I think Mamdani the idea is infinitely more valuable than Mamdani the man - no matter how good Mamdani the man turns out to be. The fact that Zionists across the aisle decided to make this a referendum on """"anti-semitism""" (read: anti-Zionism) only to get utterly humiliated was not only hilarious, but serves as proof of the popularity of the pro-Palestine movement to all the holdover liberals who made excuses for Biden / Harris by saying, "but Palestine isn't popular! They'd be committing political suicide!" - now it's clear that it is political suicide not to support Palestine. Ditto for trans rights, and also just socialism in general - like, we've heard Democrats say they can't support trans rights because they'll lose votes over it, and then Mamdani has a blowout victory after going out promising to give 65 million to healthcare for trans kids.

So if nothing else, I feel like Mamdani is a good avenue through which to radicalize liberals against Democrats. You've got a bunch of people looking at Mamdani and realizing that better things are possible... and if Mamdani ends up getting ratfucked by the Democrats or just disappoints, it'll be very easy to welcome them into the fold.

Also, all of the Islamophobic attacks on Mamdani by right wingers and fellow Democrats alike have got liberals I wouldn't normally so much as acknowledge calling for the resignation of Hakeem Jeffries. If nothing else, the man is a golden opportunity for establishment Democrats to end their political careers.

He's still a politician in the Third Reich and nowhere near a revolutionary marxist that some people make him out to be. When the other candidates are genocidal maniacs you can see the 'maybe let's not do that' candidate as a good guy but ultimately we need much more than what Zohran is.

We'll see what he turns out to be. Hopefully the comrades in the NY area use this as a way to get in touch with more people.

The fact that he is running as a dem is a red flag. They are using him to rehabilitate the dem brand. Participation in bourgeois elections only helps the cause if it is done under the banner of communism. He's a sheepdog rounding up the "progressive" liberals who are disgusted by the support for the genocide.

He is the dem's way of saying "I'm sorry baby. I've changed. I'll never hit you again. Please take me back"

Middle class ain’t nothin’ but a vibe 🤷 10K is about what you’d get if you’ve got ~150K socked away in the public stock & bond market. White collar workers and the petite bourgeoisie often have that much accumulated before they reach middle age.

I used to take it before bed for that reason. But also, that only happened to me when I took it orally - something to do with the progesterone being metabolized into something else, IIRC. Could be worth looking at rectal administration or a cream.

You too B-)

You too oppo!

You too comrade Oppo!

What kinds of legumes do you favor? I have this Italian climbing purple green bean variety that I'm fond of which always produces an absurd amount of food - but granted I'm in Hawai'i and have a lot of space to plant things outdoors.

I've tried radishes a few times, but I can't seem to get them started when I sow them straight into the ground and I've heard you don't want to transplant root vegetables. I do have some chicken wire plant guards, though, so perhaps I could try sowing seed under them to see if it's just the birds eating them before they can grow.
