It's not a foolproof plan but every political debate from now on should be a Normal Guy competition. Ask them to describe grocery shopping in detail. Talk about what it's like to have a friend

Predictable but still amazing to watch people who spent literally years accusing every librarian, teacher, and trans person they could find of sexually grooming children suddenly throw themselves in with "actually it's ephebophilia"

In defining rape in law and public discourse, Catharine MacKinnon wrote, "The level of acceptable force is adjudicated starting just above the level set by what is seen as normal male sexual behavior, including the normal level of force, rather than at the victim's, or women's, point of violation."

this is far from the most important thing about the Epstein emails, but my God, that man could not type.

got a post auto-removed on r/pittsburgh because I included the word "selling," and I have just written a very earnest appeal explaining that I simply want some khachapuri and don't know where to find it. baby yearns for salty cheese.

🚨BREAKING: STRIKERS WIN!

The order affirms what we’ve said all along: The PG’s lawless union-busting cannot stand. We made sure it didn’t. We’re taking back what they stole from us. We won this strike.

This also applies to health insurance. It’s important we discuss the details of what’s happening, but you have to bear in mind that the man literally does not know what health insurance is.

The way all of these people convinced themselves that Mamdani is antisemitic is a subject far more worthy of media examination than any of the β€˜groupthink on campuses!’ thinkpieces we’ve been subjected to

it's insanely funny for people to be talking like this about New York of all places, the city with a big metal lady in the harbor holding a sign that says "we love immigrants"

β€œHe doesn’t have a mandate” are you fucking kidding? Dick Cheney died the day Zohran is elected he has the mandate of HEAVEN

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.

I am of two minds right now.

1) I have no belief nor do I have any faith in the two party system, and 2) GOD IT FEELS GOOD TO SEE THE REPUBLICANS GET DOG WALKED AT THE POLLS ALL OVER THE COUNTRY TONIGHT.

Something I love about archival films is that when someone had a couple feet of film left on a roll they'd often use it to film their cat. So many films finish with a few seconds of cats

So, here's some cats from the 1950s and 60s. They were loved

I just read this, and wow, wow, wow, yes. I’m lucky that my own experience has been different - but it’s been different in ways that only underscore your point.

Between this and SNAP benefits being cut off, it’s more apparent than ever that the leaders of the Republican Party want to kill poor people. There is no other explanation for what they are doing.

When I worked as a HUD caseworker, LIHEAP season was a godsend for my clients, especially when many of them lived in old, drafty Pittsburgh homes β€œmaintained” by slumlords.

Energy bills are up all around this year. Summer storms proved that the infrastructure here is more strained than ever.
