Just a reminder that the algorithm is trying to maximize unregretted user-seconds. If far more credible, verified subscriber accounts (not bots) mute/block your account compared to those who like your posts, your reach will decline significantly.

Focusing solely on how Trump’s margin of victory increased in NYC can obscure what actually happened. It wasn’t primarily driven by Democrats switching to Trump, but Dems staying home.

In New York City, Trump won 94,000 more votes than he did in 2020 – a significant shift that we must reckon with.  But 573,000 fewer New Yorkers voted for Harris. That’s the far bigger challenge to confront.

Me, stepping out of a heavily modified Delorean in 1987: "Look, I don't have much time. In the year 2024, a movie you have an assistant producer credit on will be featured by Hustler magazine. Yes, that Hustler magazine. No further questions."

One might read this and very reasonably think "lavenous is not a word" and be perfectly correct. One might also search for it and discover that while one WAS correct about it not being a word, it's also SO MUCH STUPIDER than that. mikesuper.com/lavenous

Lavenous

Lavenous is a word that can be used at any time in any situation for any meaning. The word is created and trademarked by magician Mike Super.

I am BEGGING you folks, please stop sharing unsourced bullshit! This wanna-be influencer literally thanks people in her comments for "getting her monetized." Meanwhile, look at that list. STARBUCKS?! Moe's? Krispy Kreme? If this isn't literal agitprop, it's still utter hogwash.

But look more closely at those columns: INDIVIDUALS who *work* for Delta individually decided to contribute a total of $383K to Harris/Walz and $261K to Trump/Vance. $0 from Delta ITSELF to either. That's why I showed you the data I did: I sorted by the "From Org" column.

I'm going to stop now, as much as my obsessive attention to detail is clamoring for me to look at every other entry on that idiotic list. Instead, I'm going to beseech you: don't listen to people who DON'T provide you the kind of information I just did. Empty memes are EMPTY.
