is this the Adam Friedland set?

should've just studied international relations or went to law school 💔💔💔

all my dreams of pursuing a PHD fading into the abyss the second I try to understand Travel Demand and Dynamic Route Choice modeling

I'm slowly realizing, based on the vibes from my friends, that it is actually a Sad Cowboy Fall

to be clear: every person I like is punching up and has a super hot and cool partner, and everyone I dislike is dating a troll

I'm sure it's been said before but,,, as miserable single guy, national boyfriend/girlfriend days are always fun for me because I get to go on social media and judge everyone's relationships and see who's punching up/down.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Governor Polis Orders Flags to Half-Staff to Honor the Anniversary of September 11th and the Passing of Charlie Kirk

Someone shot up my kid's school today, and our governor is paying tribute to a guy who thought that is an acceptable price to pay for having the Second Amendment.

Jared Polis has failed Colorado.

not a band but people keep assuming I listen to Mk. Gee and that kinda sucks. I guess I don't hate them but still do not listen to them

delayed 4hrs+ for the second United flight in a row, high speed rail would never do this to me

*walking around Queens* "What is this Long Island City?? "

Trump's BLS pick EJ Antoni has said that Social Security, America's greatest anti-poverty program, is a "Ponzi scheme" that needs to be sunset.

Reminder that BLS data is what determines annual cost-of-living adjustments for Social Security benefits.

This is a five-alarm fire.

I gotta say I am constantly deleting twit** and reactivating my account (so that it doesn't get deleted forever because I'm sentimental and don't want to lose it) but never with this app. it doesn't give me same existential dread as twit**. which is nice but also means it's not accurate

Let's focus on qualifications: Antoni finished grad school 5 years ago at Northern Illinois with no distinction. Dissertation: No focus on labor or data collection. Zero publications. One lifetime citation (by a former colleague).

This record would not earn you a job as junior economist at BLS.

It’s so great that all the “oh I can’t say slurs what is this 1984” (a book they’ve never nor possibly cannot read) ghouls have opted to just advocate directly for surveillance and that it’s just going to happen because fascists and neoliberals both love to tighten a grip.

if one more person asks me if I like Mk. Gee I'm gonna explode STOP PROFILING ME

soon: "this bird can run Doom"

if you don't wear socks to the airport you're a FREAK

oh, we have some straightforward gutter racism. “the blacks and the browns are the reason white people can’t get ahead” www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2...

It’s almost like Americans were never fundamentally, inevitably “anti-immigration” and Democrats never had to just put their hands up and meekly chase Republicans (and lose), and affirm all their anti-immigrant positions that helped get us here at all!

“The New York Times collaborated with a white nationalist eugenicist hacker and agreed to keep his identity a secret to publish a Zohran Mamdani hit piece” is a way bigger story than “18 year old Zohran Mamdani ticked ‘African American’ on his Columbia application because he was a citizen of Uganda”

Too many non-working holidays in America. It is costing our Country $BILLIONS OF DOLLARS to keep all of these businesses closed. The workers don’t want it either! Soon we’ll end up having a holiday for every once working day of the year. It must change if we are going to, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!

Coping, seething, etc

surprising amount of spine by Hochul here

ICE just arrested Brad Lander, the NYC Comptroller and one of the leading candidates for Mayor, without grounds.

He was conducting routine immigration court work, escorting individuals from hearings.

He asked ICE for their warrant - well within his legal rights.

This is political intimidation.
