My much smarter than me wife had this observation about AI use. People who can't draw or write or create are jealous that they don't have that spark in them. And it isn't something that can be taught. And they're really mad about it so they tell themselves this is the same as creating.

Centrist Dems and pundits going straight to the Islamaphobic playbook was inevitable because they're hateful pieces of shit and are desperately trying to cling to power just like the GOP. Same exact people.

Yes. The tactic that is most usefully used against socialist ideas has always been ridicule because all attempts to argue against it in good faith can’t hold up.

Scripted television copaganda carries a lot of weight in our culture. It feels so good to see cops bending the rules in pursuit of justice, and solving the crimes, and putting the bad guys away, but it is nothing but fantasy and we have been eating it whole hog for decades.

Sheryl Weikal says Prosecute ICE @leftistlawyer.com · 10/01/2026
Too many people are trying to differentiate between ICE and police. I will hold your hand as I say this: Police in the US treat marginalized people the way ICE treats everyone. They're far more similar than you want to admit. Defunding the police and abolishing ICE are the same fight.

1/ Seattle! 2000 ballots need signatures (updates or didn't sign)!! Tell your friends to check their ballot status here: info.kingcounty.gov/kcelections/... And if you have time between now & Nov. 14, volunteer to help cure votes: linktr.ee/Wilsonforsea... ("Ballot Chasing for Katie Wilson")
A bar graph from King County Elections showing the number of challenged ballots by age, narrowed down to the "City of Seattle" races (Mayor, attorney, etc).  City of Seattle has 2,086 challenged ballots, about half were unsigned, the other half the signature didn't match, and 14 ballots need a witness signature.  For the 18-24 age, 316 didn't match, 238 unsigned. 25-34 age: 290 didn't match, 229 unsigned. 35-44 age: 207 didn't match, 198 unsigned.  45 - 54: 110 didn't match, 152 unsigned.  55 - 64 age: 66 didn't match, 135 unsigned.  65+ age: 52 didn't match, 195 unsigned.

Very important to not fall for the feigned helplessness of neoliberals in control of blue state governments: Fully administering food stamps would cost Washington at most 1% of its entire budget, and I have to believe it’d be even less for New York, California, Illinois, et al.

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion. As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

Americans are being conditioned to think of crime as an urban issue. Ask why. Alabama's murder rate is far higher than New York City's. Urban crime is not worse than rural crime. It's just more visible. In cities everything is more visible. So be careful what you blame city leaders for.

One of the many, many defects of our parochial seven-district city council system is that council members can substitute "community feedback" (the political views house owners express at the meetings they overwhelmingly dominate) for what's best for the city. Get rid of districts!
