Mamdani hasn't had time to really think about all that space he now has, because he spends most of his time at City Hall and around New York City. He tries to keep a semblance of his old life by getting around the city on foot, by bike or train. "If you spend every single day driving around in a tinted window security detail, you will have a very specific view of the city," he said. "You actually meet other New Yorkers and you break out of the bubble that so many have come to expect of politics, where politicians only seem to be spending time with other politicians or the people who donated to make them politicians."

I'd say that this applies to anyone traveling in a car in any city. Being in a car versus walking, riding, or taking transit fundamentally changes how you view a place and your relationship to it. I wish more leaders set this kind of example.

Yes, the Grink was there. I'm getting to that. He was on that island with me. And I wouldn't be alive to tell my story without him.

Spending $4.00 to put Eyes of the World on at the bar, don't @ me

how much money does the marine corps lose

Only a master deal maker could achieve the status quo of 5 weeks ago in exchange for accomplishing nothing of value and turning his country into a global pariah. Thank you sir

Man or Astro-Man at the Empty Bottle the day after my birthday, I'm gonna go buck wild. Haven't seen them since like 2011.

If you still watch WWE you deserve whatever slop you get

I got a 1TB that I'm loading up! re-ripping all my CDs as FLAC will be a long project

Just spectacular. Tops Go Kurosawa's "soft shakes"—no small feat—as the best of the post-Kikagaku Moyo LPs. On repeat all day.

Sure! "Cyclists have a right to the road, too, you noisy, polluting, inconsiderate maniacs! I hope gas goes up to eight bucks a gallon!"

$8 a gallon for gas???

That's right

neither a garrison state nor an apartheid state, just a normal country, a bastion of democracy even, that happens to subject an ethnically distinct population to a different, militarized legal system complete with capital punishment

ICE caused a u-12 soccer game to be cancelled because families were justifiably afraid of the secret police

My son’s final game of a soccer tournament this morning was cancelled this morning because of increasing ICE activity in Nashville.

I cannot wait for all the people that caused this to be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

Oh hell yeah
