This is also why I reject defining the political core of "queerness" as "same-sex activity."

That political core is actually deviation from the standardized male-female system, with its accompanying sexual ecosystem.

I hope this doesn't sound mean but I don't have much sympathy to spare for Usha Vance, Kash Patel, or Vivek Ramaswami as they deal with an onslaught of virulent racism that must be surprising. It isn't schadenfreude; rather it's recognizing cause and effect.

It’s clear who the aggressors are. Keep remaining nonviolent, and record EVERYTHING. All of these masked ICE thugs will be held accountable.

It's uncanny how Cuomo has been laser-focused at appealing to the absolute worst qualities in people - their insularity, their tribalism, and now their fear. A campaign monumental in its cynicism, a colossal bet by this man and his billionaire backers that people are basically bad.

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 5: Vito Marcantonio

There are many who dismiss our vision for New York as impossible. To them, I say we need look only to our past for proof of how we can shape the future.

Tomorrow is Election Day. And this is the final Until It's Done of our campaign.

✅ FOR Rebecka Lovisone
❌AGAINST Aaron Skoff

for city council

They’ve all gone mad.

Texas Governor Greg Abbott: “After the polls close tomorrow night, I will impose a 100% tariff on anyone moving to Texas from NYC.”

i’m under the influence of living in nyc as cuomo and his allies try to finish one of the ugliest campaigns in recent memory as hideously as possible, so take this all with grains of salt but: i just feel like this country is not as mean and as brutish and as nasty as these people seem to do. 1/n

Thinking back to when the Matrix came out and I saw it in theaters 3 times in 5 days. Wonder if there'll ever be a movie that makes me do that again.

Attorney General Pam Bondi says she has retroactively appointed former Trump attorney Lindsey Halligan as a "special attorney" for DOJ and has "ratified" all of her actions to date, including her presentations to the grand juries that indicted Trump's foes.

realize that I should have re-shared this already, in honor of Rabbi Arthur Waskow's passing (it's got a bunch of his Torah in it, the famous "acid rain" teaching) --

People fucking hate this guy. They fucking hate ICE. They fucking hate how much power he has. He is at 63% overall disapproval to 37% approval. That's lower than their poll after January 6th. And this poll was done before he started intentionally starving people. I wish our media would reflect this.
