Sometimes I see a post that I am at least four different words away from remotely comprehending and it feels oddly soothing, like listening to grownups chatting in the next room must have felt when I was in my crib. Just a nice hum.
(I know. Something sports something. Please do not explain.)

Did we check with Dem Senate leadership on this? Because, bear with me because this is some deep thinking, if we end same-sex marriage, voters in '26 will remember who did it and that could help us. How about if we nullify gay marriage in exchange for a floor vote on legalizing it? Just spitballing!
NEW: Supreme Court rejects long-shot effort to overturn ruling that legalized gay marriage:

Maybe Zohran Mamdani should have come out for ending the shutdown so Democratic Senators could have opposed it.
Demonstrably, you will not.
Senate Democrats had the power to do one thing: This shutdown. And this is what they did with it. Maybe this is some brilliant political calculus, in which case I'll happily eat my words. But right now, it feels like the beginning of the end of the party in its current form--and by its own hand.
Well, that's certainly one theory about what Americans will remember.
Schumer's curse has always been that he is an average politician who believes himself to be a strategic genius.
Can't wait for tomorrow's fundraising email from the Democratic Party.
A brutal, precise, and delightful dismissal.
Politicians like Cuomo are a relic of the past. (Did I want to title this one “Don’t Let The Door Hit You On The Way Out”? Yes, I did.) www.nytimes.com/2025/11/07/o...
It's almost as if he doesn't understand "No"!
LOL not even close.
I live in a very pro-Cuomo precinct in a pretty pro-Cuomo neighborhood within Nadler's district. Many of my neighbors voted for Cuomo for mayor. And I guarantee you that, presented with this option, every one of them will say, "We can do better."
This parade float of pre-existing conditions is only alive because of healthcare that he doesn't pay a dime for.
Oh no that’s terrible somebody do something
Noah, in December 1941, Japanese-Americans were two months from being forcibly taken from their homes and interned by a hostile American government. Do you really think this is an apt comparison?
One thing the NYC mayoral race underscored for me is how easily the phrase "I don't feel safe" can be weaponized. It's an argument I would hesitate ever to use again, even for a good cause. I hope we can all agree that we have the right to BE safe. Maybe we should leave it at that.

Literally the one place in the country where Democrats got their clock cleaned was in the home county of state chair who refused to endorse Mamdani and has generally overseen a string very poor democratic performances.
Peter Hujar's Day opens in NYC today and I hope some of you will treat yourselves to this beautiful, thoughtful escape into a vanished world. It's a small-scale, large-brained movie that blooms beautifully on a big screen. One of my favorites this year.
This would be great--and I don't mean "Here's why that thing you like is actually terrible and bad for The Cause," which is what it too often slips into. You can offer a progressive take on culture without being the giant scold who ruins every Thanksgiving!
