It's going to be so amazing being alive in 2026 because the front page will say "BREAKING Mamdani Received Free Cheese Pizza From a Local Vendor, Calls to Resign Mount" and then on page 3 you'll see "Hegseth's Pentagon Rape Dungeon Raises Legal Questions."

A few years ago I was looking at a Facebook Memory post of my cat demanding attention while said cat was again demanding attention. So I took a picture of him next to his picture. That picture came up today and guess who was demanding attention?

The DNC has been relying on "the other guy is worse so you peasants better vote for whoever we give you and be grateful" method for decades and it's driving this behavior.

There is a full-on push in NYC right now to use "Mamdani doesn't make Jews 'feel safe'" as a cudgel to get Cuomo into office, and it is utterly disgusting. You know what makes me feel unsafe? People who casually characterize us as a trembling single-issue monolith scared of the big bad Muslim.

ppl forgot the original context of "no purity tests" - campaigns for ppl to sit out GENERAL elections bc the D candidate wasn't pure enough, thus electing the worse R. This PRIMARY IS THE EXACT TIME FOR PURITY TESTING. It's when you decide what kind of candidate you want to run. All issues are on.

Yes. I now use clothespins to clip the outgoing mail to the outside of the mailbox, which has mostly resolved this issue for me. Although one time someone took the clothespin?

Ahhhh I'm finally watching Thunderbolts* and they did a fastball special!

FeralEquestrian @feralequestrian.bsky.social · 11d

I would have seen Thunderbolts* in the theater, possibly more than once, if I'd realized they were
doing good MCU movies again. People told me it was great and they were right.

Batman: The Animated Series was just too good. I'm watching the episode that introduces Poison Ivy, who is dining with Harvey Dent. He gets a salad and she orders SNAILS.

I am finding two ways of thinking about this in South Africa

1. USAID cuts immediately closed SA trans clinics, and trans ppl, cut off from gender affirming care, have since died by suicide

2. USAID cuts have cut HIV/AIDS medication access, which takes months or years to manifest in deaths

The Associated Press @apnews.com · 22d

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio insisted “no one has died” as a result of U.S. foreign aid cuts. In Myanmar, the grieving father of a 2-year-old boy who died after their food rations were cut calls such claims a lie.

Starving children screaming for food as US aid cuts unleash devastation and death across Myanmar

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio has repeatedly said “no one has died" because of his government’s decision to gut its foreign aid program.

Hell, I used to have a home darkroom setup so I could develop film and make prints shot with my trusty Pentax K1000, Charlie.

“Fascism” isn’t a slur for politics we don’t like. It’s a precise word with precise meaning. And in the face of what’s happening right now in America, it’s the most honest one we have.

I’ll lay it out as plainly as I can. 🧵

This is how you all sound <3

Panel 1: Title: How guitarists sound to everyone else: a man with glasses is holding a guitar. he says "You guys! I just picked up a vintage caveman painter with a desprunklifier!"
Panel 2: The man is now holding up a pedal board and says "You don't even KNOW how excited I am to plug this into the schnozzler vine to get extra bonkle!"
Panel 3: The man is holding his forehead and holding an amplifier. More amps can be seen behind him. He says "Oh MAN do I hook this up to the shrong quanitfier or the joop-enabler for less fwampa?"
Panel 4: The mans silhouette can be seen over the two other band members who are holding each other in the corner clearly very scared of their guitarist. The guitarist says "Oh! I'll Loop them together to create an infinite scrongle loop!"

SCOOP — Part of the reason Disney/ABC may have rushed to sort things out with Kimmel is because tomorrow they have a planned price increase for Disney+ streaming, a Disney source tells me. With subscriptions hemorrhaging since last week, they couldn’t risk losing more users with this announcement.

The shirt on the left has been my favorite since I thrifted it a couple years ago. Found out it was made in another color and also that it's from 2014. Tracked the other one down. Now I have two favorite shirts and also a new ship.

Two flannel shirts hang side by side on a door. One is red and gray plaid with gray elbow patches and the other is tan and brown plaid with brown elbow patches. The arms nearest each other are turned to show the elbow patches. It looks like they are playfully bumping elbows.

If you leave an inch or so of green onion attached to the roots you can stick it in a pot, give it a bit of water, and regrow it for another couple rounds of fresh scallions! I love doing this because 1) fresh scallions 2) spurious-but-enjoyable feeling of self-sufficiency.

What the fuck are you even asking people to support if every position is negotiable and every line is movable?

'Vote for us, we'd like to be in office?'

Amongst the many, many other faults and follies of the party, perhaps the single most dangerous problem with the Democratic Party today is their incessant habit of reinforcing the idea that there is absolutely *no* principle that matters, no policy that is sacrosanct that they will stand behind.

The idea of running anti-abortion Democrats is sickening to me. That means killing women! That is what that means!

No one should get violent threats. But if you’re gonna change your vote because of it, you should resign. I’Ve been getting violent threats all week and not only do I have no intention of shutting up, I think it’s evidence that we need to say it louder

Atrios @eschatonblog.com · Sep 20

Dems advertising that they are capitulating to threats of violence is not an especially smart plan even on narrow selfpreservation concerns

They just tear-gassed us. They tried to run us over in a van holding a peaceful protester. They shot us with pepper balls. They dragged another protester into the facility.

moments ago, ice agents again came out of the broadview detention/“professing” facility to escort a silver suv out of the lot.

one of the agents picked up and threw congressional candidate kat abughazaleh to the ground.
