Actual Maine voters stand by Graham Platner:

“Does he have a problematic past? Yes, but I would rather have a redemption story than somebody telling you how wonderful they are, how much research they do, and yet they still make the wrong decision for the people of Maine”

“Would I date him? No, but we’re not looking for perfection. We are where we are, we have a Senate that’s controlled by the Republicans who are not holding this president in check and that is a higher priority”

[Hunter Biden @HunterBiden]

WTF timeline are we on. Someone called me the MAGA whisperer and I’ll gladly take the title. Left, right, D or R we all want the same things. We’re being divided on purpose by the Epstein Elite Oligarch class because as long as we’re at each other’s throats, they get fat and rich off of our misery. The second we figure out we agree on more than we disagree, they’re done. Love your neighbor. Be yourself. Radical honesty. No fucks given, no fucks taken. Everything else is just noise. (But still fuck Jake “Brick Tamland” Tapper on any time line)

[Hunter Biden @HunterBiden]

So let me get this straight.

Jake Tapper is focused on attacking my Mom.

Jared and Ivanka are building a private island paradise on Albanian protected land.

Don Jr married the daughter of Epstein’s banker, and a startup his fund backs just got a record $620M Pentagon loan.

Eric is taking an Israeli drone company public for $1.5B in the middle of a war with Iran that nobody wanted.

And I know: “But what about your paintings, Hunter?”

Please.

It would take far more than a month to honor the contributions of queer and transgender New Yorkers.

From the Cercle Hermaphroditos in 1895, the first trans advocacy group in the United States, to the drag balls of the Harlem Renaissance, to the Stonewall uprising, to the Lesbian Herstory Archives, to ACT UP!, founded in 1987 as queer people fought for their lives while the Reagan administration looked away, New York City's history has long been shaped by queer and trans New Yorkers.

To all our queer and trans neighbors: you deserve a City where you can afford to live safely, openly, and joyfully.

Happy Pride, New York City.

Publix has occupied that building 5 times longer than the Confederacy existed

My plan for solving the housing crisis:

1. Arrest Hasan Piker
2. Name every street after Charlie Kirk
3. Nationwide ban on the 3 trans athletes that play volleyball

I know a few teachers in Queens who would beg to differ.

I've never found a windshield wiper setting that truly satisfied me.

Not to be dramatic but I really think we’re underreacting to how fucking stupid everyone is.

In an ideal world the President of the United States and the worst person in the world would be two different people.

Spotted in the lobby of the Guardian Building in Detroit. Compared to today's more common "financial services", "financial service" is quite evocatively different.

The Guardian Building was built for the Union Trust Company in 1929 and I think it is my favorite of the Detroit skyscrapers. The lobby is quite strikingly weird -- a good reminder of how strange a lot of 1920s aesthetics were.
