Mamdani: That’s how I felt when we came up with this plan. Together, we will expand the idea of what is possible in our city—and what sounds and noises we can make at a press conference.

Does anyone have any idea how we break the echo chambers? No Trump voter in my family will ever know what actually happened to Alex Pretti or Renee Good. They will believe the officers were justified. They will watch Fox News and that will be the end of it.

He's not "backing down on the tariffs". He's not "spooked by the stock market".
This is mafia tactics. Threaten. Escalate.
Then "settle" for something more than they wanted to give in the beginning.
He have no real positions or convictions anyway, so he'll take anything he can get.

Deepinder Goyal's rant against striking workers was "classic example of Orwellian doublespeak, which is the use of language designed to deceive by obscuring, distorting, or reversing the true meaning of words, making bad seem good or unpleasant seem tolerable."

Happy 2026 to all the inmates of this quiet center-left-liberal corner of the internet. May the RW fascists continue to ignore us as we snort in morally superior derision, milking masturbatory dopamine hits before we return to serving and surviving in this woefully but inevitably capitalist society.

Randomly remembered this video from 14 years ago when this song by a Pakistani band called "Beygairat Brigade" went viral.
Back in the "good old days" of social media.
Was surprised to learn that the singer is still alive and well, and apparently still in Pakistan.

Totally fresh and original take: BLR roads are DESIGNED to maintain speed limits.
In Germany, people are forced to follow speed limits. In BLR, assumption is that people will simply overspeed all the time.
The potholes and car-breaking-speed-bumps every 25 meters are by DESIGN!
Feature, not a bug!
