the best show on twitter is the ongoing Existential Nightmare of Tony Hawk narrating his own life
At rental car agency, can’t find my name on the monitor to find my car, go inside & wait in line. Finally get to the front, agent sees me & says “you really are Tony Hawk”
Me: um, yes. I was looking for my name outside on the list
Him: “I deleted it because I thought it was fake”

this is truly incredible. backstory: the stanford college republicans printed the below panel to try to say that
@elivalley
, noted jewish leftist cartoonist, is a nazi/self hating jew or somthing simply for drawing this image, an image so benign it was literal totebag material
It’s especially funny that these antisemitic shitheads chose a panel used by
@New_Voices_Mag
on a tote bag for a 2012 conference sponsored by The Forward and JTA. For Republican trash, it’s fit to call every Jew, and every Jewish organization, a Nazi.

thank you Jack Evans for defending all the poor and downtrodden District families out there struggling to maintain a fleet of four(??) cars
Evans on a family that has four cars $140 vs $375, a 150% increase.
"That's a big deal, a big jump. Although it doesn't sound like a lot of money, it is a lot of money," Evans said. "The complaints I get a lot is that the government is nickel and diming us."

an architect of the Obama-Biden admin attempt to cut social security is a bundler for Biden. Most importantly, Bowles was on the board of 'millennial anti-federal debt' group The Can Kicks Back, which is my alltime favorite astroturf group
Erskine Bowles is a bundler for Joe Biden.

The White House has said it will be necessary for voters to “out-organize voter suppression.” How they will pull that off is anyone’s guess, but it sure looks like Democrats could really use the help of some kind of association of community organizations for reform—now.
Republicans were worried enough about the work ACORN was doing to make sure that once it died, it stayed dead.

The true YIMBY knower is aware that the only way to achieve the YIMBY agenda runs through DSA. I welcome all YIMBYs to join the fight for socialized land and housing
Would legitimately support purging YIMBYs from DSA at this point, they are a scourge. Little different from purging Free Masons or federal agents or KKK.

Massachusetts taxed the rich. Now they have an extra $1.8 billion to spend.
In November 2022 voters approved a 4% tax on incomes over $1 million.
The state can now use that money on free public school meals, free community college, and public transit.

A similarity between USPS and public insurance is that companies in both sectors acknowledge they can't meet the demand on their own and rely on the public sector (Medicare/Medicaid, last mile USPS for FedEx/UPS) to serve the less/unprofitable

statehood, a prominent feature of this country's constitutional design, is now socialism. i'm obviously biased but how anyone can take seriously the idea that you have to avoid letting the right call you a socialist when even statehood gets tagged that way is beyond me
McConnell calls granting statehood to D.C. and Puerto Rico, “full bore socialism.”
