I dislike THE STEPFORD WIVES for reasons that go beyond its being a cruddy movie: I dislike it for the condescension implicit in its view that educated American women are not responsible for what they become. (1975)

By winning, El-Sayed scored a signature victory for progressives far bigger than others that preceded it given Michigan is a key swing state and has a history of favoring far more centrist candidates for statewide office, writes @detroitfreepress.bsky.social Washington correspondent Todd Spangler.

In other Michigan news, the state looks set to elect it's first transgender lawmaker. Joanna Whaley won her Democratic primary and will compete in November for a state house seat, beating a primary opponent who tried and failed to disqualify her for not running under her deadname

The funniest thing about this is describing Bluesky, a place that was running individual sex pests off of here when we still had to have invites to sign up, as "the 'Be Kind' mob" We're not the fucking Barney the Dinosaur show with pitchforks, we're just overwhelmingly and staunchly anti-pedo 😌

"And in real life, Rod was kind and generous. He came to dinner at my house, and brought his family along to one of my Christmas parties, no doubt turning down far grander invitations to be there." Hitler was an animal lover, you know... Doted on his German Shepherd dogs...

Joanna Williams in The Telegraph: They are celebrating the death of Rod Liddle on Bluesky, and it's even worse than you think

The "Be Kind" mob betrays its true nature with torrents of hate - and even the dead aren't safe

Non-marginalized love to pin the spokesperson role on those who want literally anything but that.
