I think the reason I’ve been so depressed for the last year is because as a society we decided it was morally fine to team up with dictators and supervillains as long as you were making a lot of money. Maybe that will change but a whole lot of people have already shown their figurative asses already

it is almost as if accommodating and conceding to far right ideas legitimizes them and signals to voters that the far right is a legitimate choice for governance
The Danish Social Democrats are currently on course for their worst election result since at least the Second World War, despite their brand of far-right accommodationism being touted as a blueprint for other centre-left parties.
Oh

I programmed the coffee maker to brew a full pot this morning. Husband decides it would be a good idea to use the coffee carafe as a watering can for the house plants and not replace it. Full pot of coffee brewed onto the counter, the floor…

When Republicans win elections: The people have spoken, we must let them implement their agenda.

Please don't use AI to make your event flyers and promotional material. There are so many talented artists and designers in the queer community who can make you something better. And if you can't afford them shitty MS paint flyers are queer culture, just do that instead!!

Another fundamentally cynical aspect of this narrative is the idea that pundits like Douthats wouldn't *also* accuse Democrats of radicalism if they passed a bunch of 'kitchen-table' policies. Are we really gonna pretend the NYT op-ed page would support a $20 minimum wage?
This right here, this exact sentence, is THE problem in American political journalism.
The IRA *was* cheap energy and good jobs! That was the whole bill! Democrats did precisely what political pundits are telling them to do and the pundits just ignore it.

Interesting paper! When you ask people about the most important issue "facing the country," they often say immigration. But when you ask them about issues facing them personally, it doesn't crack the top 10.
This indicates that voters are reacting to media narratives, not their own experience.

There’s this great quote from Shakespeare’s ANTONY AND CLEOPATRA where Cleo is mocking Octavius Caesar that encapsulates how it feels to have a job sometimes: “Do this, or this;
Take in that kingdom, and enfranchise that.
Perform ’t, or else we damn thee.”
Take in that kingdom, and enfranchise that.
Perform ’t, or else we damn thee.”

Do not be a doomer about this. Just call your New York friends and remind them to vote, and tell them to do the same. He is more popular and will win with good turnout.
i hate to be that bitch, but my sources are telling me this early voting data has gotten Zohran's people rightly spooked and y'all better stop assuming this one's in the bag. GOTV
Voter turnout surges in NYC mayor’s race, with Boomers and Gen X leading the charge
The data so far is good news for independent candidate Andrew Cuomo, a political scientist said.

The Trump admin is fully powered by the attention economy. A universe of dumbasess talking to other dumbasess, built on the assumption our tastes have grown so rotten and atrophied that we can't even remember a world where we weren't inundated by worthless slop.
