I block anything that smells like bots, AI, spam. I repost a lot of political stuff. It's my breadcrumb trail. If you don't care about politics, enjoy my cute doggo pfp but don't follow back.
These are Republicans. Given a choice between someone named Thomas Smith and someone named Amir Hassan, they're going Anglos all the way down.
LOL. Abdul El-Sayed WON the Democratic Primary in Michigan despite being outspent 10-1! Amazing gaslighting here.
Progressives didn’t get the big election night they wanted
You can/should read Emily Wilson's latest take on the Odyssey, but I'm logging on to convey my hairdresser's reaction. She was AGHAST that Nolan, with his million $ budget, gave Matt Damon ONLY 6 hair extensions. As a result, his hair did not blow around properly, & that ruined the film for her.
Trump: "Everybody saw the vandalism. All you have to do is look at the tape." (There is no tape. Trump is nuts.)
It's OK for criminal ex-neo Nazis to run your bins is a hell of a line.
Wow guys maybe spending months gleefully tormenting brown people isn't gonna shake out so good in the states with lots of brown people??? Huge if true
yall remember the Texas Fox News poll? yeah it’s real. they’re on the money
Hispanics actively swinging 20+ points left lmao, you hate to see it if you’re Texas GOP
It's weird living in the "just because someone is a nazi doesn't mean they're antisemitic, maybe YOU'RE antisemitic for pointing it out" era.
Nonsense. RBNZ estimated in May that the oil price shock would lead to higher unemployment for longer (yellow line) but today's data was worse than expected (again!) The trouble is the reckonomists believe their own recovery hype.
Philosophers used to moan about the assumption that things are only real if you could measure them. But honestly that’s a lot better than the assumption now that things are only real if you can monetise them.
See? We're not a nation of cat killers, we just hate *feral* cats.
Steps the Tauranga hospital cat goes missing, community launches search
I hope the most important lesson dems learn from the MI-07 Congressional race is that the time of not doing the work is over. We can no longer drop in candidates with nat'l security experience, who haven't lived in the district and rely on media campaigns. People need to show up and knock doors.
I saw a FB post from a thoroughly apolitical college acquaintance in this district who stuck a Lawrence sign in her yard because she met and talked with him and he showed genuine interest in her career as a pre-K educator and established local ties. Good candidates knocking doors goes a long way!
Voting straight ticket D without any thought makes election day easy as hell
The best thing about Vote Blue No Matter Who is that it unloads a lot of cognitive burden. I wanted Tom Steyer to be in the Governor's race, but he's not so I'm gonna vote for Becerra. I don't follow his campaign at all: I'm voting for him because he's not a Republican.
Teach your children ‘democrats are not always good, but republicans ARE always bad’ and in 2026 you’ve covered like 90% of their practical civic education wrt voting.

i have never been chill about anything in my entire life and i do not intend to start today
So legacy media has just discovered Epstein and his buddies were laundering money. Yeah. We know. I give you EFTA0280127. An obvious but rarely cited court case. #EpsteinFiles
good reminder that before the counting is over, election results don’t tighten. at no point is anyone trailing. nobody moves closer. they’re just tabulating the polls. it’s a fixed number that just isn’t done yet. to say otherwise is bad journalism but even worse math.
i know votes are still being counted but the more i look at this michigan senate map the more it becomes clear that it kind of looks like a mitten
Twin Peaks: Sarah Palmer, incredibly upset, on the phone.
Tonight we find out whether Michigan voters are bluesky posters or bluesky replyers
"You can’t pay for anything by card anymore. That stopped being a thing in the 2030s. The Data Lord doesn’t take AmEx. It’s half a pint now, or a full pint every two months, and you’re on a monthly plan. Hold your arm out, and I’ll get the tourniquet." buff.ly/mI21wrK

As one who spends a lot of time reviewing AI transcription: influential Partly a NZ pronunciation problem. Many such cases, like "Infratil" being rendered "infertile". And the problem is compounded by the LLMs reliably selecting real words that are hard to pick up with spellcheck. But no excuses
