Dr. Seasonal Creep

This is my assessment as well. They know if they name how horrific the horrors are, they'll be stuck having to push back on whatever the new political status quo is in 2027

"ICE coming to Newport to terrorize our immigrant workers is one issue," Hoyle said in a text message. "The other is that a Coast Guard rescue helicopter being moved from Newport to North Bend (Oregon) on the cusp of crabbing season puts lives in danger. That's a fact." The Coast Guard has operated a rescue helicopter out of Newport for nearly four decades. Congress approved the outpost in the '80s, amid concerns that a Coast Guard base in North Bend, roughly 100 miles south, was too far away to promptly respond to emergencies in an area with a large commercial fishing fleet. Past attempts to close the Newport air base have prompted fierce outcry from groups like Newport Fishermen's Wives. But Hoyle said Monday she'd learned the Coast Guard moved the helicopter to North Bend on Oct. 30.

speaking of maritime disasters ICE is going to drown a bunch of fishermen here in oregon

I know I'm a day late on this, but:

Taschlers at the NHK exhibition!

TASCHLERS AT THE NHK EXHIBITION!!!

*breathing into paper bag*

Related: I will never get over pundits saying the VP debate was a tie or that Vance won after "the rules were that you guys weren't going to fact-check."

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.

Modest proposal:

in the same way that you should no longer be permitted to deem yourself a feminist if you're racist / gc / right wing, you should no longer be permitted to deem yourself a writer if you use commercial genAI for anything.

"The day NYC elects a Muslim Mayor will be the day I die."

--Dick Cheney probably

Screen grab from the NYT saying WINNER Zohran Mamdani, a Democrat, wins the New York City mayoral race. Race called by The Associated Press Latest results from 1m ago 69% of votes in

ALL RIGHT AP JUST CALLED IT WITH 69% OF THE VOTE HA HA HA HA

VP Cheney will be honoured with a 21 gun salute accidentally aimed directly at 21 of his friends

Andrew Cuomo gave more money in taxpayer subsidies to Elon Musk than the entire cost of Zohran Mamdani’s free bus plan.

It’s not unreasonable or radical to want our tax dollars to go to programs that help us, instead of as giveaways to billionaires.

Bold of Zohran to murder Dick Cheney as his final campaign stunt

PSA: Satanic Temple is led by a reactionary, borderline-fascist grifter.

PLEASE do not amplify the claim that they are magically going to feed a big bunch of the WIC/SNAP folks set to go hungry.

At a minimum, that's doing free PR for bad people.

And it potentially gives the impacted false hope.

Since we’re talking BUNNICULA I need everyone to know that the audiobook is read by Victor Garber and he truly out-gays himself. Harold and Chester absolutely come across as the fussy middle-aged couple they were obviously meant to be.

He reminds me of friends I had in middle school, which is not a compliment to anyone involved (including myself). I went to middle school in Ohio. He is Ohio’s wet, sticky, rotting heart. The one who’s near future plans depend on the difference in legal consequences for juveniles vs adults.

Leaked document. Yikes, things are about to get much worse. It looks like we’re on the verge of becoming a military state across the country. Step out of line, and the man come and take you away.

I'm shaking almost too hard to type. I entered SLC airport and heard screams and cries for help. I could see people gathered around, watching. I sped over to discover this woman face down on the floor, four grown men pushing her down, while she cried "HELP ME" and pled for her child.

Remember to mask up, folks.

i think the last good thing to happen was when that olympic pole vaulter hit the bar with his giant cock

Elon just feels this entitlement to be involved in spreading white power in all these governments. It's like you don't even go here! Tried to conquest the US now he hopes to triumph in the UK.

Also I love that these ‘critics’ are essentially saying that they only support histories told from the perspectives of the oppressors and powerful.

History will always be a battleground for fascists. Because they know it’s power.

THIS is how you reject a faulty premise. Don’t rush past the facts to argue with a straw man. Remind everyone of the facts first!

A message to the ISU:

This is not wrestling. You don't have to prop up heels with bafflingly high scores so the viewing audience sees them as a threat to the faces. In fact, you don't need to have heels AT ALL!

But if you insist, at least let Sota hit Daniel with a folding chair on occasion.

Amazon is the employer with the most employees on Medicaid in the state of Nevada. Walmart is second. (Recent national stats broken out by employer are unavailable, prob because employers don’t want us to know the social safety net is a corporate subsidy.)

CEOs are the only real welfare queens.

I love Junhwan Cha as a skater, but why the utterly cursed music this season?

You know who the real freeloaders in this country are? Not people who rely on SNAP, but corporations whose business model depends on wages so low that taxpayers have to feed their workers.

Marc Lobliner post on X: "Why the hell are we giving food stamps to 40 million people? Does anyone work anymore?"

SNAP isn't about "people who don't work." It's about people who don't get paid enough to live.

Of the 40 or so million people who rely on food stamps:

* Two-thirds are children, seniors, or disabled

* Most working-age adults who receive SNAP are employed—but in jobs that pay poverty wages

Workers Are Losing Over $4 Billion in Unspent FSA Money a Year An exclusive Money analysis finds that 47% of workers failed to drain their FSA balances in 2023, adding up to billions in lost money.

I've been harping on using FSA funds because workers lose $4 BILLION in unspent funds each year. I don't think many people even know about the FSA store as just one example of a simpler way to spend some of that money. Use it for others if you don't need it yourself.

Inside the Clunky Elections to Control Pennsylvania's Supreme Court - Bolts The GOP is making an expensive push to end Democrats’ majority on a court at the center of election lawsuits, sparking a fledging campaign season with little precedent or template.

If Dems win the Supreme Court races in Pennsylvania in 9 days, it’s extremely likely the GOP can’t get a majority on that court until 2029.

The GOP really wants to have this majority during the 2028 presidential race.

Can’t put the stakes any more clearly than that. boltsmag.org/pennsylvania...
