STATEMENT FROM JUSTIN GERMAN CHIEF OF STAFF TO REP. HALEY STEVENS
As Haley Stevens’ Chief of Staff for eight years, I speak on behalf of our team in wholeheartedly supporting Abdul El-Sayed for Senate. This election is too important to sow division or stand on the sidelines. We are shocked and heartbroken by Congresswoman Stevens' decision to support Mike Rogers.

meanwhile my twenty megabyte upload to google's servers still hasn't finished
my post got boosted by a few people with a lot of followers and that may seem like a lot more requests all at once than the genAI scraper but:
ARgghhh on nearly every single one of these being behind Facebook login walls
@ai6yr Try this Ben. Looks like they’re posting continuous updates
Here, I made it a shareable meme:
Chris Murphy Warns Trump Could ‘Restart War With Iran’ After Midterms: ‘The Plan Is Insane’
Then, he suddenly had a stroke yesterday. Maybe it's just a coincidence?

@ai6yr The amount of water that is falling in AZ right now is incredible. Last time I remember it being this bad was in the 80s. I was in elementary school, they sent us home early because our streets & parking lots were flooding. Bridges were washed out, like Mill Avenue. My stepdad was trapped at work for 3 days because the wash/dried river bottom he usually crossed was full to the brim, it took my mom hours to get home. (We did have a temporary train bridge tho!)

@alisynthesis Which one?
@colorblindcowboy I have selected Lights Out, which seems like it will have enough jump scares that I won't just turn all the lights out.
The antidote is to redouble one’s focus politicians and others who are doing the opposite, showing bravery and integrity as they fight Republican Fascism. Here’s who I am thinking about today. 2/
got this outfit gifted to me on Throne, thank you so much! <3
I’ve been watching Democratic politicians who move toward Republican Fascism. It isn’t only the flaming example of Haley Stevens. I have seen it at the state and local level too.
It is repulsive and can be demoralizing. Watching the union of cowardice and fascism really exposes one to the basest aspects of humanity. 1/
Hello Again, Friends.
I must once again ask for your assistance. Just as my scheduled hours at work finally started picking up, my partner's hours at his job have dipped. I've also got to make a hefty ($250) auto insurance payment since we've been carrying a past-due balance for so long. I've got to keep that policy active so my partner can commute to work.
We've been living in this apartment that we love for almost a year now, and we've only been able to do so because of the community here on the #Fediverse. Your generosity has subsidized our very survival.
Unfortunately we still need your help. (I know. Trust me, we're tired of it too.) We're trying our best to get on our feet and life is really fucking frustrating sometimes. We get knocked down, but we get up again. You're never gonna keep us down. Anyway, we want to hang onto this amazing apartment but we can only do so with your support and generosity.
Dammit I'm tired. So very, very tired. I desperately need to get my shit together but goddammit I'm so fucking tired. I promise you we're trying our best.
Anyway.. I'm sure by now you all know the drill. We are grateful for every donation whether it's $5 or $500. Sadly we still need every single dollar we can get. My partner will be a ball of anxiety until we make it.
Thank you in advance for your support.
If you're willing AND able, please boost and if possible donate. If you can't donate, please *do NOT feel guilty* for being in the same boat as us. Your feelings about it are valid and understandable but rest assured you needn't feel bad.

@bigzaphod The week’s movie night movie (our movie night is *usually* Saturday, although we seem to have a higher proportion of shifts due to life this year…) was “Mayday” (2026).
Not much to say, it’s pretty much what everyone has said: better than I expected it to be, and more than sufficiently entertaining. Also, also noted, Reynolds seems to have given up trying to play anyone other than himself, and that’s just fine here.
@montyhayter yeah Mayday was fun. Unexpectedly so, really.
It will take generations to repair this damage.
How Trump Is Dismantling Ameri...
Wow.
@lowqualityfacts OK, ouch.
As Turkey prepares to host the UN’s COP31 climate conference next week, the country’s Anatolian plateau is also experiencing an increase in large sinkholes, swallowing up roads and farmlands. The conference could be a good place to bring it up. Read more from @TheConversationClimate:

How? I skimmed the articles but couldn't see it mentioned :/
@tachi I used the mail-crypt plugin. See https://doc.dovecot.org/main/core/plugins/mail_crypt.html However, my setup is a bit non-standard and due to the risks involved in getting it wrong, I decided to not add a blogpost for it.
A quote from this book:
One of the adults there spoke to me after my screening in a serious tone and would be the first of many adults to ask me, "Why don't you have representation? You're very good at this." I never had a good answer to that, I just wanted to make shit.
Literally just the other day my co-worker asked me if I ever considered being a "real filmmaker." They don't realize I motherfucking AM.
@ajroach42 man, I REALLY wanna read this book!
