Lots of people sharing this clip because it's funny and cathartic but I also genuinely believe it's important.
We have to win the narrative battle between "I live in a corrupt society and that's just how it is" and "I live in a corrupt society and we are going to defeat and humiliate these ghouls."

Don't Hesitate
~ Mary Oliver
—If you suddenly and unexpectedly feel joy, don't hesitate/It could be anything, but very likely you notice it in the instant when love begins./Anyway, whatever it is, don't be afraid of its plenty.

That may be true but the UK still has a massive housing shortage as well.
Put differently, if America had European "style" suburbs, much of the debate on affordability and density would not exist as it does today. That's how much of an improvement it would be at face value. It would immediately solve entire housing crises in at least several key regions, if not all.
This is true but glides over the fact that what passes as a suburb in e.g. England or France is already anywhere from x3-x5 more dense than their American counterpart. You are comparing things that are categorically different and are thus irrelevant to the American context lol

I’m sorry but this isn’t the burn they think it is. Theatre kids are awesome. Those famous actors everyone loves? Theatre kids. The really rough and tough alpha male types? Theatre kids. The ability to understand human emotion and project empathy? Theatre kids.
The right wing approach now is to put me in a box with an incredibly successful politician who just won a stunning victory.

Honestly I think @zackpolanski.bsky.social is a breath of fresh air here. Break the status quo. Make things better for the average human.
Good test of how UK politics at least is failing, there isn't a single frontline politician with a convincing big picture view of the country. Nostalgia, simplism, and warm words will have to do instead.

THIS. You want nice things? Give the government money for the nice things. Everyone benefits. Even the rich.
It's almost like when you tax the rich in a place you get to make that place a better place and even the rich just looking out the windows of their limos at most of that place in passing prefer to think "oh, that looks nice" rather than "I must prepare my bunker for the impending apocalypse"
NEW: The first two years of Massachusetts' millionaire tax has raised $3 billion more than expected.
And rather than driving the rich away, IPS researchers found that the number of millionaires has *increased.*

Turkey is vehicle for carbs and sauce. Nothing else. In that sense it is truly American.
There is something starkly funny about associating "true" Americanism -- which is to say whiteness -- with a food famous for being most often prepared so it becomes too dry and tough. A country where all pleasure must be hollow and performative!
(I love turkey when prepared well.)

It’s how you end up with language like “paperwork American” or the idea that Thanksgiving turkey is some sort of natural ethno-national tradition that certain other groups are incapable of ever appreciating

Katie Wilson now leads by 1,976 votes -- almost out of recount territory! If she leads by 2,000 votes or more, no recount will be mandated. Either way, @wilsonforseattle.bsky.social is going to be our next mayor! You love to see it.

Dude is basically that racist family member that people avoid at Thanksgiving while he yells at squirrels.
With a “WOW!,” President Trump posts a claim about DOGE and “royalties linked to Obamacare” that originated on a satirical website. That site’s own About section reads: “Everything on this website is fiction… If you believe that it is real, you should have your head examined.”

Yeah, this is a tricky one. Hang on a sec.
Messaging aside, maybe voters just don't *like* going to prison for peaceful protest? Or being pushed into poverty by continuing austerity measures targeting the most vulnerable in society while watching MPs line their own pockets with lobbying cash? 1/?

A party that rejects Reform - rather than copies them.

I gotta give it up to the writers tho. If NYC elects a Muslim mayor on the day Dick Cheney died, that is one hell of a slow played story arc. Every time you want to fire 2025's writers room they give you a little narrative resolution as a treat.
