Yup. Never gonna do that again. I watch alone.

Same. And I’ve been a loyal New York democrat for 40 years. Not the only radicalized wine-mom around here.

“Mr. Speaker, are you concerned that important briefings are being deliberately withheld from you, since you aren’t aware of a significant number of national news events that everyone else seems to know about?”

Another is having to move to the suburbs when you have kids because you can’t afford to stay. Among my mom friends we called it “getting voted off the island”

This timeline is starting to feel much less 1930s Germany and much more 1780s France.

Feels like hiring, motivating, and managing a team of 90,000 volunteers is pretty impressive. They’re doing it for free and they’re incredibly well organized.

He was in all the boroughs, not just Manhattan. And met with everyone who would meet with him. Just incredible retail politics. Loving the whole big weird city is the whole point of living there.

JOE BIDEN WOULD NEVER

The opposition should create a series of ads showing a 35 year old wife with her 16 year old husband. It’s legal too. Maybe when child marriage isn’t synonymous with abusing “underage women” people might see it more clearly.

Somebody make the video. Please I beg if you. I do not have the skills but you do. It’s beautiful

Every New York democrat who is still unwilling to endorse Zohran Mamdani at this late and fucking inevitable date has some serious Islamophobia/youth bias/dependency on AIPAC/lack of imagination/fear of the future/MAGA curiosity/commitment to ugly money/IDK WHAT EVER.

Hey. Sending you some
Love from a stranger. You deserve better

OH SNAP! my mom lived through it in her nursing home, but not without isolation and fear. And infection. So yeah, dance me to the end of love motherfuckers.

Greatest city in the world! I lived in the west village for years. Halloween is freak night and every single one of us was there for it. Or if we happened to be away, we lent our apt out to friends. Same with pride. NYC never ever gonna be normal. Never. We don’t want to be! That’s why we’re here

I guess maybe safe white people need to start going door to door dropping off the treats. Or maybe just give them all to the local schools to distribute among those kids denied a seriously amazing, totally unifying fun as hell American fucking ritual. Grrr

Attempting to overhear a nearby conversation between 2 middle aged divorced men talking about their ex wives, and I have never been so sorry to be deaf on one side.

This guy! How I wish I still lived in the 5 boroughs, just to vote for his love of the greatest city in the world. All of it.

Banger!

It’s yours now

And here I was, thinking it was the weed.
