Much of the violent, racist rhetoric from the man arrested for allegedly threatening the life of Zohran Mamdani is almost indistinguishable from what top GOP politicians were saying in the days after Mamdani won the primary. (Also similar to what Girdusky said to me on CNN!)

If, say, Louis Farrakhan was brutally murdered, I hope we would all condemn the murder.

But I am pretty sure Republicans wouldn’t be celebrating his life and legacy and insisting no one criticize anything he ever said or did.

Einbinder on saying 'free Palestine' during her Emmys speech:

"It is my obligation as a Jewish person to distinguish Jews from the state of Israel. Our religion and our culture is such an important and long-standing institution that is really separate to this sort of ethnonationalist state."

A must-read explainer from @jcobevans.bsky.social on carbon budgets.

If 🇦🇺 is to avoid blowing ours, we need an emissions target of 75% cut by 2035. The Govt must stand up for Australia’s future and set a target that secures their future.

I plan to post this ABC News supercut video of Trump calling Harris and Democrats "fascists" (and "communists"!) everytime I see a Republican on TV whining about Trump being called a "fascist" by the left.

Oh, the hypocrisy! Oh, the gaslighting!

I made this video 2 years ago. I had a lot of people tell me I was being dramatic. Now we know UNH are pushing nursing home to get residents to sign DNRs. I’m so glad people are waking up.

People do this in healthcare and it always irritates me. “Look at that patient. They sit there with an iPhone but say they can’t afford their medications?” Buddy, you are mad at the wrong thing.
Never take seriously those who ridicule low income people for having a smartphone or laptop.

“If they’re so poor how did they buy an iPhone???”

Because they’re trying to escape poverty, not the 1700s, genius. If you think basic tech access is unnecessary or a luxury, survive a month without it.

There’s a stray cat who comes around our house. He was looking skinny, so we’ve been leaving out cat food. Haven’t seen him in awhile, but the food was gone every morning, so I assumed he was eating it. Turns out a fat ass possum has been eating it. Asshole has been living like a king on cat food.

Wherever possible please buy your books directly from authors and/or publishers. Even ebooks (then Amazon can't delete them either). We make a better cut and you get the same thing or better, plus Bezos and ilk don't get richer. Win win win.

There is a new democratic movement bubbling up underneath the surface. It is developing organically and being arrived at both individually and through networks.

It is there, it just needs to keep getting tapped into and released. And people who see it need to coordinate and connect.
