Does anyone want 2 GA Tickets to the @puptheband.bsky.social and @jeffrosenstock.bsky.social show at Showbos SoDo Seattle tonight?

My grandmother is in hospice and passing soon, so I can no longer attend my dream show and I want to make sure someone else who will enjoy it can.

seeing bluesky get more upset about a bad PR move by the website’s owner than the occupation of major american cities and people getting shot in the streets is making me want to throw up

Maybe I'm biased (I am) but to me this looks better for AOC than newsome because AOC supports popular things and Newsom is just vibes with a TON of oppo that just isn't mainstream focus (yet) - it seems like if they are polling similarly now an environment that digs in would favor AOC strongly.

Lakshya Jain @lakshya.splitticket.org · 6d

Something that was a bit surprising to me this time around:

I tested the favorables of Vance, Trump, Gavin Newsom and AOC in our latest survey.

Newsom: 36/40 (-4)
AOC: 36/41 (-5)
Vance: 39/51 (-12)
Trump: 42/57 (-15)

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

ICE just blatantly violated the law and arrested sitting Chicago Alderperson Jessie Fuentes while seeking to illegally arrest a patient in a hospital. Fuck these fascists.

yeah it's a sorta obviously good idea (though its implications for "nation" are maybe not so good - but I think it can be argued pretty easily that "nation" is kinda out the window and maybe a bad idea on its own). Either way it rug pulls a lot of justification for institutions to Be Shitty.

fuck gavin newsome but making states choose between local vs federal backing is a really effective way to combat the Trump Shit and more people should do it.

I literally hate to give Newsom credit for anything, he's a snake when it comes to transgender issues, but he's legitimately doing a good thing here.

I rode the metro almost every day of my post ten years old life until I went to college and the worst thing that happened was one time my friend Mike threw up. These people are pathetic worms.

Horrifying— Barbara Gomes Marques went with her US citizen husband and lawyer on 9/16 to a green card appointment at USCIS office in downtown LA where she was tricked into walking down a hallway away from them, was snatched by ICE and never came back. She now faces imminent deportation in Louisiana.

that the spirit scored its second NWSL hat trick ever and Trin became the club’s assist leader with only 17 (now 18) assists really shows how much we suffered in past years 🥲
