who should be the mayor of LA is not an academic question. it is a real one that will determine the lives of people who will live under the power of that mayor. There are Angelenos who's lives will be literally thrown in a garbage can and burned if karen bass wins.

I know there's a lot going on but I feel it should probably be more of an above-the-fold story that members of Congress released a thoroughly documented report directly accusing the president of the United States of being a serial rapist.

Ding ding fucking ding.

It turns out punishing coup plotters actually is an effective deterrent!

*BOLSONARO: FEDERAL POLICE REQUESTED I GIVE THEM MY PASSPORT

Never forget that fascism lives for aesthetics and attention. They have no depth. Take the stage, take your colors, solidarize with those they hate, don't engage with them, don't give them oxygen, and make fury your dance partner make it shine, laugh, take children, MAKE THE FIGHT WORTH ITSELF

I need to stress this part: Instead of letting our anger lead us, we focused on work and joy. Anger creates rifts and makes us easy to bait. But they can't take the joy of your effort when you're focused on doing your part and lifting each other up. Winning or losing, it feels worth doing.

My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.

My pal Danielle Koenig shared that her father Walter Koenig passed away last night at age 90. A performer whose kindness and warmth shone through the screen. He will be well remembered.

Another stunning defeat for a Trump-aligned right-wing leader in Europe. Serbian students voted out their authoritarian leadership after months of protests against corruption, taking their fight from the streets to the ballot box and turning people power into political power.

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.

None of us should forget this. Meta should be subjected to corporate death penalty and permanently broken up into small pieces.

GOP does nothing but gin up culture wars. Meanwhile: — GOP slashed SNAP benefits to 5+ million Americans, forcing them to turn to food banks. — Trump's tariffs and war spurred inflation, making it more expensive to eat at The Cheesecake Factory. Prices are now ~13% higher than when he took office.

This applies to the anti-Islamic signaling too - some overt, some subtler. All bad. Poisonous. Yes, NOT ALL Democrats do this. But too many. It’s a road to failure! And it’s deeply immoral.

Anti-trans Democrats are spreading poison when we can least afford it, during elections in this ongoing fascist takeover. As a strategy, it’s a recipe for failure. As a moral stand, it’s reprehensible. PS I’m the father of young trans woman and I’ll never forgive anyone who makes her life harder.

The education system been under attack since white parents found out their children been getting a proper education in school and then coming home and refusing to accept their bullshit.

Here's some spooky news: Thanks in part to Trump's Iran War and his tariffs, even Halloween is more expensive. -Mondelez Gummy candy pack prices are up 39% -Hershey seasonal peanut butter cups are up 23% -Ferrero chocolate packs are up 19% Trump's economy is all tricks, no treats.

Can confirm that this is a real trailer of the Mass Effect game that BioWare was developing up until its closure yesterday www.reddit.com/r/masseffect...

Remember: If your vote didn't matter, billionaires wouldn't be spending their fortunes trying to buy our elections. Stay calm, support good candidates, do whatever you can to get out the vote, and vote as soon as you can. Don't let Big Money win.

Elon Musk boosted the lie that James Talarico stayed at a mental hospital. Meta suspended No Kings’ Instagram account during nationwide actions. Staff at the Ellison-owned CBS News were reportedly told to tie Abdul El-Sayed to the Muslim Brotherhood and 9/11. Democracy dies in billionaire hands.

I had to go on Twitter to confirm this was real because Ship Awesome Games In A Weekend having a hand with six fingers was so on the nose I was about to pass out

Outta my sight, scrub

From me, more than 5 years ago: www.ms.now/opinion/rahm...

Goddamn did I need to hear someone with actual influence and power say this right now

US garment workers helped pioneer multi-ethnic labor unions, which united people across racial, religious, gender, linguistic, and cultural divides. Also native-born citizens and immigrants. I think about that sometimes when I see people suggest such divides are unbridgeable.

it would actually be tremendously helpful if elon decides to publicly pick a fight with democrats to the point that they can’t help but impose real consequences on him

Let them have the damn candy

100% this and proud to have @lydiakauppi.bsky.social on our team.

This one's maybe a little on the ling side, but trust me, it's worth it. I've cried reading it multiple times. (1/3)

I am a huge disaster nerd (hi @nameshiv.bsky.social and @rahaeli.bsky.social) and my first obsession as a kid was the Titanic it really cannot be overstated how absolutely heroic the Carpathia was once they learned what had happened to the Titanic, this is worth your time

we gotta bring back shame, man society doesn’t work real well without consequences for being an enormous piece of shit in public
