Pizzagate: If you replace the word “hot dog” with “little boy” and “pizza party” with “child sex orgy,” you will see the lengths these elites go to cover up their crimes.
Real elite emails: Send me nude pictures of those 8th graders we abused last weekend post-haste! I am the Ambassador to Turkey.

Mamdani embodies a pro-Palestinian politics that truly distinguishes between the state of Israel and the Jewish people, and truly takes antisemitism seriously as its own problem. That makes him a threat to those who want to absolutely conflate antisemitism and anti-Zionism, whether the ADL or WoL.
The pro-Palestine group Within Our Lifetime has already decided that Zohran Mamdani has sold out the pro-Palestine cause... by condemning swastikas drawn on a Jewish day school in Brooklyn. forward.com/culture/7822...
Mamdani's first statement on antisemitism as mayor-elect got some weird pushback
After someone spraypainted a swastika on a yeshiva, Zohran Mamdani condemned antisemitism. Somehow, this generated conspiracy theories.

Today in @thenation.com: thrilled to have @gbbranstetter.bsky.social on how this week's elections should bury once and for all the toxic myth that trans people are to blame for the Democratic Party's political failures www.thenation.com/article/poli...
Democrats Can't Blame Trans People for Their Own Failures
Despite the attempts by so many in the party's establishment to paint trans rights as a toxic issue, transphobia was soundly rejected across the country this week.

The public-facing side of American conservative politics more or less amounts to crashing out constantly about a bunch of shit that either you or the weird liars you listen to uncritically have made up. The non-public part, from what we've seen of the chat logs and such, is somehow much worse.

New career path: Telling everyone that I use generative AI for everything (and then just half-assing it with my own brain) so people I don’t respect throw piles of money at me and are cool with the final product being bad.

Y’all I’m so serious everyone has to get out and outvote the racist old farts who are gonna fall for this
So here's Andrew Cuomo reacting to Maria Bartiromo wondering if Mamdani will "change the look of New York" and have Muslim women "completely covered up," telling her that Mamdani "doesn't understand New York culture" because he has "dual citizenship" and "he's a citizen of Uganda."

Playing the best deck this weekend in baltimore, my 75 maps really well to me and hopefully that pays off in what is sure to be a room full of players who feel the same.
Most of my playlists are made to be shuffled but this one is made to be looped top down in order.

Say what you will about the current standard format but the fact it seems like nobody can come to a consensus on their lists and sideboard plans of the known best deck is pretty awesome to me.
Here’s hoping I find out I’m right this weekend 😁

For ages the balance was this- wizards makes cards for Magic the Gathering. Commander, a fan generated format, chooses how to use them and which cards to use. The problem started when wizards began making cards for *Commander* instead of for Magic the Gathering.

Pretty great feeling to be working on a 75 for an event and recognizing places you're applying things you've learned within the last year.

Some folks were worried that they'd sic thugs on the protestors or declare martial law. Instead they posted AI videos and complained.
These people have no juice. Their supporters are cowards. They are are all bark and no bite. They collapse when we push back. Remember that.
