@n_salter7777 @realPrestonHill the election already happened, there is no voting left to do

[Hunter📈🌈📊 @StatisticUrban]

There are four separate parties cloe to the 5% threshold here, so we won't really know what this election looks like until we know who made it in.

But broadly, a strong AfD result, not great for anyone else except maybe BSW, and an utter disaster for the CDU.

@KYBestState Yeah so many parties on that threshold.

[Hunter📈🌈📊 @StatisticUrban]

Fairly wide range of possible AfD voteshare though. https://t.co/LrlKah72Z1

Exit poll from Berlin is out. Die Linke looks to have had an excellent night, comfortably taking first.

There's a comfortable Linke-Greens-SPD majority here, which the Greens and Linke wanted. Also a possible Kenya majority, but this is a less likely government, I think.

[Hunter📈🌈📊 @StatisticUrban]

@KYBestState Need more info, exit polls give a wide variety of possibilites.

[Hunter📈🌈📊 @StatisticUrban]

This is a genuinely insane paragraph. What are we even doing here, man.

@sneaknsneak this happened in israel

[Hunter📈🌈📊 @StatisticUrban]

I blame Connecticut. Useless state.

The weird thing about the Boston account posting this is that Boston is clearly the least enthusiastic node in the BosWash axis

DC through Philadelphia to New York really feels like one continuous conurbation, but there’s a distinct discontinuity between New York and Boston.

Reminds me one time I was on Google tryna find this exact image and I looked up "my gay son who I hate" and the AI got mad at me and told me off for it

Goodreads holds a poll of their users that's received millions of votes, in an effort to crown the "best book ever." Apropos of nothing, here is their top 11:
- The Hunger Games book 1
- Pride and Prejudice
- To Kill a Mockingbird
- Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
- The Book Thief
- Twilight book 1
- Animal Farm
- The Fault in Our Stars
- The Picture of Dorian Gray
- Percy Jackson: The Lightning Thief

Every time I think Letterboxd has bad rating curves and average ratings on certain movies, I have to be reminded that app still is somehow nowhere as bad as the shit you see on Goodreads

@indri_4biking @sudoraohacker Buttigieg or Ossoff, take your bets

Obama peaked 2009-2017 when we really needed him approximately, like, right now.

[MeidasTouch @MeidasTouch]

🚨 OBAMA ON AI: "If we are thinking about AI just in terms of how do we cure cancer or get better energy, you can do that without having agentic AI and having it just roaming free in the internet. The reason you are doing that is because you have to market a product that people will pay money for.

That’s a misalignment between what our society needs and the commercial imperatives that these companies are facing, not because necessarily they’re trying to do bad things, but because they’ve got to justify these valuations.

So, that’s one more reason why it is really important for us to have a competent government and a serious bipartisan conversation around this issue, and we have to do it fast. And I would encourage voters to pay attention to this. If somebody does not have a serious plan for how to deal with this, then they’re not meeting the moment, and you should probably look for somebody else."

[Hunter📈🌈📊 @StatisticUrban]

@sudoraohacker Fair enough. I mean, I do see the contradiction. But at least he's engaging in a capacity that seems beyond most politicians tbh

[Hunter📈🌈📊 @StatisticUrban]

@MassJumbo Boston-Denver-Albuquerque might be your best bet from Maine.

There also direct Portland-Denver flights iirc.

[Hunter📈🌈📊 @StatisticUrban]

@alsemancher_ @metzgov Eh. They got 4 irl, and WI, NV, AZ, and MI were possible.

That would've been 8

@GWHayduke97 @davidslosttt (Though there are better spots for shoes than SuitSupply)

[Hunter📈🌈📊 @StatisticUrban]

@GWHayduke97 @davidslosttt A relative steal! But slacks and dress shoes certainly do drive up the price.

[Hunter📈🌈📊 @StatisticUrban]

@davidslosttt I have several friends who worked in the menswear business professionally, happy to field any questions through them!
