sorry to ruin your fun but his whole stoner nice guy routine is an act. Scooby's not even his real name, it's Gideon, and the only reason he can doss about in a mystery van is because his family, the D'Oubay-Doux, made a fortune in the East India Company in the 1700s. educate yourself.

The Lula election may be the most significant of our time. Brazil will be the vanguard against an even more apocalyptic environmental deterioration. Overjoyed that the Amazon remains steadfast.

The USA is the country now to which failed coup plotters in the global fascist power grab movement flee

So I'm not gonna quote that stupid bullshit thing from RFK, but have you noticed that white supremacists insist that white culture is superior because they're individualists and Asians are collectivists and then they pull this shit? White supremacy is a form of collectivism. It's just a shitty one.

Two years ago we were all getting ready for Girl Boss White House. I just... Just go vote.

A reminder, because it is almost that time of year: More children are killed by cars on Halloween than any other day of the year, by far. www.vox.com/future-perfe... If you're a parent, I hope you'll do what you can to keep kids safe. If you're driving on Saturday, PLEASE exercise extra caution.

If you're a D or D-adjacent voter in NC and haven't voted yet, you have the chance to help deliver truly historic curb-stomping to the R supermajorities in the NCGA Please go vote 😄

This kind of vituperative racism cannot go unanswered This is not ignorance This man is evil, evil, evil

There are only two explanations for the NYT's habit of presenting GOP operatives and donors as true swing voters: 1. Their reporters and editors are somehow incapable of running a simple Google searches, showing just a staggering level of journalistic incompetence 2. They want to the GOP to win

Since Alaska adopted top-four primaries and #RankedChoiceVoting: - State legislative general elections have seen tighter margins of victory on average - The % of legislative contests featuring 3+ candidates has more than doubled - Voters have replaced incumbent legislators more often

sightline.orgPost-Reform, Alaskan Elections Are More Competitive | Sightline InstituteThat’s good news for Alaskans of all political stripes—and an example for voters elsewhere of how to get more choice at their own ballot box.

If I walked into our Cheesecake Shop and found the focus of the business was not on selling desserts, I’d be vexed. It would be like Liquorland turning out to be principally a furniture superstore with a sideline of beers and wines to enjoy in your comfy new armchair or at a nice outdoor setting

I live in a rural town and, like, I don't know how to tell you this, but the girls play on the boys team and vice versa all the time because otherwise we don't have enough players for a game and it's literally always fine so stop being weirdos about kids sports and just let trans kids play.

I don't know that there is a template or a "secret sauce" or a clear-cut lesson to take from this. But if there is one it's the idea of treating social media as the hostile territory that it is, of actually acting like you are a participant in propaganda warfare and not like a consumer.

I say this with my full chest: EAT SHIT

If only Lula had appealed to the conservative right wing of voters who were never going to vote for him, then he would’ve lost bravely. Didn’t he learn anything from neoliberal politicians around the world?

MATER MISERICORDIAE I can't believe my eyes. I had faith - in Brasil - but doom was alreadynsubsuming my heart. YES!!!

In his acceptance speech, Lula says he will work to regulate digital platforms in Brazil. “Digital crimes must be dealt with like real-life crimes.” This comes after Meta directly interfered with the Brazilian elections, favouring Flávio Bolsonaro.

This is such a canard. Between 2020-2025, Seattle added the entire population of unincorporated King County to its own population

Ryan Packer@typewriteralley.bsky.social

On KUOW this week former AG Rob McKenna lamented the low availability of housing stock in unincorporated King County and suggested potential expansion of the urban growth boundary to open up land. Unincorporated KC is meeting its growth target & most growth is happening in cities. This is GOOD.

We are watching a coup d’état attempt unfold in real time in Brazil. I’m consumed by desperation.

This criminal suspension of public transport, of course, affects the working class the most, those who overwhelmingly vote for Lula and who have to carefully plan their workdays to be able to get to the polls. If the buses don’t come, there are no hours, no minutes to spare. Those are votes gone.

I haven’t slept a full night in three weeks ahead of the polls opening in Brazil today. I might be shouting into a void here, but if you can spare a few seconds to send good energy towards our elections today and for the largest country in South America to beat fascism, please do so. 🇧🇷

I have been to a Cheesecake Factory once. For anyone who hasn't been, think: "Rococo Maximalism meets Menu by Thomas Pynchon"

i have never been inside of a cheese cake factory and did not know what they looked like until about two years ago. this is not a reflection of my opinion of cheese cake factory, i don't have one, i've never been, just an odd fact of how 'mainstream' american life dipped me by.

Mmm hmmmm Everything the DOJ is doing right now is a naked and out-in-the-open play to stop votes from being counted When more people vote, Democrats win

The U.S. Department of Justice informed King County Elections Director Julie Wise this week that the administration is sending election monitors for the Nov. 3 midterms. It’s unclear what role federal election monitors will play or how many there will be in King County on Election Day.

Wow, greens are really outperforming in BC over 2024. Ranked choice voting now!!!

Jens von Bergmann@jensvb.bsky.social

672,639 votes counted, 1,933 of 7,361 polls reported, 32 of 93 ridings called. Still early, in 2024 there were a total of 2.1M votes. Looking at what has come in there is a lot of orange below the diagonal. And a lot of blue above.
