There really is no such thing as race. We all came from Africa. We are all of the same stardust. We are all going to live and die on the same planet, a Pale Blue Dot in the vastness of space. We have to work together.

If you go back and watch a movie like All the Presidents's Men, it will really hit you how massively our country has changed in my lifetime. It was unthinkable for any of today's headlines to ever even exist back then.
A lot of you think it's always been this bad, but it hasn't. It really hasn't.
Tech CEOs seem dead set on rebooting the French Revolution
Keep Walking The Walk,Mayor Mamdani.......
People twisting themselves into knots trying to find a way to take umbrage with this are embarrassing. He's right. Everyone knows he's right. Dems have been on the backfoot for my entire adult life because he's right. The problem is party leadership is full of corrupt dinosaurs. They need to booted.
What a difference 3 weeks can make for a dog ❤️
I actually think they know more than they let on and that the coverage failure is more of an editorial decision to not anger the billionaire nut jobs who back this shit
god i love this man
Mamdani: "To be honest, I don't think too much about how Republicans portray me. The power of an ideology is judged in the worth of its delivery-to be told a city-run grocery store is implausible but $500 MILLION per day to kill people in Iran and Lebanon is necessary speaks to a broken politics." @TheTNHoller
On the anniversary of Tim Curry’s birth I would just like to say that there are few actors who are as good as him at putting exactly the right amount of unhinged overacting and camp into a role to make it memorable.
The man is quite literally an acting genius and we are all better for knowing him.
what you are seeing is how well propaganda works—in the USA the owners of media wanted Trump for oligarchical reasons, and the information environment egregiously glosses over the insanity-in other countries the propaganda incentive structure is different, so people get more accurate info
Not to breakup a good lib bashing but this isn't a "Dem" problem. It's a money in politics problem.
I don't care what the ideology, it's dominating everything.
If any 2028 dem doesnt mimic this man and his policies they have no business running
Mamdani: "What are we fighting for?. When you look back at the history books of our party, 100 years ago we had a very clear vision of what we were fighting for. It's sad that for too many Americans, when they want to look for ambition in the Democratic Party, then have to turn to a history book."
The seething hatred they've had for Thunberg since the moment she popped up as a teenager saying, "let's not destroy the planet" because they worried (rightly) that environmentalism was a gateway to asking "who's responsible for all this shit and what else are they doing?"
he knew it was either that or the proverbial guillotine
Both the best thing and the worst thing would be for the World Cup to be played in front of mostly empty stadiums.
It is sad to say but this tournament deserves to be a massive commercial failure.
we are slaves to the mythology of America
if this dude was born in america he'd be leading every poll to be the next presidential nominee of the dems
I understand the myriad reasons why a lot of outlets chose not to make hay out of Paige Bueckers and Azzi Fudd's relationship. I, however, love gay women so I blogged about how happy it made me here:

AI is a pandora’s box that is already opened—her description of the fantasy of elite business owners is correct, but it is exactly the same fantasy the wealthy elite had for the industrial revolution (see luddites and john henry mytholog)—truth is we have no idea what will happen to jobs/economy
I’d like to hear serious people start talking about what needs to happen to assure us that a Trump type individual will NEVER AGAIN gain this kind of power.

Trump makes a profane post threatening genocide on Easter, trashes the Pope for refusing to worship him, and posts a depiction of himself as Jesus healing the sick.
The right-wing political pastors who promoted this scumbag fake Christian as someone chosen by God are charlatans.
So glad to see someone so beautifully articulate what I think about almost every day….
@ harvard I will do this for less than half of whatever you're paying him
