mamdani is a no go, but marjorie taylor greene the transphobic, racist, homophobic antisemite bigot - they have room for her, they got room for nazi tattoo guy. no room for you though.
Raskin: We are a big tent. We must be a huge, vast tent. I say this is a party that’s got room for Marjorie Taylor Greene if she wants to come over.

The Wikipedia page for 2008 albums reveals I listened to basically nothing from that year, so based on what I have heard it's this.

Runners ups:
A GZA album (never listened to)
808s (never listened to)
A Tom Petty joint (never listened to)

I'm not linking to the article because 1) I don't know if the woman named ever had a relationship with Larry Summers and 2) I have no idea whether it was consensual. But the fact that he's teaching 3 classes this fall, with all of this going on, and nobody has pulled him out is absolutely bonkers.

Theres a big story waiting to be written on how these powerful PR firms plant and kill stories in major publications and how our information environment is not-so-subtly skewed by which people have access to them and which don't
it‘s doing the nyt thing where they publish a glam profile commissioned by a crisis management pr firm with well-known ties to past and present nyt writers

Antisemitism is a lot like Qanon child abuse conspiracies in that there’s this real and bad phenomenon and, parallel to that, what can only be described as a large scale mass psychosis about a mostly fictional version of the same phenomenon

I keep thinking through all of this, especially as we start to see more cracks in the MAGA base, about how helping the victims of sex trafficking is one of the only causes that evangelical women are allowed to be involved in without being shamed for caring about other people

Rebecca Heineman thought to preserve the source code to Fallout when nobody else did, she made the infamous Doom port to the 3DO under insane conditions, and most importantly inspired many trans folks through the years with her career.

gonna be sad about her passing for a long while...

This is why AI is so dangerous

Financial institutions will use it to scrape the web to discriminate against you — yes, YOU — and debank you

Today, it’s for being an adult VA

Tomorrow, for being trans? Gay?

Is there a book like White Fragility…
but about American adults and the air they breathe?

Because someone needs to write the book on why a nation that buys air fryers, air fresheners, air purifiers, scented candles, and aromatherapy oils…
won’t fight for clean air that keeps their children alive.

NYT renaming a vast international child sex trafficking ring as a "clubby world that is all but gone" while the most-named rapist in the few documents we've seen is in the most powerful position in the world who is now operating an equally vast human trafficking/torture operation is fucking vile
Seriously, what is wrong with these people?
