we’ll see how his mayoral tenure shakes out but i am convinced that Mamdani has the juice. not just the charisma to win an election but the temperament to govern and the measured pragmatism of someone who genuinely believes what they’re saying and wants to accomplish real things.

Fishbone, coming in heavy with the gawd damned theramin!!! So here for it. I do love an unhinged, cantankerous sounding song.

Who needs talent when you can surround yourself with sycophants?

I’m autistic. Not because of Tylenol.
Not because of vaccines.
Not because of some headline.
I’m autistic because that’s how
my brain works. Stop treating us

This entire administration - from the top, down - Miller, Trump, Vance, Jordan, Leavitt, Mace, Noem, every one of them is a child-minded malcontent. Talking loud & saying nothing is all they've got. It's their only strategy. The vapidity. IT BURNS!

Buh-bye

Republicans control the House, the Senate & the White House.

We are not “great” without it. We are vulnerable to threats from sporadic foodborne illness to bioterrorism.

Oregon general’s testimony that National Guard troops ‘will be protecting any protesters’ gains traction online Brigadier General Alan R. Gronewold made the comments to state lawmakers Sept. 30, and they drew notice on social media this week.

I just watched the video of the Portland Cop threatening to arrest an ICE agent if they drive their truck through a crowd. Now I see this where the General of the Oregon National Guard says if they get called up they will protect the protesters. People are fed up.

Poilievre is Canada's most prolific rage-farming, populist liar whose entire 20 year long career in politics has been rife with persistent delusion and skullduggery.

He is a duplicitous rogue, definitely not to be believed.

Republicans are flirting with the idea of allowing pay/support to their military service members & their families to lapse, all so they can continue trying to run cover for a ring of powerful pedophiles.

Plenary authority, the dictator phrase that caused Stephen Miller to stop talking Miller suggests Trump wields absolute power over decisions to send in the National Guard, before suddenly stopping speaking in an awkward interview moment

The hate-bot is malfunctioning.

It is striking that they are the only Palestine-related groups listed-- perhaps a testament to how deeply Israel's defenders feel threatened by Jewish dissent. It recalls of course the long antisemitic legacy of McCarthyism, and for that reason alone,

A message of hopefulness from an interwebs elder. The Green brothers continue to be a wellspring of hope for me.

Yuuup.

Thanks so much, Nate. I hate that I'm almost definitely not the only one this person has treated this way. 💖

Sometimes kindness looks like knocking out a Nazi.

Gawd help us.

Progress marches to the beating of caring hearts, which means we need every single one of you to learn to rest, so you don't quit.

Love yourselves. Love each other. We're #StrongerTogether.
✊💖

Going to keep hammering this message.
