I’ve seen enough: primary every Democrat to the right of Mamdani
Early returns in Louisiana’s special election:

The Dem candidate is leading 58.5% to 41.5%. That’s with a third of the vote in.

Context: this is a Dem-held seat but in a district TRUMP carried by 13%, so has been a big/obvious GOP target. Stay tuned.

Was at a movie-watching hangout yesterday and a friend opined that cashews were “the worst nut”. And look, she is entitled to her opinion, like everyone, but I have never seen an entire room turn on someone so fast.

If you're a business owner who fires someone you have assigned to an overseas job and you don't buy them a plane ticket home you should actually go to prison
Former Washington Post journalists have launched a GoFundMe to help repatriate fired staff members who are effectively stranded in foreign countries.

One of the richest men in the world fired them from the paper and didn’t even pay to ensure they got home.

historically, that did in fact happen when the concept of handwashing before delivering babies was developed, and a lot of very offended male doctors killed a lot of women and infants as a result.

self-important wealthy men become offended when someone tells them to follow procedure, constantly.
I don't know if non-lawyers understand how insane this statement is. I honestly can't think of anything remotely comparable in non-lawyer speak. I guess the closest would be a surgeon saying "Imagine if I had to wash my HANDS before doing surgery!"
Mike Johnson speaks out against the use of judicial warrants in immigration cases:

"Imagine if we had to go through the process of getting a judicial warrant"

Getting to work with this project was definitely one of the highlights of my career so far. Really glad I got to know Tony and Abby back when I was trading marketing tips with them in my Beacon Pines days.
Thrilled to announce that Slay the Princess has officially surpassed one million units sold!

When we started work on it, we couldn't imagine a visual novel would be able to hit such a milestone let alone being backed by critical acclaim. And yet, here we are. We couldn't have done this without you.

Seriously, if you've ever considered running for office, now's the time. Go check out @runforsomething.net. This is looking like a 25+ point swing in TEXAS -- nearly doubling the average +13 swing we've been seeing.

Don't leave any seat unchallenged. Make the GOP spend all their resources.
JUST IN: Democrats flip a red seat in the Texas Senate.

Taylor Rehmet wins against Leigh Wambsganss, a conservative activist who helped lead right-wing efforts to take over TX school boards.

With all early vote, and 95% of precincts, in, Dem up 57/43.

Trump won this seat by 17% in Tarrant County.

Friendly reminder that none of us can be truly free if any of us is not free; if any of us is threatened.

This is solidarity. Saw lots solidarity yesterday with the trans community, Palestine, POC, Indigenous people, feminism, people with disabilities, the labor movement, Latin America, youth

Wild take. Morrowind is one of the best open worlds of all time in video games. The gameplay is dated, but the world feels alive and content-rich. And I love how little direction you’re given to start. No big set piece, just “go to Balmora maybe.” How do you get to Balmora? Fuck you, that’s how.

There is something deeply broken in this country when the Department of Justice is arresting journalists but letting pedophiles run free.

Do not fall for calls to "hold ice accountable" that don't include a call to abolish it completely. DO NOT.

This is a wild time to unite behind funding Ice.
SCHUMER says Democrats are “united” behind three DHS reforms

1/ End roving patrols; tighten the rules on warrants and require ICE to coordinate with local authorities.

2/ Enforce accountability; a uniform code of conduct.

3/ Require masks off, body cameras on, agents carry ID.

I’ve said before I think that anyone doing marketing should try keeping a garden.

Along the same lines: producers or project managers should cook. Not just dishes - a meal, ideally with at least three different things that need to be ready at the same time.

Des Moines, Iowa - heads up. I’m sharing this from a friend of a friend.

I know they’ve already been out there door knocking and trying to find more info about “specific households” as they tried questioning one of my [white] friends the other day. Just stay vigilant. Stay safe.
