@LightNovaXP @_modernfootball @PollTracker2024 she caved to pressure from Tony West and Mark Cuban to water down her proposal to ban price-gouging

@_modernfootball @PollTracker2024 She made no concessions to the right on economic policy. More people would know that if they educated themselves on her policy instead of going off of vibes

NBC News: Kamala Harris is expected to blame Democrats and Republicans for failed economic policy at state party dinner
“Democrats never bought into trickle-down [economics]. That was Ronald Reagan’s doing. But plenty of Democrats did buy into the flawed assumptions behind it,“ Harris, the Democratic presidential nominee in 2024, plans to say at the Arkansas Democratic Party’s annual Fisher Shackelford Dinner.

@RedSilverrBlue @The_Pequod_ @TVU1969 yea i see yr point with Velvet Rope having that night-like moody vibe, but i see Janet as a pre-cursor rather than the inventor. even Velvet Rope has a lot of 80s style percussion and more radio friendly songwriting than what was going on in 2010-2011 when Alt R&B was coined imo
English
@LadPsycho iyrtitl is great but honestly there’s a handful here i’m taking over it. i actually think i’d take Hndrxx over it tbh
English
@The_Pequod_ @TVU1969 i mean imo he is the figure you can most easily credit with the development of alternative R&B, alongside Jai Paul, James Blake, etc.

@MMcmold86440 @nikicaga This is pure cope lol. Cuomo was seen as an unbeatable candidate, a popular and experienced former governor (with scandals, but most voters still liked him). The fact that Zohran went from being unknown at 1% to crushing Cuomo in a 12% victory is nearly unparalleled in 2020s

But "how to win elections in major cities" IS a problem socialists had
Until Big Z

Just begging everyone to recall that "how to win elections in New York City" is not really a problem that Democrats have.
English
@_modernfootball yeah that is a very good point. but i think on the other hand, if Anthony Blinken and Jake Sullivan are directing policy, we may have gotten a version of the Abraham Accords anyway, though it likely would’ve been slightly different and may not have led to the same result
English
@floridalover21 I’m actually going to raise a counterpoint here on Gaza: does October 7th still happen with no Abraham Accords?
English
@_modernfootball yeah i get you for sure. i always wonder how many of Obama’s foreign policy decisions Biden would have maintained or reversed. probably would’ve been hard for Biden to backtrack the Iran deal or Cuba deal for example, even if he was privately opposed to them the whole time
English
@floridalover21 Yeah i didn’t necessarily mean this in the way of saying Bernie would have had an open lane, of course he wouldn’t have. This is moreso about “no Drumpf”
English
@_modernfootball i also think it’s possible Elizabeth Warren would have run to challenge Biden instead of Bernie. maybe there’s other candidates who would’ve gotten in as well idk
English
@_modernfootball in this timeline, Biden probably runs and wins quite easily, but i think it’s a genuine question how good his presidency would end up being.
he also would definitely run again in 2020 (and likely win), and so sadly i think Gaza still plays out very similarly

the first time i saw this on my tl and watched it i thought this song was genuinely buns but everytime it’s come on my tl i’ve watched it again and somehow i now think it’s incredible

This is a million times dumber and more harmful than what Timothée said
Variety@Variety
Charlize Theron says "in 10 years," AI will be able to do Timothée Chalamet’s job as an actor, but it will never be able to replace live performance like ballet: “Oh, boy, I hope I run into him one day. That was a very reckless comment on an art form, two art forms, that we need to lift up constantly because, yes, they do have a hard time. But in 10 years, AI is going to be able to do Timothée’s job, but it will not be able to replace a person on a stage dancing live.” variety.com/2026/film/news…

@Shevinnea2026 Paranoid is one of those albums that actually lives up to all the hype, my first listen was an unbelievable experience

My very positive takes on all the bolded Ozzy era Black Sabbath albums!

My very objective and non-controversial take on all the bolded Ozzy era Black Sabbath albums.

@suttonmccarthy1 @ElliscbIV there were two third party candidates who both did respectably well. Lisa Savage nearly got 5%
English
@ElliscbIV am I dumb? that doesn’t add to 100% and afaik there’s no independent there
English
I think the biggest issue for Collins is reaching 50%.
Sure, it’s possible she scrapes by and finishes first, but in ’20 she *barely* avoided instant RCV, and in ‘26, she’s far less popular and the environment will be far bluer.

It's funny how Maine is seen as an auto flip just like 2020
English
@camicumchom @ZFlawles1s and also because of his positions on M4A and abolishing ICE of course
English
@camicumchom @ZFlawles1s if you want McMorrow because you think she's more electable, say that
i support Abdul bc he has put forward a serious vision for Middle East policy, advocating for ceasing military aid to the murderous Egyptian government, an issue that virtually no other Dem ever talks about
English
well there you have it, mcmorrow is closer to stevens than el sayed
@
McMorrow 1st choice go 🟠 Stevens 55% 🟢 El-Sayed 25% El-Sayed 1st choice go 🟣 McMorrow 57% 🟠 Stevens 13% Stevens 1st choice go 🟣 McMorrow 57% 🟢 El-Sayed 15%
English
@camicumchom @ZFlawles1s but if the word progressive is to mean anything, it has to be attached to the actual policies that the progressive movement pushed for. Warren for example is considered a progressive in part because of her support for M4A, the flagship progressive policy, which McMorrow opposes
English
@camicumchom @ZFlawles1s Progressives endorse non-progressives all the time. AOC endorsed Julie Johnson. We can all be honest here and admit that people consider electability, and in this case many people believe McMorrow to be more electable, hence why some progressives might support her over Abdul
