right. given the numbers, “how to win back the working class” should be as much about care and service workers as hard hats. and yet.

I’m starting a petition to ask @patblanchfield.bsky.social to return the lathe to Heaven.

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy. I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

Lavos, the alien monster intent on destroying all life, has emerged from beneath the planet's surface to endorse Andrew Cuomo in the New York City mayoral race. "Cuomo has the experience and character necessary to lead," said Lavos, while fire rained from the sky

Not only are you moral cretins, you’re losers too.

While there's no moral equivalency between those two sides—the demonization by the right is much worse—both extremes are wrong and add more heat than light. Dems should express disgust at how both sides have weaponized the issue, signaling that we want to resolve, not exploit.

There were a lot of complaints yesterday that Schakowski shouldn’t be challenged by @katmabu.bsky.social because the congresswoman has good politics. But is it good to be governed by an ailing gerontocracy?

NYC Councilwoman Alexa Avilés: “They are coming for all of us and it is us who will protect each other…they will not come for our trans siblings; we’ve got your back. They will not come for Palestinians; we’ve got your back.”

Friends, let’s focus on the primary for this quisling.

Dear media: Please do not waste time hyperventilating about this dumb comment. It’s intended to be a distraction from all of the damaging actions he’s taking. Focus on those.

more and more these days, I find myself thinking that you can accept the discipline of your political goals or you can accept the discipline of your resentments.

Julian Sanchez@normative.bsky.social

Seeing a lot of “But they don’t deserve…” And no, of course they don’t. What the fuck does that have to do with anything? The house is on fire. Pass a bucket to whoever wants to put it out. You can remind them what an ass they’ve been later.
