Shawshank redemption has the weirdest cultural position of any movie. If you think it’s a bad movie you probably don’t like good movies. If it’s your favorite movie of all time you probably don’t like good movies. If you like good movies you have probably never thought about it for more than 5 mins

“what’s the point of standards?” asks a woman who tripped ass-backward into a huge job for which she is breathtakingly unqualified
“I’ve been hearing that standards will be eliminated or severely cut back. Bari has told people that she wants to get rid of standards and is shocked that they have so much power. She also asked openly, ‘What’s the point of standards?’” one CBS source said.

Holy ass he said it out loud. They can't make us feed hungry people. This is insane. Like insane right? This is our tax money earmarked for SNAP and he's like no it's mine now, check out the ballroom.
Q: A federal judge ruled that the administration has to fully fund SNAP. DOJ said they're gonna appeal. What's your message to folks as we're headed to Thanksgiving?

True justice would be if Klein, Yglesias, the Pod Bros, and all of the white dude pundits would take a 4 year sabbatical from commenting on politics.

There's a civics crisis in America which lies beneath so much of our problems.
What happens when you distill 2025 into a single social media post?

This.

...and less than 24 hours later Condé Nast has fired Lex and the rest of the Teen Vogue political desk, even as stories like this were bringing huge numbers of readers to the site
dissatisfied by the New York Times coverage of Zohran Mamdani?

great news! I talked to the guy Thursday about his campaign’s success at bringing community together beyond this election, and contextualized how it’s potentially shifted youth engagement with politics by simply listening @teenvogue.com
Zohran Mamdani's Establishment-Fighting Campaign Built Community for Young People
“What Mamdani has done is not only inspire and mobilize young people, but he has exposed the establishment and some of their calcified views of participation and inclusion.”

shorter answer: “no, dont worry we’re still pretty committed to losing elections”
Hakeem Jeffries says Zohran Mamdani is not the future of the Democratic Party.

God knows how many times this has happened: Zero.

Much like Vance lying about Haitian immigrants eating people's pets, this is 100% racist bullshit being spewed by an unabashed white nationalist.

Congrats to everyone who patronizes the Nazi bar he runs.

yes yes yes to all of this. material politics is the way forward and that doesn’t mean slogans it means the very difficult work of being a real presence in the lives of the people who you want to trust you.
It doesn’t matter what I think. Also, none of this would ever happen. But if I had a zillion dollars:

1. Run a “we do hard things” campaign across southern and rust belt states. Invest heavily in local, state and regional social infrastructure. Sponser later hours at a library, build a skate park…
If I were to sum up my advice to the Democratic party leadership about how to defeat Trumpism, it would be to set aside policy for now and focus instead on articulating a vision of what American society should look like and what role the US should play in a rapidly changing world today.
