Let me tell you about Russell Brand, as someone who helped the journalists who eventually exposed him. In 2013/4, Brand started to become interested in progressive politics. He said progressive things publicly, went on Newsnight etc. At the time I was involved in progressive grassroots work myself.

Progressive, pro-democracy nerd. We can't control everything in this world. What we can control is what we focus on. As we confront a difficult reality, let's all stay present in our own lives and with our loved ones.
OK this is my final repost of a Cybertruck joke but if you’ve lived in the US you know this is the very best one

Holy Crap! I used the hashtag #wherescindy in a tweet dunking on Hyde-Smith about her third person tweet about how she's definitely positively winning. So I clicked the hashtag and it brought up this fucking gem masterpiece of an ad @scolom.bsky.social posted back in September!
has the New York Times announced the roster of new progressive columnists they're bringing on board, the restructuring and creation of new verticals, and other dramatic steps they're taking to reflect the Real America they didn't properly understand or nah?

The difference in the Mississippi senate race right now is just 43 votes. 96% of the votes counted.
Can someone tell Hakeem Jefferies that we need a little less "Focus on affordability" and a little more "And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger"? Asking for an entire nation.

NYT fired romance columnist Olivia Waite for reposting a mild critique. Incredibly thin-skinned. Seems like Mark Jacob must have touched a nerve.

Over the weekend I had a sad about probably not living to see a Uranus orbiter mission. I can't really complain though - we've orbited all the pre-telescope planets during my life. Here's a post I wrote about an orbital tour of the Uranus system. spaceflighthistory.blogspot.com/2015/04/the-...
If these are anywhere close to right, I’m feeling pretty good about our forecast at p(Dem Senate) = 0.75. might even go up toward 80% after the model processing these polls
I.C.E. is a racist, violent scourge on our nation and must be abolished. Throughout the United States of America, the agency’s militarized MAGA soldiers stalk, surveil, assault and abduct our neighbors, hundreds of times daily. This particular assault could’ve easily resulted in this woman’s death.
I have felt this for a long time but not been able to understand nor process it. Thank you for writing this. edgnts.substack.com/p/why-americ...

Fox: Why are you here this morning? Trump rally attendee: Well, in the late 70s, I was a little too young to go to South America for the Jonestown Massacre. But this is as close as I'll ever get, so that's why I'm here. There's nothing like seeing a cult right up front.
NEW — I spoke to Tom, the guy at the South Carolina Trump rally who compared the president's supporters to the Jonestown Massacre. We talked about his loathing for Trump, his love of death metal, and where he learned his impeccable comedic timing. Read our full chat here:
I talked to Tom, the viral ‘Jonestown’ Trump rally guy
He planned to make good trouble. But he didn't expect to be handed a Fox News mic.

Regular contact?! Democrats need to investigate Space Caligula’s Russian communications. In order to hold his security clearance, he has to report these conversations. If he chose to conceal his contacts, his clearances should be revoked.
Putin called Elon Musk a genius and said Russia is in regular contact with him. The US is discussing the return of US oil companies to Russia and lifting sanctions on Russia's government investment fund. Lavrov will be at the G20 meeting in Atlanta this week. There are no words.
Can confirm that Google’s Gemini refuses to answer who won the 2020 presidential election, but it will tell you who won in 2024.
oh my fucking god
