and after all the millions of dollars spent on advertising, the harmful policies and all the demagoguery...

Stop.
Picking.
On.
Trans.
Kids.

The Rs lost to me four times in six years. That should've been a hint. But apparently it wasn't, so the voters made their thoughts crystal clear tonight.

3) They wrecked NOVA's economy, firing our workers and contractors, and then furloughing those who are left by shutting down the government for the purpose of making sure people can't afford health insurance.
Or food for that matter.

WTH did they think was going to happen at the ballot box?

Agree. Be yourself. At least be creative with self-promotion. Shitpost as a character or draw art or something. (I don't suggest spending six months on a CGI trailer for a book.)

I've gotten to know other authors when they do this, because it said as much about their personality as their fixations.

guess what passed baby awooooo

[in a way I haven't truly meant it all year] nice

Just so everyone understand NYC:

Staten Island is where all the NYPD and their families live.

Don't forget that Zohran Mamdani spent his entire campaign standing proudly beside the trans community. He went to trans rights rallies just to show support. He proudly waved trans rights flags without hesitation. He refused to back down in support of trans rights. That makes me happy.

reposting this one CAUSE ONCE AGAIN VERY RELEVANT

Everyone is hope scrolling now

I gotta give it up to the writers tho. If NYC elects a Muslim mayor on the day Dick Cheney died, that is one hell of a slow played story arc. Every time you want to fire 2025's writers room they give you a little narrative resolution as a treat.

REALISM IS IMPORTANT BUT DOOMERISM IS LOSERISM

if you didn't follow the VA governor race you didn't know that Earle-Sears ran like a billion anti-trans campaign ads and Spanberger didn't flinch or pull a Newsom.

going all-in against trans people is a losing move, especially when the federal government has made harming and killing us a priority.

darksouls text "MORALE BOOSTED" over the winning dem election results

i could cry rn

Mamdani: "We can respond to oligarchy and authoritarianism with the strength it fears, not the appeasement it craves. After all, if anyone can show a nation betrayed by Donald Trump how to defeat him, it is the city that gave rise to him."

"You campaign in poetry. You govern in prose.” Fucking SAVAGE for him to invoke Mario Cuomo.

WATCH: Zohran Mamdani addresses supporters after winning NYC mayoral race Mamdani defeated former Gov. Andrew Cuomo and Republican Curtis Sliwa.

www.pbs.org/newshour/pol... you might have to scroll quite a bit to get to his speech but definitely worth the watch!

Good things are possible and we don’t have to settle.

i hope this election cycle empowers everyone the next time a centrist liberal says to drop pro-trans and pro-immigrant rhetoric to enthusiastically tell them to shut the fuck up

I know everyone's really stoked about New York right now, but I'm also really happy to report that Boston's Mayor won in a default because she smoked her millionaire opponent so hard he gave up two whole months ago.

As many have pointed out, Mamdani didn't stand apart from our trans brothers and sisters. He didn't play the "Gee, gosh, it sure is complicated," milquetoast moderate card. And he crushed.

The way forward is together, not over the bodies of our own.

decent people tonight be like:

For years, but especially for the past year, Democrats have been in thrall to the idea that they need to chase an imagined median voter, and adopt that voter’s positions. Mamdani’s victory shows another way: hold principles, and persuade people to share them.

And this is how I heard about Dick Cheney.

I love the Internet sometimes.

I mustve posted this one already right

hire all the fired political teen vogue writers and make a new magazine call teen rogue.

we’ll all subscribe en masse

today’s information came out piecemeal, and people should be able to share their own situations on their own time, but I could share this much ^ as it is pretty cut and dry on the facts.

Teen Vogue also no longer has any trans staffers as of today.

thank you for all the support; the statement from our union is now live here with some more reporting.

now that this is public I can confirm that the majority of today’s layoffs were women of color. there are no longer any Black women working at Teen Vogue.

Olympic-level shooting yourself in the fucking foot to destroy the parts of your magazine that garnered awards and huge traffic/circulation increases just so you can fire all your employees of color which I’m forced to conclude was the goal

I can’t emphasize enough right now that the millionaires tax in Massachusetts has allowed public schools to provide free lunch and breakfast for all students. We can take their money and do good things with it!
