William Hurt asking “how do you fuck that up?”

The amount of hedging you have to do to be on the left and try to talk to your peers, your parents, your coworkers - your boss!! - about things you think are straightforwardly moral yes or no questions is monumental

Every day, as a leftist on Long Island, I bite my tongue. Around the people who make my children's prescriptions. Around the people who control whether I can continue to live in my apartment. Around my employers. That's where free speech is contested and conservatives like it that way. They're liars

Nice to meet you tonight and yes please to the indoor playground!!!

She’s been at the Howe neighborhood restaurant I work at for lunch so much I think she might try to put it as her address

I hope people understand that the anomaly here aren’t the conditions—the conditions are very typical—the anomaly is that they put a number of documented workers from a high-income country in those conditions. This is how people are treated in custody routinely

It’s really this simple

So much of local business and restaurant journalism is an embarrassment.

Not to interrupt production at the takes factory but they should probably identify and catch the actual killer before we decide what it all means.

Information environment has reached its grotesque conclusion in that there is a very real killer out there who has not been identified, apprehended, or investigated, a detail practically inconsequential to nearly every commentator’s purposes.

This is a crazy thing to write and think about a person who made a media career out of being a grotesque troll.

National Dems send endless emails begging for money but almost never organize people for real action.

Mamdani is now doing the opposite. Telling supporters to close their checkbooks and put on their walking shoes to go talk to their neighbors.

I think I’ve rewatched things more and more these days as a form of self soothing

Certainly doesn’t hurt my theory that there’s a bipartisan belief that the George Floyd protests were the worst things that ever happened and we haven’t been punished enough for them

An old friend is the co-owner there. Great people.

Seems kinda important imo

And then said this: “it would be against the values of this campaign to try to overturn a decision made through democratic processes, simply because the outcome wasn’t favorable for us”

That is a weird paraphrase of his statement afterward

I think he’s talking about the stated position of Davis about the convention

The Mothership Vortex: An Investigation Into the Firm at the Heart of the Democratic Spam Machine How a single consulting firm extracted $282 million from a network of spam PACs while delivering just $11 million to actual campaigns.

The annoying spam texts destroying the Democratic brand:

$678M raised through those spam tactics

$282M to one consulting firm: Mothership Strategies.

$11M to actual campaigns (1.6%)

The party isn’t just treating donors like marks—it’s being fleeced itself yet continues to back Mothership.

Firing and demoralizing feminized jobs as enemies of the state while brazenly bribing men with violent jobs that almost instantly puts them into the middle of middle class is very basic gendered warfare. Fulfilling the manosphere’s promise.

Bicycle Serial Number Database Update

The City of Minneapolis will be discontinuing the use of its own bicycle serial number registry in favor of Bike Index, the largest publicly available national non-profit alternative.

Everyone who previously registered with the City should re-register today: content.govdelivery.com/accounts/MPL...

This has been my 50 state strategy!! Please someone dooo itttt

As someone who came here as an immigrant, I can’t tell you how jarring it is to see this anti immigration narrative flooding our politics every single day, people will say they don’t mean you, it doesn’t matter, it’s disgusting

When you’re writing immortal myths

Feels like a lot of media hires rn are an experiment in asking the question: “are there enough of this specific kind of degenerate to monetize it?”

Hell yeah

Gotta keep that gout somewhere
