That party can go in the bin.

Having a state is the only thing that keeps us out of future gas chambers

I don’t care where you are in the world if you are Jewish you are only alive because Israel exists.

I don’t support Israeli politics as they stand, but I know my life relies on it existing

Every single time this rings so fucking hollow to us is the problem.

Even in the most favourable view of her position, you're still lecturing trans people for being too angry over issues that concern us *deeply.*

I understand the perspective but this is just more respectability politics.

The system will take a few days to come together... and then get moving.
Here is a note about it (future Isaias) and a Pacific cyclone, the eighth Cat 5 in the world this year, from @bhensonweather.bsky.social & me!

Alejandro G. Iñárritu knows that “Digger” is polarizing. “I prefer that to the lukewarm reception,” he says of the climate-change satire with Tom Cruise.

this is just one spectrum of the debate that i think is relevant to understanding contemporary Israeli politics and how these differing schools have *fundamentally* oppositional politics

"Sports might be the last remaining American cultural institution that spans our political divides," write Todd Rogers, Audrey Feldman and Ben Valenta.

Americans are divided in their politics but not as sports fans.

@rachebitecofer.bsky.social curses more than usual in this essay, and I don’t blame her

I don’t know whether as many of my friends on the left flank of American politics will abstain once again this time, but damn it, I hope they don’t

Being a Canadian rn is watching the LPC collaborate w nazi scum, while promoting climate crisis accelerationism and genocide while smugly pretending they're better off than the US, despite being on only 5-10 years behind them on the fascist timeline

Adding a couple of thoughts about this convo, which really was very good. With Talarico, Hamilton and others, do Dems suddenly "get" religion? Do they need to, in order to win the midterms or create a new moral politics? No, I don't think so.
Let's do this again: Great conversation with @aselrod.bsky.social about the future of the GOP, and how Christianity plays into it. One thing about why some cons. Christians are turned off by ICE goon squads: hospitality to the stranger is one of the most explicit commandments in scripture. 1/2
New Fox poll shows Trump coalition collapsing in Texas. GOP is sinking money into Iowa and Kansas. The horrors of Late-Stage Trumpism are creating space for a new anti-corruption, anti-cruelty politics to emerge.

On the pod, @aselrod.bsky.social is brilliant on this:
