im never gonna talk shit about another editor unless i've seen the dailies and understand how bad the ingredients they were cooking with were. sometimes an awkward, fucked up scene is the editor heroically saving something that was botched on set bsky.app/profile/the1...

and the EDITING 🤦🏻‍♀️

I mean this sincerely: I think pro Israel people really need to begin internalizing that this is not a fringe opinion anymore and in fact is very statistically likely to be the average view of any brown Democratic candidate for office or any candidate under the age of 50

There is now set to be at least nine democratic socialists in Congress. Donovan McKinney – alongside Melat Kiros, Claire Valdez, Darializa Avila Chevalier, Brad Lander, and Chris Rabb – will join Bernie Sanders, Rashida Tlaib, and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

everyone at the banks should go to prison for the bullshit they pumped on that ipo

i should add- breaking the collarbone of a baby who is the granddaughter of a REPUBLICAN US SENATOR is not a bridge too far for republicans. max miller is the villain in this story but bernie moreno looks like a feckless loser, allowing his party to carry on this way. what a pathetic bunch.

American Jewish communal institutions have been pulling this move repeatedly, and rather than undermine the efficacy or legitimacy of whatever thing they're challenging, they're just making people mad at Jews qua Jews. It's unbelievably counterproductive to fighting antisemitism.

chat, it is bad when your last campaign event is disavowed by the host because they didn't realize it was your campaign event and fundamentally oppose what you're all about

I have, with my own eyes, watched my tax dollars in the form of missiles as they hit buildings inhabited by civilians. I'd much prefer subsidizing a grocery story I don't use.

Opinion: Mamdani's idea may sound appealing, but it's NYC taxpayers who will take the hit, subsidizing discounts they may never even use.

"the voters in my district prioritized a different issue" yea, we didn't support genocide

Dan Goldman is having an argument with Ro Khanna. Goldman is alluding to why he lost his primary, but isn’t saying it directly.

I worked for New York’s largest medical center at the start of the pandemic. There were morgue trucks on the streets. They set up emergency medical tents in Central Park. Healthcare worker colleagues died. It is horrific that RFK Jr is on national TV lying that ICUs were empty.

It's absolutely insane we've somehow let the Covid recriminations debate become like "why didn't we reopen in person schools before there was a vaccine" and not "why did none of the trump guys go to jail for stealing PPE from New York hospitals in March 2020"

A good commissioner steps in now before every WNBA game becomes a rightwing performance space, like school board meetings were during peak CRT. You just have to throw the hammer down on this. Do not give them an inch.

Rep. Max Miller: "My former wife has claimed that during a custody exchange at my home that day, I assaulted her…If I had assaulted her, would she have offered to cook me dinner six days later?"

I think it also revealed just how quickly a bunch of otherwise very hard problems can be to solve with global collective action. The fuckin Ganga was running clear water for the only time in my lifetime because for 2 weeks nobody threw garbage in it. The canals in Venice had fish.

Covid lockdowns demonstrated, in a deeply imperfect way, the possibility of large-scale social solidarity for a higher cause. That is a prime reason why so many powerful people want us to run screaming away from them into the comforting arms of selfish individualist competition.

The truth is Israel is given special consideration and treatment because it is our unsinkable aircraft carrier in the Middle East and Americas closest ally. It is our attack dog and America allows Israel to do what it does because our government likes what it does.

People potentially subject to the nyc pied-à-terre tax are being treated with 1% of the administrative hostility of SNAP and Medicaid applicants, and they’re throwing 100x the fit

Bluesky needs to start conducting forum raids. I think we could marshall enough they/them INTJs to completely terraform Threads

This guy would win in a landslide if he ran for office. I promise you there are SO MANY voters waiting for the "Were going through every file and we will find all of you" candidate to take on the New Gestapo. Establishment Dems will never hold anyone accountable. They had their chance and blew it

also, if your proposed alternative to protesting is to “make clear that we stand with Israelis like former IDF Chief of Staff Gadi Eisenkot, former prime ministers Naftali Bennett and Yair Lapid” who all oppose a Palestinian state, describing yourself as a liberal Zionist is just window dressing

If this is really true, I feel like you were not that motivated to protest in the first place. www.jta.org/2026/07/31/i...

Like I've said, Democrats should be running charismatic moderates in swing districts like Francesca Hong who can appeal to Republicans, instead of radical extremists like Blue Dog Democrats whose policy positions are so unpopular with the average moderate voter.

Ken Klippenstein@kenklippenstein.bsky.social · 6d ago

Fox News host tells Francesca Hong, "I just want to compliment you...Trump voters say she's very affable, they kind of like what you have to say." "It's going to be an interesting race."

“i got dumped because i am a crank” is an extremely funny thing to announce to people

I'm looking at this and I'm just like, man, I probably couldn't have told you who Haley Stevens was a week ago A random Rep. ~800 miles away from me? Usually not on my radar But then she had to go and be a racist bitch If she had just done nothin, I woulda had no opinion!

Here are some of the songs I've been listening to this summer. It starts with a song Michelle and I love by Glen Hansard, a great musician who passed tragically this week. Our hearts go out to his family.

The idea that the league, teams, coaches, and players should remain silent in the face of this absolute discriminatory bullshit encouraged by bigoted statements from a player is bananas to me. Everyone should be shouting this down. You want an welcoming and inclusive fanbase? PROVE IT.

99% of the time, when someone accuses you of selective outrage, it’s a way of politically demobilizing you and shutting you up “Why are you angry about data centers instead of fast fashion” isn’t about making you care about fast fashion. It’s about shutting you up about data centers And visa versa

they call it the razzle-dazzle
