Mayor Mamdani and a group of children hold hands while running through red tape in a hallway.
For too long, bureaucracy kept 7 child care centers across our city empty — spaces that should have been alive with laughter instead collected dust.
We've run through that red tape. This fall, all 7 will open their doors, bringing an additional 240 free 3-K seats & real relief to working families.
You were great, and you both looked great. Also? I was thinking as I listened that someone should publish your remarks.
This is so sad. “Nights are the hardest.
“I can’t sleep because of our own situation,” Ms. Uccello, 49, said over coffee on a recent afternoon. “I can’t sleep because of what I know what’s happening around the world. I can’t sleep because my former colleagues and friends are also suffering.”
Congratulations!
“What are you in for?”
“Felony bralessness”
Congratulations!
STOP USING AI TO MAKE FLIERS.
It changes Black people's faces. This has now happened to TWO colleagues.
You know who else famously used paid informants to infiltrate extremist groups?
The Justice Department.
Oh in the text and not an essay. Thank you.
Where is this?
First, stop it. We are <constantly> looking in the mirror & if you haven’t done any of the trainings or gone to any of the talks/meeting about that, I can’t help you.
Second, we don’t have time. We’re constantly meeting about how to survive as 25% of our budget is illegally cut off by the fascists.
Avatar: Aang, the Last Airbender, a film without an official release date confirmed, in Letterboxd’s ‘popular this week’ tab
An unreleased film that got leaked due to poor studio management and security just broke into the ‘popular this week’ on Letterboxd. Well, David Ellison, now you’re going to *have* to put it in cinemas
lol yes
May just drop that on her as we exit the bus.
So true.
How do you not know to run for it when a man shows up like this?
Young woman on the bus next to me is complaining to her friend about her new love-bombing boyfriend of three days who has already asked her if she’d introduce him to her father for an internship at an investment bank. “But is he cute,” she asks and shows her phone to her friend. Should I tell her?
It’s very hard to take the AI bros’ sudden embrace of UBI seriously when they are simultaneously cheering Trump’s destruction of the welfare states, tbh
“There is a certain amount of hubris required to throw oneself at an unsolved problem. But elsewhere, that hubris is a liability.“
“By stripping the right to asylum, nations are creating a growing underclass of placeless, rightless people to police in perpetuity, and an ever-greater policing apparatus with which to crack down on them—and, increasingly, everyone else.”
Absolutely essential reading on global borders and asylum.
HIRE KATHRYN. In an age of journalism in a death spiral, she's the real deal as investigative journalist, an excellent writer, a true thinker, and a real human being. She knows Christian nationalism as well as anyone.
The social media pivot from chronological timelines to popular-first was done at least partly to throttle real time organizing
And given the history of Stonewall, they should either stand up for trans people or take the name off the organization.

BREAKING: The so called 'SAVE' Act has FAILED in the Senate and will not become law.
I wrote this piece on how in reality, this is the Voter Restriction Act to prevent women from voting. It is fascism and would have installed Trump as a permanent dictator. www.qasimrashid.com/p/the-save-a...
It is DEEPLY important to get non-millionaires, non-tech-industry-hacks, and non-Wall-Street people onto Boards of Trustees of Colleges and Universities. I've seen @syed.nyc in action in the Working Families Party and hope you'll vote for him if you're a Wesleyan grad.
It's official: The House has sworn in Democratic Rep. Analilia Mejia.
Forbes is gamifying news about the horrific mass shooting in Shreveport, LA this weekend, encouraging readers to bet on the likelihood of gun regulation with fake money via its "ForbesPredict" feature.
