This needs more attention: Zohran SPLIT the straights with Cuomo. ALL of his margin was from LGBTQ+ voters. Every Dem who ever said “we should abandon the transes” needs this shoved down their fucking throat with a ramrod.

Stuff like this is why that "The far left are the ones saying that identity politics are bad for Democrats" guy form yesterday are goddamned liars.
thinking about this interview from 2024 of incredibly smug Labour strategists telling Democrats to abandon immigrants and move to the center

I’m going to be honest with you: The headline is appalling, but the piece, which indeed has an absolutely bizarre tone of nostalgia, is worse.

Anyone who’s ever used emergency contraception or gains peace of mind by even having it on hand owes Dr Camp a debt of gratitude. What a force.

(Also, I just learned one reason the FDA rejected it at first was that they said the name Plan B was too glib!)

Great obit—no paywall.

I am legitimately not happy that MTG is getting death threats, and I also have to triage my concern and empathy these days so unfortunately there are a lot of people ahead of her in line and she helped put a lot of them there.

Dems screamed because the Progressive Caucus in the House threatened to vote no on the infrastructure bill over the continual loss of stuff they wanted in the bill.

But Manchin doing the Darth Vader "alter the deal" skit from Robot Chicken was a-okay.

It's exhausting when you realize that even Putin isn't this nakedly corrupt.

Just how morally, ethically, intellectually bankrupt do you have to be to argue that 15-year-olds can sell sex but can’t affirm gender

I don't think we're ready for the psychic damage the Epstein files are going to cause us.

Not the horrors we fully expect, but the kind that attack without warning.

Like learning that DONALD TRUMP GAVE BILL CLINTON A BLOWJOB JESUS FUCKING CHRIST MY EYES. MY SOUL.

Have not met this and not super urgent but realized we are out of toilet paper and paper towels at home so $10 for me needed lol
Ask for my kids dad/kids

He finally got furniture at his place, so the kids have beds! Yay!
But the program they had him use doesn't provide bedding so need to grab two sets of cheap twin bed sheets if possible. Guessing $30-40 for 2? He doesn't get funds for this

newsom sucks shit for multitudinous reasons. Why do so many people put him forward as their guy? Because he does shit like this. Easy, low hanging fruit. Why doesn't every single Democrat refer to him as President Pedo? Troll him endlessly? Demand his resignation! Simple shit!

Now, had I outgrown his work by the time the news broke? Sure. Is that relevant? Nope! Does looking at it through the lens of what we know now change it? Absolutely. Does it mean anyone who ever found some sort of inspiration or solace in it over the last few decades was wrong? no lol fuck off.

when a certain high-profile author was revealed to be a fucking monster, I had to reckon with the fact that I found his books at a very formative time, and that his influence will always be part of me. I have to carry that. It sucks! But it doesn't behoove us to pretend monsters can't make art too.
Here's a thing that I despise: When someone is outed as an abuser, TERF, terrible human, and ppl start going "I never liked them anyway" "I never found them funny" "They never wrote good things to begin with" and seriously shut the hell up. All of that is just to position you are superior and (cont)

Holy shit, just learned about the typewriter art of Montserrat Alberich Escardívol, a Catalan typist. Using an extra wide typewriter and 180 color ribbons, she built up elaborate images from simple characters like 'm' and '.' and ';'. Here is her typewritten painting of the Cathedral of Barcelona.

Earnest post: there is increasingly direct evidence that Trump participated in child sex trafficking or at least knew about it.

He should resign, be impeached and removed from office, and prosecuted.

Even if you don’t think that WILL happen it’s important to say publicly that it SHOULD happen.
