I've got one of the rarest flowers in the world [when it's wild] growin in my front pollinator garden and today not one but two of it's flowers bloomed and I am just so chuffed. If you can, do some gardening, it's great therapy.

We have by now past the point where the words of an anonymous “Dem strategist” are utterly meaningless to the discourse. If you don’t have the courage to put your name behind your ideas your ideas aren’t worth anyone’s attention. The source here could just as easily be Steve Bannon.

Piping in with a casual reminder: Adding calcium to your soil doesn't fix blossom end rot Most people's soil has enough calcium Don't pour milk on your tomatoes Don't bury tums Plants aren't people & they can't uptake calcium the same way people do Blossom end rot means you aren't watering correctly

If he wins in November, he's going to need many competent progressive people who wouldn't touch city government with a ten foot poll to join city government. A long bench is needed. that's a lesson from Chicago.

I wish Brandon et al had done this in Chicago. Immediately kept people in the city informed about what they were doing, where trouble lay, and importantly what help they would need from city residents. Then a CONSISTENT communication directly from the 5th floor.

I am sure everyone will look the other way, but the guy who just won the Democratic mayoral primary in NYC _ran on expanding access to trans healthcare._

This is wild. If Dems want to figure out a way to win back the minority vote that has started to go elsewhere, this is the way.

I think this would hasten the decline in ad revenue and streaming subscriptions, and I'm not even saying that as a dunk on how insufferable Weiss' schtick has become.

I actually don’t want Cuomo to drop the third party bid because now we have to worry that Michael Bloomberg and Peter Thiel will find a more effective candidate to rally the landlords.

What if all the catastrophizing, bigoted mailers and texting campaigns actually helped Mamdani because it signaled that he scared the kind of people who bug the shit out of voters by producing that campaign spam.

This is great news, but I'm not breathing a sigh of relief just yet. Republicans will no doubt try to sneak a new provision in that clears this procedural hurdle. But this is a sign of what's possible with public pressure, so if you care about your public lands, keep it up.

Essentially the argument seems to boil down to: if a corrupt executive branch was democratically elected, then the voters elected the corruption as well, and therefore we all have to tolerate it for the next four[Ha] years when we'll have a chance to elect an lawful/ethical executive branch instead.
