I have terrible, terrible news for red America SFGATE columnist Drew Magary unpacks the 2025 elections.

SFGATE columnist @drewmagary.bsky.social dug deep into Tuesday night’s election results and came to an astounding conclusion: Woke won.

Zohran Mamdani’s Win Is Proof We Don’t Have to Settle for Newsom 2028 The Bushwick bisexuals have it! We can ask for so much more, and at COYOTE we plan to.

Zohran’s win offers the Bay Area a glimpse at a better future β€” one where we’re not locked in a room with Gavin Newsom for another four years.

I'm hearing that Andrew Cuomo and Dave Portnoy are going to share a one-bedroom, one-bath condo in Pensacola until they "figure something long-term out" and that they're considering splitting the cost of a porta potty in the parking lot for when they both have diarrhea at the same time (5-7x weekly)

At this point, anyoneβ€”a university, a law firm, a corporation, a Democratβ€”bending the knee to Trump is doing it because they want to, not because of any political reality.

He's no Marvin Larry Benard, but even as a Giants fan I'm happy he got to change the narrative. Now go Jays.

Philip Larkin’s this be the verse mangled into Ozymandias, the text reads 

They Oz you up, your mandyias.
They may not mean to, but they do.
They give you vast and trunkless legs
A sunken shattered visage too.
But they were Ozzed up in their turn
By Mandyias upon the sand
Who half the time had wrinkled lips And half in sneering cold command.
Oz hands on mandyias to man.
Like mighty works atop a shelf Look on them early as you can
Ye mighty and despair yourself

California – this Election Day, vote yes on Prop 50.

California’s Prop 50 says that if Republicans are going to abuse the system to try and hang onto power, we’re going to counteract that abuse and create a level playing field in the midterm elections.

Make a plan to vote yes on Prop 50.

It’s been so long since the Blue Jays won the World Series that the last time it happened the President was born in 1946 and had ties to Jeffrey Epstein.

Yeah. I agree with at least 80% of his overarching take on AI, but his denial that it has any utility at all just distracts from the other very valid points he makes. The other issue is that there are like 4 main points that he keeps recapitulating to the tune of a million words per screed.

I've built a socioeconomic system that depends on everyone to do useful work and act ethically except the people at the top, who get unimaginable rewards for being antisocial frauds and criminals. And I think it will stand the test of time

Merle Haggard in a Fred Lewis-era bucket Giants hat and an "I ❀️ Haters shirt.

The first two verses of Merle Haggard's song, "The Immigrant," which begins: 

American ranching consists of a mansion
Where illegal immigrants do much of the labor by hand
Theyβ€…sneakβ€…'em through customsβ€…till time comes to bust 'em
Thenβ€…haul 'em back over the border to their own native land

With a ragged sombrero and not much dinero
They'll be back again when the ole Rio Grande's down low
Border patroller, don't stop a stroller
'Cause the Mexican immigrant is helping America grow

Every so often, it feels good to post Merle Haggard in a Fred Lewis-era bucket hat and remember some of his most patriotic lyrics.
