I just bought tickets to go see Twilight Breaking Dawn tomorrow. I also have never seen a Twilight movie. So stick with me today as I ingest this fatal dose of glitter.

Mamdani’s Shock Win Has Wall Street Fretting Over ‘Hot Commie Summer’
Even Zohran Mamdani’s detractors recognize that the vibes are with the 33-year-old democratic socialist.

I did my best to compile as many protest safety notes as possible into a one page foldout zine! Coincidentally…it seems the file has breached containment…like it’s available for anyone to print or hand out 👀⚖️

toonyart.com/s/PSZine.pdf
The cover spread from a one page zine printout. The left (back cover) features images of a scale and gavel, with notes on First Amendment and filming rights, and the advice to “shut the fuck up.” On the right is the cover, a megaphone with the title text “PROTEST SAFELY.” Behind it are faceless protestors. The subtitle notes, “A brief collection of tips from around the internet.” A spread from one page zine printout. On the left is an illustration of a protestor with the title “What to Wear,” including a helmet, goggles, ear plugs, gloves, a mask, a backpack, and layers/long sleeves/pants. Each have additional notes explaining their use. On the right is “What to Bring,” featuring illustrations of a backpack, money, water bottles, a mask, a granola bar and bag of trail mix, a first aid kit, folded shirt and pants, and an ID, with “DIY Defense” listed underneath it showing one protestor using a luggage case, one holding a trash can lid, and one using an open umbrella as a shield. A spread from one page zine printout. On the left is “Protect Your Identity,” advising to cover up identifying features, avoiding photography of protesters, deactivating biometric phone-unlocking tools, and writing emergency contact and counsel numbers on your arm. On the right is “Be Like Water,” the motto of the 2019 Hong Kong protests, and the text “BEWARE THE BAIT” with images of a palette of bricks and a masked man holding a crowbar toward a protestor with a sign, “Psst, free crowbar?” encouraging the reader not to engage with traps and undercover agents. A spread from one page zine printout featuring the hazards of protest opposition, including tear gas, rubber bullets, and LRAD sound cannons and flash bangs. Caution tape images accompany the text explaining the dangers of each, how to flush out eyes that have been maced/etc, and how to extinguish a gas canister with a traffic cone.

TIL: When the Original Star Wars Trilogy finally aired on Chilean TV in 2003, the network spliced custom beer commercials into the films themselves to avoid cutting to commercial breaks.

these additional scenes turn Obi-Wan & Luke into raging space alcoholics who are constantly shotgunning booze.

Inbox: “A TSA officer in Newark conducting a pat down asked if there was something hidden a man’s pants. The man reached down the front of his pants and pulled out a live turtle that was wrapped in a small blue towel. The turtle was estimated to be about 5-inches in length.”

Sometimes I'm astounded at how confidently incorrect I can be. Just now learning the (v good) show Shrinking is not related to the film Downsizing.

@gregsargent.bsky.social speaks for many of us:
"If I hear one Senate Democrat during these hearings say anything like, My friends on the other side of the aisle, I’ll just absolutely vomit on the spot."

This is from a great convo with @taraemcg.bsky.social about launching an information war.
McGowan: That’s my biggest fear in general: that Democrats are conceding already. We can’t concede. We need to show a unified front against this administration. And also we need to take them at their word. Every single talking point that was on Democrats’ mouth before Election Day, quoting Trump saying he would be a dictator on day one, these were out of Democrats’ mouths, right? And it was true. These were things that Trump has said. If we are still not taking them at their word, we’re not only conceding, we—we, meaning Democrats that are doing that— are also demonstrating that we don’t have a spine, and we are reinforcing a narrative that a lot of Americans believe, which is that both sides are full of it. Sargent: If I understand you correctly, Tara, you’re basically saying that they’re making their own previous rhetoric out to be hollow. McGowan: Yes. Also, it’s a self-fulfilling prophecy. We know that Trump is going to do everything that he said that he is going to do. We know that there is limited ... This is the only defense I will give Senate Democrats in these cabinet fights: There is little political capital here. If they go full nuclear on every single one of these candidates, they run the risk of pushing some of the Republicans who might be willing to vote against some of these folks away. I understand that pragmatic calculation. I just also think that we need to see real strength of leadership in the Democrats in Congress because they are the ones who are at the front lines of this fight, which frankly is solely an information war moving forward come January. They do not have power in federal government starting in mid January. So we actually need to know that they are up for this fight, and that they’re not going to concede because these are not people you can negotiate with. Sargent: Yes, critical point. When you don’t have power, the information wars become even more central. In fact, there’s a broader thing here at stake, and this is something your friend and mine, Simon Rosenberg, has talked about. It’s whether Democrats are able to reimagine their roles as public communicators in a way more in sync with the Trump era. You have some House Democrats who know how to do this or really know how to do it well: Jamie Raskin, Adam Schiff, soon to be California Senator, Eric Swalwell, AOC, Maxwell Frost, I’m probably leaving a few out. Senate Democrats ... McGowan: Crockett.
