So they’re doing it for… the optics? Buddy…

Oh, well fuck, the last thing these people would ever want to do is "something shameful"

Ladies and gentlemen, we got 'em!!!!!

If your position is that Democrats have no choice but to agree, than you are impliedly admitting the Democrats are no longer an opposition party because the cost of opposition is too high, and we are effectively a one party fascist state.

So every freelancer you know is going to lose their insurance or be bankrupted by premiums because Schumer is an invertebrate

No.

Last night, the Trump Administration sent a letter suggesting Wisconsin should return our FoodShare payments.

Good morning! AI is being force-fed to you by a handful of billionaires who will lose a bunch of money if they fail to convince you that you need it. You do not need it 🫶

Wish the devs would stop fucking up this perfectly good product they accidentally made.

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default.

Here's how to turn it off.

First go to the hamburger menu in the upper left corner

“In 2029 we will use antitrust law to break up all companies that went through mergers after donating more than one million $ to President Trump while merger was being reviewed.”

This really hasn’t gotten enough attention this week.

Photo of NBC’s exit poll data (from my work laptop, lol) showing Mamdani splitting the straight vote equally with Cuomo, but taking the LGBTQ+ vote by more than 5:1. Even though the LGBTQ+ slice is only 14% of the population, they were a LANDSLIDE in his favor.

This needs more attention: Zohran SPLIT the straights with Cuomo. ALL of his margin was from LGBTQ+ voters. Every Dem who ever said “we should abandon the transes” needs this shoved down their fucking throat with a ramrod.

Little Wins Ward E Council Seat, Avoids Runoff Eleana Little won the Ward E council seat in Jersey City on Tuesday, securing 52.13% of the vote and avoiding a runoff election. With 96.3% of districts reporting, Little received […]

"Eleana Little won the Ward E council seat in Jersey City on Tuesday, securing 52.13% of the vote"

Read the last sentence as many times as you need to, gang.

we can't let our very own Cuomo candidate win in this run off. Our voter turnout is so sad bc corruption and organized abandonment in Hudson county, but I really would love to not have McSkeevey be our mayor

“I wish Andrew Cuomo only the best in private life”

Democratic party leadership has been on autopilot for ten years, they weren't losing to fascism, fascism isn't popular enough for them to lose to fascism, they were allowing it to fill the void where their leadership should have been. Tonight we're seeing that we have other options. They should too.

Hell yeah

He has declared war on Trump and made people excited about being New Yorkers. I’m already proud to live here and my god, that was the best NYC pride, don’t fuck with us speech I’ve heard in my lifetime

really important element of this basically total victory is that it puts the fear of god in republican incumbents and may bring the redistricting push to a total halt

Winsome lose some

[bursts in door] never forget that Dick Van Dyke once got rescued by porpoises after he drifted out to sea on a surfboard

Cheney in Hell. Demon baby: We do not torture.

As a biologist, It really is a great analogy. Also trees. It's like saying, "There are trees and grass, you have to be one or the other." Ok... where is the line that defines "is a tree?" what about bush-like grasses? Palm trees? NON-tree palms? What about horsetails and their tree-like ancestors?

Hearing even a *reference* to The Monster Mash ANY time of the year is infuriating. The song absolutely sucks and modern civilization shouldn’t even be aware of it. You should not and cannot and MUST NOT defend it. Let the worms of history finally have their feast.

Do 2021 pandemic habits factor into these changes? I know I voted by mail back then, but I’m planning to vote in-person this year.
