Apparently this post is mainly about Swalwell. There are a bunch of other democrats running for governor of California, we do not need him

I was excited by the headline, but it turns out the city's promise is to bring "benches or leaning bars" to every bus stop. What good is a leaning bar to an elderly person waiting for the bus? ny1.com/nyc/all-boro...

A+ thread, with A+ comments: "Although Sliwa is good for a laugh, he can be really authentic at times" "Because, like Mamdani, he's a real New Yorker. He's a shitty New Yorker but he's one of us." "this is exactly what I tell people. There are two NYers in this race and Cuomo isn't one of them."

This is a sad example of Cuomo desperately trying to sound like a strong statesman against Trump without ever actually criticizing him. Points go to the reporter Mannarino for not letting go of the point www.youtube.com/watch?v=7XLb...

I never understand folks who complain abt how OTHER ppl protest. If you don’t like protesters to cuss or where frog suits, why don’t YOU go protest wearing a tuxedo and reciting the Magna Carta? No one’s stopping you, least of all the frogman, who will likely leap for joy for your involvement

The America we used to live in—the America we want to think we live in—is gone. We’ll have to build again.
We want to think that the repeated, widespread abuse of basic rights by DHS; the DOJ actions against former officials like James Comey and John Bolton; the presence of 2020 election deniers across congressional and executive branch leaders; the unconstitutional dismantling of federal agencies; the consolidation of old and new media under leadership favorable to Trump; the use of lawsuits and executive branch power to intimidate and silence critics; and the clear attempts to subvert the 2026 and 2028 elections; and Trump’s constant insinuation that he might seek a third term do not all in fact mean that we have crossed the threshold into a competitive authoritarian environment. 
But we have. We have passed through the veil. Whatever becomes of American liberal democracy in the near or distant future, it will be a resurrection and not a continuation.

One of the lessons I discuss in "On Tyranny": Listen for dangerous words.
Text card: Listen for dangerous words.
Be alert to the use of the words extremism and terrorism. Be alive to the fatal notions of emergency and exception. Be angry about the treacherous use of patriotic vocabulary.

SCOTUS has once again decided that Congress doesn't actually have any power, so can someone ask them "if Congress doesn't have the power of the purse and the president can fire Congressionally-appointed people without its permission, then why list this branch of government in the Constitution?"

i have said this before but when “getting rid of race in admissions” for the administration means “you can’t even try to reach out to underrepresented communities and encourage them to apply and if you do it is illegal discrimination against white people” then the actual goal here is segregation

A friend of mine was on Charlie Kirk's "watch list" of Black professors. She received so many death and rape threats that her university offered her a security detail for the walk to class. This is Kirk's legacy. You would never know it from reading all of these legacy newspaper op-eds about him.

This is the best product listing copy I’ve ever read
Nothing lasts forever, and that includes the Roman Empire. 

The Fall of Rome-Scented Candle smells like cypress trees and red wine. Light it and watch the Roman forum melt into a puddle of wax while you quietly contemplate the impermanence of civilizations and/or candles.

Do you think individual Romans understood that their civilization was collapsing? Or did it happen so gradually that they were able to ignore the warning signs—international trade breaking down, the senate becoming a rubber stamp for the supreme leader, and political violence becoming expected during transfers of power?

It’s hard to say, because it’s impossible to imagine being in that kind of situation. In any event—hope you enjoy the candle!
