Everyone in the world comes to get married at the NYC Marriage Bureau. Last week, the Mayor stopped by to officiate a few of those ceremonies.
Thank you to all the couples who shared their joy with us. Happy Valentine's Day, New York.

A cargo airplane is a truck, though
the two types of vehicle are cars and trucks, with every vehicle being a subclass of one of those two. a jeep is a truck. a motorcycle is obviously a car. a boat is a truck. an airplane is a car and a helicopter is a truck. trucks are cars, interestingly enough, and cars are a specific type of chair

Protest group’s co-founder wins legal challenge against decision to proscribe it under anti-terrorism laws
The co-founder of Palestine Action has won a legal challenge to the home secretary’s decision to ban the group under anti-terrorism laws.
The proscription of Palestine Action, which categorised it alongside the likes of Islamic State, was the first of a direct action protest group and attracted widespread condemnation as well as a civil disobedience campaign defying the ban, during which more than 2,000 people have been arrested.

I love learning about free speech from Columbia the school most famous for having cops beat and arrest its own students for noticing a genocide.

I have yet to see where being more timid didn’t *lose* us an election
I think @nberlat.bsky.social and I have discussed how incredibly annoying this attitude is. For one, it suggests that Democrats should be afraid of openly calling out SCOTUS for its corruption and fascism enabling, as if that would cost us elections.

Following yesterday’s tragic shootings in Tumbler Ridge, B.C., I have asked that Canada’s flag atop the Peace Tower, and across all government buildings, be flown at half-mast for the next seven days as our nation mourns with the community.
