Stunning upset in Michigan, where delegates chose progressive Washtenaw County prosecutor Eli Savit over Oakland County's Karen McDonald.
McDonald had amassed a large nest egg for the general.
Savit had drawn the ire of some democrats for refusing to prosecute pro-Palestinian U of M protesters.

Telemachus' Detachment When I was a child looking at my parents' lives, you know what I thought? I thought heartbreaking. Now I think heartbreaking, but also insane. Also very funny.

1 yr ago I wrote a massive thread on @iea.org huge AI / energy report.
WELL it's one year later and they've released an update, but notably, there is no chatbot. Well....I'm going to read it anyway, and you're all going to get spammed with notes :)
that's means a NEW ULTRATHREAD 🧵
an empty bus on an empty road cruising along Commissioners St to the depot with no sign lit up.
None of it was instantaneous (though EMDR involved a series of emotional breakthroughs), but sometime in the past couple of years I started to realize that the chronic depression that had defined my emotional experience for my whole life isn’t coming back. Which I honestly didn’t think was possible
Thanks to therapy, the chronic depression I’d lived with as long as I could remember lifted at around age 40—for me, a lot of it had to do with learning how much of my depression had been maladaptive coping with the constant anxiety that I didn’t understand and thought was my fault
Running was a game changer for me being able to better live with the amount of general anxiety my body produces on its own. Therapy and EMDR helped me understand why my body learned to churn out anxiety all the time in the first place, so I’m not always emotionally chasing it trying to tamp it down
The two things I’ve done in my life that have had the biggest positive effects on my mental health are 1) in my early 30s, I started to run three miles basically every day, and 2) EMDR & therapy, started in my late 30s. (Things that didn’t really help included attaining multiple graduate degrees)
Every time I’ve seen this video over the past week, I watch it. I’ve followed Jordan Lucas on all platforms. More self-expression in all sports. Please and thank you ❤️

Commission in progress: "As seen from my front door" (working title), oil on canvas, 18x24". A lot of it is still underpainting, aside from the grey bricks, but things are taking shape. #art #wip
Always love walking around there! It’s cool to see how it changes, too, as he’s always adding stuff or building out onto neighboring blocks
Painted tiles with strangely grinning faces in an outdoor setting. Some have old modified phones on top. A sign says”The YOU NEW’S.”
A large sign is hand painted with “The Time is Now.” A cartoonish naked lady is painted next to it. A smiling face with a bar for eyes is painted on the sidewalk with a heart.
A large pile of a variety of kinds of footwear is haphazardly piled in front of a stack of shopping carts. A wood piece in the foreground is painted with a red plus sign on an abstract background.
A house covered in brightly colored painted polka dots.
Artist Tyree Guyton’s open-air installation, the Heidelberg Project, in Detroit’s McDougall Hunt neighborhood. So much to see!
Interesting that I found out about the death (and life) of Celeste Depuy-Spencer from the New York Times this morning. No one on this website I could find has even mentioned the death of a famous trans[masculine] artist at 46.

Color photograph of a residential intersection at night. A streetlight on a utility pole on the opposite corner shines harshly bright white light over the concrete on the empty street, casting the unlit yard and house behind it in deep shadow
