Time once again to rep my favorite place for giving: anelder.org - they supply food, firewood and supplies for traditional crafting to Navajo Elders. If you have the cash, please give these folks a hand.

The thing about healthcare policy is that developed countries’ systems *are* falling apart at the seems but the problem is that we’re just getting older. It’s kinda interesting how pensions are a sore spot in the intergenerational wars but healthcare isn’t

People really think how much healthcare you need is all lifestyle factors but it’s actually age! 28 year olds with unhealthy lifestyles barely consume healthcare, 70-something marathon runners need a lot!

Liberal Currents is the type of institution I wish had a bigger role in the current political climate, and I hope that this fundraising goal, reached thanks to all the people who feel the same, helps them achieve just that.

Due to the fact I still have a big back log of commissions to do I am opening very limited slots but these will not be started until next year/when my current queue is finished which is why they are so heavily discounted.

Not exactly the ideal situation to be in right now 😓

Cas Mudde spells out what has become largely the consensus among researchers: moving right on immigration will not weaken the far right nor strengthen social democracy. If your reaction is "but in Denmark" please at least familiarize yourself with Danish politics

This week’s local elections are the latest reminder that when social democrats move rightwards, they’re making a mistake, says academic and author Cas Mudde

I increasingly get asked why then do parties still do it. I don't have a good response but it has imho a lot to do with internal decision making, power struggles and political advisors. I don't think politicians should just "follow the research" but it is striking how many arguments are just wrong.

This is not to say all campaigns are scams. Many are real! But you need to look closely at where you put your money.

Hey I know I normally post art but I saw a people fall for scams so I wanted to share this. Keep in mind gofundme cannot directly pay out to Palestinians and they require someone else in one of these countries to be the beneficiary. Make sure your money reaches real Palestinians and not scammers

It is amazing how much anti-globalism has outsourced their agitprop, if that debacle on Twitter is any indication.

i think you might be able to do this but it's, uh, not the infra team's job. the infra team's job is linear. sparse experts / cut cache misses tenfold (and that's more than just kv cache) / mixture-of-depths probably gets you two OOMs.

Russia has destroyed the last functioning power unit in Chernihiv region, The Guardian reports. The facility was hit directly, its equipment completely obliterated. Concrete walls were in place, but the roof was unfinished, and a full underground shelter would have required months of work.

Not for nothing but the “bromance” stuff is as made up cope as anything else. I haven’t heard a clip of Mamdani saying anything other than “I appreciated the invitation to discuss things with him” and agreeing that he called him a fascist

Like if he had gone on about how much he loves Trump I’m pretty sure we’d all be pissed off at the guy. I am perfectly ready to tell Zohran to fuck off if he messes up, he’s a mayor who give a shit.

My guess is that Zohran wanted Trump to like him while also not appearing like he endorses anything Trump is doing and unless I missed something mission accomplished buddy

what i suspect here is that for Trump himself, accusations of fascism are viewed as "keyfabe" by either side
During his visit to the White House, NYC Mayor-elect Mamdani was asked about a recent interview in which he called President Trump a fascist. Mamdani began to answer the question before Trump jokingly cut him off.

he isn't really insulted by it because he just thinks it's a word that people use in order to play the heel

He's a sociopath who doesn't believe in anything he says & because he can't conceive of other people as separate entities he believes that's how everyone operates.

At least Trump is going into this with an open mind as a positive and optimistic unifier of the American people.

Like whatever you think of Mamdani as an actual future mayor or conceptual national Dem, the kid has the fucking juice on camera

My prediction is that he’s going to charm Trump to such an extent they have to spend a few days cleaning that up, and makes Vance look like a dipshit
November 20, 2025 at 2:06 AM
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Anyway, I bet the meeting with Mamdani is either going to be like the meeting with Zelensky (an attempt to embarass a political figure that contradicts the Trump narrative) or the meetings with Starmer (polite, but whatever cordial gestures are just that, empty and just for show).
