Sometimes I’ll hit Post or Reply and while it’s uploading I’ll think better and hit cancel. Then it appears anyway.

I think Mamdani should run in ‘28 to replace Chuck.

This still burns. Thankfully Ned Lamont, who beat Joementum in that primary, is now our governor.
the Rosetta Stone of dem politics is the 2006 senate primary which incumbent Joe Lieberman lost in part for making out with George Bush

He ran anyway, won with GOP support, dems let him keep his seniority, chairmanships and perks & he rewarded them by obstructing the ACA & killing the public option
An important question you cannot skip over in pursuit of the Primary Them All solution is: how likely is it that defeating entitled narcissists in a primary will actually stop them from running?

The only problem with the “Dems are playing 3D chess” theories of last night is that if that’s true it’s doomed to fail because to play chess you have to assume the other side will use actual chess pieces, play by the rules, and not throw the board on the ground if their pawn is threatened.

Dems: We’ll surrender spectacularly and place our heads on the chopping block. Republicans won’t dare chop our heads off and we’ll sweep the midterms.

If this were the bad place I would be tagging Kraft Heinz about the packet of Mrs. Grass’s soup powder that just exploded all over my kitchen floor.

I think we need to stop calling it empathy and go back to calling it decency. It isn't a favour you're doing someone else, it's you proving that you aren't a fucking ghoul

It’s amazing how many people sit in church on Sundays singing “whatsoever you do to the least of my people, that you do unto me” and then go off and, through action or inaction, do terrible things and claim they were just following JC’s orders.

More of this please.
I'm here outside Speaker Johnson’s office because he is starving families and gutting health care to cover up the Epstein Files.

I suspect that after only three words from me Nick Cave would be looking forlornly at his stylish watch.
I asked this before over at The Old Place and the answers delighted me. So again:

Who is an artist you admire who you suspect would not like you if they met you personally?

I think Peter Dinklage is fantastic. I would absolutely get on his last nerve. He'd be looking for the door while we spoke.

One of my favorite things about this place is that if I go to refresh my feed and as I’m doing it I see something interesting - it’ll still be there after the refresh.

Amazing concept.
