Costco and Trader Joes are yin and yang. Together they form a harmonious balance. One sells big piles of normal food, the other sells small piles of weird food. These are the two food piles people need

fuck these nazis

his schick plays well with riverdale orthodox jews, who are EXTREMELY different than the brooklyn hasidic jews who tend to vote in blocs. it would be so on-brand for the democrats to not realize this difference tho.

As always, @chriswarcraft.bsky.social is a real one.

especially trump. new yorkers (by and large) see through his shtick, and he yearns for our acceptance that he will never get. we see fraudsters like him on a daily basis, he just happens to have had a rich daddy. we know he’s dummy, and he hates us for it.

This is why you fight these cowards. The moment you stand up to them, they crumble. Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights. He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.

fReE sPeeCh!!!!!

Musk and his army of dipshits on Twitter keep pointing to Bill Clinton’s federal worker reduction in the 1990s to defend Trump. The difference? Congress passed a law that Clinton signed, he didn’t just get the nearest billionaire to illegally start dismantling the government based on his whims.

The lure of Elon’s alternate reality for his followers is so powerful that he will tell them that pulling books off shelves, deleting words from government websites, and banning programs for their kids based on words they used is all part of fighting back against censorship. And they just let him

yes i am an elder millennial how did you know

i know this is a short form platform but this is something i wrote two years ago that still knocks about in my head and my heart read it or don’t, i just wanted to share

SKEET THREAD: There’s a lot I could say about this argument, but since in the end it all boils down to this paragraph, let me just address this.

History buffs will know that every authoritarian leader eventually converges on some version of: "I *am* the state. I can not break the law, I am the law, the law is instantiated in me." Our march to authoritarianism so far has been excruciatingly by-the-book. Hitting every beat. No surprises.

The NYT “Is Birthright Citizenship REALLY Constitutional???” op-ed is the conservative legal movement in a nutshell: “Sure, the law is X, but what if it weren’t”-style academic backfill for conservative policy advocacy. Dogshit writing, fantasyland analysis, embarrassing for everyone involved.

the best analogy i can use is wework: at the height of the hype (2018-19ish) every office deal narrative mentioned wework- as a tenant or potential tenant, as competition, or simply as a measure of that city’s market (there are x weworks in this city!) 1/🧵

What these nihilistic vandals are doing to dismantle science & medicine—generations of expertise & public service & life improving benefits—is cultural revolution level national self harm. No foreign foe could inflict such brutal damage & senseless suffering on US so fast & effectively & unresisted.

lmao

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

Not exaggerating when I say that the path back is going to be built on people in positions of influence regaining their sense of self-respect. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/02...

Adams must be removed. The city cannot sustain being governed for nearly a year by a Mayor who is being coerced by Trump admin in order to escape charges. This corruption poses a real threat to the people of the city. He should have resigned a while ago, but will not. So it’s time for him to go.

Repeating myself, but the idea of Trump & Musk as "masculine" remains bizarre. They're just the toxic and immature parts with none of the traditional "masculine" virtues. They're whiny, entitled, unreliable, dishonest, self-absorbed, never take responsibility, never put duty over self-interest, etc.

This is like a bank robber getting to fire the cops and disable the alarms just before he strolls into the bank lobby.

it is genuinely incredible that all you have to do is scratch the surface and it becomes clear that each of these guys is a huge piece of shit

Musk killed these people.

it’s getting very hard for me to talk to my friends, they all seem to live in that universe 😞
