Question: my kid and her family moved into your district literally 10 days ago. Can they fill out provisional ballots?

Fuck ICE. Free Palestine. Vote Kat.

The primary strategy conservatives use to convince white women to give up our rights is assuring us that we will be exempt from the oppression.

This is “white women will always be able to access abortions and reproductive healthcare” but for the 19th amendment.

My platform doesn’t just include Medicare for All, but the addition of a more robust public health network. Public health is my specialty and it’s all too often overlooked. We have to invest in public health along with Medicare for all so that we can treat people today and prevent diseases tomorrow.

its been genuinely so funny that the two massive “scandals” for james talarico so far is that he follows a few onlyfans girls on socials, and that he respects trans people. sounds like a normal guy to me

‘Hey’ came before ‘hi,’ and ‘hi' came before ‘hello.’

‘Hi’ is most likely a variant of ‘hey.’

‘Hello’ is not related to either.

Goodbye.

Yes, hello, is that God? Yeah, hi. I have a complaint. You gave me this brain that’s designed for finding berries and avoiding lions and now people are ‘just circling back’ to see if we can ‘move the needle’ on ‘key initiatives’? NONE of those things are berries.

For Mahmoud Khalll, this past year has been marked by profound hardship-and by profound courage. A year ago, Mahmoud was walking home through our city after sharing an iftar with his wife Noor when he was detained by federal agents, flown to Louisiana, and then held in an ICE facility for months. In that time, he was forced to miss the birth of his first child. All of this for exercising his First Amendment rights in protesting the ongoing genocide in Palestine. And yet, even in the face of that cruelty, there has also been beauty. New Yorkers raising their voices in solidarity. A city refusing to look away. Mahmoud won his freedom, and a father was finally reunited with his child. Last night, as we marked the one year anniversary of his detention, Rama and I were honored to welcome Mahmoud, Noor, and their son Deen to Gracie Mansion to break our fast together. Mahmoud is a New Yorker, and he belongs in New York City.

AIPAC sees we have the momentum, and they are panicking.

Here’s their latest attack ad, and my reaction:

Just so people on bluesky are aware…I was very early bluesky and I very much actively followed every dog account I could find that signed up and now when I open bluesky I basically am given pure dog content straight to the brain stream every time. I am proposing everyone else do this. The end.

Just over one week left, and we're doubling down on knocking doors and calling our neighbors!

Here's where you can plug in this week:

Jay: Guys, please don't let "skeets" stick The experiment in decentralized naming decisions has resulted in the worst possible term How about skoots? Can we bring back skoots? Bluesky OGs, help me out here, remember skoots? 10:45 PM · Apr 27, 2023

Say what you will about Jay, but she is solely responsible for Bluesky posts being called skeets.

John Oliver (on right) gestures with his hands as he speaks. On left, a ProPublica headline from December 15, 2025 reads: “Trump Officials Celebrated With Cake After Slashing Aid. Then People Died of Cholera.” An article excerpt below says: "... turning rows red, yellow or green every few seconds, never asking a single question.”

1/ On yesterday’s @lastweektonight.com about USAID, John Oliver cited several of our investigations.

First up was our reporting about how DOGE operatives had arbitrarily cut aid programs, in some cases by literally clicking through a spreadsheet: propub.li/4cCsSKP

He's lost my primary vote as well, but I'm Very Online, have a graduate degree, and am pretty politically engaged.

My elders are high propensity voters. They were shaped by Jim Crow and the CRM. Candidates who aren't Black & show up with comfort at Black events and Black churches are HUGE for them.

will remember jay as the person who deleted lexi alexander and link, worked hard to cut palestinians off from their one chance at survival, ignored the ongoing abuse of Black and trans users, and then when confronted about the whole thing said 'waffles'. and for that fugly no caesars shirt.

I'm running out of time. Please help if you can. I only have four days until my car insurance is cancelled. I'm trying to raise $800 for bills while I'm very sick. Please boost. Thank you darlings 🖤🖤🖤

I aspire to write a headline a tenth as good as this someday. Also, fuck the IDF and well done Al Kapranos for taking a stand.

I can tell you it will serve you to mend your shoes. Come, wherefore should you be so pashful? Your shoes is not so good.
