so I went to r/climbing to check the reaction to Honnold free soloing Taipei 101 and the top post on the subreddit is a picture of Alex Pretti outdoors next to a rock face with the title “ICU nurse Alex Pretti, killed by ICE agents in Minneapolis today”

it has 56000 upvotes
My god, Alex Honnold actually climbed Taipei 101 free solo. He did it.

“you don’t have a path to a cushy tech job” has been a not insignificant contributor to the rise of crypto scams among that group I think

we’ve been over this

we just did this in Massachusetts

they’re not gonna leave, they’ll whine and bitch and moan and eventually this will raise more money than expected because nowhere they go is actually like the place they’re leaving
Billionaires are considering cutting or reducing their ties to California by the end of the year because of a proposed ballot measure that could tax the state’s wealthiest residents.

this is always why the “we have to beat Elon on his own turf” arguments fell flat

he showed over and over again that he would personally intervene to suppress anyone he didn’t like, you can’t win that game

becoming the preeminent Jeff Epstein Did Nothing Wrong truther when Epstein-as-ur-villain is maybe the one thing everyone can agree with is, I guess, the holy grail of being a contrarian asshole
Michael Tracey claims that journalists tell him privately all the time that they're becoming more and more skeptical of the Jeffrey Epstein accusations, but they can't say so in public because they're afraid of people calling them pedophiles.

once again I am asking for a democratic party that actually does what republicans claim they will do
Trump: "The Democrats are gonna terminate the filibuster as soon as they have a chance and then they're gonna approve DC and Puerto Rico as states. They get 4 more senators, 12 more congressmen, like 40 electoral votes ... you don't want to see me cry."

“if she’d just done X she would have won”

no

I have plenty of critiques of the campaign but ultimately the entire god damn country just went right by five points at least, everywhere, despite whatever you call Trump’s campaign

none of us know how she could have won and that’s the problem

they interview a million Trump voters in diners but they never interview ex-Evangelicals, who could explain exactly what’s happening in excruciating detail

Beshear is another one

bsky.app/profile/rinc...
Andy Beshear looks good on paper - deep red state governor, has effectively parried culture war attacks

unfortunately I have seen him give a speech and I simply do not believe he has the juice to stand out on a crowded national stage
Beshear maybe? He’s been very good on trans and other queer rights if memory serves

the president of the united states regularly goes on incredibly embarrassing unhinged posting sprees full of AI slop and somehow the entire political system just reacts like the This Is Fine dog

I know we say this about a lot these days but "ross ulbricht starts drug marketplace, tries to hire hitmen, goes to jail for life, is pardoned by trump and appears at his convention with a 'become ungovernable' background in support of the literal president" is a little on the nose
LMAO this guy is being featured at Trumpapalooza because Trump pardoned him
