like most adaptations of classic works, Frankenstein (2025) was kinda doomed to be a disappointment for folks because they are not just going to compare it to one of two published versions of the story, but their personal interpretation of an antique text

Hey, I know the shut down is technically over but if you’ve got the time or money, please keep helping the food banks. It’s going to be really rough heading into Thanksgiving and Christmas after the double hit of SNAP recipients and Federal workers needing help. ❤️

It is genuinely fucking upsetting that ten years after Ireland voted in a landslide for equal marriage, we're watching the US barely hang on to it by their fingertips. Progress should not be a zero sum game.

there was an incredibly stark change at my job between 2023 and 2025. just absolutely day and night.
i dont think there’s ever been a point where corporate america has had a sincere sense of morality but it is probably a sign of the times that the culture at most major firms does not even pretend to encourage ethical behavior anymore. the transformation is really stark in tech.
i honestly do not know what major company in america isnt involved in some ghastly shit at this point? i just would not *do* the ghastly shit yourself.

A Dem senator had one (1) flight canceled and decided to give into Republican demands and re-open the government. That's exactly what happened.
not enough chatter about how frequently members fly and how attacking airport capacity directly affects them in a way that cutting SNAP does not

Anyway a great way to radicalize people is for them to realize that you just abandoned their chance at being able to access and afford health care because you didn’t like waiting in line at the airport.

The coordinated nature of this—none are facing voters in 2026—means that either Schumer approved it or failed in his job as Senate Majority Leader to stop it.
Dems voting "no" get zero credit until they demand a change in leadership. Schumer out as Leader, Durbin out as Whip.

so currently defectors are:
Kaine (2030)
Shaheen (Retiring)
Hasan (2028)
Fetterman (2028)
Durbin (Retiring)
CCM (2028)

Senators on the brink of retirement who lived full, wealthy lives and never feared the loss of their own healthcare voting for their constituents to die from their inability to afford the same is treasonous

I know why people get too excited to be right about how things can't get better - the validation high is AMAZING - but just think about Schumer getting a surprise retirement in 2028 and tell me it won't feel incredible
Senator AOC is definitely going to be an improvement

one thing i do remember is that the republican party, before it went MAGA, was too weak to keep MAGA from taking it over. remember trump steamrolling all of those guys and now he tells them what to do and the worst elements of his base are in charge. democrats seem that weak now too. no control

bluesky has been really bad about treating the suffering of federal workers and their families as a nonfactor in all of this. with that being said, i’ve been asking around, & most of the federal workers i talked to are angry that they went through all these weeks for nearly nothing

It is always November 2016 and the left is always to blame for pointing out the problems. The only difference is that now they don't even have an explanation for how. It's just, "democrats need to stop proving the left right, it's REALLY irritating!"
