Three times!!!

If this guy loses I think we're done with everything and I don't mean that in a hyperbolic sense at all. Like if this guy can't get elected, our hearts are too fucking dark to be happy and hope for a brighter future because it'll mean we chose Cuomo

Congressional Candidate Kat Abughazaleh Walked Off My Interview — Here’s What Happened

Today's winner of the "Please STFU" Award is Kat Abughazaleh.

She was right to hang up! Don't talk about the facts of your federal indictment on a podcast! Or anywhere except your lawyer's office!

Sincerely,

Every Lawyer, Literally All Of Us, Heed Our Counsel And Shut The Fuck Up

wow you're telling me kat is smart enough to not discuss ongoing criminal litigation

these freaks need to take their hands off my hobbits

Something funny about the fact that AI can create something that adult swim would produce while trying to emulate an incredibly broad and bland sitcom

The in text citations would have been even crazier. After any claim I would have had to include:

(?, ?, & Boy. 2021)

Can't imagine the professor would think it a reputable source!

Very glad @fleerultra.bsky.social , @notalawyer.bsky.social, and @aywarhiannon.bsky.social are all publicly known now as citing @fivefourpod.bsky.social in this paper a few years ago would have read

?, M., ?, R., Boy, T.L. (January 19, 2021) The Rise and fall of Roe v Wade. [Audio Podcast] etc.

So much of "cancel culture" discourse is a re-description of the normal functioning of a democracy and public discourse by people who didn't like the results of one, or both, or how it made them feel.

A friend of mine in Chicago just shared a video on IG of an ICE operation near her house. The operation happened just minutes before the neighborhood Halloween parade. ICE used tear gas and multiple parents had to wash their kids' (including toddlers) eyes out.

It's hard to overstate how fully engaged Chicago and the surrounding suburbs are in this ICE madness. There are neighborhood watch alerts, spontaneous crowds gathering outside schools at pick up & drop off plus madly blowing whistles and honking car horns, this city is fighting back and hard.

Probably fumbled several potential romances behaving like this! Gatekeeping is dumb as hell!

Truly. I'm also a big sports guy (I contain multitudes) and in my youth whenever a young woman expressed interest in a sport I would do the whole

"Oh you like baseball? Who plays backup catcher for the Brewers?" Thing and I very quickly realized how fucking dumb that was

Personally I like that my spouse enjoys science fiction. But you do you sad virgins. Keep it up. Surely you will eventually annoy someone into loving you

It remains so strange to me the way nerds behave about women in "their" spaces.

Setting aside that women were and are a huge part of the Trek Fandom (and were central in creating what it became), shouldn't you want women who share your interests?

These people are so beyond fucked in the head

I don’t know if there’s a more perfect illustration of the utter fucking nonsense that creative pollution by AI will produce than this choice to illustrate the power of Paramount’s new “localization” and “customization” technology by face-swapping Brad Pitt into the lead role of GET OUT

this is actually a solid case study in why ‘just go into the trades’ is a bunch of foolishness: if you don’t know how to think or organize your thoughts or god forbid memorize then you’ll be just as much of a failure in jobs that don’t require a college degree as you will in jobs that do

It’s hard to convey just how much Chicagoans are mobilizing against ICE. Don’t want to downplay the harm, or make it seem like a fair fight. But in neighborhoods across this city, ICE is getting chased by people blowing whistles and shouting. People are running TOWARD ICE to protect their neighbors.

If you got a tattoo that you didn't realize was a Nazi tattoo, I can maybe** understand that (although the fact that you were in social situations wherein you could get that by accident is....sus)

However not getting it removed/covered the moment you learn that is without question disqualifying

The whole point of democracy is so one person's derangement does not become everybody's problem. It's social hygiene. The fact the richest men in the West are a mix of grotty twelve year olds and deranged apocalypse fanatics is a problem, and we should be honest about it.

There are several cities where I think this concept would legitimately do numbers. It would still be dominated by weird straight guy customers but there would be a much stronger contingent of women/queer customers than at any hooters

Assuming voters will just all go to the candidate that most "matches" the candidate they previously supported is always a dead giveaway that someone has never actually worked or volunteered for a campaign.

Voters are weird and eclectic and illogical. You can't just assume they move to the next guy

This fallacy gets repeated a lot. There are some very close races where it can matter but often the results would be weirder than you would expect!

This is one of those things where you can always tell who has never actually worked or volunteered for a campaign

Voters do not just shift their support to the candidate you think most aligns with them. Voters are eclectic

Some Sliwa voters would to Cuomo, some Mamdani, many wouldn't show at all

You may disagree with some of Trump’s policies (pointless military invasion of your exurbs, no healthcare, routine savage beatings) but at least his peace deals keep falling apart immediately

immigrant grocery store owner who voted for Trump to lower grocery prices and then got wrecked by tariffs. mfer you run a business called "Wong Kai Imports" what the hell did you think was gonna happen

Guys, simply block the government on here and they’ll go away. It’s a government of posters and they’re looking for fodder, just treat them like the trolls that they are.

Has he paid his child support recently???? Or is he still avoiding that

An ICE agent, who is being arrested for drunk driving and nearly killing his little kids & others, tries to stop the arrest by racially profiling the officers arresting him. Amazing to watch the courtesy given to him as he is belligerent and uncooperative
