I don’t think this is exactly what’s going on, or all that’s going on. It’s not that Republicans are constructing an elaborate psychological defense against evidence that Trump is a rapist. It’s that they like that he’s a rapist, and they like rape: it enacts the power of the strong over the weak.
The vile attacks on Amy Acton need to be seen in the context of a party that *needs* people to believe women fabricating sexual assaults is common as rainwater. Because it’s pretty much the only way to evade the conclusion that the president is a rapist.

I’m not a political journalist, so was gladly surprised at the community I found here last night. To Americans anxious about the upcoming elections, a key thing we learned in Brazil that might help you: DO NOT engage with the far-right online. Don’t share rage bait. Amplify your people. Ignore them.

The youngest to be shot was 11 years old. ELEVEN YEARS OLD. In 2026, in the United States of America, the leading cause of death for children is a bullet. The victims and families are in my prayers. But they are also in my actions. We must end gun violence.

Guys, I actually won the Met lottery! Going to see the opera tonight for the first time ever (La Boheme!)! More public funding for the arts and opportunities for everyone, rich and poor, to enjoy the work of real artists. Thank you!
Never been to the opera before? Now’s your chance. We’re giving away 70,000 free tickets to the @metopera at the iconic Lincoln Center. Go to on.nyc.gov/opera to enter the lottery. There’s not a bad seat in the house.

Ossoff is on fire, and it’s great to see after years of obnoxious waffling and triangulating from Democrats.
Ossoff: "At last week's debate, he couldn't even bring himself to say he's stop the production of neo-Nazi propaganda from his own house. Did you see that? I told Mike we could shake on it. All he had to stop neo-Nazi propaganda from his house for 3 weeks. He refused! ... a crumbling little bigot"

Ossoff: "It's the most corrupt administration of all time & everybody knows it. While the crook president & his crook family rake in billions from all over the world, you pay more for everything... they lied us into war & spent most of the last year covering up for the world's most famous pedophile"

If you would try to win by abandoning trans people (or any targeted group) you can save this “we need to win” talk; there is no “we.” I am about solidarity, and you have chosen anti-solidarity. You are not any “we” I recognize. You are the enemy I’m trying to defeat. Beating you is how my “we” wins.

this is how you have to treat these guys. with genuine contempt. your genuine contempt makes their smarmy fake contempt look weak and inauthentic. it immediately exposes their game. these guys are just losers who have sworn revenge for every humiliation. humiliate them again

I stopped into the @justinjpearson.bsky.social headquarters in Memphis to thank both Justin and his volunteers. He is one of our great modern civil rights leaders and he is going to win!

Let’s learn from past crashes and be ready w bold transformative demands. No AI bail outs. No impunity.
When the AI bubble pops, we can’t repeat past corporate bail outs. We need to be ready with policies that protect ordinary people and hold tech execs accountable. We also need to talk about nationalizing AI companies — or maybe even abolishing them altogether… @astra.bsky.social @theguardian.com

“Duran charts the transference of enormous wealth into political power and builds a strong, evidence-based case for the basic incompatibility of billionaires & democracy. He doesn’t pull any punches in this appeal for us to wake up and fight back before it’s too late.” www.wired.com/gallery/best...

Tobacco, sugar (rum), coffee, tea, spices — these were the original drug economy and drove development of the Western Hemisphere. Columbus started a drug commodity boom that lasted for centuries, made Europeans and colonizers unimaginably wealthy, and launched the transatlantic slave trade.
For Indigenous Peoples Day, here’s a talk I gave explaining how Columbus was basically the original trans-Atlantic drug trafficker. You will be never think about the colonization of this hemisphere in the same way again. The “drug” economy powered hemispheric growth (and enslavement) for centuries:

listen i won’t shed a single tear for kim or any of the women who work for trump, but it remains interesting that only the women in his orbit suffer consequences for being pieces of shit
AP: "A senior U.S. official said Sunday that Trump and Rubio are 'extremely pissed off' by Guilfoyle’s reported conduct and would likely decide on what action to take this week after Monday’s Columbus Day holiday."

China's also the global leader in renewable energy, but where's our competitive drive in that?
I’m sick of this tired talking point from Trump and now Darline Graham… “China has already said they want to be the global leader… If we don’t build data centers for 2 years… we are going to be in trouble.” 📌 The US already has 4,978 more data centers than China.
