MAMDANI: I want to make NYC a better place to live

CUOMO: I want Mandala over here to admit he can't do anything, because I can't do anything

As a historian, I can certify that we are in the bad times. But bad times eventually end.
In the meantime:

• Figure out a small place to find joy
• Figure out a small way to grow and thrive

And do it often.

smash cut to today where I found myself trying to justify the purchase of a used ps3 so I can now play the first two games
😂😂😂 ah, I kid but truly isn’t every sport a little bit better with a villain?
this almost makes me like Abi!

ALMOST.
With his best friend, Wakamotoharu. You'll remember the two of them created such distress for sumo elders when a young Abi posted on SMS a pic of a tied-and-bound (with electric tape) Wakamotoharu.
That prank cost ALL rikishi the privilege to post and text for years!

So Diane Keaton is gone, but we still have Woody fucking Allen? Absolute bullshit
I know the NYPost has much larger problems than this but the fact a newspaper doesn’t know how/when to use hyphens for age is grim to me
