So true. We need to look at how massively AES and Bush beat expectations.
Emily Gorcenski@emily.gorcen.ski · 12h agoLot of progressive wins over the Democratic establishment last night. Let’s cut now to live footage of how the Democratic establishment is engaging with any of the lessons to be learned

KimBo@zapperfan7.bsky.social · 3d agoEvolved Chimp You can carry it onto a commercial flight as luggage. You set it down in moving water. And immediately, it generates enough electricity to power a dozen homes for five years. Germany just solved off-grid power without pouring a single ounce of concrete.
I would love it if progressives could finally put this dumb conspiracy theory to bed. It sold books and docs, but it was always based on convenient lies.
Jake Berman@lostsubways.com · 3d agothis is not true. there was no conspiracy. it didn't matter whether the streetcars were publicly owned (seattle, detroit) or private (los angeles, atlanta). a thread (because i wrote a whole-ass book on this): 1/?
Putting a request on Fiverr offering $20/Iranian concession achieved
Shipwreck@shipwreck75.bsky.social · 3d agoA senior officer in US Central Command’s (CENTCOM) intelligence branch emailed a broad group of military analysts seeking “new creative and unconventional ways to pressure and punish Iran.” A second source indicated a similar request went out the prior week.
Are we putting up odds that Miller tries to nuke Moreno on the way out the door?
Josh Marshall@joshtpm.bsky.social · 4d agomany thoughts, reactions to this. but i think the clearest is that Miller is, politically, toast.
I'm in the same boat. I'm happy to have a job that's better than my pop had, toiling in the Bitcoin mines from sunrise to sunset, always worrying about developing crypto-lung.
David_j_roth@davidjroth.bsky.social · 6d agoGot a good job down at the Data Center. I work on the line, and it's hard work but it's honest and the wage is fair; my family and I are grateful for it. I rivet the word "absolutely" onto the little apologies that chatbots do when they misunderstand a prompt.
What a terrible day to realize Red Lobster should have a drive-thru.
PETA@peta.org · last wk.We put a human “lobster” on a plate outside Maine Lobster Festival to force people to see the victim behind the tradition🦞💔
To clarify, the cop had a son who was a bicycle that a woman shot while yelling at Mamdani.

I think FIFA would prefer a different model: + Ten 8 team groups, top four play additional matches to no end + VAR based on Kalshi user votes, results sponsored by Lays + Offside calls by the most powerful person to call Infantino's cell at that time
Mr. Nick Beaudrot@nbeaudrot.bsky.social · 3w agoI liked a lot of @ryanrosenblatt.bsky.social's "next world cup ideas" + Eight 6 team groups, top 3 move on, #1 seeds get a bye + VAR by challenge for any slow review + Offside is "1 nongoalie defender" not "2 defenders" 1/2 open.substack.com/pub/thinkout...
Overheard at a sports bar in Omaha tonight: "He can f*** strippers but Clinton just got a b*** j**. I voted for Trump because he just seems to get stuff done, but trickle-down economics just doesn't work. Worst regret of my life."
People want to dunk on this, but I think it seriously tarnishes both FIFA's and the US's reputations for fair play and respect for the rule of law.
And my family didn't like it when the Smiths and Joneses arrived here, so suck it up.
‼️ It’s *not* 1789‼️@itisnot1789.bsky.social · last mo.If everyone here (or a majority) had names like Abdul El-Sayed . . . I would not want to live here. So, whatever that makes me . . . it's how I feel about it. If you're going to make America your home, you should adopt an 'American' name.
Sir they're saying you'd be mentioned in the same breath as Jefferson and Adams
Despite all the bad economic news, it will still be a long time before people in this region associate it with Trump's policies

Mark Chadbourn@chadbourn.bsky.social · last mo.New corruption announcement: Trump on the Medal of Honor: “I see my two beautiful sons sitting. I think I am going to give one to myself and one to them, and we will have a threesome. “I will give them the Congressional Medal of Honor for something.”
My uncle's words last night as he succumbed to treatable cancer were, "I think Donald's got a hand on the filter situation. Were it that I could witness..."
Stephen Nuñez@socio-steve.bsky.social · 2mo agoI feel like this is a great story for us...shows Trump to be stupid, incompetent, corrupt and also laser-focused on stuff nobody else gives a shit about.
4D chess. Trump has no choice now but to scrap the plan.
Buttadeus@thewanderingjew.bsky.social · 2mo agoDEAR GOD WHY HILLARY? WHY?!
Great. Non-soccer knowers having opinions.
Chris Hayes@chrislhayes.bsky.social · 2mo agoThe "hydration break" really is a perfect American capitalist innovation: a nakedly commercial play to insert more ad revenue into a game that doesn't have ads anywhere else in the world, all under the guise of some humanitarian interest in the players' wellbeing.
