US APPEALS COURT DENIES TRUMP ADMINISTRATION'S REQUEST TO STOP CALIFORNIA FROM COUNTING MAIL BALLOTS FROM ALLEGED NONCITIZENS

Voting works, voting is important.

marine corps boards crossing out their instructions "expel trans marines" and writing in "we keep this trans marine" is, frankly, a great example of what it means that a society is more than just its government

If you're in an early voting state, did you vote yet?

My unpopular but persistent belief is that almost everything in our lives has gotten better and we’re weirdly incapable of seeing it.

Treasonous fuck.

Fucking cowards.

"Bombshell" Dude everyone already knew Graham was gay, this is such a nothing burger.

Conservative and Republican's obsession with girl cock was bound to start biting them in the ass sooner or later; especially in the current climate.

As one of the candidates featured in these polls - the infamous one in late June that showed me plummeting into single digits (which was at odds with our internals) - here's the impact of this "experiment"

🧵 Early voting has begun in Colorado, and the outcome has important implications for the state’s democracy. An election denier is running to oversee state elections, and a GOP-backed attempt to heighten ID requirements for voting is on the ballot. Here’s what to know 👇

It's painful that my district is projected to lose to Rs right now while we're also favored to win a TX senate seat or even a tossup in fucking KS. votehub.com/2026-forecas...

He's really ramping up his '28 run. This guy is much more dangerous than Trump in every way. He's smarter, more articulate, and ideologically driven. This is the actual fascist threat imo.

Terrible. What an icon.

Thousands of Americans came together at No Kings events to make their voices heard—what if we took that energy one step further? Find your highest-impact action at swingleft.org/no-kings, from phone banking and canvassing with Ground Truth to writing letters to voters with Vote Forward.

Complaining that trained economists won’t engage in extended debate with people with hammer and sickle user names isn’t really evidence of malfeasance

It’s the stupid economy, stupid.

Vote.

What I consider "best" in terms of craft is hardly ever my "favorite". Sure, there's some overlap, but I'm not seeking a novel that follows every rule, puts prose over character, or appeals to the more academic reader (she says as an English major). I want something beautiful, messy, or melancholy.

ultimately i have come to believe that the true audience of "kamala is for they/them, trump is for you" is not the median voter but centrist political pundits

I dunno seems bad, guys. www.reuters.com/business/ai-...

Bluesky unironically shares almost as much boomer meme slop as Facebook sometimes.

Ukraine on the front lines defending democracy and civil rights world-wide by bombing Russian bot farms.

Hot take: Wealth taxes are actually dumb and not the best way to tax higher income brackets. If you want better government funding, wealth taxes are just not the best way to do it. It's literally just populist slop.

When @theonion.com becomes real life. This was six months ago.

The DSA, Schrödinger’s socialists. It’s like this all the time. Official DSA National organs and people will write pro-Fidel stuff and do other praxis posting. But when asked, DSA-ers run away from the label, suggest it’s all fear mongering, and plead smol-beanism. And I like plenty of DSA pols!

Wynn's Law remains undefeated.

Bring my queen back.

What a terribly, painfully stupid idea.

I just realized that @weratedogs.com hasn't posted in 2 months 😭 Please don't abandon me!

29 days until the midterm elections. Make sure you're registered to vote and verify where your polling locations are. If your state offers mail-in ballots, have a plan to vote in person regardless. www.vote.org/am-i-registe...

Whoever the Dem nominee is for '28, they should openly commit to Jack Smith as the next AG.

There are so many people online and in the political media sphere that are eternally stuck in 2016 politics. It's been 10 years, guys.

Boomers in 2003: "You can't trust anything you read online. Wikipedia can be edited by anybody! Only trust the experts." Boomers in 2026: "I will never take another vaccine because the elite cabal pharmaceutical companies are using it for mass mind-control to make money. I read it on Facebook."

"I used to be a Democrat, please buy my book and give me money."

The full trailer for You Can See Everything is out today. And my first thought is that it should be required that Nathan Fielder film for 48 hrs at every tech CEO’s home.

Thanks, I hate it. I don't spend almost any time in Discord. Really only engage with a single server, and only because it's a politics org that operates out of Discord exclusively. I guess I need to take some time and think if I want to continue to do that.

NYT is reporting that influencers are shaping political opinions, sometimes they're not telling you the truth, and they are getting paid. I wrote a book about this two years ago. 🙃 www.nytimes.com/2026/09/22/u...

This polling has more-or-less remained the same for a while. All the crazy people losing their minds in the replies here are the same people who abdicated their votes in '24 and contributed to the situation we're in now.

I'm so excited to see this. Cregger has yet to disappoint me.

I think it has to be Diablo II for me. Or FFVII.

I'm looking for new-ish horror book recommendations. What's your favorite horror novel/novella of the past five years? What author are you obsessed with? Inquiring minds want to know. #horror #booksky

The only thing worse than extremists who advocate for disgusting and violent things are extremists who disguise their advocacy of these things in polite and academic language.
