I’m too tired from marching/parenting/being amazing to go into detail, but the reason JD Vance can’t use the 25th amendment is because his enemies in the cabinet are puppeting Trump like Grima Wormtongue and don’t want to give that power up.

No Kings isn’t going to change the world.

But it is where can meet the people you’ll work with to win back your city council. Your school board. Your state legislature. Your do-nothing geriatric congressional seat.

Going back to at least 2023, there have been quite a few times where @adamconover.net and I have been the two loudly-skeptical guys in the room when AI comes up.

And as trillions in debt cycle through a digital ouroboros and the tech still can't do anything other than badly copy... we right.

To answer a question in this @thr.com article:

Yes, they could have, back in 2023 when the WGA and SAG came to them and said "you should work with us to force AI companies to delete stolen content from their training libraries."

They said no. There was actually a whole strike about it!

This is why I simply do not believe Concerned Centrists who blame election losses on the left’s rhetoric.

She’s jumping off the top rope with the confidence of someone who knows zero people on her side (or in the media) are going to push back. And she’s right.

Mamdani: "I just want to speak directly to the president. I will not be a mayor like Mayor Adams who will call you to stay out of jail. I won't be a disgraced governor like Andrew Cuomo who will call you to ask how to win this election. I can do those things on my own."

Cool video podcast you got there, shame if someone just listened to the audio while performing daily tasks.

An RJ unit, also known as an RJ series, was a type of droid. RJ-83 was one RJ unit that accompanied the human pilot Nash Durango during the High Republic Era. In 34 ABY, the Tallimarian scavenger Velorie Sarcon, who resided on the planet Jakku, had an RJ series droid named RJ-21.

I have watched USMNT football my entire life and it’s truly impressive how, across decades, they have maintained the playing style of “keep passing backwards until you hit your keeper.”

I got called for this poll! It was very exciting for me and very annoying for my kids who had to listen to me shout responses into the phone in the middle of the park!

New Quinnipiac poll of New York City:

Mamdani 46%
Cuomo 33%
Sliwa 15%

(A month ago, it was Mamdani 45%, Cuomo 23%, Sliwa 15%, Adams 12%.)

One obstacle to Cuomo rising much higher: Mamdani's favorability rating is 43/35, but Cuomo's is 37/52.
