best hate mail you get at Rolling Stone is MAGA boomers (who add a “the” or pluralize the name as if it’s the band) screaming that the mag USED to be about the COUNTERCULTURE and not WOKE BULLSHIT, as if it supported bombing Cambodia and Hunter S. Thompson admired Barry Goldwater

I’m trying to figure out how NFL owners respond to “Look you’re going to have to figure out a new business model your current one isn’t working correctly for Jesus.”

Abortion rights may score a huge win in Ohio tomorrow.

But keep in mind: organizers have had to resist major attacks on direct democracy to get here.

I'd talked this summer to an Ohio organizer & two others in Arkansas & Idaho about what's going on in red states. I think it's really worth a read:
‘We Have a Right to Put It on the Ballot’: How Organizers Are Defending Direct Democracy
Bolts invited three organizers in Arkansas, Idaho, and Ohio for a roundtable to discuss the attacks on ballot initiatives they are each fighting in their states, and lessons they’ve learned.

I mean sure, but I’m assuming the demographics of this crowd skewed highly towards the college educated, just saying
Remember these photos when the Republicans try and tell you that they are inevitable, and that they have a majority in this country. Trump went to an Iowa State game tonight and this was the response from the stands.

It seems widely believed that Trump has been boosted by indictments, at least among Republicans. My @mulawpoll *national* doesn’t show that.

W/ Reps Trump fav is down 6 and unfav up 5 comparing Jan-July 2023 to Jan-July 2022. W/ lean Rep fav down 6, unfav up 5 also.

It is absolutely crazy how stories about mainstream conservatives and billionaires associating with Nazis have become rather commonplace. Like imagine if a story came out in the 90s about Bill Gates championing David Duke and Tom Metzger.
Rising right-wing star Richard Hanania, championed by tech moguls Peter Thiel, Elon Musk, and Substack co-founder Hamish McKenzie, exposed as a nazi sympathizer and self-described "race realist" who advocated for the forced sterilization of Black people under a pen name. @letsgomathias.bsky.social
This Man Has The Ear Of Billionaires — And A White Supremacist Past He Kept A Secret
Hanania is championed by tech moguls and a U.S. senator, but HuffPost found he used a pen name to become an important figure in the “alt-right.”

Mike Pence referring to a “gaggle of crackpot lawyers” is rude, unprofessional, dehumanizing, and unbecoming a presidential candidate.
The preferred terminology is “The Federalist Society.”

Reading this made me realize the most descriptive term is really "habitat", like the artificial enclosures that zoos design for their animals.
"ecosystem" is such a cute name for the lifelong Apple hostage situation

Hard to focus! It's not every day Trump gets indicted. It's more like every fourth day now.
