Jesus. Automated enforcement advocates really underestimate the potential for abuse with these cameras. The amount of information they collect is staggering, as is the ability to piece it all together to meticulously track individual people.

I still can’t wrap my head around how he’s so obsessed with how much he has to be allowed to do a genocide. Until I remember I grew up with white Catholics who talk exactly like he does about Gaza. It’s vile.

(Also my god you can tell Google is croaked because it shouldn’t be this difficult for me to find someone local who can do this.) 😓

Yiddish Sky! Is anyone available for hire to translate 26 pages of typed Yiddish to English? (I think it’s Polish based.) It would be about a difficult subject so I’m happy to chat about it beforehand.

The States Project is one of the best bang-for-your-buck options for your campaign donations. Even beyond it, though, state legislatures deserve your attention. Next time you're tempted to send money to whoever's going to lose to MTG, send it instead to a contested state leg seat.

I understand the pull of doomerism but I'll also point out that "red-state" organizers and activists have been living under, and resisting/rebuking, many and various forms of oppression for a long time and should be considered leaders in this moment. Like I said back in 2017:

This. The Democratic Party does not have the votes to do major reforms right now, but they 100% have the power to do big, messy, public hearings taking the justices to task for their corruption and abuses of power.

If you live in CA, both Butler and Padilla are on the Senate Judiciary Committee. Make time to call today. Then set a reminder in your phone to call again later this week. Then tell three friends to do the same.

Regretting canceling my subscription to the New York Times on a morning when they’re bringing me an oped from Bill Maher AND an interview with Steve Bannon. What a tantalizing feast for the mind, sadly beyond my reach now

I lived in California when prop 8 happened and every ad going against it was the straightest, most fangless shit you’ve ever seen. Just like this. I don’t know how we get new leadership in the Dems but we need it.

I am going to eat and drink like I’m dying and in November I’ll know if it’s terminal. That’s all I can think right now.

The first thing that gave me hope was realizing my district might finally realize what an absolute ratfuck our politics are and we’ll strive to get rid of the damage and do better.

This Guardian article makes an apt comparison between Bowman’s defeat and the setback done by Prop 8 in California back in 2008. It was the second thing that made me feel hopeful this morning. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

I live in the same city as Bowman and our local politics is soaked in this behavior. It’s so demoralizing.

All I’m looking forward to now is how Latimer will be known on a national level alongside Manchin, Fetterman, and other clown shoes.

I feel so damn lucky to have had Jamaal Bowman as my Congressman. I hope he returns to the hill. I never knew we could have optimism in our representatives instead of the usual 70 year old telling us to “wait your turn”.

My Kindle is a game changer for my tendinitis. Large books aggravate the inflammation so having something lighter helps loads.

I just looked at Spotify’s US charts. “Not Like Us” is sitting steady at 6 this week. I scrolled all the way down to 150 and didn’t see a single song by Drake on there. That is WILD. “Mr. Brightside” by The Killers is 119, btw.

some things we, as a society, have recently done to teens: -traumatized them with gun violence -vastly reduced their rights to reproductive healthcare -had a moral panic about their genders -abandoned them to the ravages of covid, destroying their immune systems it's not tiktok that fucked em up
