Good thing an elderly woman who lives in my building gently pressured me to check on my voting registration. As it turns out, I wasn't registered in my state! I just did the application online

Look at this link at the bottom of the New York Times' "Don't vote" opinion piece. They didn't run this as a one-off. They're trying to turn non-voting into a thing. Repugnant.

USians, the 4th of July is a great time for us to call our electeds and leave voicemail asking them to support AOC in calling for impeachment of the 6 right-wing SCOTUS justices.

If your area got a new Labour MP then it is your duty to email them and say that you are happy the Tories are out but that transphobia should have no place in the party. Make Starmer gently walk back his support for Rowling's position!
Emailed my local Labour candidate. We're a swing seat. Let's at least let them hear from us.

Imagine if the NYT defended trans people instead of attacking them. Imagine if the NYT refused to platform bigots and insurrectionists. Imagine if the NYT actually covered local New York City politics and news. Imagine if the NYT had a public editor.
Imagine for one second if the NYT marshaled its massive influence towards voter registration, towards supporting voting rights groups, towards encouraging people to vote and fighting people who try to stop people from voting. Imagine if the NYT actually championed participatory democracy.

Horrible news about the fascists. Only hope that the cult of personality nature of their party will cause them to be fighting themselves the whole term, but that doesn't change how many people voted for them.

Yeah, he shoots mostly on sunny days with fine grain 100 ASA film and he crops in the darkroom to get tighter shots. #canon
Nice edit. Curious. What's your take on how Spider-Man would get photos of himself? Has this been explored in the comics? It looks like he's shooting wide, but the photos are tight. I found this online, but it's not great. www.quora.com/How-does-Pet...
How does Peter Parker click pictures of Spider-Man?www.quora.com Answer (1 of 5): Well he doesn’t any more… Mostly he’d carry a small camera around that he’d web up somewhere hidden and set it to automatically take pictures. Later on he upgraded it to include a mo...

I deleted the first two posts of this thread to stop rewarding bad publications with traffic. For context, here are the screenshots.
More anti-democratic thoughts from 2018 the NYT allowed this writer to exclude from his current piece. Delivered with an air of detached irony, as if he miiight be joking or exaggerating. But is he?

i drop this when folks are clicking to read a performatively bad take by a fascist in the new york times. 1—that’ll make it the best performing piece of the day 2—guy writes for national review—the mag william f buckley founded 3—i know you like wordle, but the nyt has always been like this
in 1986—peak AIDS crisis; only 6 months after reagan admitted AIDS was real—the NYT ran a william f buckley op-ed calling for all HIV+ people to be tattooed on the arm & the ass for the greater good anyone giving the NYT the benefit of the doubt about trans coverage: this is who they’ve always been
