The first exit polls are not weighted to the election results. These numbers will likely change as the night progresses.

... I needed this today.

Thank you.

THIS!!!

I don't care what the polls say.
I don't care what the odds say.
I don't care what the online and TV pundits say.

NYC, if you haven't voted for Zohran Mamdani, please go.
If you voted, please ask your friends.

Let's leave no stone unturned. The movement is now.

We don’t know the cause of this crash and I won’t speculate, but it’s pretty clear that there are likely to be casualties on the ground. The crash site is massive. It’s unreal.

Turnout in the NYC mayoral election: the highest since 1993.

Give people something to vote for (or against) and apathy falls away.

So exciting.
Love and miss NYC.

Good lord, the horror show continues.

Body cams apparently show Border Patrol agents joking about tossing tear gas at a nonviolent protest, with one agent saying "Hey, throw it [tear gas] for fun."

Agents then tried to drive away, but there was apparently so much tear gas they were overcome, couldn't drive, and had to leave on foot.

My partner saw a giant black plume drifting over our neighborhood here in Louisville. Five minutes later, a shelter-in-place warning went off on our phones.

A UPS cargo plane crashed. At least 3 people are dead, if not more. The air smells horrible, and big pieces of ash are falling in my yard.

One of my rescue friends is battling to save two kittens with panleuk. This is the boogeyman disease of kitten rescue.

Crits For Cats does amazing work. If you’re able to drop even a few dollars it can be the difference maker.

I won’t lie, the odds are long. But this is a fight worth fighting

If it’s any indication of where things are going, the VA-focused Republican analytics firm that works down the hall from us (who was here till 5am in 2024) has already packed and gone home.

UPS flight #5X2976 crashed during takeoff from Louisville this afternoon. The MD-11F was bound for Honolulu. Video from the scene and imagery from local new helicopters indicate damage to the aircraft prior to becoming airborne. www.flightradar24.com/data/aircraf...

Logan Square, you're alright

Putting everything else aside, I cannot tell you how much it irrationally pisses me off that people post this stuff when Mamdani is Shi'a.

GOD DAMMIT THE ISLAMIC STATE IS FUCKING SUNNI

My Jewish brothers are shocked to discover there’s Nazi-ing going on at the Nazi bar.

Locked in with @arimelber.bsky.social.

Meet our newest patient here at the Alaska Raptor Center, a Northern Pygmy Owl named King Owlbert by his rescuers. Owlbert arrived with a drooping wing, making flight difficult. We’ve given him a supportive wing wrap, plenty of tasty mice, and time to heal. #small #owls #adorable

Up is down, light is dark, the moon is the sun, east is west

If you're in line, stay in line. Bring your friends. Camp out in front of your precinct. Bring a grill. Leftover Halloween candy.

He is also a fool. Angela Merkel didn’t let all the Syrians in just because she has a good heart; she had a good long look at the demographics necessary to support the sputtering German economy, and the answer is immigrants. Merz libels these smart, motivated, hard working people at his own peril.

“For my friends, everything. For my enemies, the sword.”

Whew, that poor child.

A UPS plane has crashed immediately after takeoff from Louisville KY, bound for Honolulu.

There’s a reason that Chris Buskirk reposted the WaPo piece about him without criticism. Thread. bsky.app/profile/jenn...

Oh my god. Oh god. Oh no.

Nick Pettigrew @Nick_Pettigrew Polio was eradicated because Jonas Salk chose not to patent the vaccine, if you want a perfect example of a socialist act. Quote Garry Kasparov @Kasparov63 · Jun 24 Socialism is like polio, it comes back when people forget about the horrible damage it did last time.

REMINDER: A socialist act by a New Yorker was a major reason why polio was eliminated in the US.

Never seen a line at this polling place ever, much less a twenty minute wait. Hope this is the case everywhere

My dad knew Cheney since he was fords chief of staff and would always say “i liked him then. Idk what the hell happened”
In the run up to the second Iraq war my dad wrote an article comparing it to the gulf of Tonkin and Cheney himself made sure my father was fired from his gov job

Anyway he’s dead

the kookaburra is back after not seeing him for a while
