The goddamn nerve of Jeff Bezos' newspaper to talk shit about raising the minimum wage at a moment when workers at Jeff Bezos' online superstore -- who are paid so little half of them in one study were on SNAP benefits -- are going hungry.

The fucking arrogance.
Wow, sounds like Jeff Bezos is mad

i probably sound like an asshole tonight but man i am fucking tired of pretending that democratic voters and urban people with all of the implications republicans have very much stopped pretending to dogwhistle about are not the heart of this country. it's us. it's always been us

Cuomo's campaign was a cesspool of racism and bigotry. Never, ever, ever forget that. Never let anyone who worked for him on this campaign worm themselves back into any kind of respectability.
cuomo calls him "mandami", everyone boos, then he's like "no, that's not us" like he didn't post the most racist fucking ads imaginable THIS LAST WEEK

I saw Masquerade (wonderful) and saw Anthony Oliveira and Lin Manuel Miranda there (neat) but did not see Lindsay Ellis. Someone tell me Lindsay Ellis has had a chance to see Masquerade I’m emotionally invested

nyc subway Discourse is always fascinating to me. the most danger i've ever been in was my fault—i slipped and got my leg stuck between the platform and the departing train. a stranger helped me, which is why i didn't get dragged or have my leg sliced off
subways are a foolproof test of the way someone views and relates to society bc all of society is allowed to be on the subway. i am one of the most kidnappable people on earth and i have never been afraid for my life on public transit. bitchmade posts

the reaction to Mamdani's campaign is clear proof that centrism is a reactionary ideology, and has nothing to do with a pragmatic desire to win.
A party that actually wanted to mobilize young and disillusioned voters would be studying Zohran Mamdani’s campaign like the Bible

Mamdani, Lander: This city rules. We think we'd do a good job running it. We'd like your vote.

Cuomo: From Yonkers to Mineola, New York is the place I call home. Here's a rapist I'm friends with who used to be in office 25 yrs ago. As an Italian I think it's natural to be suspicious of the swarthy

For a certain strain of conservative thinking, Judaism begins and ends with Israel, and the extent to which we can be used as a bludgeon against other religious minorities
I also think that Cuomo (not a Jew) calling Brad Lander (a practicing Jew) anti-Semitic because he didn’t invest in Israel bonds to be far more anti-Semitic than anything Zohran has done.

it is literally just the dual loyalty trope!

Anyway rank Zohran, Bronx Science is a better immersive jewish cultural program than birthright and he spent 4 years there

And like, nevermind that Cuomo has said extremely disparaging things about Jews celebrating Sukkot: Zohran believes that Palestinians deserve equal rights and freedom from occupation so he’s the antisemite. www.timesofisrael.com/cuomo-once-s...
Cuomo once said of Sukkot: ‘These people and their f**king tree houses’ — NYT
New York governor reportedly expressed frustration with campaign appearance at Jewish holiday event during his run for attorney general in 2006

Here’s another stark illustration of why the message can’t just be “don’t rank Cuomo,” it has to also convey the necessity of ranking 5 candidates www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

I kind of hope the next set of Andor episodes aren’t one year later but actually several years post ROTJ so we see the characters reckon with the rise of the first order

I want really important stuff that might kill me to be in the hands of people who studied that shit their whole life so that mastering the complexities of every aspect of human existence at once is not suddenly all on me, a theatre major
I could be wrong about this but I really think most Americans do not want to be forced to “do their own research” about food & drug & product safety and would rather that the government agencies that have been sorting that all out for them for decades not be obliterated in the name of “efficiency.”
