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

Progressives have long tried to remind centrists that AIPAC is primarily funded by MAGA supporters and primarily spends against liberals and leftists alike in Democratic primaries. Now this crystalizes it even more.
An actually underrated potential positive for Dems in light of Abdul’s victory is that it gives traditionally centrist or otherwise poor Dems on Palestine on an easy out for polarizing against AIPAC and pro-Israel politics— they’re trying to cost Dems the Senate.
if it was a guard rails problem it would be one of those "we're thinking about taking the concrete barriers between the driving lane and the bike lane out because drivers keep crashing into them" ones
It’s not a guardrails problem but rather a fascism problem.
No you don’t understand. I was telling YOU to vote blue no matter who. I, on the other hand, will be sitting this one out.
One thing that makes me feel insane is that the primary use of AI is to mass produce the pornography that they are trying to make it illegal for humans to make. But also, the AI isn't even good at it. None of it is hot!
Some people are just going to have to straight up get over it.
Still true btw for those who have an odd and totally not racist obsession with bringing up Dearborn or Uncommitted every day
Do centrist Dems realize that the incentive structure they're establishing by admonishing one of the few major Arab American figures who unequivocally endorsed Harris despite nothing being conceded on Gaza? The lesson for those Arabs will be to uh, not do that again.
The entire interview was like that. Fetterman is not well.
Wolf Blitzer: Why is Israel, another country, your red line right now, this is what your critics are saying, rather than a domestic issue that impacts Americans' everyday lives? John Fetterman, visibly confused throughout the entire interview: Yeah, absolutely.
Smoking is making a comeback because we don’t have a surgeon general yet. Packs of cigarettes talking about “surgeon generals warning” girl WHOSE warning?
Wizards AND teeth?? New Dwarf Fortress art for the upcoming Myth & Magic update by @loreydoor.bsky.social 🧙♂️🦷
It's complicated. Posting before and afters & talking about how sick she looks can backfire because these are competitive mental illnesses. But the uncomfy truth no one wants to acknowledge is some people defend her in bad faith because they enjoy seeing thin, frail-looking white women.
not to be pop culture brained but it is kind of crazy how libfem shit is being weaponized against ppl who are like holy shit Ariana Grande is about to die. fellas is it anti-woman to express concern about the health of a woman and the high mortality rates of eating disorders
Abdul El-Sayed won the Michigan Democratic primary. Just posting this plainly for other west coast ppl waking up to a ton of headlines and posts about how he sort of actually really lost bc the polls were wrong about how much he would win by. Sweet Israeli dreams to Hayley Stevens.
Dwarf Fortress 53.16 is up. Another quality of life patch, this also fixes up some issues like invisible divine items and the one where a dwarf ordering a drink at a tavern with multiple staff would be served a drink by every staff member, sometimes resulting in acute alcohol poisoning.

what's "funny" is aipac probably would've ghosted stevens if she won, because then it'd be zionist vs zionist (rogers has taken half a million from aipac already) and it wouldn't have mattered that much to them who won. but now that it's AES vs rogers, they might double down on the general campaign.
Unfathomable
CNN producer: El-Sayed is projected to win. Quick, get the biggest fucking loser you can find on air

several studies that go into how fast/severe your brain atrophies even with short term use makes me think a lot of people will be severely fucked in the coming decades
The specific focus in this video on the way these tools get under your skin and train you to depend on them is an aspect I personally find existentially terrifying. youtu.be/TtvICev9sBE?...
There have been many legendary Dwarf Fortress patch notes but this might be the greatest one yet:
El-Sayed has received more raw votes in Dearborn than Harris did in the general 2024 lmfao
Arguably there isn't really anything else going on in their minds. Just the thrill of libidinal violence.
