Doctors I trust more than RFK, Jr.:
Excerpt from a New Yorker book review that reads: Her aide in this mission is Dr. Tuttle, a Yellow Pages quack extraordinaire whose medical advice runs the gamut from "dial 9-1-1 if anything bad happens" to "use reason when you feel you can." Tuttle enters the picture while wearing a neck brace and holding a cat that she calls "my eldest." She tells the narrator, "People would be so much more at ease if they acted on impulse rather than reason. That's why drugs are so effective in curing mental illness because they impair our judgment. Don't try to think too much."

So much batshit content here but what jumps out at me most, yet again, is how cheaply you can buy politicians
When the Argentos sought her help to prevent DOT from installing protected bike lanes on McGuinness Boulevard, a key Brooklyn thoroughfare used by their Broadway Stages trucks to haul equipment for movie shoots, Lewis-Martin reached out to Transportation Commissioner Ydanis Rodriguez and got the plan put on ice. In exchange, the Argentos transferred $2,500 to Lewis-Martin's personal bank account and provided more than $10,000 in free catering for a single Gracie Mansion event, prosecutors allege.

Digging this insane book cover
#booksky
Cover of a hardback English language edition of a maigret mystery by Georges Simenon. We have a large red lobster, a man’s head in deep shadow looking kinda sinister, and few potted plants. The design is very 70s/80s. It’s pretty weird altogether

(Flapping wings) What opportunities? What opportunities motherfucker? (goose charges at you full speed)
Per Politico, Cuomo put a positive gloss on his long-standing relationship with Trump, suggesting that the president won't actively try to pick a fight with him if he made it to City Hall. "Let's put it this way: I knew the president very well, he said. "I believe there's a big piece of him that actually wants redemption in New York. He feels that he was rejected by New York. We voted for Hillary Clinton Bill de Blasio took his name off things. So, I believe there will be opportunities to actually cooperate with him. I also believe that he's not going to want to fight with me in New York if he can avoid it"
