A huge win for NYC! A better world is still possible

Next stop: general election

[aquariumsoap]

“i don’t even live in nyc but im happy” you should be!!!!!!!!!! outside of all the local ramifications this is a win that can serve as an example to guard against defeatist loser democrat establishments in other cities and states who count on you believing that we can never Go Further Left because that is the realm of thought experiments and not electoral power… look around you! hope is one of our most powerful weapons and this is a sign that change is not only something to feel wistful about as the unknown future but a real tangible possibility when you let young people organize and mobilize and put forth a clear message. it’s coalition building!!! this is good for EVERYONE!!!! he was endorsed and supported by the dsa for fuck’s sake. also this is not diminished by whatever happens in the general and whatever his tenure ends up looking like. tbh. we can continue to run campaigns like this and win like this.

kids these days are like “i need chat gpt to write an essay that would normally take 12 hours in 2” but back in my day i did that all the time by using a little technique called “writing some absolute bullshit.” and yet i still walked away with a better essay and more critical thinking skills than i would get if i used chatgpt. write a bad essay that you started on the day it was due, but write it yourself.

Maybe if we Ran away with Carly Rae Jepsen in 2015 none of this would have happened

I've been doing a lot of thinking about my family and how I was treated as a child, and honestly, my father has never seemed more amazing in my eyes.

I used to love Luigi(Mario's brother) when I was little. Like, he was my favorite character ever, and I had multiple plushies of him. Didn't give a fuck about Mario, vaguely tolerated Peach, but I loved Luigi.

On my first day of kindergarten, my dad gave me the number for his work phone and said it was Luigi's phone number. "If anything happens at school, call Luigi."And not even twenty minutes into my first day, I was having a panic attack. So I went down to the principal's office and called "Luigi."

Now, at the time, my father was in a meeting with his manager and his supervisor, along with most of his coworkers. And when I called, he picked up before he even left the room.

And he put on a very awful Italian accent and said, "Itsa me, Luigi! Whatsa the matter?"In front of his boss and coworkers. Without telling them what was going on. So they were absolutely bewildered, and he carried on like they didn't even exist. He only explained what was happening after I had calmed down and hung up, to which most of them responded with "Aww, cute."

I continued to call him whenever I got upset at school, and eventually his coworkers got in on it. I distinctly remember one of them impersonating Toad. I don't know why I'm telling you this, I just thought it might make you smile :)

this is so delightful I love your Luigi dad

Americans: God. It's so embrasing how many of my fellow Americans are eager to believe obvious propaganda and lies about Iran having nuclear weapons and being a credible threat to America. Some Iraq 2.0 style stuff.

The American military: *Does American things Americanly*

Somehow the same Americans: I'm going to die tonight in a nuclear blast. My suburb in Ohio will be the primary target. My only consolation is knowing that I won't live to suffer the horrors that will follow.

the thing is that childhood doesn't just end when you turn 18 or when you turn 21. it's going to end dozens of times over. your childhood pet will die. actors you loved in movies you watched as a kid will die. your grandparents will die, and then your parents will die. it's going to end dozens and dozens of times and all you can do is let it. all you can do is stand in the middle of the grocery store and stare at freezers full of microwave pizza because you've suddenly been seized by the memory of what it felt like to have a pizza party on the last day of school before summer break. which is another ending in and of itself

Don’t worry, white male low info voter from Illinois, you will not be dying in WW3. You’ll actually be dying right now when i shoot you execution style for making violence in the middle east about yourself.
