You won't have to look in the obituaries, it will just become suddenly very noisy outside, regardless of what time of day it is. People will be shooting off fireworks, and honking horns, and laughing and crying, and it's going to be like that for quite a while when it finally happens.

Today is a good day to remember, and to say, that the #MeToo movement was right, and was righteous, and has been vindicated over and over again. There was no overreach. There was no excess. There was no they-went-too-far.
So much work remains to be done.

Dem gains in this week's elections erased the inroads Trump made with non-white, young, and low-income voters in 2024. In fact, the R-to-D shift from 24 to 25 is double Trump's gains from 20-24. Claims of a GOP political realignment have been highly exaggerated

A regime explicitly based around "we want the poors to starve" doesnt seem like a regime that's...ever so much as glanced at a single history book, ever
The USDA sent an email to grocery stores telling them they are prohibited from offering special discounts to customers affected by the SNAP funding lapse.
I'm aware of at least 2 stores that had offered struggling customers a discount, then withdrew it after receiving this email

one really cool thing about the trump phone is that I'll be able to tell much sooner whether or not I want to talk to someone when I'm out at a bar. the shiny glint of fake gold will be like a unisex, always-worn red hat -- I'll know pretty much immeds when not to engage! thanks for that, trumps!

This should be true for national elections as well. Trump clearly hates America. Why would anyone vote for that?
Huge congrats to NYC. I'm jealous of you. Now let's repeat that shit for national elections.

tbh given how our mayoral election and our city council election went, i think the local takeaway for local politicians is TAKE PRIDE IN THE CITY AND RUN ON THAT
plenty of my fellow libposters will say that the mayoral race of new york does not matter nationally, and they are mostly right, but what does matter is that good, charismatic campaigns work, and i would like to see my libposters give some credit to that.
