NANCY SAYS GOOD NIGHT TO HER PET TURTLE OTTO

GOOD NIGHT,
OTTO

this was for a colorado measure guaranteeing universal free lunch for kids. funny how a short two-column table can say so much in so little space.

i hope to see enterprising democrats announce their intent to retire schumer and gillibrand over the next two years.

congratulations to cuomo's 13 (probably more) survivors on getting to watch this man get humiliated so thoroughly in front of the entire world yet again

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

this is a reminder that we dont have to settle for newsom in 2028

Inbox— next cover of the New Yorker: “Mayor Mamdani,” by Edel Rodriguez

1. There are three very important constraints on tonight's Mamdani victory you have to keep in mind when we're looking at what he's going to be able to do in office (taking him in good faith as someone who wants to make life better for people and discounting Trump).

Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

The crowd has gone silent at Cuomo's party.

roses are red
big laughs are hearty

Zohran Mamdani has won, & will be the next mayor of NYC.

i hope this election cycle empowers everyone the next time a centrist liberal says to drop pro-trans and pro-immigrant rhetoric to enthusiastically tell them to shut the fuck up

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

BREAKING: Zohran Mamdani wins the New York City mayoral race, NBC News projects. nbcnews.to/4nIzNUC

the lesson of zohran mamdani walloping one of the most racist campaigns in modern us history on the largest turnout since 1969 is that democrats need to move to the right

the first muslim woman being elected to statewide office (in any state!) the day dick cheney died is beautiful

if Mamdani beats Cuomo he's going to create what some are calling Pervert Removal Synergy

This is the entire reason that Portland scrapped it's prior form of government. Councilors enacting their own personal preferences within bureaus and Ted's state of emergency shadow gov playing hard offense for the Business Alliance. Who wants to go back to that? Developers and their fee waivers.

anakin skywalker from episode 2 looking sad

i could smell the mustard and the onions

worth remembering that in 2021 schumer called for cuomo to resign in the wake of a series of sexual harassment allegations. & now he won't even endorse his own party's candidate over him lol

Sam Corcos, who entered government with DOGE earlier this year, decided to kill DirectFile after one meeting with with tax software lobbyists.

Ryuji saying none of these posts are any good

I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day.

certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

Election Day during the longest government shutdown in history, where the president is posting about using critical food aid as a cudgel against his political enemies

DON'T EVER TELL ME I DON'T HAVE MY FINGER ON THE MOTHER FUCKING PULSE RUN ME MY CHECK

War Criminal Dick Cheney Dead at 84, With Blood of Millions on His Hands Cheney’s legacy more than outlives him; he reshaped the very structures of war and authoritarianism at home and abroad.

Former vice president Dick Cheney has died, at 84, with the blood of millions on his hands. His legacy will far outlive him as the man responsible for wars that have killed and displaced millions abroad; and who worked diligently to lay the groundwork for fascist authoritarianism in the U.S.

Amazing. The man isn't even mayor yet but he's already solving our trash problems.

fun fact: Portnoy already claims permanent residence in Florida to avoid paying NY City and State income taxes

I don't like this framing at all. It's not on him as "an individual" but rather on whether NYers can build enough power to make it painful for Albany if they refuse to deliver.
