I mean, after all, it was Abraham Lincoln who said that you can’t trust everything you see on an internet meme!

Keira Knightly is VERY good in that show.

*shudders at the mention of the name*

I have a friend who got caught up in Wasbappin’s twitter circle back in the 2010s. He left a few years ago and realizes that it was cursed, but never did the deep soul examination of “what was wrong with me that I thought these folks had something to teach?”

I saw this and was like “I need to follow the war on cars” and it turned out that I’m already following the war on cars!

This seems mostly fine, but Zellnor Myrie should be on this team.

And she might not! TBH, I have mixed feelings on NYC-DSA going for this. But I still passionately maintain that taking on Espaillat is way less “playing with a live grenade” than taking on Jeffries. And I say that as someone who is a HUGE fan of Chi Osse.

I think the key question here is: can the NYC-DSA dedicate the necessary resources to supporting her? I know they caught a break by not having to go all out for Alexa Aviles, but they’ve got NY-7, plus their state leg races and a lot of them will donate to/volunteer for Lander.

Disagree. Trying to take on Jeffries, even if we won, would bring down a hundred-fold wrath upon NYC-DSA and everyone associated with them compared to taking on Espaillat.

It’s really depressing that there are ostensibly progressive people who unironically believe this.

How are interlocks carceral?

The “Bananas are imperialism but cocaine is a necessity and the Indians will scalp me when we do landback” has since turned into one of the most pragmatism-obsessed people on the Online Left. You love to see it!

TBF, I think most progressives agree that it should be job-protected for CS staff to be a lot less docile than they are often expected to be, but that lady is a monster and probably also a nightmare to her colleagues as well. Good riddance to her.

An arguable example of a Dummymander was PA ‘06/08.

So much that’s bad with politics and policy is people overinterpreting the applicability of the Dril “wise man” tweet by many orders of magnitude.

@holborne.bsky.social As incredibly excited as I am for Zohran, I'm gonna miss this _a little bit_.

“Pathologically incapable of pessimism.” That is absolutely beautiful and just earned you a follow.
