The music cuts off awkwardly before the end, but this is an incredible NYC Halloween costume compilation.

Happy Halloween from Mary Shelley Kate! 🎃

Mary Shelley Kate is a black, white and brown Border Collie wearing an orange striped shirt that says "Trick or Treat." She is very serious.

“My tax dollars are paying for their steak!”

Yeah, well, my tax dollars are paying for ICE to threaten and abduct my neighbors. Steak sounds better.

This whole thread.

“Oh no, someone might eat food!”

Good. That’s good.

“They might buy something they like.”

Cool.

“They might get a treat!”

Also cool.

There's something deeply disturbing about EBT/SNAP hate to me. Like just truly bone blanching shit.

I feel like I'm looking at one of those weird funhouse rooms where all the dimensions are skewed.

sure, you might not be able to eat or go to the doctor, but check out how nice Trump's new marble shitter is

I renovated the Lincoln Bathroom in the White House. It was renovated in the 1940s in an art deco green tile style, which was totally inappropriate for the Lincoln Era. I did it in black and white polished Statuary marble. This was very appropriate for the time of Abraham Lincoln and, in fact, could be the marble that was originally there!

It behooves all of us to remember forever that Donald Trump, Republican President of the United States, and his Republican enablers did not *want* to release funds to feed children.

Judges have forced them to do it against their will.

Obviously this is just naked racism but it is really funny to argue that in *nyc*, a place with names like “gansevoort” and fucking “kosciuszko“, “mamdani” is just too hard for our delicate little brains to handle

If you can say Giuliani you can say Mamdani

Mamdani's name is not hard to pronounce if you grew up in and live in NYC, where many, many people have non-white-settler names.

The New York Times @nytimes.com · 16h

In Opinion

Early in Zohran Mamdani’s mayoral campaign, “it was easy to assume that failure to learn his name reflected a failure to take him seriously,” John McWhorter writes. But “as a matter of pure linguistics, it would be surprising if people didn’t have trouble with the name Mamdani.”

Opinion | I Now Mispronounce You the Likely Next Mayor of New York City

A lot of people seem to trip over Zohran Mamdani’s name. The reason may not be as simple as it seems.

emerging reports about possibly imminent US military attack on venezuela. there can be no doubt about it, certainly not in the coverage: such an attack would be an act of aggression, lacking any basis in international law. we'll get sophistic arguments about self-defense but none will be legit.

Anyone tone-policing me on food items has no idea how many times my mom made frank and bean casserole when I was growing up. Real butter was a luxury food item.

My wife has volunteered at a local food bank for years and confirms what many of you have probably heard: in this case, straight cash is a good donation if you can do it.

The food banks have better access and buying power than individuals do, and can try to address item imbalances as they see them.

I grew up in Queens and I adore how this man is connecting with regular working-class folk in my borough.

Zohran Mamdani spent last night with the late-night workers he said are often forgotten — can drivers at LGA and hospital workers on a 7-7 shift at Elmhurst Hospital, before walking to Kebab King and then having a midnight press conference in Jackson Heights

💯 agree. I've done plenty of pantry drives etc over the years and I'm organizing a hygiene kit drive now. I question whether it's about intentionally giving folks something nice, versus "oh I never used it and it's about to expire, so I'll pop it in the box." I've seen A LOT of that.
