Sam's Club is part of Wal-Mart and Wal-Mart workers are among the largest recipients of SNAP in this country. Apparently, some Wal-Marts will help employees fill out SNAP applications as part of their HR paperwork. When people start going hungry on Nov 1 part of the reason is companies underpay them
Is Sam's Club better than Costco?

For a violinist who already shreds, on 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘉𝘗𝘔, Sudan Archives is going even harder on the melodies to keep pace with the drive of the beats. “I'm shredding because I'm trying to be like Jimi Hendrix,” she says.

“cancel someone over old internet posts” girl, he has nazi tattoos. be for real
Establishment Democrats spent a full year complaining the Left forced them to be “woke.”

But then a left populist, Graham Platner, threatened to win in Maine, so they went right back to trying to cancel someone over old internet posts.

The depiction of primarily men of color as criminals here also gives the game away. A white man with a long list of allegations is leveraging racism to try and fearmonger people into supporting him. Reminds me of someone in what’s left of the White House
i can’t wait for cuomo to lose again so we can all stop catching racism strays
Andrew Cuomo’s campaign just posted — and quickly deleted — this AI-generated ad depicting “criminals for Zohran Mamdani.”

Features a Black man in a keffiyeh shoplifting, an abuser, a trespasser, a trafficker, a drug dealer, and a drunk driver all declaring support for Mamdani.

if people of color make up about half of the working class, explain how putting diet nazis and nazi sympathizers in positions of power symbolizes an “authentic working-class party.” quickly.
No I do not support all working class people, some of those assholes are very dumb
a very white confusion to have because no part of me would ever think the young men of a country built via white supremacy culture would have an inherent, assumed hatred for any white supremacist ideology
genuinely why do so many americans have a nazi phase or become genuine nazis. on a fundemental level you’d think that we’d have as much shared hatred for nazism as we do for the british

I sat down with Zohran Mamdani, presumptive winner of NYC's mayoral election and the internet's fave politician, for a @wired.com interview. We covered:

-Big Tech capitulation to Trump
-His tips for finding <3 on Hinge
-The backstory of his social campaign
-Linkin Park, multiple times, vv important
Zohran Mamdani, the Internet’s Mayor
Mere months ago, New York’s mayoral front-runner was polling right next to “Someone Else.” He spoke to WIRED about building a social media machine, Big Tech capitulation, and learning from Eric Adams.

I honestly think it's just that he doesn't talk down to people. His great innovation is to not treat the voters like contemptible idiots he has to deceive.
Zohran Mamdani is a trained performer who has an extremely disciplined and laser-focused ability to recite on-message talking points in response to any question, and yet voters overwhelming praise him as being especially "authentic" compared to other politicians. There's a lesson here!
the hurdles were lying on the ground and Cuomo still didn’t clear a single one
Cuomo…. said Bill Clinton was his favorite modern president. Fascinating.
