A governor cannot be considered a simple "local politician". He is the leader of a state calling for "fellow Democrats" to ignore the will of the people and run a conservative Democratic candidate in the general election.

STATEMENT BY GOVERNOR DAVID PATERSON ON NEW YORK CITY MAYORAL RACE

NEW YORK-Following a morning press conference outside of WABC Radio's studios calling for unity within the Democratic Party in advance of November's election, New York State's 55th governor, David Paterson, released the following statement. Paterson also previously served as Democratic State Party Chair.
"I have been very clear in my position that I simply do not believe Zohran Mamdani is the best person to lead New York City in these extremely turbulent times. We just saw a federal budget passed and signed that will create havoc on New Yorkers in the coming years in our education system, the health care community and for hard-working families already struggling to make ends meet. We cannot afford ideas without a plan for implementation or funding.
Mr. Mamdani ran a successful Primary campaign, with tremendous ads and a well-done social media strategy that engaged young voters in a way we have not seen to date. However, the General Election is a very different electorate that encompasses the entirety of the city. I truly believe my fellow Democrats will be doing a disservice to the people they wish to serve if they do not come together and decide to support whichever candidate has the most support among them in advance of November 4th.
We are living in a critically important time in our country's history and the most populous city in America will need true leadership to navigate this moment. That leadership will need to show itself in the coming months, before ballots are printed and voters start returning ballots by mail.
As public polls and surveys are revealed over these coming weeks, it is my hope and belief that the other candidates still in the race will come to the logical conclusion that New York City needs the most effective leader to navigate what comes next and that cannibalizing each other's support will be doing a disservice to the millions of people who call New York 'home'."

It is so unbelievably funny. And after 12 seasons the voice actor for the main squid got fired for posting racist shit... even though his character was a clear mockery of right-wing assholes who are dependent on government (welfare, etc) yet hate the government and others who take "handouts".

Firstly, he made a Facebook post, via Variety, that criticized singer Dolly Parton for wearing a Black
Lives Matter shirt. Here's what he
said, rather vulgarly:
"So, now this freak titted,
old Southern bimbo is
a BLM Lover? Remember,
slut, Rednecks made you
a Millionaire!"

Obviously a comment like that is
due for some backlash, and Stuart D. Baker had a response for that as well:
"HAVE FUN forsaking
your own race, culture
and heritage," he said
after telling any offended
"liberals" to unfriend him
if they didn't like what he
had to say.

They did a similar thing on Squidbillies. Dan Halen created a chicken that was 99% chicken wings with celery stalks for limbs. Eating it unfortunately caused cancer, and Halen couldn't figure out how to get it to "defecate its own to-go box"

A scene from the Adult Swim show Squidbillies where Dan Halen, local evil billionaire, serves the local sheriff a writhing mass of chicken wings that is actually a living chicken he genetically engineered. Restaurant is called "ain't nothing but a wing."

It was fucking hilarious that the voice actor actually turned out to be a right-wing, racist asshole so had to be cut from the last season for posting racist shit. Did he not understand the context of the show or that he was making jokes? Tbh it makes me like the show more

It's not my claim, and it is repulsive to attempt to identify something we read every day with blood libel. No one is buying those arguments anymore because they are used so inappropriately - they are weaponized against protestors.

Do people *really* believe this? RBG worship is one thing, but this is something else entirely

Skeet text:
I am so tired of people slamming titans like RBG just because of her age. She is an excellent role model. She championed women's reproductive health and rights. Age brings wisdom. She did not need to step aside. She kept this country out of the grips
of fascism and carried the torch of justice.

In retrospect, we now realize that being in your 80s and surviving multiple bouts of cancer is correlated with death. We also just learned that COVID is a communicable disease that is associated with death and that close gatherings should be avoided during a pandemic, especially by vulnerable people

I was added to a moderation list and I have no idea what it means. It selects people by "code"? Is it a positive list? Negative? Truly random (whatever that means) as claimed? Either way, I'm honored by the distinction

A "Moderation list" I was added to

if its not obvious, this list is *entirely* a joke and adds people basically at random.

Here is an actual turtle my wife actually took a picture of and told me all about, lol, which has me returning to this very dead thread. It's apparently a box turtle that lives under her parents' deck. They feed it strawberry tops they don't eat. It's been there for years, and they live DECADES.

That's something Democrats need to adjust for. None of those bullshit livestreams that Jeffries does that interest like 300 people on YouTube help. It's not just a problem with voters, Democrats have horrible intuitions and no clear message. But messages need to account for the failing US ed system

Those grad students also need financial packages. The hired faculty members would have to teach class(es), which need to meet minimum enrollment numbers to not be cancelled. Grad students generally need to TA for professional development... This would be a fucking nightmare of epic proportions.

I'm also talking about those people. It's extremely concerning that you're referring to them as "agitators", the term fascists have used to describe protestors both now and during the civil rights protests. It doesn't matter how peaceful protests are, they're never legitimate to those in power.

Utter bullshit. And you're not free to disagree with the point that a publicly traded company has a fiduciary responsibility to maximize profits for shareholders, that a public company's duty is perpetual growth. The government agreed that right to repair is indeed a right. You have bad opinions.
