The best time to get rid of him was when he did the Nazi salute.
The second best time was when he butchered federal agencies that led to the death of hundreds of thousands.
The third best time was yesterday.

Donald Trump publicly calls for the execution of Democratic congressmen, and Republicans don’t bat an eye. But as soon as you make a joke about Charlie Kirk’s views, all hell breaks loose.

I don't know why the "Piggy" thing is bothering me so much. It's one more unforgivable thing in a list of 20,000 unforgivable things, but I've been mad about it for like 12 straight hours.

Larry Summers tells @theharvardcrimson.bsky.social
he’s stepping back from all public commitments in light of his messages with Epstein, saying he is “deeply ashamed” and hopes “to rebuild trust and repair relationships.”
He will continue teaching.

I wish men truly understood how often their peers only pretend to cultivate women's talents because they want to fuck us. I am a short Canadian nobody and it happened to me when I was starting out my screenwriting career no less than four times before I turned 26

Women's problem is not meeting the same standards as men. We do that every day, and often exceed expectations.
But if you're expected to fuck Larry Summers to get ahead, it's no surprise that women might fall behind men, who are not expected to do this.

Those of us who are SA survivors are used to the mass shrug in response to even the most overt evidence of horrific behavior. Epstein's crimes and the complicity of many influential figures involved have been known for decades (’05 to be exact). It's never mustered much interest or consequence.

Huge Bond fan - they have made 25 movies across 60 years and six actors that have played Bond. EON was always looking to make a current movie and really until Skyfall/SPECTRE/NTTD no one gave a second thought to continuity.

James Bond’s death in No Time to Die is causing a nightmare for the next film. Writers are stuck because Bond “was blown to pieces.”

Europeans recognize Zohran Mamdani’s supposedly radical policies as ‘normal’
Critics of New York City’s mayor-elect have said his pledges of free bus service and universal childcare are unrealistic, but in Europe it’s a given

Only 18% of Africans are in formal employment. The wealthiest evade most taxes, particularly on property ownership and capital gains, because states underinvest in property and company registries. Our states want taxes but don’t care to create formal jobs or invest in robust infrastructure.

Drained, disregarded, and discarded – we are not the tax base African governments dream of.

There needs to be trials and there needs to be people sent to die in a prison cell. Consequences must fall on the people who issued the orders and those who carried them out. We must make the punishment of these people a national spectacle that will be remembered for generations.

This is literally what Kamala Harris ran on last year. She provided substantive policies related to all of these issues. Folks need to admit that they had trouble hearing this message when the messenger was a Black woman.
Elizabeth Warren, who endorsed Mamdani fairly early, says he has a lesson for Democrats: “that Americans care about what living costs them every day. Zohran put together an entire campaign around bringing down the cost of child care, groceries and transportation, and he's going to win on that.”
