Gilibrand was appointed to her seat and got to run as an incumbent in super blue NY state ever since! Her record of winning competitive races are two house races in consecutive Democratic wave years
Not to harsh on someone whose 2020 presidential bid I genuinely liked, but are we sure the current DSCC chair is the right pol to set forth as some Hank Aaron of ‘winning difficult races’?

if Mamdani working with people from YIMBY groups (a thing that is *very* obvious for him to do) pisses off Kate Willett, i wish him a long career in Dem politics
Mamdani will be having private conversations, and he will have information that the public does not have access to
I'm curious whether people will continue to trust him or if they'll assume he's betraying his voters any time he does something non-obvious
I'm curious whether people will continue to trust him or if they'll assume he's betraying his voters any time he does something non-obvious
So, the way politics works is that Mamdani is going to encounter a significant roadblock sooner or later. He simply will. My money is that it will be the NYPD, but it might be landlords or something else.
When that happens, I'd better not see anyone whining about how he's betraying anyone.

Walk into a bank where you don’t have an account, walk out with startup capital?
Sounds impossible.
But we did it. Some times you just have a to want it bad enough.
Here’s what we did. First, we learned where the bank manager lived.

Founders on LinkedIn still seem to be struggling with the difference between telling people about their humble beginnings and admitting to straight up committing fraud.

China having ties to Venezuela is not a new development ushering in a new era of multipolarity, it's been a thing for decades
Indeed, China’s backing of Venezuela signals a pivot in global loyalties. As U.S. influence wanes, emerging alliances are redefining the geopolitical balance—ushering in a multipolar world.

And Trump might end up complicit in TWO genocides because he clearly wants to murder as many Venezuelans as possible and because I am a Venezuelan I think that's significantly worse than genocide in Gaza and getting Maduro to sell cheap oil to Exxon Mobil
Who would you like her to impotently murder? She is already complicit in genocide
Even if I thought that Kamala Harris was going to do a regime change war in Venezuela she'd probably do it in a way that didn't involve impotently murdering civilians off the coast for no reason, actually. This difference does in fact matter.

in mgs3 there's a bug(?) where, if the fear gets hit with a stun grenade, all lethal damage done to him turns into non-lethal damage. so the optimal strategy for beating him is to pretend to kill yourself, throw a stun grenade, and empty a clip from an ak-47 into his back.

Yes, something that Israel does which is actually quite rare is consider all civilian workers, whether they be in municipal government or in private reconstruction or health sectors, to be combatants *by way of second, third, or even fourth degree association*.
Construction crews attempting to rebuild civillian infrastructure in Gaza or Southern Lebanon are also considered confirmed terrorists.

This show is great, every episode is like "I am 73 years old and dependent on a CPAP machine. I moved to the middle of Blood Bear Death Ravine, seven thousand miles from the nearest generator. I am morally opposed to hunting and farming, and my budget is $16.34. Please send help." 10/10, no notes.

Deus Ex has a texture with the Twin Towers in its files but all the levels where it could be used were at their texture memory limit so the devs just decided that the Twin Towers had been destroyed in a terrorist attack to explain why they weren't there
i was going through my X archives and found this by @superpodsaga.com, which I qrt'd at some point years ago
so, let me bring the question back: what is the most useless piece of video game knowledge you know?

So I caved today and turned on Gemini's assistant on my phone thinking maybe the very obvious use case of allowing the voice assistant to take a somewhat complex sequence of voice commands in natural language and executing them the way I want might be worth something.

Taking a fascist republican seriously when they say that they support democracy and putting them in a position such that they might pick up the pieces of the party and gain prominence as a sane moderate with clout among liberals after Trump gors is a bad thing, hope this helps
I don’t care that Mamdani met with Trump and they had a cordial meeting. I do care that many of the people lauding this action were incensed that Kamala Harris accepted Lynne Cheney’s endorsement based on their mutual support of democracy.

Whitmer characterized Trump as working to bring about a golden age of American manufacturing and directly echoed his rhetoric, for the love of god people listen to yourselves.

See I could reply to this by snarking about the liberals I've seen on this website wanting to rehabilitate MTG the past few days but instead I'm gonna be the adult in the room and recognize that not every liberal is the most annoying liberal I know on bluesky, you're welcome I have spared us a fight
Can I say the bitter irony that leftists swore liberals would rehabilitate Trump when they’re so fucking HORNY to welcome Trump in the party and some of them want MTG no less when liberals are all “rip and tear” for all Republicans.
If you don't want to kick trans people out of bathrooms and sports to triangulate with 0.1% of voters in North Carolina OR demolish trans rights by electing Republicans because the Dems aren't sufficiently pro Palestine, you just might be a Liberal!

this, too, is homestuck
Season 6 of buffy is without a question my favorite season of television because I have never watched a season of television with that level of self-loathing before and it speaks to me at a visceral level
this is especially true of the last two seasons, where the show seems to hate the audience, its cast, and life in general
