If you're new to DSA, before you get involved with caucus drama, knock some doors. That SMC application can wait. MUG will do fine without you for a minute. Knock some doors, get involved with the work.

We have a world to win.

if we thought trump was lucky with his number of supreme court appointments, look at laura kelly in kansas. absolutely insane shes completely flipped the court

“Nobody is coming to save you” but your day literally gets better after you consume art made by other people. You hang w friends & you’re no longer suicidal, even if just for a few minutes. They’re lying to you about the significance of community. People are saving you EVERYDAY!

now playing new avatar and even though it doesn’t feel like a typical summer album, it’s a perfect weekday album (specifically for mondays and tuesdays)

a kelela and fka twigs collab would actually kill me

[zay @boysforzay]

seeing black women like kelela, fka twigs, ikeda, kelsey lu, pinkpantheress, chxrry, cannelle, rochelle jordan, etc taking the spotlight as genre benders/innovators this year is so satisfying and needed

[david @davidwave40]

@mv1c01m twigs has said she's open to a collab and is a big fan of Kelela, so there's hope

[Wheeljack @SJWheeljack]

genuinely cannot believe that the Diarrhea Forever meme turned out to be completely literal. this political era simply cannot be parodied or satirized. the stupidest thing you can think of can and will happen.

@ettingermentum If it's Spain v. Argentina, just cancel the whole fucking thing and do it over.

[Rep. Summer Lee @RepSummerLee]

We have a healthcare system where Black patients are too often ignored, misdiagnosed, and denied care.

Black doctors save lives. Culturally competent care saves lives. We can't afford to lose that just because conservatives are uncomfortable with diversity.

Re-watching ME Gov debates and Troy Jackson is pretty comically bad at this. He needs real coaching if he's gonna be the nominee.

[david @davidwave40]

@daveweigel In a world where all of these folks ran against Mills and Platner, Platner probably still would've won because he's a genuinely talented orator. Also makes sense why these folks all lost to Pingree.

[david @davidwave40]

@JackMassacre_ @harmonia_queen She should’ve never run.

[david @davidwave40]

@JupiterKunt @WokeAnnUpdates Hong is not a bad candidate, and her winning the nod and the election would be a testament to the infrastructure WISDEMS built, not some kind of loss

[david @davidwave40]

If Acton wins the governor’s race, Sherrod Brown is the only person any 2028er should consider for VP.

[Joe @JoePostingg]

Sherrod Brown coming out of retirement so he can work his ass off to maybe block some Trump nominees for a couple years before getting creamed in a Presidential year is very good stuff. Extremely committed to the bit.

[david @davidwave40]

Last thing I’ll say about the DSA situation: seems to me like what others are calling mess is just how democracy works. Different folks disagreeing and litigating those disagreements in public is politics the right way.

[Washington Journal @cspanwj]

"We're not talking about the government controlling everything…we want to expand democracy." @DemSocialists co-chair Ashik Siddique (@ahSHEEK) explains the difference between democratic socialism and communism.
"We point to examples in the United States' own history where things like the New Deal, gains like Social Security, [and] the expansion of Medicare over a century ago, those things were won by expanding democracy."

[david @davidwave40]

@dj_mackelfresh @BCTSean @OGBlackRedGuard Not the own you think it is. That was a bad decision on yours and your chapter’s part considering how narrowly Kat lost, but you’re entitled to your opinion and votes.
