Two images of Zohran. On the left is the original from the campaign which shows a close cropped beard. On the right is a version used by Cuomo’s SuperPAC with an artificially longer, darker beard.

Andrew Cuomo is afraid he'll lose, so his donors want you to fear me.

His SuperPAC just sent out a mailer that artificially lengthened and darkened my beard.

This is blatant Islamophobia—the kind of racism that explains why MAGA billionaires support his campaign.

Someone else said something very similar to this the other day, but.

It really burns me that our (millennials') generation was legally terrorized for like, downloading Radiohead discographies

But we're supposed to be ok with billionaires stealing human intellectual output in its entirety bc AI

Taylor Swift and Caitlin Clark, minding their own business while watching an NFL game in a sky box.

How a newly formed friendship gave Taylor Swift the courage to own her masters, by Christine Brennan.

If you're only watching the league when it's one particular player involved and ignoring the rest, you're not really a fan of the league and probably not about to be.

I am begging people to be normal about Caitlin Clark.

Will even one university in the United States issue a statement saying "We will not embrace fascism"?

New York Times: Opinion guest essay: Chuck Schumer: Trump and Musk Would Love a Shutdown. We Must Not Give Them One.

Schumer had this written and sent over to the New York Times for edits before he told either his Senate colleagues or his constituents how he would be voting. This spineless quisling has to go.

Picture of police guarding a Tesla dealership.

Too bad Uvalde Elementary didn’t sell Teslas.

We simply do not have to sacrifice the rights of trans people to save rights elsewhere and anybody that tells you otherwise is a fascist

This is key to understanding the building outrage & backlash that extends way beyond the hurt of those fired. Firing people for no reason is brutal & loathsome but the even larger overall offense is wiping out all the fired people’s jobs with them, all the purposes & needs & value those jobs serve.

Given developments at the Kennedy Center, effective today I am resigning as artistic advisor to the NSO.
Not for me.
It’s been a wonderful 8 years working with Kennedy Center President Deb Rutter, fellow artistic advisor Renee Fleming, NSO artistic administrator Justin Ellis, and the entire NSO

It feels like no one should have to say this, and yet we are in a situation where it needs to be said, very loudly and clearly, before it’s too late to do anything about it: The United States is not a startup. If you run it like one, it will break.

The NTSB says it will no longer email news outlets or reporters with notifications of upcoming press conferences, including those on plane crashes in Washington and Philadelphia.

Instead, all notifications will be made on X.

We're filing a FOIA to find out more about the change in policy.

I could watch this every day and it would still make me laugh so hard

if a major politician held an emergency rally about the current ongoing coup by the richest man in the world, I think people would go to it. Shit is well and truly fucked. I can think of a couple of people who should do that right now.

Stop fucking saying he blamed “DEI,” which is some abstract, non-tangible idea. He is blaming people of color having jobs he thinks they aren’t qualified for. He’s blaming race. He’s being racist every time he says it. Journalists need to get fucking backbones, my word.

Report the news accurately. They have no approval to offer this money. They're just making shit up to fool people into quitting their jobs.

we never should’ve given power to the nerds. the jocks shouldn’t have it either. we must usher in the age of the goths

It’s unreal to watch our country be bought in real time. Watching Hegseth, backed by unlimited funds, march through these farcical hearings is sickening. A dark-money group tied to Elon Musk spent $500k pressuring Joni Ernst to fall in line. These senators are bought and paid for—this is a takeover.
