Dear Dem candidates,

Don't tell working class people to eat cake. If their anger is misguided or comes from your opponent's misinformation, address it. Don't whine about your opponent's tactics; if it's illegal, report it, otherwise take responsibility for earning votes.

I'm so fucking tired.

I have had a learning about a cool thing.
Frank Sinatra almost got into a fist fight with Bing Crosby on the set of High Society to defend the dignity of Louis Armstrong, who was added to the production due to Sinatra’s advocacy. It’s not hard to find PSAs for tolerance that Sinatra filmed!

Wrapping up my first semester at of going back to college as a middle aged lady, and I am fascinated and horrified by how easy it is to spot the Chat GPT slop other students submit. I can even tell that someone tried to mix up the prompt a little, and has no idea how weird the slop it returned is.

Watching the constant spread of the surveillance state is so fucking exhausting. I hope there is, or will be soon, a robust resistance movement against it in Canada.

I want to shove this story under the nose of every person who has said things along the lines of "people need to do it 'right' and follow the law if they want to stay here."

This makes me so angry.

This is good advice for anywhere that has had a leftist/progressive win.

People want change enough to vote for change, but their engagement with government is vital to those changes. And most people don't know how to do that.

The election is over, now the real work for change starts.
Way too much leftist discourse is polarized into denunciations vs defenses of Zohran

A more useful & important debate is how to organize enough New Yorkers to win Zohran's agenda — and to counteract the inevitable pressures on him from capital and the political establishment

I was just looking at restarting Netflix, for the first time in a few years, for some holiday vacation watching.

Wow.

How many people are paying $18 to $25 to not have ads?

Do most people put up with the ads in the cheap plan? I'm genuinely curious what the adoption rate is for each option.

Hard disagree. Pecan pie is disgusting. It's just soggy pecans floating in a gelatinous ooze of caro syrup, molasses, and eggs.
More people need to examine the theological implications of apple pie as evidence that God has a plan.
Key lime pie is good.
I make a pretty good pumpkin pie.
Apple pie is bad. This is not really debatable. So is key lime pie, while we’re on the topic. Pecan pie is the 🐐 tho.

License plate readers, or ALPRs, connect to a massive national database that feds have had their fingers in for years.
As with everything, it's worse under the Trump administration. They can find anyone, anywhere, and have an algorithm that picks out people to target.

Someone found an mp3 of the creepy "Jailbait" song Olivia Nuzzi released when she was 16 🫣

I have no idea how to interpret this. Maybe we'll get a bonus GOP Speaker ousting and subsequent drama.
WATCH: Speaker Johnson says he’s “deeply disappointed” the senate passed a bill he voted for 🤔

@rokhanna.bsky.social : “Johnson looks frazzled. He’s lost it, attacking a bill the survivors wanted without talking to them… that he voted for. He has lost the confidence of half his caucus.”

Omg it's so baaaaad 😂😂😂

I'm all about dropping occasional weird paragraphs with meter and a rhyme scheme into prose, but you have to know how those things work, and chat, this ain't it.

It's so broken up that she may not have done it on purpose and this is a zero draft survivor but who knows.

I regret to inform you that Olivia Nuzzi's book appears to be Perfect

Every single post in this thread made me angrier and angrier.

THIS DESCRIBES TEXAS.

If he spent a week in Texas shadowing any university professor, every item on this list would be checked off.

Ask Thomas Alter, Melissa McCoul, and anyone facing A&M's new approval process before discussing race.
My mistake has been trying to explain what "fascism" is to people who don't care what it is.

So I'm going to try something else. Let's do this as a practical thought exercise.

If America *were* fascist *today* - what would you have to do differently in your daily life? /1

Exactly. This is a LET THEM FIGHT moment, where we try to get everyone else out of the way, then watch the show.
If they want to come in, treat them like stray cats; quarantine them in the bathroom until they're vaccinated and confirmed negative for the really bad contagious stuff.
they can come into the tent when they admit they were wrong and change their views

we all joke about Woke Bill Kristol but he is for the most part the perfect example - he has, legitimately, become much more progressive

you can’t bring in people who are mad he’s not delivering on horrible shit

I am increasingly annoyed that the only genuinely new thing in iOS 26 was a conscious decision to make iPhones less accessible to people with any level of visual impairment. This was also an act of class war against aging millenials who can't afford Lasik.

I am all about welcoming people who have grown out of whatever fucked up racist/sexist/phobic place they were in, but that does NOT make such people electable candidates for office.
I have not seen a single defence of Platner based in good he's done, only a demand for forgiveness of a drunk Marine.
Ok so clearly some folks here are upset that I interviewed Graham Platner.

I think it’s important to explain what the Find Out Podcast is, and how we were born.

In short - our goal is to move men to the left. In order to do that - we have to welcome folks who have changed over time.
