      Mamdani shows how hungry voters are for candidates who act like they actually care for the places they'd represent. Will he deliver? Not on everything. But he has an exuberance for the city that you wish Congress had for the country.

      For any unfamiliar with the quality of journalism at Teen Vogue, it's well known for hard-hitting stories on "politically sensitive" topics including climate.
Then there's CBS: the only major network to increase climate coverage in the last few years. They just axed nearly their whole climate team.

      I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day.
certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

      Note that “the city” here is “the right.” The rest of us are enemies.

      Elon Musk endorses Cuomo for mayor of New York and makes sure to add some racism in there: “…Mumdumi or whatever his name is.”

      Vermeule thus goes in the same "I can't believe you don't realize your 'allies' will put you up against the wall without delay" bucket as Peter Thiel.

      Blocking hatemongers is one thing but this trend of using mass block lists to avoid hearing from people who might or might not hold points of view you expect to disagree with is unhealthy imo and hurts the platform. 
Bluesky was better off with folks like Margaret Mitchell and Giada Pistilli on it.

      It's not in this article but the government asserts that the sandwich was thrown at "point blank range", which implies subway sandwiches have defined effective weapon ranges of varying lethality, and I would like to see the government's chart of these ranges.

      The main thing that I wish someone would have picked up on the whole "JD-Usha" interfaith baloney squabble was: what a flex it is for a religion (Hinduism) to be so comfortable with itself that Usha tells JD to "pursue his own religion, it will do you good".
