While a candidate, @mayor.nyc.gov pledged to commit 0.5% of the city’s budget to public libraries.

Unfortunately, Mayor Mamdani has broken this promise in his preliminary FY27 budget, released yesterday, where he allocated 0.39% to libraries.

This amount is well below the promised 0.5%

Just for fun, would it be possible for the wishlists to have the superhero name instead of letter? No pressure, obviously not high priority.

I'm very glad to hear renewables are overtaking fossil fuels and it's not a shell game! I was trying to be discerning/incredulous and appreciate you responding with helpful sources.

I am just confused by that last line which makes it seem like Pakistan is switching out gas imports for domestic. Maybe the LNG in Pakistan is just a really tiny sliver of the energy pie? I don't know, and my googling has been inconclusive.

Just want to double check my understanding, second to last line "...could save Pakistan up to $100 million per month in foreign exchange and reduce system congestion, allowing local exploration companies to increase domestic gas output."

Are they saving from renewables? Or switching to local gas?

Completely understandable. Are there any folks in the energy space who you recommend? I'd love to get a different perspective but not at the expense of your well being. Thanks!

These are great, but for everyone to read them, the images would need alt text. Would you consider reposting with alt text added so everyone can learn from this thread?

There's also a setting that sets up an alt text reminder whenever you post an image, if that would be helpful.

I am nervous about what our sidewalks will look like the weekend before and after the inauguration.

We tend to get ~guest stars~ and the worst behavior from protesters around big political events.

Now's a great time to sign up to get trained, so we can have a strong showing in January.

@prisonculture.bsky.social earnest Q: I often see folks say the left eats its own, gatekeepers, purity tests etc. Are there resources/guides on how to build diverse coalitions? How do we differentiate between helpful coalition allies vs those who might ultimately hinder? How do we move together?
