The progress on her post looks is so evident. Angel Reese has become significantly more efficient as this season has progressed. In the last month AR has played 8 games. She's averaging 19 PPG on .487 shooting while still pulling down 11.5 RPG. #WNBASky

Last year I had to go to the Donald Schaefer tower to advocate for someone, and the software MDH is using looks like the computers from Wargames (1983). Like this looks like Windows 7 maybe? The stuff I saw looked like Windows 2.0

This is not a joke. This is a screenshot of the actual case management software used by Massachusetts' 11 District Attorneys. Must-read work here by @nasser.wiki nasser.blog/dial-up-just...

I am not joking: this is AOL era software. It's got clip art. IDK how it even works on modern computers

He was and always will be a piece of shit, and for those reasons I have no empathy for him. He was treated with far more grace by police than he deserved, had he been a BW with a lot of water they would have swiss cheesed his hateful ass

Perez Hilton appeared bloody, wielding what looked like a knife, for FIFTEEN MINUTES on a TikTok livestream before the feed was cut. The company says "moderator error" allowed the stream to continue for so long without intervention.

Follow up: Uncommitted voters did not cost Biden anything and did not cause Harris to lose. They made a stance during a primary Biden was guaranteed to win anyway. Racist Trump voters cost Democrats the election and no one could have fixed that unless they had a genie to make Harris a white man.

NO! “The Arabs” didn’t cost the Democrats the 2024 election! Fuck you for falling for propaganda A small handful of people saying “well I’m going to vote for trump” isn’t the action of a million people

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.

A big majority of Americans want the
U.S. government to stop sending American $$ to Israel's reckless regime and to end the war in Iran.
Yet AIPAC is threatening to spend to deliver the Republicans a critical Senate seat in Michigan, helping a Trump stooge like Mike Rogers who will keep funding Netanyahu's wars and do nothing to stop Trump's Iran War.
This is exactly why so many
Democrats like me have rejected
AIPAC.

The co-founder of the 2024 National Uncommitted Movement, Abbas Alawieh, decisively won his primary to become a State Senator in Michigan. Abbas was endorsed by both Bernie Sanders and Gretchen Whitmer. Abbas Alawieh also privately met with former VP Kamala Harris last month upon her request.

I'm thinking of the people of Dearborn, and all the pain, loss, and suffering theyve dealt with. From the extermination of their families overseas, to the pure hatred they had to endure, from other Americans, at the same time. And now finally, they will have proper representation in Congress.
