Yes! Go VOTE, but act like we’re down 12%!! This is VERY important. Turn out like this is the election to save our democracy, because it is. #VoteBlue ⬆️ and ⬇️ the ballot folks.

Everyone keeps asking me how I’m feeling about early voting so far. I’m feeling like nobody *actually* knows anything, and this is the most important midterm of our lives. I’d rather be us than them, but we can’t get comfortable. We can’t get complacent. Go vote like we’re down 3%.

“Donald Trump is a racist, awful piece of crap. He is a cancer to this world - one of world history’s most disgusting and despicable viruses to ever walk this planet. He foments so much hate and division. What a sick sex predator deviant he is!” Ben Meiselas The Meidas Touch 25 Oct 2026 #Trump

TikTok investor Jeff Yass avoided paying $1 billion in taxes while largely escaping public scrutiny. He then poured that money into campaigns to cut taxes and support election deniers. From the ProPublica archives:

I see we're having a debate about whether it's okay to go back to "X," the site owned by a trillionaire fascist who is currently bankrolling the GOP's midterm, throttled Ukraine's war effort, and still winkingly allows vast amounts of CSAM on his service Answer: No, what the fuck is wrong with you

Gang, I cannot stress how excited I am for you to hear Midnight Radio. It's been a weird, punk rock, self-funded, dream project. Season 1 is just insane, with a crazy cast I can't believe I got to work with. You've never heard anything quite like it. Episodes drop beginning Oct 22nd!

This is your occasional reminder that generative "AI" in particular could have been developed on public domain materials and/or licensed and compensated works but the major players intentionally, methodically and systemically chose to steal labor from working creative folks instead

All Republicans have to offer voters in the midterms is failure, lies, corruption, cover ups, fear mongering, name calling, enrichment of oligarchs, christian nationalism, racism, data centers everywhere, flock cameras, higher prices, new wars and fake bribes. Hell of a platform.

Even more blessed is the country with a separation of church and state. And a secular military that is run by reason and morality instead of fiat and insane ideology.

Still waiting for the convictions and incarcerations of the Epstein class. Still waiting for Mitch McConnell's Congressional seat to be filled with a functional human. VOTE out the GOP.

I remain undeterred in my fight for the release of the entirety of the unredacted Epstein Files. We just have to keep pushing and pushing them with everything we’ve got.

MI Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed unloaded on Trump over soaring gas prices and the war: “When you’re the president of the United States and people are struggling with gas, you don’t sit there and talk about your new helipad or your drapes in a ballroom.” “You actually go and do your damn job.”

A U.S. senator has called on foreign leaders to impose sanctions on President Donald Trump and Secretary of State Marco Rubio as they wage a campaign to dismantle the International Criminal Court. It is extraordinary for such a call to come from a sitting member of congress.

ANOTHER boat strike. (They’re still doing these. While Hegseth was busy jinxing A&M). Still not authorized by Congress. Still not supported by most Americans. Still happening.

Still waiting for signs of life from Mitch McConnell. Still waiting for convictions and incarcerations of the pedos and pervs listed in the Epstein files. VOTE out the GOP.
