NEW ODD LOTS:
Jacobin founder @sunraysunray tells me and @tracyalloway that after the socialists take over, we don’t have to worry. Markets will still have a major role to play in the economy open.spotify.com/episode/1cv…
Vivek, what is this behavior?
@megynkelly exposes the truth about Amy Acton. It’s uncomfortable, but every voter in Ohio should watch every second of this.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Court records corroborate that Amy Acton's stepfather was charged and indicted in 1978 for raping her as a child, after which she and her brother were removed from their mother's custody.

I already knew I was going to quote tweet this and type "this isn't a travel" before I watched the video
Disgraceful from this pair. Polymarket should not be anywhere near professional sports. It doesn't matter if they're talented athletes, it's fine to shame people for their naked greed.
Thinking about @hasanthehun, who doesn't have a multimillion dollar contract, passing up on $1,000,000 from Polymarket out of principle.
Zohran doing such a good job, a small personnel change is being touted as a news story.
NEW: @NYCMayor's team abruptly & inexplicably fired his director of advance, Val Sanders. By many accounts Sanders did his job well & staffers were surprised by the nature of his ouster. It comes as 3 deputy mayors' chiefs of staff have left their posts.

This stings. I have no idea why a brand with this cache and value would just disappear.
(Strangely, just this morning, I was making the Obsidian > Bioware case to another dorky friend.)

Today, the @Gothamist goes out of its way to mischaracterize @NYCMayor’s relationship with Black communities, relying primarily on a single event from FEBRUARY, while refusing to include polling from April & August that shows the Mayor’s robust support amongst Black New Yorkers.

A century and a half after Friedrich Engels explored the housing question, socialization remains its best answer, meeting diverse housing needs and preferences while avoiding the risks and arbitrary windfalls of market-based approaches. jacobin.com/2026/10/housing-…
Socialized housing doesn’t mean everyone gets the same apartment. Some people want more space; others would rather spend their income elsewhere. Collective living and family homes can coexist, with adequate housing guaranteed for those who couldn’t otherwise afford it.
This is a rough sketch of a socialist horizon on housing. But it's important we have a destination in mind: a system that preserves the security and freedom of a home of one’s own without tying it to private accumulation.
