Pro tip: end a dog pile early by plugging your podcast or other project in the replies and watch your mentions magically clear up as they hurriedly put you on multiple block lists they all subscribe to.
So much fun when the shitlib quote posts so his rancid followers can dogpile.

Vile behavior from someone with vile politics.

Girl, International is even worse, my God. "I sell custom cat clothes, and my partner hums people to sleep over the phone. Our budget is $1.4 million, and not a penny over!"

** UPDATE **

"So, we went with the 6th century cathedral... it was $4,000,000 over budget, but we REALLY love it..."

it’s breathtaking to see how this country is in decline by every possible metric
Devastated to learn that Univ of Texas at Austin is closing the American Studies dept. The years I spent there earning my PhD were formative, making me the teacher, thinker, and writer I am today. I've passed on what I learned at UT to thousands of students over the past 20 years. Just awful.

yankee lib Gen Xers are not beating the "fascist collaborator" allegations in regards to their treatment of vulnerable minorities who live in the south.

all too fucking happy to laugh and jeer as our gerrymandered-to-fuck states work towards ethnic cleansing and trans genocide.

Real talk: a weird number of trans women who've stayed fully on Twitter have drifted to the center and I don't fully understand why aside from the fact that their brains are being boiled in right-wing propaganda day in and day out. Actually, yeah, that's probably it.
The Venn diagram of trans women who stayed on Twitter these last two years and trans women who say "anything less than Trump is good with me no matter how many of us it kills!" is a perfect circle.

I apologize for this but I created a long thread about trans youth healthcare in blue states and about how y'all in those states ignore the warnings of queer southerners at your own peril.

We're the Ghost of Christmas Future and your Scrooge ass had best listen.
I had to grab dinner and step away from my phone before I cracked the screen but I'm back now.

You are correct in saying most blue states do not have a state level ban on trans youth healthcare. Only New Hampshire outright bans it. HOWEVER...

We don't want Gavin.

So who do we want?

Im firm believer in the saying "an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure"

So let's get proactive around other candidates now.

Like right now.

This weekend.

Who are we going with?

We have to pick someone before we get handed someone

If this many people are already pissed about him, this far out then we need an alternative

And it's it gotta be an alternative that we can support and boost so when the time for nominations comes, that candidate is ready to hit the ground running

Bc if we leave it to the DNC, they'll give us gavin

Can we have an adult conversation real quick?

Seriously, if you can't do it, go to the kids table and hush.

Who is the choice besides Newsom? I am NOT saying he's the only choice, or that he's a valid choice.

I am asking who is the alternative that we need to be rallying around right now?

They claim leftists and progressives are an untrustworthy voting bloc who put petty political grievances ahead of party support all the while they vote GOP or (gasp)third party if the candidate isn't pro capitalist, pro genocide, pro imperialism, and pro police state.

We must organize without them.
Hard truth: Vote-Blue-No-Matter-Who doesn't apply to socialist leaning candidates who win primaries.

Dem dead-enders insist leftists will lose because they know they themselves will vote Republican instead of supporting one. It's the unspoken threat.

Stupidest motherfuckers to ever live: we must appeal to blue-no-matter-who and to right-wingers.

Trannies: the former will vote for you regardless of appeal, the latter will vote against you likewise. You could activate your base instead?

Who's that guy who's brought in to make sure the Dems lose elections? I can't remember his name. The one who stopped Harris calling the creepy fucks on the Rep side "weird". Anyway blue-no-matter-who IS GOING TO VOTE BLUE NO MATTER WHO IT'S LITERALLY IN THE NAME YOU DON'T HAVE TO TRY TO WIN THEM OVE
Natalie is right! If you look at the groups who consistently steer democratic presidential campaigns, you will find them to be the ones with the highest propensity to vote. Nobody wants to hitch their horse to a fickle base. A blue-no-matter-who voter is worth four strategic-withholders.

gods damn it someone pitch Tranny Future as a podcast spinoff to November Kelly.
The thinking is about the reactionary push, not the opinion of gen x and older people in America. I know that's objectively true because they're the ones who love to pop off the most and they're the ones practically frothing to throw us under the bus, hoping Newsome can save them from Tranny Future.

Hot take: The West Wing is the greatest fantasy television program ever created. George R.R. Martin, C.S. Lewis, or Tolkien could never achieve the rich, imaginative, impossible world where saying "sir how dare you sir" would make liberal politics work that Aaron Sorkin brought to life.

at least they're reposting a bit of praxis encouragement so maybe it's a good sign?
I'm a big fan of The Golden Rule and DHS is clearly showing how they wish to be treated.

It would be rude to not honor their wish.

Even if you fully intend to vote for whoever the Democratic nominee ends up being, there’s a huge difference between doing that quietly in November 2028 and loudly announcing it years in advance with zero conditions attached.
What's the purpose of saying that there's no position so extreme that someone could lose your vote? Especially this far out? You're effectively giving possible candidates the all clear to move as far right as they'd like. This seems foolish.
