The Zohran thing has been very revealing, and not in a way that speaks well to the Democratic Party as currently constructed. “Fix your hearts or die” would be my advice.

clowns to the left of me, jokers to the right, here I am, in a strictly organised clowns and jokers shop

this pre-premiere tweet is the most vindicated I've ever been

Accurate

Just saw a guy asking why Zohran Mamdani, who is running for Mayor of New York City, isn’t at the memorial service for the Minnesota Lawmaker who was tragically murdered, we are truly reaching new heights in finding ways to pretend to be angry at this man

Hey Disney+, if rewinding a show causes an ad break that’s already played to play again, do I get a discount on my subscription?

I made this 3 years ago 🫠

I miss having a human president.

GOP 2021: “The debt is out of control! GOP 2022: “the debt is out of control!” GOP 2023: “the debt is out of control GOP 2024: “the debt is out of control!” GOP 2025: ”let’s raise the debt ceiling $5 trillion!”

the supreme court has ruled we're no longer allowed to cut these and in fact they're personally going to the landfill to tape already cut ones back together to hurt turtles and birds

I agree.

mamdani handled all the racism in the primary with incredible grace. he never got angry about it or positioned himself as a victim of unfairness or prejudice, he just stuck to his message of affordability. and now that it's worked his reward is everybody hitting a 10x racism multiplier

Do love hitting refresh over and over again to learn what my rights are

Former mayoral candidate Ana Bailao said on AM640 this morning that if we’re not careful, there will be a Zohran Mamdani-style democratic socialism movement here. This, to her mind, would be a very bad thing.

Funny how the US has basically the government of Iran now: Supreme Leader who rules by decree, priestly council with token opposition that decides whether the decisions are okay or not on arcane scriptural grounds, and completely ceremonial legislature

Thinking about the tut-tutting Democratic politicians who spent their two years in power warning that Supreme Court expansion was too radical an idea to even think about taking seriously. You absolute fucking rubes. You gigantic, credulous losers. I hope you are ashamed of yourselves today.

Remarkably strong correlation between pundits who told me the Supreme Court upholding Texas’s abortion bounty hunter law was technical and not a sign it would overturn Roe, and pundits assuring me birthright citizenship is fine because people can “just file a class action” or whatever

I’m stealing the USB adapter.

Inexplicably very on sale today, thanks @raygunsite.com.

So am I reading this court decision correctly? We now have 50 micronations with their own laws interpreting the U.S. Constitution wholly separate from one another? But there's one guy with private law enforcement who is immune from all punishment who can do whatever he wants in those 50 states?

Very confused by Jeopardy saying that Paul Rudd's Friends character was named Mike Hannigan, since as we all know, it was:

I am so happy we got Sinners and 28 Years Later this year. Both films are centered in the question of how a society looks at its history, and how that forms what that society is, and they are both achingly humanistic in their perspectives. Both using horror to brilliant, inventive effect.

when i buy whiskey from the ABC store, that's like the soviet union, to me.

Muslim guy: what if a poor person could buy vegetables Reasonable New Yorker: I am moving to a Whites Only compound 1,140 miles away from here as soon as possible. Please invite me onto the television to say this again.

Youth pastor voice: You know who else took on a globally important leadership role at the age of 33?

I had forgotten that the kid leads of 28 WEEKS LATER have names that sound like someone doing a pretty good job making fun of British people

Been wanting to punch the smug face of this dude from the opening credits of Cheers forever

I will direct the new James Bond movie for half of whatever Denis Villeneuve is charging. Your move, Amazon MGM Studios

i think, unfortunately, that this may be my masterpiece

This is a Hall of Fame reader comment on a very reactionary op-ed about Zohran Mamdani's victory that was published in my local paper today.

Hey Disney+ why are you so shitty with your ad placements during shows that there is a commercial before the title card even appears in the first ep of Ironheart?

Thanks for your vote of confidence…I guess?! Unlike you, I’d actually be focused on the American people—the issues they’re facing, making sure folks have healthcare, and consulting with Congress before dropping bombs on another country.

Federal and local law enforcement wearing masks is just plain unamerican. It’s a cowards move, and shows the fact that the kinds of deportations happening and the methods are, shameful and unpopular. adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/why-are-fe...

Wow! I sure feel both freer and safer!

This would've been a daily stormer thread a decade ago. Neo-nazi conspiracy theories are mainstream now.

When I was a newborn I saved up and bought my own basket. We all did. This generation just wants a handout

The path for Democrats is very clear: have good ideas, believe in them, state them clearly, stick to them, act decisively in support of these ideas, speak to the young half of the electorate, support other democrats who do these things. Follow Mamdani and Lander's example or fade into nothingness.

Congratulations to New York City the home of the famous water for pizza dough

Cry more, fash freaks
