(regular voter voice) Well ah I don't really know about Israel and all that but it sounds like this group wants to help Trump keep the Senate and enable his ongoing crime spree and I'm against that

AIPAC: "Our members remain determined to ensure that voters reject Dr. El-Sayed and his radical anti-Israel agenda in November."

it’s crazy how so much of the right wing cultural push is just ‘let’s all pretend we never learned how bad/complex all this stuff is and go back to the way things were when we were ignorant’ ngl I get why it’s powerful messaging but it really is the death of knowledge/growth/expertise

Top 10 funniest things I’ve ever read

Prepare for an insane explosion of Islamophobia between now and November, from the same people on the right (and center!) who pretend to be exercised by the rise in anti-Jewish bigotry. The hate will be off the charts and make the anti-Zohran campaign look tame. Mark my words.

this is so fucking disgusting.

Mike Johnson tells Politico that he's standing behind Republican Max Miller — despite the "serious" domestic abuse allegations against him.

suspiciously green bananas is sadly one of the funniest things i’ve read in awhile

You can never just move on from this, even after he's gone. Without punishment and ostracism for everyone who has participated in his crime spree over the last 18 months you can forget it- we're all just treading water until the next tyrant

“.. Trump has leveraged his control of the federal government to instead escape the scrutiny that every other modern president, not to mention every other regular taxpayer, has been subject to.” @nytimes.com www.nytimes.com/2026/08/03/b...

this is gonna make me cry laughing. 137 year old company still treats Americans like idiots the good old fashioned way

They still do, at least Nintendo of America does. If you watch a UK Nintendo Direct you'll see that they just say "game" instead of "the [game] game" like in the US. Which means that they make the narrator record two versions of the same line every time he mentions the name of a Nintendo game.

The Democrats' midterm ad practically writes itself.

Cornyn: "There's nothing we could do to rein in the president"

"Liberal bubble" has only ever meant anywhere where right wing perspectives aren't artificially elevated and forced into everyone's feeds.

Cornyn: "As to the idea it could be revived in the future, I think it's highly unlikely that could happen without the cooperation of the DOJ. And I think Mr Blanche gave us the assurances that it was dead and would not be revived and in this case we have no alternative but to take his word" 🙃

Moderates keep punching left because it’s easier for them than punching up. Working people are getting crushed by rent, groceries, insurance, and corporate greed, and somehow, the biggest concern these political hacks and moderate candidates have is whether somebody gets called a socialist.

New in PN: Moderate Democrats have a choice to make "They can spend the next three months reinforcing Republican messaging about their party & making it less likely Dems take power. Or they can put the 'battle for the soul of the party' off for a while and do what they can to help their party win."

"Democratic mayors" you forgot a word

Democrats@democrats.org · 2d ago

HUGE: Under Mayor Mamdani, New York City just recorded its safest first 7 months of a year in history—and its safest July ever. In July: Major crime dropped 13% Murder dropped 32% Robberies dropped 15% Vehicle thefts dropped 25% Democratic mayors are putting public safety first.

Well, actually, kinda, yeah, close to what happened. It's not for nothing that Jack Dorsey, who started the place and was on its board, basically ran away when the trans folks and furries scared off all the crypto bros he assumed would be the natural demographic here (they went to Nostr instead).

Bluesky often seems like a project run by tech people who place great value on its architectural differences from Twitter, which nobody cares about, while not understanding how they walked ass-backwards into having a userbase (whomst they fear and despise)

ICE has killed another person.

The detainee had an extensive medical history, including epilepsy, according to a lawsuit. He had complained about his face and hand going numb just before his death, his mother said.

Playing MMORPGs since the year 2004 puts me in a really weird position of Having Seen Literally Everything and it makes talking about MMOS make me feel crazy

You gotta explain all the people at max level who don't know what a single one of their buttons do for this argument to hold water. As it stands, most people make it to max level without any clue how to play the game and it shows the moment a DPS check exists.

the actual reason we shouldnt allow a story skip is not “ffxiv is a story game” but actually “going through leveling your job and learning job responsibilities and the mechanical language of ffxiv as content escalates naturally is better than a short tutorial ever will be”

What does the establishment do if socialism manages not only to overcome the obstacle of its branding, but becomes a political *asset*? What if people *want* it? What if it’s smug satisfied centrism that is the political liability? Whatever else, it’s gonna make Bill Maher’s head pop like a zit.

Is a socialist candidate electable in a purple state? A modestly interesting question. A more interesting question: what if socialist candidates, despite facing opposition from their own party, not only win, but overperform? What if the moderate assumption of themselves as “electable” is exposed?

Opinion: Mamdani's idea may sound appealing, but it's NYC taxpayers who will take the hit, subsidizing discounts they may never even use.
