Trump's racism is not new, but I do want to talk about something interesting. And that is the way American fascists have been using social media to try to splinter the black vote and dissuade Black Americans from coming to the defense of Haitian and Somali people.

This was a pretty small protest, but it honestly seemed incredibly effective. I don’t think that they’ve done this before, the only time I’ve been to a protest at this building was on a weekend. I really don’t think these workers liked being shamed!

Just did some number crunching using latest (Oct 1) ECMWF seasonal data, and I must say that I've never seen such high predictive confidence in a very wet California winter. This is a truly extraordinary forecast amid a record-strength El Niño event. [Thread: please read to end.]

Nextdoor is a different kind of cesspool. First non-meta-product social account I decided to just straight up delete. I want no memory of having participated in that nonsense. Besides, the (very) few sane people I enjoyed reading there are here anyway.

If you have sons, talk to them about Cornell. Every single young man in the group chat had the opportunity to intervene, and every single one failed that test. Teach your sons bravery. So if they're ever (god forbid) in that position, they know they MUST react and to put a stop to it.

This is not a "win for our side" and we must reject this framing. It wasn't for nothing, Molly Jong-Fast. Jeff Bezos' goal was to destroy its reputation and neuter it completely as an institution. His project has been wildly successful. Bezos is laughing at us, folks. He is the one who's winning.

I continue to be astounded we take any of these so-called "anti-zionist" posers seriously. If they really believed anything they (anonymously) posted, they'd have already gotten on planes to Tel Aviv and taken some risk, undertaken some sacrifice, to actually stop what's happening in Gaza.

Couldn't agree more. It reminds me of the discourse around "Piss Christ" back in the 90's. It's exhausting and should be unnecessary.

There’s a reason why one shouldn’t expect astronomers to have to come down from their telescopes and debate every idiot who comes along to claim that the moon is made out of cheese. This is like that, but also really fucking racist.

Sam woke up and was like “let’s go after a black woman for no reason” today—and then goes onto to say that if anyone takes issue with it that THEY are the gop psyop. Shaming black voters is, well, not very smart.

Didn’t share it when the article broke yesterday but his campaign responded & yeah that’s not how perception works. He needs to bail, the other guy needs to be dropped, or he needs to swerve & turn this into a “Sister Souljah” moment which basically everything up to this point suggests he won’t do.

This is another winning approach should be the future of the DSA--YIMBYist and forward looking, idealistic in aspiration but pragmatic in execution. Trouble is, this is not compatible with Megan Romer's politics. If the DSA wants to capitalize on this moment, the grownups need to seize control.

The irony is that a record wet winter is certainly *possible,* and probably more likely than the background probability this year. But it's simply not a specific outcome that we can predict, as such, months in advance--"Super" El Niño or not.
