This has been a huge few months for me. I came out 🏳️‍🌈 at 46 and am living on my own for the first time in my life. I was in a very dark place until I accepted my truth. The second pic is of me scared yet excited for the future. Also sorry for the earnest tweet lol love y’all

RIP Richard Lloyd. Thank you for the guitar solo that has allowed countless thousands of college radio DJs to step out of the station for a pee break for almost half a century

jon ossoff is anti medicare for all, anti green new deal, pro ICE, and pro israel. he cannot be anywhere close to being the nominee for president in 2028
full slack (@fullslack_) profile picturefull slack@fullslack_Jul 27
Do you support the Green New Deal? Ossoff [smugly]: no Do you support Medicare for All? Ossoff [smugly]: no Do you support abolishing ICE? Ossoff [smugly]: no Any poll that has Jon Ossoff or Gavin Newsom as more likely to win a general election over AOC is a junk poll.

AIPAC congratulates the hundreds of pro-Israel Democrats and Republicans who won their elections last night. More than 234 candidates supported by AIPAC members have already won, with many additional races still too close to call. We congratulate Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer and House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries on the resounding victories for their caucuses. AIPAC members are determined to expand their political activism in the cycles ahead. Our community will increase its support for Democrats and Republicans who recognize that a strong partnership with Israel helps keep both countries secure, advances peace and stability, promotes democratic values, and grows our economy through trade and innovation.

The South is not a "lost cause". It's underorganized, underfunded, and relentlessly suppressed & gerrymandered. And despite it all, Black Southern voters have shown up anyway to be the conscience of this country throughout our history. I hope people realize that.

If Democrats don't want this to snap back in two or four years, they have to prioritize getting costs down and constituent services. People have to know you give a shit and when they do, they give you things like 18 point wins in Georgia

BREAKING: Another stunner in North Carolina. It's too close to call. But with all in person votes counted Chuck Hubbard (D) is ahead of longtime Rep. Virginia Foxx (R) in NC-05 by 99 votes. This race will be subject to a recount.
