I joined the DSA eight years ago

When I joined, we were so small scale that I had to paint banners for marches on bedsheets

In 2022, I commissioned @mollycrabapple.bsky.social to make a portrait of @sfdirewolf.bsky.social, as part of a series for the release of The Viral Underclass. Molly signed if for her. Alice was so excited to have a Molly Crabapple of herself!

In the Williamsburg Hassidic magazine טרייבל they did an exit poll of Satmar voters. One Mamdani voter says

"I truly hope Mamdani wins so that heymish Zionists get a good spanking"
November 13, 2025 at 3:11 PM
Hakeem Jeffries dismissed Mamdani’s team as “Team Gentrifiers,” drawing a line between natives and transplants. “Zohran said ‘no’ to this,” Dandia continued. “The dividing line is not the accident of birth, but the billionaires who profit and the rest of us.” www.thenation.com/article/poli...

'"There is no good way to say this" but to say this: AI is the antithesis of education. It is the antithesis of the future. As such, it is a kind of epistemological death, and I recognize... we have long been surrounded by such efforts; we are grieving already. And yet, we go on.'
