Commentators like @ettingermentum.bsky.social endorsed Nate Silver's unsupported take that "blueskyism" is somehow a (1) thing and (2) thread to Demcrats' chances if they don't somehow disavow it. Anyways, these are the conversations going on in his replies on X.

A racist and antisemetic argument between two racist antisemtites on twitter. I will not transcribe it out of disgust, so trust me here.

The party of people cut off for their awful views opposes cutting people off for their awful views.

Survey from "the argument" showing Harris voters are far more likely to support cutting off family over politics than trump voters.

One of my all-time favourite recipes, invented by yours truly.

Salmon Stew
Ingredients:
1 T garlic chili paste (can be substituted by adding more fresh garlic, chili powder, and cayenne)
3 cloves garlic
2 limes
1 can coconut milk
1 good-sized slab of salmon
1 bunch cilantro, chopped
¼ white onion, chopped
2-3 green onions (can be substituted for an additional ¼ white onion).
Salt
1 tomato chopped (or half a can of chunky tomatoes)

Recipe:
Crush or food process together 2 cloves of garlic, juice of 1.5 limes, salt (to taste), half the chopped bunch of cilantro, the green onions (or half the white onion), and the chili-lime paste.
Remove the salmon from its skin and cut it into chunks. Size to your preference, it tends to fall apart in the stew.
Marinade the salmon, , the tomatoes, and the white onion in the food processed/crushed mix for half an hour. Add cold water as needed to cover the salmon.
Reserve one clove of garlic, the remaining half of the chopped cilantro, and the remaining half lime.
Put a large stew pan on medium / medium low heat and add about a tablespoon of neutral cooking oil.
Once the oil is hot, remove the salmon chunks from the marinade and cook them in the oil, stirring occasionally. Reserve the marinade to be added later.
If you like a thicker stew, add 1-2 tbsp of cornstarch to the cooking salmon and stir well.
Once the salmon is browned, add the can of coconut milk and the remaining marinade. Simmer until the broth is as thick as desired. Add more water if it thickens too quickly (before the salmon can cook).
Just before serving, turn off the heat and grate in the remaining clove of garlic, add the remaining cilantro and the juice of the remaining lime and stir. Salt to taste.
Serve over white rice.

The NYT piece, after describing how democrats had prevented the redraw up until now by refusing to return, inexplicably claims they have "no power." They have power, they're just selfish cowards who refuse to use it.

The walkout did not change the raw political dynamics in Republican-dominated Texas, and Democrats remained in the situation they were in before they left: powerless to permanently stop the new map from being adopted. When that happens, as expected, they have vowed to challenge its legality.

The premise here is incorrect. Democrats have loudly *claimed* to be promoting popular policies to become popular but have, in fact, largely promoted unpopular conservative policies.

Malcolm Harris
@BigMeanInternet on twitter
What do liberals think the Democrats should do about being so incredibly unpopular right now, despite having followed a strategy that's focused on doing popular things so as to become popular?

LinkedIn sent me a notification - for an account I don't follow - to see this post. This kind of shit should be as embarrassing as posting porn on linkedin.

Edward Owen-Burge

It has been easy for people to laugh at this.
"She's not real. It's too far. My kids knew straight away!"
But how many professionals on LinkedIn use - almost rely - on AI tools every day?
To sense check.
To shape decisions.
To act as a sounding board.
And it's the same reason 150k people follow Mia.
They feel a connection.
Of course we know she's not real.
We know it's not real when we ask ChatGPT to write/design/create/draw it's not real either.
But we need an output and we feel the connection.
And that's ok.
It's ok to seek a new perspective.
It's ok to be unsure and want non-judgmental advice.
It's ok to want someone in your corner.
The difference is, they need to be real.
Not artificial. Not automated. Not performing. Just honest, human, listening, challenging,
and helping you think better.

The media is now telling you that they are the propaganda wing of capitalism and will not tolerate dissent. (Note that he only says dissent "within these pillars" will be tolerated.)

While Dem leaders vote for Trump nominees, repeat Trump's racism about Mamdani, promise to work with Trump, and support Trump's wars, the DSA is charged with 'working with the GOP to destroy america.'

Democrats are such fucking losers. Republicans can firebomb their house and they'll go on the news saying "both sides are bad! I oppose all violence!" They tried to kill your fucking family, man. They tried to burn them to death. And you're messaging centrism? Shame.

Screenshot from MSN article.

Shapiro said during the press conference that the attack was "targeted."

"We do know that this attack was targeted... this type of violence is not okay," the governor said. "And I don't give a damn if it's coming from one particular side or the other, directed at one particular party or another," he added.

Total malpractice for the @nytimes.com to put Gaetz's pedophilia in the caption and not the headline.

Subhead: It also accused the Florida Republican of having sexual relations with an underage girl. Gaetz resigned from the House and withdrew as President-elect Donald Trump’s attorney general nominee before the report’s expected release.

Made a zoomer-friendly timeline of the European dark ages for my wife's history students:

476: Western Rome Falls – It's so over
640: Justinian makes Eastern Rome a superpower – we're so back
730: Moors invade Iberia (Spain) – It's so over
800: Charles Martel defeats the Moors, and his grandson Charlemagne becomes Holy Roman Emperor – we're so back
899: The Vikings invade the British Isles and conquer half of Britain – It's so over
1000: Rome, Florence, and Venice become city-states – we're so back
1204: The Crusades happen, destabilizing the Levant and sacking Constantinople (a Christian city!) – It's so over
1215: The Magna Carta is signed in England, the first European guarantee of rights – We've never been more back
1250: The Mongols invade and conquer large parts of Eastern Europe – It's never been more over
1347-1453: The Hundred Years’ War between England and France coincides with the Black Death, which kills more than 1 out of 3 Europeans – It's so over it never even started
1440: The typewriter is invented – We never left
1453: Byzantium and the Eastern Roman Empire fall for the final time – It truly never even began

South Korean lawmakers had to break through police barricades and crawl through windows to vote down matrial law: www.washingtonpost.com/world/2024/1...

SEOUL — South Korean lawmakers are filing into the National Assembly after Speaker Woo Won-Shik asked all members to arrive Tuesday night for a plenary session to respond to the martial law declaration. The law can be lifted with a majority vote by the parliament, which means 151 lawmakers would need to vote in favor.

About 160 lawmakers have arrived, some breaking through police barriers and entering through windows, according to South Korean media.
