The value of reading history is you know that in 1860 there were abolitionists who were so demoralized that they thought chattel slavery would be permanent. 5 years later those still alive had lived to see its end.

one bright spot I'm so proud of my play cousin for the volunteer program she just started. she took in a lot of advice and was able to make some great choices to set things up for success.

there's a potentially huge thing happening with my work and I cannot take this one more thing with massive ramifications that I can't actually do anything about 😩

my friend's husband forgot her birthday. they have been married for 6 years and known each other for 10.

This is also why setting up a recurring donation is so valuable, if you can swing it. Knowing that they'll get even $5 consistently each month REALLY increases how much food they can provide.

I found a receipt (of course) and an unopened lip balm.

I mean obviously he has no shame but come on!

got my flu and covid shots yesterday. I don't like combining them but went for it for reasons. just need to figure out how to drink water while asleep.

If you aren't seeing skeets from some of your fave people, they might have been labeled "Rude" by bsky mods. Idk what they are thinking, I don't need a mommy to tell me who to be buddies with. Anyway, go into Settings > moderation > bluesky moderation (advanced) and turn Rude off.

There are still a lot of hard times ahead, but remember this moment and what it means: We can win.

Democrats Retain Control of Pennsylvania's Supreme Court with Three-Seat Sweep - Bolts Three Democratic justices on the Pennsylvania Supreme Court have defeated an unusually high-profile Republican bid to unseat them. They secured large statewide victories on Tuesday, following an histo...

JUST IN: Democrats have swept the 3 supreme court elections in Pennsylvania.

They beat back a concerted GOP effort to erase their majority; instead, they'll keep a 5-2 edge on this very important court.

Mayor Mamdani. A photo of Zohran smiling. Zohran wins

26 billionaires spent over $22 million to beat Zohran Mamdani.

Why? Because regular people came together around an agenda that prioritized making life easier for more people. It beat big money.

That is how we win.

not one inch. we trot together.

has anyone heard from chuck schumer? how upset are the baileys tonight?

There are so many people who've had a hand in this historic moment, but one person I'm so grateful for is @lindseyboylan.bsky.social. Your courage and your conviction opened a door for so many people and so many futures, and this is one amazing reality you had such a vital role in making possible.

I'm happy that Mamdani won. But I won't let that get in the way of my celebrating Cuomo losing.

What we know so far, 9:30pm

—Dems flip VA-Gov & VA-LG.
—BIG Dem gains in VA House
—Dems win NJ-Gov
—Mamdani up
—Dems seem to flip 2 statewide offices in GA
—JD Vance's half-brother loses in Cincy.
—Dems sweep Orlando council
—PA: Dem justices up big
—Maine anti-mail vote measure down
—Krasner wins

Now comes the even harder work. But for tonight, let's celebrate.

the good news keeps on coming!

All the worst people in the suburbs keep swearing Philly hates Krasner but he keeps winning.

Never beating the allegations.

The country has spoken. Get ready to drink some soy milk and hire minorities.

Two of the most significant politics editors in Teen Vogue’s history were working class trans people from Ohio and Philly, and their tireless, fearless work is a huge part of why so many people are mourning its demise now. @satansjacuzzi.bsky.social and @leximcmenamin.com you will always be famous

as a resident of a city with a trash mayor my natural inclination is certainly to hate from outside the club but I can't. not just because I think Mamdani is the best choice for NYC. and is scaring centrist dems. all the worse people hate him.

I want to see them cry.

i hope this is how you find out about dick cheney

honor dick cheney’s memory by shooting someone in the face and making them apologize for it

You cannot survive in times like this treating joy like a luxury you can’t afford. You will shatter. You will also make yourselves insufferable to be around and it’s impossible to build community that way.

migraines are getting very frequent but can't get an appointment with my doctor until February. how much of my brain can I scoop out and survive?
