#USpol bernie says Walz for VP is good for the working class 

β€œSo, I hope very much that the Vice President selects a running mate who will speak up and take on powerful corporate interests,” he continued. β€œAnd I think Tim Walz is somebody who could do that.”
Sanders is in Minnesota for β€œGet-out-the-Vote” efforts supporting Rep. Ilhan Omar (D). He hosted a town hall in Mankato, Minn., focused on working class voters.

Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump said Saturday that he will no longer appear at a previously scheduled debate on Sept. 10 and will only debate Vice President Harris, the likely Democratic nominee, if she agrees to his terms: a debate on Sept. 4, hosted by Fox News, with a β€œfull arena audience.”

With lots of help from @Pineywoozle and with credit to @Shonin for adding the hashtag, I’ve settled on the design in the photo for the Mastodon for Harris #NewBanner I will use. Various folks have created other options. I say let all the flowers bloom.

Please, VP Harris, don’t debate the jackass on Fox β€œNews,” which isn’t even a legitimate news outlet; it’s pure fascist propaganda.

Trump is a useful idiot who can’t survive any debate without being tossed softballs that he can barely catch. He’s worse with hardballs. Lastly, Cadet Bone Spurs hasn’t got any balls.

If you find yourself wondering why your feed on Mastodon is incredibly hostile or toxic, spend a few minutes going through the worst offending posts and see who's posting or boosting them.

I did this and discovered that the worst offenders were a small handful of accounts that were constantly boosting or posting very negative stuff. Once they were removed from my feed (it was like only like three or four accounts), everything improved dramatically.

Toilets that signal *what* the infrastructure is, rather than *who* can enter.

I just had a very satisfying visit from a local MAGAt, once again running for office (and destined to lose).

He handed me a flyer, introduced himself, and I interrupted him to tell him to stop filing lawsuits against the city, he was wasting my tax dollars, and I wouldn't vote for him till hell froze over.

As a weirdo, I have mixed feelings about the use of 'weird' to attack the far right.

Obviously, it's accurate. Also it seems to rattle them, and I appreciate that.

I just can't help worrying about people reinforcing the stigma against weirdness without registering what they're doing.

Harry: "Whenever I search for "Kim and Paris" I get these two random people, who even are they? It seems one is a Cardassian?"

How do you pronounce it?

Interesting time in politics. I’m starting to think that Harris is the best candidate for us at this point of our history. It makes the choice so much clearer for those who are chronically and almost irremediably shortsighted and believe orangeade is a viable choice.

What's most fascinating to me about the discourse around the #NABJ Trump interview is how many people think Scott's opening question was "hostile". It really reflects the reality of so many #BIPOC folks-- where literally just saying that someone has done something racist (especially in the workplace), even just repeating back their own racist words/ actions, (no matter *what* tone you use) gets you labeled "hostile" or "aggressive" or "angry". Saying the question was "hostile" speaks volumes.

Fuck unity by the way, if we win I'm flying a "Trump Lost LOL" flag and telling my neighbors to lick taints.
