Vampires are inherently Catholic. Werewolves are inherently Protestant. Zombies are inherently Atheist. Thank you for coming to my presentation.

So-called “inclusionary zoning” is an attempt to outsource a key state responsibility—providing subsidized housing to poor people—to private for-profit actors so the state does not have to raise and spend tax money. It is profoundly neoliberal policy.

Novium@novium.bsky.social

It is also weird how ardently this incredibly neoliberal model is championed by otherwise leftist activists

And now back to my full time job, texting the word "stop" to every living Democrat.

called costco to see if the birthday cake we ordered was ready and the woman said “the bakery doesn’t have a phone. it’ll be ready at the time you wrote down. have a nice day.” a quintessential costco interaction. 5 stars, renew my membership forever

It's really important to pay attention to the fact that Lula beat the fascist candidate not by compromising and trying to meet fascist voters in the middle, but by sticking to his guns, promising prosecutions for election interference, and mobilising his own voters to turn out in greater numbers.

Two good newses today! Amazing!

The long-serving strongman leader of Serbia, Aleksandar Vucic, has conceded defeat in an election that pitted him and his right-wing party against a diverse student-led opposition movement that spent two years protesting his government.

Lula winning is great for the planet, great for Brazil, and great for people who aren't revanchist assholes everywhere in the world, but let's not forget that it's also going to make some of the worst people on Earth extremely sad and mad. We should enjoy that, as a little treat.

The global pro-democracy, anti-fascist movement just notched two major wins today, after Students List in Serbia ousted strongman Aleksandar Vučić and Brazilian President Lula defeated the son of the man behind Brazil’s Jan 6 to win reelection! In 9 days, U.S. next!

American conservatives are constantly bemoaning the decline of aesthetic standards and calling for a return to tailored suits and classical Roman architecture, but are now forced to defend the Cheesecake Factory. A constant tension between the Brooks Brothers patrician and the Kid Rock populist.

If you had told me at any point in Lula's 1st or 2nd term not only that I would be rooting for him in the future ... but also that I'd be rooting for his *4th* term, when he's *80*, after multiple corruption convictions... and that I would think it was of *urgent global importance* for him to win...

Apparently, some Houston voters are putting their I Voted stickers on the Lorenzo Salgado Araujo memorial. Stephen Miller is ALREADY trying to scapegoat others for losing whatever races they lose in Texas and elsewhere. This is a vivid testament that for some voters, his murder squad is the reason.

In his acceptance speech, Lula says he will work to regulate digital platforms in Brazil. “Digital crimes must be dealt with like real-life crimes.” This comes after Meta directly interfered with the Brazilian elections, favouring Flávio Bolsonaro.

lol so all that fucking with the buses and he lost anyway? Amazing. Good work, Brazilians!

Flávio Bolsonaro refuses to concede after losing Brazil's presidential runoff to Lula. "It is impossible to acknowledge the election results. We will ask for the elections to be annulled."

my main takeaway from the cheesecake factory thing is that I remain extremely sad we never got an obama versus trump general election matchup obama would have broken him in half, rural dipshit whispering powers or no

I think Sarah McBride's presence in the caucus has been extremely important in preventing Labourization because most of these people are kind of dumb and she can explain what's going on in small words.

Bolsonaro-friendly mayors appear to be sabotaging public transport on Election Day. Buses aren’t running in Lula-friendly areas, flights and ferries mysteriously canceled. Traffic lights have gone out and people’s power cut in Salvador, indigenous people’s travel restricted

We are watching a coup d’état attempt unfold in real time in Brazil. I’m consumed by desperation.

This is legit how a lot of people are going to become lifelong Democratic voters and why contesting for attention on streaming and video is so important. People who are up for grabs aren’t reading news sites every day.

If you're at Costco Business Center and you can get all the barcodes facing upwards and none of them occluded the cashier thinks you're the best and can hit them all with the scan gun without moving them and checkout takes like 30 seconds. Keeps the kids occupied in line too!

just found out that if you bring your own bags and you organize the items on the belt in the most efficient way and are really fast loading up your groceries, you can sometimes get a compliment from the checkout person, in case anyone needed a new possible reward to try to unlock

the navy isn't as much of a surprise but i was not expecting we'd get the United States Marines in the national divorce

Really looking forward to the Woke Marines seizing Sevastopol in April of 2029.
