@_TokyoMarie_ @ElieNYC It isn't other people's job to make you feel visible and wanted

@ElieNYC Ellie, there are so many white people like me, a woman, who joined this work for the first time ever this year. Thousands and thousands of us. Please don’t make us feel invisible and unwanted. We tried, we really did. We need to keep building community and bring others in.

Ironically, black women are the most reliable democratic voters…. But thanks to the total lack of fucking allies the Democratic Party coalition has manage to piss these people off in ways you probably can’t recover from in four years

@MikeCarlton01 I moved

In Australia, election day is a good-natured festival of democracy. In America it’s the threat of violence, riot police, buildings barricaded, whole regiments of lawyers ready to fight the result. Where would you rather live ?

@batshit_auspol Tons and tons of little Queenslands that each have the same number of senators as NSW and VIC

In Australia we have one state called Queensland which fucks with every election prediction because half the population is racist but often won't vote for the racism party for reasons nobody can quite explain. From what we can gather about America, every state is Queensland.

@Michell33650674 No, it truly and honestly isn't possible to rig it in that way. It wasn't possible in 2020, and it isn't possible in 2024. People voted out of hate. This was caused by Americans, not Russians.

PRESIDENT BIDEN! We need you to look into whether our election is being RIGGED by RUSSIA and TRUMP'S BIG MONEY DONORS! None of this is CONSISTENT with what's been happening! We already KNEW that Trump was planning to STEAL it! He told his supporters they didn't need to VOTE!

@america You should not use this handle for political ads

The Republican Party has become the party of common sense and is bringing people together from all walks of life who care about the future of this nation. Vote for Trump to Unite America.

@daralynn13 The only people willing to burn down the house are those who know they will survive the fire

@FPWellman Getting out of cult thinking patterns is hard, and you never know what will trigger an awakening from that

I'm begging people...don't say "what took you so long" or some other iteration to people who are declaring they're walking away from Trump for whatever reason and whatever time they choose. Just stop. We have to bring this country together again and crapping on people that wake up to the madness is not how you do it.

@IanFelipeSays @marceelias Hand counting isn't perfect. If you hand count and come up with 20,537 and the tabulator shows 20,538, you can't just throw away all the votes because you made a mistake hand counting.

@NikkiHaleyHQ But the felon who kept classified documents in his bathroom and is chummy with Putin and Kim Jong Un is fine?

Statement from former UN Ambassador Nikki Haley today: “Make no mistake, American national security is at risk if Kamala Harris becomes president.”

@AriDrennen Did it improve their gender distress?

Zero trans people quoted in this NYT story

@vawalker55 @GaSecofState “On time” is after all the votes are counted, however long that takes

@GaSecofState Maybe you can issue results on time this election. No after hours shenanigans this time OK?

Update: Georgia voters have surpassed all daily records for any day of early voting in 2022. We’ve had 234k voters as of 3:30pm. Our county election directors are outstanding, and Georgia voters are energized!

@natsechobbyist There's no bottom floor to his cruelty, and no top floor to his stupidity

@B3nL1pman @linzsports They claim they aren't attacking all women, but then two biological women appear masculine to them and they call them trans. They're attacking any woman who doesn't look feminine enough to their eyes, all to spite trans women. And this was always where it was headed.

@linzsports I don’t see these as “fear of trans people” (phobia). It’s expression that trans women should compete with men because women’s sports was created for girls.

This was always the end game of the anti-trans hysteria in sports -- that all female greatness in athletics will be diminished and challenged and asterisked. Everyone in the "Save Women's Sports" transphobia crowd is directly responsible for this.

FACT: Every crime committed by an illegal alien in the United States is preventable.

@jon_cronshaw The Grapes of Wrath, and Heart of Darkness

What book did you have to read for school that you ended up loving?

@edzitron Sounds like the midwest in the 1970s. People would hang out on the porch in the summer and get the sprinkler going for the kids to run under. Always high humidity. But it would get hotter than 78.

For Americans who think this is not bad, imagine if homes were old, poorly ventilated and almost never had any kind of AC, and also the humidity was 90%

@RevDaniel *First* fatal bear attack. How many fatal attacks by men have there been in California?

@Provokethoughtz Fighting rape in this way also doesn't reduce how much rape happens. It just changes who the victim is.

@franklinleonard I live in Australia now. This is all anyone will talk to me about today.

WHAT?!?!?!
