Yea, I know #Klay has the record for most 3’s in a game, scored 60 pts in 29 min, 4 championships, is funny in post-game interviews, & will forever be a Splash Brother, but this is my favorite Klay Thompson video. youtube.com/shorts/V2m_B...

A concise script for contacting your electeds.
Ok - this is a question I get a LOT, and am starting to get a lot again. Here are a few tips on calling electeds: 1. Try not to stress too much about the method of contact - e.g. email/calling. The important thing is getting in touch.

NYT search is awful. When I searched for "Project 2025", two articles were the top hit. The rest? About sports. wtf. Notice the 2nd headline & the use of the work "Conservative" to describe the project. It's not Conservative; it's fascist. Luckily, you can offer feedback on search results. Do it.

Pick a swing state, grab a friend, & write postcards. Every bit helps! I've done this in 2020 & enjoyed it. You'll get a script of what to write, reminding ppl of when to vote: "Voting is a matter of public record, but who you vote for is private...." www.turnoutpac.org/postcards/

Jazz helps. If you're in NYC & can afford a ticket, these guys are excellent. They have student discounted tickets too in a SRO area of the main room. I've been a patron of Smoke for 10 yrs now, but haven't been as much since the Before Times (when I could more afford it). tickets.smokejazz.com

SCOTUS is telling us that it has completely signed on to the project of a second Trump administration, which is establishing an elected autocracy.

I think the Loper decision that overruled Chevron deference supports the Schedule F changes in admin agency positions in Project 2025...where they fire ppl who have expertise in their field of study, & replace them w/ppl who are loyal to Drumpf & will carry out his policies. youtu.be/gYwqpx6lp_s

The commentariat needs to go for a walk and take some deep breaths. The idea of ditching an incumbent president w an astoundingly impressive track record in the midst of a booming economy is preposterous. Focus on the authoritarian felon threatening our democracy. And maybe freak out about SCOTUS. 🙄

Me: waiting for the new #StrictScrutiny episode. I need the ladies to explain the full ramifications of the shitty decisions from earlier today.😔

"Decoupling the right to marry from the right to cohabitate is how the conservatives are going to vitiate same-sex unions." And, "Muñoz is a poisoned dart to same-sex marriage: It doesn’t hurt as much as a shotgun to the chest, but it will kill you just the same." www.thenation.com/article/soci...

All. Please. I'm begging. Stop trying to push for a brokered convention. Real life is not an Aaron Sorkin episode, and you know why the future frontrunners (e.g. Whitmer, etc.) wouldn't? It would tear the party in half, and at an even more critical time than right now. Politics is not Vegas.

Oh, and PS: Journalists? CALL. TRUMP'S. LIES. OUT. The focus shouldn't be about age right now, you've done 1000000 articles. The focus is on the substance of the issue. Please.
