How important is it to use the right knife?

Wow, I can't believe #Salon is closing.
Happy #BurnAllGIFsDay to all who celebrate.
I got kind of interested in the superpac structure before the election. I was wondering about AIPAC, and in particular, how common it was to have a PAC dedicated mostly to US policy towards a foreign country.
Will the results of the US 2026 mid-term elections help or hurt the Fediverse?

USB-C sucks. The connectors are always flaky and unreliable. My earbuds, my phone, whatever: if I nudge it or the phase of the moon changes, the connection fails and the device stops charging. I like that we have one format but could we have one that works?
I think the opposition parties in Israel are energised by the US midterm results.
It would be a mistake to think that a so-called "national unity" government that excludes Palestinians of 48, but includes the Kahanists and Likud, maybe without Netanyahu (who would get a presidential pardon out of the deal), is enough to realign with international and American publics.
The world is expecting change.

To all the politicians: I am sorry for complaining about the fundraising texts. They worked. I should have been nicer about it.
It is midday where I am, so I will now start my non-comprehensive list of midterm election results complaints.
- Angie Nixon could have won. She deserved more support.
- Prop 40 should have won. We need wealth taxes and campaign finance reform.
- I prefer Connie Chan to Scott Weiner.
Do US Democrats have a mandate to govern?

It's interesting looking at the historic party divisions in the house and senate. #USpol

Looking forward to my podcast queue this morning. I can't wait to hear another interesting number that illustrates the extent of this victory and the results of a race that we've been watching that also has some good news this evening #uspol #podcasts #npr #ShitLibsLove
I hope the opposition Israeli legislative coalition reads the room and forms an anti-Netanyahu government. #StopTheGenocide #FeedGaza #CeasefireNow
