agreeing to make a terrible deal while your main opponent is quite literally being boo'd on live tv by an entire stadium of people is the kind of political instinct you'd normally only find in a 3 week old dead goldfish

They clearly picked people who aren't up next year. They do this all the time. It's never just the defectors who are to blame, because they're all in on it together

How about we shut down the government for this very popular and specific goal and then, hear me out, we hold out for like a month and a half and then, ok this part is important, after a watershed election where we ran the table, ONLY THEN, fold and don't get the one thing we said we wanted.

This is the ideal male body. You may not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like.

Moderate Democrats saw that voters were energized and might expect something from them, so they needed to put a stop to that ASAP

i unsubscribed and told youtube never to recommend babish to me once he took the hogwarts legacy money in 2023, after years of watching his videos

it's shockingly easy to let go

SNAP update: Alabama sending $300 to needy families, $5M to food banks as shutdown continues Gov. Kay Ivey announced she will tap into the state’s emergency fund to help during the government shutdown.

this is not a defense of my garbage state or its governance, but rather to say that even some red states see the writing on the wall

Newsweek posted this map early Tuesday Nov. 4, and Alabama Governor Kay Ivey changed our color to "teal" later that day

I am so upset.

Last week Time Magazine solicited a piece from me on Zohran Mamdani & anti-Muslim hate. I pitched a framing re the dehumanization of Muslims & how Mamdani’s inclusive, socialist campaign in its content resists that. They agreed. I wrote the piece. 1/

ok ignoring the whole "goal of the sport is to knock this camera so far it's a guaranteed property loss"

i do wonder if materials/mechanical engineering is advanced enough to let dozens of small camera sustain a hit from a big wooden stick even a few times

i think if you ride public transit enough you learn that most weird behavior is not dangerous, and conversely i think driving a car teaches you that everyone is trying to kill you at all times

Zohran caught in LIES: Mamdani claims to have "loved Final Fantasy III" when he was growing up. yet research indicates that the game he played was in fact the SIXTH Final Fantasy game

there was one in Birmingham, AL (of all places) in the late 90s whose name escapes my memory

it was a zero-alcohol (except smuggled) dance club that plenty of my art school friends went to on the weekends, but i never visited. could probably call up folks to figure out the name if you want it.

Disabled people should be allowed to get married without losing our healthcare. We shouldn’t have to choose between weddings and staying alive. In 2025 we still have no marriage rights or property rights. We never have, and it’s total shit. Fuck Eugenics, we deserve so much better.

Remember folks. The original bluesky ethos by us bluesky elders (apparently I count?) is block and move on.

Don't quote dunk, don't pick fights.
Block, and move on.

This is what made this site unpalatable to the right early on, and we can continue to make it unpalatable to them.
