BlueSky, especially mutuals: it's been fun to be back the last few days, but I'm going to try to take another approximately month-long break. I really was less anxious & slept better during the last one. Have fun, be careful, & link to my editing services is in bio. 😍

Republicans in Disarray
This is incredibly important:
we must frame tonight as a resounding victory — an electoral landslide, a mandate from the universe itself
and as a repudiation of MAGA, of Trump, and of vichy democrats
we must be relentless, we must not shut up

i hope to see enterprising democrats announce their intent to retire schumer and gillibrand over the next two years.
Q: It's election day in NYC. Did you vote for Mamdani or Cuomo?
Schumer: "Look, I voted, and I look forward to working with the next mayor to help NYC."

I don’t like everything about Brad Lander and his positions, but I fucking love this shirt.
Brad Lander is at the victory party and, folks, he has the custom one-of-one “GOOD FUCKING RIDDANCE” shirt.

Farewell, you incompetent freak.
One last sail around the shore
Eric Adams is amazing because when he won every media person was leaping over each to go “this is the normal sane leadership that the political left doesn’t understand normal sane Americans crave” and then every day since that Eric Adams has been like “Leprechauns are real and I’m going to cook one”

And they said there was no way to convince Gen Z to have more kids.

Zohran has already gotten 250k more votes than Eric Adams did 4 years ago when he was hailed as the future of the Democratic Party.

Ok, I am back for one night because this would be so much less fun without all of you guys. Though Cuomo’s career over + proof that 100 billionaires don’t own the city is also a fair amount of fun tbh.

This article is so dumb b/c its thesis is that Democrats who ran in districts Trump won and Republicans who ran in districts Harris won were successful by moving to the center. Duh! But that's only a few House candidates! They never concede that a Dem in a safe district can run on a lefty platform.

Read this thread.
This is why the Dems' "white men" panic bothers me so much. Instead of listening to the people who have multigenerational experience with the worst aspects of Trump II's America, it turns the defense mechanism born from that experience (stay woke) into a pejorative.
Blacks and Jews have always been safer in America when they worked together and watched each other's backs.
They may be on the lookout for different clues, but more often than not they have their eye on the same people.
Like having a smoke alarm and a carbon monoxide detector in your kitchen.

This is a slap in the face to Virginia's cattlemen. Trump's reckless tariffs have already hurt our agriculture industry. These dollars should be supporting American farmers — not buying Argentina’s beef.

I keep seeing Dems blamed for this guy's candidacy and I just want to point out that less than a week ago the complaint was that Dems weren't backing him. This is a case study in how easy it is to manipulate recent history.
“Betcha not a single downvoter is a real combat vet. Feel free to back it up with facts, fags,” Graham Platner wrote on a 2018 Reddit thread. There are half a dozen more antigay comments attributable to him.

If my computer had a "what an asshole!" key, I would have worn it out in posting about Cuomo this election cycle.
Cuomo has went all in on the anti Arab and anti Muslim rhetoric and decided to laugh along to a "Mamdani would support 9/11" joke.

That’s where they’re working to upend policies proven to protect us, from vaccines to food safety.
