I never want to hear a non voting leftist say anything ever again.
Scoop: Zohran Mamdani has been meeting privately with union leaders, urgently talking up the need for a labor-aligned or leftist candidate to run for president, people familiar with the talks tell me.
He's arguing that progressives can't afford to squander their midterm momentum.
Behind closed doors, Mamdani has also said he's uncertain whether AOC will launch a White House run, the sources said.

I’m confused are these people cheating or no?
The language makes them sound like they are both divorced but the wording is unclear.
“We met on OkCupid,” Merritt Tierce writes. “He was a handsome, accomplished economics professor, and I was in New York for the shoot of an episode of the final season of ‘Orange Is the New Black,’ ” Merritt Tierce writes. Tierce is a novelist, a memoirist, and was a writer for the Netflix series. The economist was from that élite class of European men for whom it’s nothing to read two novels a week, for pleasure and erudition, in addition to going about high-level professional work, raising children, and practicing some intense sport. The two began an affair, which lasted months, until he told her, “You and I are not going to fall in love and that’s what you and I are looking for.” Tierce details the time they spent together, the concessions she made to remain in his life, and the ever-complicated calculus of modern dating: newyorkermag.visitlink.me/ai…

I wish Charlie was alive because the joy I’d feel watching him eat this much shit would have been beautiful.

I think just generally I’m fiercely loyal to people when they prove I can trust them.
Which is why cheating feels so bizarre to me especially when it’s someone you’ve known for 40 years.

I don’t get why people get so mad at this because I wouldn’t date any of these people.
Why are you getting mad over someone you don’t want.

I think it’s interesting how most pollsters seemed to have not considered that voters in key states would also just vote blue straight down the ballot without thinking.
The notion that someone would vote for Talarico and then not vote for Gina seems so obvious in hindsight.

The ultimate lesson of the midterms is when you think you’ve won, do not get cocky about it.
Republicans blew a generational lead by insisting on theatrics.
Hopefully the democrats will not make the same mistake.

Half of the gender slop tweets I see from girls are just lesbians saying they don't understand being straight.
I mean yeah nobody expects you to.

2020 felt like magic then the next 6 years were me slowly losing faith in my country.
anyone else feel like there’s been a societal vibe shift since [time period when I was young]? things felt more optimistic when I was 15-20 years old with no responsibilities and limitless potential. hmmmm why might that be. what happened there. society must’ve collapsed I guess!

Part of Election Day confusion is people see numbers like R+10 and assume it’s bad.
In reality, it was like R+20 last time and that’s a big deficit across the board.

I really don’t want to vote tmrw because Illinois will go blue anyways but I’ll do it for the cause.

All the dudes worrying about their gfs on Halloween are doing too much.
Unless she’s going to frat parties then you probably shouldn’t care.
Going to a bar nowadays is just you dancing in a circle with your friends and not speaking to anyone else.

I don’t want a girlfriend but I feel like it would be good for the plot at my current stage in life.
I feel emotionally regulated enough to try now.

How can you believe that the bubble will burst and also somehow that the AI companies will be subsidizing your lifestyle?
Is this actually what normies think?
It’s 2029. The AI bubble has burst. Your rent is $900 for a two bedroom. You bought a new high end graphics card for $125 because there are too many hitting the market. You’re living off the massive government settlement w/ai companies, spacex, amazon, and meta for price gouging
