Looks like the answer is yes: www.reddit.com/r/NYTCooking...
This afternoon I am going to settle on a recipe management app, download all my NYTCooking saves to it, and cancelling that subscription.

This could all be over if the New York Times editorial board would finally man up and call for Trump's withdrawal.

If you cancel NYT all access, do you lose all the saved recipes in the food app? Literally asking for a friend. I canceled years ago.

She is in absolutely no way my favorite, but, y'know, life isn't always fair, who gives a shit. If Biden can't put the pedal down, so be it. We can all be cringe and khive our way to not accidentally installing outright fascism in America, lfg

Sticking with Biden or running Harris would be *far* less risky than dedicating two of the next four months to Democrat infighting, followed by an unprecedented delegate voting process and dubious chances of even getting on the ballot. Knowing this shit is supposed to be these people's job

It's not going to come down to a president or red states or blue states. It's going to come down to electing mayors and city council members that are brave enough to say "you're going to need to send in the National Guard if you want that shit enforced here." This is why we vote.

As well-meaning publishers try to navigate the coming storm of state laws against diversity, I hope they'll consider Timothy Snyder's Rule #1 (from his slim book ON TYRANNY).

""Our people fled from (Syrian President) Bashar al-Assad only to be oppressed in Turkey," he said, urging Ankara to do more to stop violence against Syrians.

On Friday, Erdogan had pointed to a possible meeting with Assad, saying it was "not impossible”."

pro tip for other leftists: anyone actively hungering on bluesky for violence & war is either delusional, a fed, or both. in history, even relatively successful leftist revolutions only happened after the ruling class rejected multiple attempts by the working class to reform their conditions.

“You’re a lawyer! What does this mean, really?” Man, I don’t fucking know. In the last week an entire area of law I studied was more or less rendered entirely moot and now there’s one specific guy in the whole country who may be able to do anything he wants without recourse. This is kind of new.

The current liberal approach has been to pray Dems win every election, and then hold their breath hoping an inimical Court didn't do too much damage, or then-Justice Kennedy would miraculously swing left. Those easier doctrinal days are dead. The time of real resistance is here.

there's nothing wrong with having feelings of despair and futility, but i think it's most responsible to avoid airing all that out in public to the greatest extent possible right now. we need to cultivate a vengeance-driven, enraged espirit de corps right now, because we need people to fight
