I am truly shocked to not find more thinkpieces on the incredible graphic design and typography of Zohran Mamdani’s campaign but maybe that’s because searching on the internet is garbage now.

TL;DR lead designer was Aneesh Bhoopathy of Forge Co-Op

The irony of Northwestern Mutual relying on pyramid schemes to sell their products when I received the @theguardian.com takedown article in a group chat and then blasted to at least 10 of my personal contacts www.theguardian.com/business/202...
‘Friends end up blocking you’: Northwestern Mutual sold college grads a dream job. They left in ruin and debt
Expecting to be financial advisers at the Fortune 500 firm, some hires say they were ‘gaslit’ into peddling ‘terrible’ life insurance to all their contacts

Friendly reminder that striking workers are asking you not to patronize ANY Starbucks store.

If you're traveling this week, your airport definitely has other options. Zero reason to even think about crossing a picket line!

Twitter accounts are based in Russia. BlueSky accounts are based in homes with, frankly, too many books, plants, obsolete cables, and pieces of rustic pottery, that could do with a bit of a tidying up, to be honest.

wait I just realised

when I write in US English I get pulled up for saying “she went to hospital” because there should be a definite article in there

but they’re fine with “she went to prison”?

A Battle with My Blood
When I was diagnosed with leukemia, my first thought was that this couldn’t be happening to me, to my family.

I think I'm broken because this is so very uncomfortable to me.

Mayor Elect Mamdani looks uncomfortable to the point of disassociation
and if you've ever had this kind of maladaptive personality type deify you .....

the fall out when they get mad at you is WORSE
Not only has he never looked at Don Jr. or Eric like this, he’s never been so happy to bask in JD Vance’s presence either.

He looks giddy. JOYFUL even.

Is Zohran a witch
the son he always wanted

something i'll note is that if nuzzi ran catch-and-kill ops for rfk jr and lizza knew this prior to him being appointed as HHS, and instead of telling anyone, he decided to save it for his substack long after rfk jr had made communicable disease into federal policy, that's completely fucked

Just remembering how one of the most important and widely read and dropped-with-maximally-damaging-timing "Biden is old and senile" pieces was reported by Nuzzi. It makes you think!
well, I read it, and the salient, non-gross part is Lizza alleging, midsentence and without elaboration, that Nuzzi ran numerous “catch-and-kill operations” on RFK’s behalf, which would give her a role in both his appointment and the untold preventable deaths he has abetted in office. Cool.

Catching up on the discourse and I can’t read the “Make America Felch Again” poem without the “Curb Your Enthusiasm” theme song scoring it. Way too early for this shit (pun absolutely intended).

Me: “let me search for more news stories about this sea turtle in Monterey Bay”

Google: “let me show you one search result for that and also retraumatize you by showing you the news story about one of the worst things that ever happened to you and your family. No, it has nothing to do with turtles”

Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani is generously praised by Trump in the Oval Office on the same day Majorie Taylor Greene announces a bizarre resignation from Congress.

One of the weirdest days of this era.
