I hate how the Dem consultant class has such a hard-on for cynical republicans.

Every now and then a play has a scream so blood curdling that the refs should have no reaction other than to blow the whistle. I have no idea how play kept going.

I could hear her scream from my seat all the way in the other end of the field, 30 rows up the bleachers from the corner spot.

Or we could just arrest and convict the people responsible for January 6 and then not pardon them.

Want to avoid another January 6? Send the people responsible for January 6, especially the instigators, to prison and keep them there.

Did any of the pseudoscience and professionalism theater make the experience any less morbid than what it objectively is: state sanctioned murder?

I just look at a mirror when I need to see a Brazilian Natural. And then I realized why cosmetic surgery is such a big industry back home. #RIPIvoPitanguy

Lula has chosen to ignore a succession plan. There are no heirs. This is on him.

And just one thing about polarization. If half of the voters hate your fucking guts and will never vote for you, you are doing SOMETHING very wrong. It's true of Republicans, Democrats, petistas, bolsonaristas, you name it.

This didn't sit well with the middle class and retirees, who just like in the US, mistakenly see themselves as closer to the wealthy than to the poor. And the electoral consequences are (sadly) hitting Brazil and will (hopefully) hit the US next month.

This is in no way a defense of Bolsonaro, but the parallels between Trump and Lula in the days preceding the elections show waning cults of personality relying on cheap populism. In Brazil, Lula bumped social assistance payments by 15% three weeks ago. Trump is sending out checks.

Sweet Bobby @sweetbobby.bsky.social · 05/10/2026
That lack of depth in the bench resulted in an absolute trouncing: Bolsonaro-aligned candidates destroyed lefties in the Congressional races. It hardly matters if Lula wins or not because of today. It was a bloodbath. If he wins, he'll have no room to maneuver.

Lula has no succession plan. His lone heir apparent got his ass handed to him for the fourth consecutive election. He runs a cult of personality. He is extremely popular, but he is the Workers Party. There are few significant left wing politicians running for State or Senate races.

Sweet Bobby @sweetbobby.bsky.social · 05/10/2026
I loathe Bolsonaro, but the notion that the media is manufacturing scandals against Lula is laughable. I am among the 10+ million or so Brazilian voters who chose to vote for neither, anticipating the runoff election. Yes, I am voting for Lula in the runoff election, but he is to blame for today.

Second time Urbaniak popped in my feed today. On Instagram the algorithm fed me Dr. Venture introducing Dean to prog rock and Roger Dean. God is telling me to rewatch Review again. #pancakesdivorcepancakes

I remember moving from a violent city in Brazil to our college town. I had culture shock realizing I could stumble drunkenly at 2am without any fear. And then I felt shock again realizing that women did not have that freedom in a place where I could not have felt safer. That stuck with me.
