I know what you were going for, but it's also objectively hilarious to post "oh no I've made a mistake, I look like Angelina Jolie" lol

WANT TO SUPPORT NYC LIBRARIES?
Testify over zoom, in person, or simply submit written testimony for next week's preliminary budget city council meeting. Here's how you can do that!

Sorry are those boxes of pint glasses balanced over stairs?
If you want to help fight for library funding, please send this letter to your city councilmember: actionnetwork.org/letters/city...
Image showing Mayor Mamdani looking frustrated, with a text overlaid that reads “NYC Public Library Action Network” at the top, and in large bold letters text that reads “Mayor Mamdani did not honor his commitment to allocate 0.5% of the city expense budget to NYC public libraries in his preliminary budget” and then in smaller font below, there is text that reads “visit NYCPLAN.ORG for more information”
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%
Haha perfect 💖
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?
FYI, that's the NYC PLAN mayoral letter link, this is the link to the city council letter

An image of a phone and text on line ruled paper - the text says “calls will continue until library budgets improve! Join us in calling our city council members every Wednesday to let them know library funding is a non-negotiable priority! Ask for .5% of the budget for libraries!”
☎️ Wednesday phone zap time!
Join us in calling our City Council members to tell them library funding is a non-negotiable priority ☎️
Find your council member and use this helpful script to make your voice heard!

Good morning!
I’ve received so much support for my fundraiser already, and I’m so
grateful. But unfortunately I can’t stop here if I want to stay.
Repost/signal boost is greatly appreciated 🙏
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!

@cait.bsky.social This guy looks so much like Adonis. His name is Crouton and he's up for adoption!

There is a state law in NY the Protect Our Courts Act, I believe that's what he's referencing

Rooting for you! Best of luck with your interview 💖
@chelseagsummers.bsky.social fyi, there are remote writing and comms roles with this org
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?
I feel like that's what this song is warning about...

Oh these are lovely! Do you have a pattern you follow? I'd like to try to make some and would appreciate any advice/insight. Thanks 💚
@prisonculture.bsky.social I think you've spoken before about public kitchens, this looks kind of similar to an idea I think you described x.com/TheLastFarm/...
I would happily read this thread
For some reason I thought the PJs would be like juicy couture style with Pajamas written across the ass lol
