I sometimes create fun Spotify playlists (and write little blog posts to go along with them) based on what I'm currently listening to.

Here's one I just published. Enjoy!

people are saying that the Dems caved because they didn't want their holiday travel plans to be ruined.

if that's true, I hope God himself sends a once-in-a-lifetime blizzard that grounds all their flights. they don't deserve to go home. they don't deserve peace or rest.

Trump is 30 points underwater. Dems swept the special elections. People know the GOP is responsible for the shutdown. So the Dem Senators pulled out their big guns... and shot themselves in the foot.

The ACA made my whole self-employed life possible. For almost ten years, I was able to build a career that actually worked for me AND keep receiving necessary care to address the consequences of childhood medical neglect. And I still deserved better. We all do.

with the collapse of the shutdown & the weakness of the Dems on full display, I remembered this quote from The Crown, when the queen vents her anger about her previous/current PMs:

"Not one has lasted the course. They've either been too old, too ill or too weak. A confederacy of elected quitters."
a woman in a green sweater has the words " they 've either been too old too ill or too weak " next to her

do the water fountains in the Senate building just run straight lead
Hassan: With the government reopening shortly, Republicans now finally have to come to the table. Or make no mistake, Americans will remember who stood in the way.

look I know being an engaged citizen IS the work of democracy but it is also the work of elected officials not to create situations where everyone has to be mobilized all the time to prevent them from allowing some kind of Dickensian horror on a Sunday night while you're in between loads of laundry

heeeeeyyy...this is too loud

but also: yes. a ribeye, some butter chicken with garlic naan, my usual chipotle order, those pepperoni crazy puffs from Little Caesars...

all of them are life-saving if I'm hangry ☺️
At the heart of every woman she’s essentially a food… figure out the kind… figure out the order and you can live as a god forever
Get ya ears off the charger and listen:

“I don’t know what I want” doesn’t mean I’m not hungry. It means I’m about two inhales from being violently hangry & lack the executive function to navigate a menu. Know what I like to eat and FEED ME so no one gets hurt.

you can win without billionaires supporting you

you can win without party leadership endorsing you

you can win unapologetically standing with every persecuted minority pundits say are too politically toxic to touch

we could do everything about this process differently if we wanted to
Can’t stop thinking about all the robber baron fucks that held secret meetings and spent MILLIONS AND MILLIONS in bribes and campaign investments and attack ads and media manipulation trying to tank Mamdani currently having the dawning realization that their money is completely and utterly useless.

First NYC results are in: That's already 819,165 votes.

Mamdani: 51.5%
Cuomo: 40%
Sliwa: 8%.

(That's roughly 40% of the vote.)

On a second date with this man, we were driving and he pulled over the car abruptly, rolled down his window and shouted to this young man to "PUT ON A HELMET NOW." And that kid got off his bike and started walking it up the street with his head down.

I married that man.
“Ooooooo look at me i ride electric scooter fast down to the campus”

Yes, a general strike is entirely too much to ask from a populace that has suffered and continues to suffer from: mass layoffs, a horrorshow job market, a deeply predatory and broken healthcare system, shrinking/non-existent safety nets, and inadequate worker protections.

But that maybe isn’t super niche
Do you have any extremely niche, but serious, ethical stances?

- I don't care what you're going through: You never *ever* have the right to take your bad day feelings out on someone else. It's trash behavior.

- don't whine about paywalls to journalists -- it's so unbelievably rude & most don't get paid enough to deal w/ your complaints. plus, gift links exist

Spoilers aren't that big of a deal and you can enjoy any type of story that's been spoiled. And if you can't enjoy it, it says more about the artwork than the spoil.

We simply do not need to feel bad for James Franklin, a man who has enough money to never work again if he so chooses.
Decrying the unfairness of James Franklin getting fired with a $50 million buyout is an interesting choice when the national unemployment rate is above 4% lol
