🎉Happy Birthday to Edmund Dulac, who was born on this day 1882!
A favorite of the Golden Age of Illustration, Dulac was one of the few artists with technical skill to rival the likes of Arthur Rackham and Beatrix Potter. His twilight soaked imagery is dreamlike and otherworldly.🧵

one benefit of an office job: i actually found the time to read this, and it was hugely informative
The Big Apple’s $30-billion social safety net amounts to a badly frayed patchwork of systems that still cannot reliably get New Yorkers in psychiatric crisis from subway platforms to hospital beds, a Streetsblog investigation has found.

The annoying spam texts destroying the Democratic brand:
$678M raised through those spam tactics
$282M to one consulting firm: Mothership Strategies.
$11M to actual campaigns (1.6%)
The party isn’t just treating donors like marks—it’s being fleeced itself yet continues to back Mothership.

sietsema rocks! and i had no idea christgau was his editor at the voice 🤯
As a fan of New York Guys, and also of Sietsema's writing, I thought this was pretty great. hellgatenyc.com/robert-siets...
Robert Sietsema Will Never Stop Eating
After being laid off by Eater in 2024, the famed food critic still has a lot to say about New York City cuisine—and the difficulties of building a following on Substack.

great interview! everybody go watch taskmaster immediately!
I got to talk to the hilarious Jason Mantzoukas about his chaotic turn this season on Taskmaster, and what it was like being on the inside of one of his favorite shows. Here's part one of our chat (part two coming next week):

Wow — New poll shows Andrew Cuomo's 1-on-1 lead against Zohran Mamdani has shrunk to *just 2 points*
51-49.
And this poll was conducted *before* AOC endorsed Mamdani.
+ Cuomo's lead against Mamdani in the first round of ranked choice voting is now only 7 points.
