Who else hates that people don't attend a virtual meeting and instead send their AI note taker? Can't remove "someone" fast enough.
I hate Quickbooks and its false "Good morning!" when I log in.
a big part of ossoff's rhetorical success is it doesnt contain the compromise and caveats that are a baked-in part of democratic party rhetoric. theres no pretending that his opponent is just misguided or will be pulled back from the edge by "the good republicans." ossoff is saying "fuck this guy"
Figuring out why Ossoff is so effective is an interesting task. I think he's mastering a kind of stern dignity that is uniquely compelling in contrast to the clownish cruelty of the other side. I think the other person who's kind of hit on the same thing is AOC, though in a different register
Another fucking horrible day with ICE activity. Here. There. Everywhere. #AbolishICE #ICEisGestpo

We're posting at least two signs at each of the 17 drop boxes in Marin. Not sure how long they'll last, particularly in Novato where, as a long-time resident of said town I can attest to too many of the MAGA ilk in our midst. #NoKingsVoteEarly

I’ll be dropping my ballot in a dropbox tomorrow. It’s all marked and sealed and signed. I voted really fucking hard. NO ON THE VOTER ID BILL FUCKING NO. I really hated that Bonta capitulated to the Skydance takeover, but I had to vote for him anyway, because the MAGA alternative is far worse.
The NY Times uses words like “fierce,” “steely,” “nimble” and “homegrown star of the Trump White House” to describe Karoline Leavitt, who just got a Fox News gig. Not a single mention of her relentless lying to the American public. Reporter Michael M. Grynbaum and his editors suck.
Karoline Leavitt, Trump’s ‘Machine Gun,’ Has a New Gig at Fox News (Gift Article)
A fierce and nimble speaker, Ms. Leavitt is the second of Mr. Trump’s former press secretaries to join the cable news network.

The Wonder Mutt is scowling at me. We should have started our walk 45 minutes ago. He'll give up the scowl when he realizes the beach is in his future.
Got a shout-out by an amazing human today at an event, and I'm going to carry that with me to my grave.
“how do we win back trump voters in 2026” we don’t. we create an environment where admitting to voting for trump is so socially embarrassing as to render them completely inert. you don’t “win back” trump voters. you demoralize them into staying home. you make it a dunce cap

I think we might swap out the "v" for a "u" as Election Day nears.
So many horrible vetoes from him. Truly unforgivable.

I don't wanna COUCH my words here: I know JD Vance, his eyeliner, and absent Ashley Moody are used to running away from people when things get tough because they care more about themselves and their billionaire buddies than the people they represent. But this is my home. /1

A forgotten media moment from earlier this year was that Olivia Reingold embedded with ICE agents in Minnesota and never wrote about what it was like because doing so would turn Free Press readers into No Kings marchers.
Apparently Ben Shapiro is trying to make ICE likable. www.thebulwark.com/p/daily-wire...
y'all if you get mad about women saying "choose the bear" please look up bear assault and murder statistics and then contrast with human men. It is objectively reasonable to choose the bear.
