He stood next to Trump and said yeah trump is a fascist
The funny thing about this meeting is that Mamdani didn't back down on a single policy point or anything he's said about Trump.

me: a guy here was arrested for assaulting a woman while he was cosplaying as a nazi officer
Dad: what is cosplay
me: *explains*
Dad: sounds like a nazi who stopped "cosplaying" as a normal person
This man's ability to randomly say insightful thing while also putting cosplay in quotes is a trip

Thinking about delayed/uncertain gratification as a cognitive load problem instead of a general maturity problem explains a lot actually and it is also depressing as a guy who really wants people to put in the effort to pick insurance.
Inflation is also one of those things that has no apparent upside to most people. Oh sure, the sufficiently econ-brained among us know that our raises are in part due to inflation and it has a nice effect on the real cost of our loans. But most people don't know that or more importantly feel it.
Inflation uniquely taps into the psychic struggles of the Trump-susceptible (as you say, “relearning what’s what”).

I know it's a fool's errand to expect anything from the media but "President posts video of himself dumping diarrhea on America" is an important thing to call attention to for a dozen reasons

Corporate media is missing the point about Portland’s Mr. Frog. They are covering him and his menagerie as a humorous side show. In reality Mr Frog has seized the visual narrative by pointing out the absurdity of troops in Portland. In our visual media world. Mr Frog is winning the war. #ProudBlue

Having now read the Administration's proposed compact with universities, I have two thoughts:
This is not the sort of system set up by an administration that ever expects a different party to be in power again.
It is a "fuck you, make me" moment for universities.

As a Baltimore resident, anything that can let people understand just how evil Fox45 actually is, that's an unalloyed good thing.
I don’t think the average viewer of ABC shows really understands that there’s a Sinclair that decides what they can watch, and it’s in Sinclair’s interest for it to stay that way.

Electricity costs are going to be the biggest topic of the 2026 election I think. There’s going to be a big push to get democrats to complain about big utilities price gouging even though they’re largely regulated and we need them to build a ton. I’m begging just blame Trump please.

He has kept among us in times of peace Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures. He has affected to render the Military independent of and superior to the Civil power. He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution & unacknowledged by our laws.

Second-best ship-naming skeet about WWII of all time; the USS We Built This Yesterday (next post) remains undefeated.
As I said on Twitter, back in the day, WW1 / WW2 is just an endless list of German battleships called something like the "Admiral Ripper von Murderboat" getting the shit kicked out of it by HMS Sunflower.
