My most dad-coded opinion is that there is a gaping hole where Tom Petty was in the musical landscape.

the last sentence in the first paragraph lacks a punctuation mark. there's inappropriate semi-colon use, hyphens instead of em dashes (by the end she got one right) fragmented sentences, sentences starting with conjunctions...
this would be embarrassing work for a 9th grader.

I truly don't understand the evil calculation that you can throw trans people to the fascist mob & somehow prosper. You will never succeed in your cynical, too clever by half aims, you have already surrendered something essential. Imagine if the counteroffer to the Right was: nothing. Not one inch!

bari weiss may be a cancer on the ass of journalism, but without this attempted smear campaign i might never have learned about mamdani's based take on sex work
Bari Weiss's website assigned a reporter to read every single Zohran Mamdani tweet over the last 18 years and came up with shockingly little dirt.

This is correct. Any candidate cynically “triangulating” on trans kids is a non-starter, and now is the time to say so. There’s still so much time to advance candidates that DON’T suck.
I will never, ever vote for Gavin Newsom. Ever, under any circumstances. I don't care if he becomes the Dem nominee, he's still not getting my vote.
On a recent podcast Gavin Newsom tells Shawn Ryan how the Trans sports issue opened the door for him to change his mind on GAC for Trans Youth.
As someone who adored him since 2004 and voted for him 5 times, I can't wait for him to leave office.
There is no way I will be voting for him a 6th time.

A tenant lawyer I went to high school with, who has never lived in NYC, told me that I’m a “Kapo” and that my Holocaust survivor grandfather was rolling in his grave, after I said more people voted for Mamdani because of affordability concerns than because they want to globalize the intifada.
If I may be a contrarian here I'd argue that the victory of a democratic socialist is not "like a spiritual Kristallnacht."

BREAKING: Mamdani and Lander will cross-endorse.
The partnership, which is being announced one day before early voting begins, would effectively turn Mamdani and Lander into something of a joint entry. They hope that one of them will eventually accumulate many of the other’s votes as a result.

The only reason Andrew Cuomo hasn't gotten more speed camera tickets in New York City is because he's only lived in New York City for less than a year. Don't rank Cuomo.

cuomo sucks and hates NYC, don't vote for him!!
“After several days of fighting, the governor’s staff finally told us it was Cuomo personally blocking it because he didn’t like that the mayor would be the one to open Citi Field.” www.politico.com/news/2025/03...
Cuomo held up Citi Field mass vaccine site amid beef with de Blasio
The account, shared by nine people involved in New York’s pandemic response, conflicts with the image Cuomo cultivated as a steady leader in a time of tumult.

Rahm Emanuel covered up the murder of a Black teen, and shuttered public clinics and schools. Cuomo covered up COVID nursing home deaths and harassed women. These men heard "now is the time of monsters" and decided to attempt a comeback. They both belong in hell.
