Pokemon GO to the Polls PAC

I don't think you could look anymore serious if you were trying to catch a human baby

Mark Suckserberg at rigging elections is what they should call him, amirite?

Last summer, Scientific American's owners were stalking the site, making sure it wasn't being too critical of Trump. This summer, the magazine was sold and gutted. I wrote about it for The Nation www.thenation.com/article/soci...

Trick or treat biiiiiitches, woohoo!

recalling that the actual quote from Max Weber about "slow boring" is 180 degrees away from limp dishrag centrism. he explicitly says you have to be a hero who reaches for the impossible

I feel like on some level Yglesias is just an idiot who thinks he is smarter than everyone, but he also sorta understands that he needs to continually get dunked on online in order to have any kind of relevance.

Mostly just a Turturro fan because of his amazing acting, but it seems like he also might be a mfing delight as a person?

boy I sure hope the AI bubble pops in a big way, and soon

oligarch media all the way down and the democrats wont invest in any. we're fucked. www.semafor.com/article/10/2...

there’s no middle ground position on this. either musk is forcibly rooted out of government infrastructure or every war proceeds at the whims and dictates of a generational buffoon

I continue to think that originalists like Justice Alito have gotten off waaay too easily for uplifting a legal method that literally emerged as a backlash to * Brown v. Board * Like what are we doing here? (A: being racist, pretending that's being objective) ballsandstrikes.org/legal-cultur...

Jan is CBS’s legal correspondent. She gave the puff piece interview to Alito on his book. She’s criticized people who criticize the Court too much / in certain ways. She’s a perfect case study in why some mainstream/legacy media press coverage of SCOTUS is broken, bad, and misleading.

This is Tommy. Tommy had a question about my allegiances. Listen to the end to hear about his.

Enjoyed this read from @seeratsohi.bsky.social on Angel Reese ahead of Dream@Valkyries tomorrow. www.theringer.com/2026/10/16/w...

this goes incredible places and I love everyone involved

Solid list right here

Excerpts from Michael Lewis on DOGE (Guardian article). 1. Gavin Kliger, white nationalist, refused to shake hands with the Black IRS staffer who briefed him on privacy issues. Or pay attention. Kliger now has a defense start-up valued at 1.4B thanks to DOGE. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

is there anyone thinking/writing about the actual mechanics of disentangling the US government from elon musk?

We are witnessing levels of passive voice cop language unprecedented in modern times

my main comment is, do they remember who won the battle of the alamo bsky.app/profile/dber...

I think it is as much the marketing and the battery recall as anything else. The earlier Bolts were very popular. I have one and it absolutely slaps.

Here's Laura Rutledge explaining that the secret service will not interfere with the radio communications at this game immediately followed by the broadcast audio going to hell

side note but: you keep Madiba's name out of your god damned mouth

James Dean was in three movies. Three. None of them were great. You guys can try to build your legacies through a lifetime of meaningful achievements if you want. I’m going to continue focusing on what really matters: looking awesome

newsom and bonta let paramount threatening to pull out of california torpedo the entire lawsuit and this is going to be an abject disaster for everyone - including california, where they'll gut jobs anyway what a fucking disgrace

What are we even doing here. What does any of this have to do with the real dangers presented by this merger.

the problem for Dem consultants is that they haven't properly internalized that tech - not the rank and file, but the guys at the top - has completely turned against them and should now be treated as an implacable political enemy you can't win them back by playing nice on policy and you shouldn't

I think this is correct, and I've been thinking a lot about what replaces all this stuff. If it is going away, you'd think the institutional players would have some idea of what might take its place. But they don't seem to have a vision for that, or any interest in it. It's private equity mindset.
