Mark it down to "surprising to some, but not me": Craig Greenberg totally swept West Louisville, and Shameka Parrish-Wright's strength were around Germantown and Clifton. IYKYK

I could not be more impressed by Zach Dembo. I was a strong supporter of Cherlynn Stevenson (she would have been a great congressperson), and I dismissed Dembo out of hand when I heard about his campaign. He really impressed throughout. I think he has a very legitimate chance to make it to DC.

My favorite inside baseball fact about the KY Elections is that the legislature moved to make the Metro Council/Metro Mayor non-partisan, but didn't mess with any other elections in Jefferson Co, leaving Shively, the tiny city in SW Louisville, as the only place with partisan city elections in KY

Friendly reminder that Tidal is cheaper than Spotify, pays artists more, and, well... isn't run by the dude who runs Spotify. Personally I also much prefer Tidal's algos but that's a YMMV thing. Anyway, it used to be way more expensive but it isn't anymore, and I think it's a better product.

I am excited about Will Stein and agree with other Kentucky fans than a change was for the best, but Mark Stoops was the best coach we ever had, and it's not close. That part of this really sucks.

Psaki: Comer was a little slow to move forward with the subpoenas, at least in my view. Moskowitz: That’s actually his regular speed. He’s just a little slow in general.

I have no inside info on this at all but based on reports of who mayors have entertained in the past few years, Louisville worked hard to get one of these franchises. Alas, they seem to only go to places with existing NBA teams

My main takeaway from the NYC Dem primary is that anybody can win if they work hard. I don't always agree with DSA people but they are the hardest working part of the Democratic coalition. Also it helps if your main opponent had to resign in disgrace after a sexual abuse scandal.

Rahm Emanuel neatly demonstrates the basic error that Democrats make when they try to step back from social issues: IT’S THE REPUBLICANS, NOT THEM, who are “talking about bathrooms and locker rooms.” You can’t fix this by changing the topic, only by defending your ideas and going on offense.

It'll be a decade or more before we'll get a good estimate about how many deaths occurred because of the destruction of US AID but when it's all figured out I expect Elon Musk to rival Stalin, Hitler, Pol Pot etc in the ratio of total deaths caused to total days in power.

Trump's education cuts steal $2,000 from EVERY Kentucky student — and even more from our vulnerable children. His administration punishes children in poverty, with disabilities, and experiencing homelessness the hardest. Don't let the KY GOP lead you to believe they care about Kentucky's kids.

As Trump cuts federal funds, here's which Kentucky school districts could be hit hardest
Federal funding makes up anywhere from 2% to 35% of per student spending at school districts across Kentucky.

The KY GOP has a pattern of complete carelessness and it shows 🙄 This 2025 session, Democratic Sen. @cassieforky.bsky.social stepped up by sponsoring and passing SB 120 on child abuse training and reporting in schools. Who really cares about Kentucky’s kids? Kentucky Democrats.

There's a lyric from the Ben Folds song "Still Fighting It" that goes "You're so much like me, I'm sorry" and I really resonated with that while watching my child lose it while the carnival was packing up before she got her balloon animal, despite receiving assurances she would get her butterfly.

Happy Trans visibility day. I advocate for trans people because they are my friends. I think if more people who had thoughts about trans people actually took the time to get to know trans people, we would be in a much better place.
