Waiting…anxiously.
The polls are open in Israel for several more hours, and the voter turnout rate is already the highest its been since 1969. Total vote has already exceeded the last election. I say again: this is *with* several hours still left to vote. Really, really not a great sign for Netanyahu.

Just a reminder that this is the guy whose loss triggered panic in the global financial markets. Not just an ecocidal fascist who wanted to burn down the Amazon, but a snivelling little gangster. Just in case we were still labouring under the delusion that this was a good system.
Flávio Bolsonaro may have fled the country to get away from federal police but if that's the case he may also be trying to get away from all his criminal allies who now no doubt are realizing that he 1. failed to deliver, 2. is a huge coward, 3. sure knows a lot of shit

Send him to The Hague. Netanyahu needs to be tried for crimes against humanity.
Voter participation by noon today in Israel was already at its highest level since 1973. This election is on track to have the highest voter participation in Israel's history. Not a great sign for Netanyahu. People don't typically vote at record levels when they're happy with how things are going.

Vile stuff. Perfectly clear that Robert Kennedy Jr. is a fascist and trying to position himself as Trump’s heir apparent. I just want to take this moment to shout out all the post-left contrarian types who embraced him as some kind of independent voice for truth. Good job, losers.
RFK: "There's five hundred million Arabs in the world. And yet they don't produce science. They don't win the Nobel Prize. They don't win the Fields Prize. They don't win the Wolf Prize. They don't produce literature."

RFK talks about autistic and Arabic people the exact same way. He assumes they are not capable of ordinary or extraordinary achievements because of who they are. He considers them sub-human because they are not like him. This makes it plain that his is a white supremacist eugenicist project.

When a worker wears an Amazon vest, drives an Amazon van and delivers on an Amazon-controlled route, but Amazon denies they work for the company — that's exploitation.
If it looks like an Amazon delivery and drives like an Amazon delivery, then it's an Amazon delivery, right? Not according to Amazon. Big companies like Amazon have built a vast network of subcontractors who deliver their packages while shielding them from accountability.

I can finally tell you all about this project that has consumed my life. I am so excited to announce this searchable dark money database aimed at exposing political influence networks. This is just the first phase of the project too. We have big plans.

“.. He has to throw dirt on it if it doesn’t come out his way, period,” said Jonnie Smith, 69, a human resources manager from Johnson City, Tennessee, who typically votes for Republicans but opposes Trump. “He’s shown us that every time he loses.” www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Despite an influence campaign from the United States trying to convince Alberta to secede from Canada and join the US as a 51st state, Albertans have rejected the idea in the #Albertexit referendum.
The 12 who remained in the room were the staff & clean up crew from the convention centre. #NoToTheNine
We’ve known this Alberta lawyer was a dolt ever since his deep involvement with the protofascist KuKluxKonvoy. Last night only about 12 lost souls stayed to hear him attempt to spin his latest disaster, being the utter failure of his Alberta separatist project.

I recall shortly after El-Sayed winning the nomination & there was a gaggle of Dems who were like “ok, you’ve won the nomination and now it’s time to tone it down…” yeah, no. This was an absolute master class. And that sad walk of shame…oh Tommy boy…
This is Tommy. Tommy had a question about my allegiances. Listen to the end to hear about his.

Holy shit. Every single Democrat: This is the message. This right here. This is the whole ass pitch the voters in the weeks before the election.
Ossoff: "It's the most corrupt administration of all time & everybody knows it. While the crook president & his crook family rake in billions from all over the world, you pay more for everything... they lied us into war & spent most of the last year covering up for the world's most famous pedophile"
Kulldorf & Bhattachaya are absolute vile POS who have grifted loads of 💵 through their disinformation. So much harm. So intentional. #TheDisinformationers #TheGrifters
This video from Professor Dave Explains is so, so good. Jay Bhattacharya is one of the worst spreaders of public health misinformation in America. He’s a right-wing political operative working for the anti-science agenda of right-wing business interests. youtu.be/BgdaieZ43YM?...

“ … Russia disseminates disinformation by multiple channels, such as so-called Grey media, “which blurs the line between journalism & propaganda, makes it challenging for audiences to discern between unbiased reporting & manipulated information.” Great read from @geoffypjohnston.bsky.social

So grateful that I have only wanted as “dumb-as-possible” devices. No Alexa. Ever. My fridge needs to stay cold, not be smart. My TV needs to show me movies, not solve math problems. Roombas are where they got me, since that’s the thing I want robots to do for me, the cleaning. 🤞🏼
