And we knew this. This wasn't speculation. We studied it, we had the talking points. We trained volunteers to explain this to people. It's not a surprise. Rich people don't flee places with good quality of life when we increase the quality of life. They might try to cheat us, but they don't leave.

Another reminder to get my doctor to run the deeper blood and iron tests on me, because it might all be more connected than I thought
TIL that blood platelets have serotonin receptors, which is why anemia can mimic depression symptoms and that is absolutely fucking fascinating.

Ruth can't move "Chris's Steakhouse," but she knows her worth, and she knows that for nearly a decade she's been the face of this place. So she moves to that new location, and just to make sure everyone knows this is the woman who's been serving them steak?
She calls it "Ruth's Chris Steakhouse"

I LEARNED THE ANSWER TO THIS
Chris's Steakhouse was a New Orleans landmark
Chris Matulich periodically got bored, sold it, waited for the new owner to fail, and bought it back cheap
The sale conditions: Can't move it, can't change the name
He did this six times
Then he sold it to Ruth Fertel

They don’t want Dem voters to get any ideas, like for example that it’s possible to win an election without the support of the richest 100 people in the city/district/state/world.
Remember, guys, Mamdani has national Dems worried about the implication of a win where the candidate sincerely engaged the people, put forth ideas that actually centered their concerns, and inspired the highest turnout in 30 years.
The turnout so far for the New York City mayoral election is the highest since 1993. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/11...

Every dictator that ever took power from a democracy declared a "temporary state of emergency" and then just never took it back. That's the moment they announce it. They don't say "we have a new government now."
There will not be some formal announcement that the government is now a fascist government.
It just happens.

reminder that Hitler never wrote a new German constitution, never "officially" changed the government
he just closed the legislature and ruled alone, against the law, until he was stopped

Nazis are not an abstract concept. They're not a myth, they're not from an alternative timeline. Acting like it's not really a big deal for someone to show ANY level of support about ANYTHING they did is unacceptable.
