National soccer media needs to do a better job covering what’s going on in Austin. Entire fan section walks out mid match and it’s absolute crickets out-there. If you’re covering the match and focusing on Nashville’s win or Austin’s loss you are not doing your job.

Ossoff is definitely not listening to Yglesias/Klein/PodSave reactionary centrist crowd, he does not think his marginal voter is a white-supremacist, and that is what makes him such an attractive candidate to the vast majority of US who are not white-supremacists.

I think this is part of why they're so scared of the DSA. They're used to the democrats treading water and answering to rich donors who just want a less vulgar status quo than the Republicans. Actual reform breaks kayfabe.

This is sexual violence as a form of terrorism. It is political violence and it is chilling and horrific, and AOC was absolutely right to be terrified that the goons (now pardoned) laying siege to the capital would rape her if they found her. Small changes won't fix this. FLIP THE TABLE NOW

The government *still* isn’t tracking how often immigration agents detain U.S. citizens. We are. 500+ Americans have been handcuffed, held at gunpoint or held against their will in Trump’s second term. Our tally is almost certainly an undercount. THREAD (content warning: violence) ⬇️

Is your house overrun with singing, dancing skeletons?
A PSA style comic
Big text at the top says
Is your house overrun with singing, dancing skeletons?
Call 1-888-SKELETON today"

In the center, there's a concerned looking person holding a phone while skeletons that look sort of like the skeletons from the Silly Symphonies cartoon The Skeleton Dance dance in the background.
The person says to the phone
"is this 1-888-skeleton?"
"Yes, we have skeleton," comes the reply.
"I don't understand- do you get rid of the skeletons or bring more skeletons?"
"Yes," says the operator.
"What? D... D... Damnit," says the caller.

Big text at the bottom says "operators are standing by! Call now!"

Welp, it was a good run here in the second half of the season Austin FC. But "we offered her a complimentary t-shirt" is not quite doing it for me here for some reason. If she's banned for 12 months, maybe the rest of us should take a 12-month break too. www.sacurrent.com/news/texas-n...

A familiar story for anyone who follows @volts.wtf. “The Chronicle spoke to more than half a dozen grid experts…to try to understand why Texas’s notoriously unreliable grid had a remarkably reliable summer. The answer was unanimous: solar panels and batteries.”
houstonchronicle.com
Texas shattered energy demand records this summer. Here's why the grid held up.
Texas repeatedly broke electricity demand records this summer, but ERCOT avoided emergencies as booming solar and battery capacity helped keep the grid stable.

"They're not misunderstanding the film; they're co-opting a message"
Screencap from the interview linked in the quoted post

Marlow Stern (the interviewer):  You have one of the most renowned replies in Twitter history. Elon Musk tweeted out, “Take the red pill,” then Ivanka Trump enthusiastically wrote, “Taken!” to him, and then you replied, “Fuck both of you.” I’m curious how you feel about the co-opting of “The Matrix” by those on the right who don’t really seem to understand its messaging.

Lilly Wachowski: I mean, I can’t sit in a room and explain the movie to every single person who watches it. Even if I did sit in a room with Elon Musk and Ivanka Trump — yikes — it doesn’t matter. They’re not misunderstanding the film; they’re co-opting a message. And that’s what fascists do: They co-opt the messages of progressives and use it to their benefit to confuse and obfuscate what is going on and the intention of their ideology. They do it with everything. They do it with Martin Luther King Jr. Look at how they’ve changed the idea of what antisemitism is.
