Screening. First in Chapel Hill. This Thursday. See you there. www.chapelhillpubliclibrary.org/event/power-...
missed opportunity, heels!
College Gameday announced it'll go to Minnesota-Indiana next Saturday. I heard through the grapevine the Gameday production crew was actively sourcing places in Chapel Hill to host a Halloween party... Clearly the UNC football loss last night scrapped plans for the show to be at Carolina.
FWIW, Cheesecake Factory is a big hit with NBA players.
@benjaminahr.mobi @greatesttrek.com with the Cheesecake Factory in the news, this is Factory Seconds’ moment!

A couple who mistakenly received a racist text message at an apartment viewing this summer is now suing the real estate company, the broker and the landlord for discrimination. gothamist.visitlink.me/kHvlEO
Convicted rapist doesn’t have an issue with child rape.
Trump: "Why wouldn't you listen to a mother that says that?" Monica Alba: "She stayed with a stepfather who was charged with raping his stepdaughter in 1978, sir." Trump: "You just keep talking." Alba: "I am answering you, sir." Trump: "I don't know anything about stepfathers."

it’s not too late for N.C. voters on active military duty or voters abroad (like college students, travelers or expatriates) to apply for an absentee ballot by Nov 2 see www.ncsbe.gov/voting/milit... -process even allows voter registration !
Stop the presses, time to update the dictionaries to add a new photo next to the definition of the word “loser”

While we're talking about voting, be sure to check out @ncrabbithole.com's latest article about a North Carolina resident who voted abesentee--from Antarctica! With an appearance by @gercohen.bsky.social. www.ncrabbithole.com/p/one-person...
Wednesday was another good #earlyvoting day in Orange County (NC), with the number of votes still well above 2022, although not quite as much of an increase as earlier days. Second week of early voting begins today!

Wrote a thing about how it doesn't really matter whether Zuck shut down the No Kings Insta on purpose or if it was an accident. The problem is relying on him in the first place. www.techdirt.com/2026/10/20/a...

Wow, this may be the most disgraceful political attack I’ve ever seen.
🚨 VILE: Vivek Ramaswamy’s new attack ad against Amy Acton features her estranged mother, who stayed married to the man who sexually abused her daughter at age 12, even after his arrest. Now even conservatives are calling the ad disgusting. The horrifying story behind Vivek’s attack:

Oddly, since June i’ve been very much opposed to paying taxes for public schools. I’m old, why should I pay to educate other people’s children?
“I’m old. I’ve paid my home off,” said Ray Warner, a 72-year-old Akron resident. “Why would I pay property tax?” Across the country, homeowners are asking the same question and revolting against property taxes at a scale not seen in a half century.

Great North Carolina early voting website assembled by @peark.es ncearly.peark.es
@cclaytonr.bsky.social @donniebarnes.com a few years ago, weren’t we planning to get drinks one evening? We should probably get on that
My deep thought on the proposed Carrboro-Chapel Hill police merger is that running a town is expensive, I’m not sure why two communities with very similar priorities have separate town governments. Lots of duplicative services creating significant inefficiencies.

The only poll that counts. This record-breaking Day 1 turnout by NC Dems in the face of lackluster voting by gopers augers a blow-out of unprecedented size IF WE KEEP THIS UP THROUGH ELECTION DAY. Republicans are ashamed to show their faces at the polls this year, while Dems are ashamed *not to*.
In North Carolina's first day of Early Voting yesterday, Dems & unaffiliated voters showed up and cast nearly twice as many ballots as they did in the first day of EV in 2022. In contrast, Republicans stayed home, and cast *fewer* ballots than in 2022. Sure looks like an angry blue wave a'comin'.
