BREAKING: Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer has resigned.

"Star Trek is too political now"

Bro we had a black lady and a RUSSIAN serving on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 60s. Pretty fuckin political then.

First interracial kiss, too. First lesbian kiss in the 90s in DS9. Several races of aliens that don't adhere to a gender binary-- need I go on?

Today, President Barack Obama and I read to a group of toddlers at Learning Through Play Pre-K Center in the South Bronx. 

In between singing wheels on the bus, we discussed our administration’s vision for this City — one where New York’s Cutest have the strongest start possible.

Always has been

previous NYC governor, Andrew Cuomo:

I’ve been firmly team Porter in the CA Governor race.

However…

…if Steyer is serious about vowing to jail ICE agents, I may be forced to reconsider 👀

I don't recall any previous transformative technologies that had to be sold to the public so hard. No one in 1999 was going, "Guys. Cell phone? It's coming, whether we like it or not. I think it's important, FOR WOMEN ESPECIALLY, to learn about cell phone. So that we're not left behind!!"

Another thing that is confusing the political commentariat about Mamdani is that he isn't going to run for President because he can't. So they can't write their usual 'he's a political climber' story lines and I think that has also broken something in them.

Incredible news

As a new mom, I get it

A photo of blossoming pink flower buds and a headline that reads “ECONOMIC POLICY - On Tax Day, Mamdani Taxed the Rich - The mayor, his supporters, and public opinion convinced their previously reluctant governor to agree to a tax on the second (or third, fourth, fifth, etc.) homes of their city's nonresident rich.”

Change is in the air, New York. Here are a few things blooming.

this morning, mamdani’s team got in touch with me to float a new tax proposal: if your net worth exceeds $5 million and you dress badly, you’ll be hit with a 10% annual levy for “visual pollution.” i would be in charge of deciding if the outfits are bad.

As a woman with a female gaze, simply do not do this. We don’t want this. We want Magnum PI. We want ‘79 Knicks. We want to see what your leg day do.

BREAKING: Elizabeth Warren has introduced a bill that would allow you to file taxes for free directly with the IRS.

The bill has support on both sides of the aisle, and would bring back and expand the free taxing filing program that the Trump administration killed off.

Bears are incorrect on matters of shitting in the woods.

People ask me all the time for my favorite Onion headline, and there are like 200 of them, but my favorite recent print headline is easily this:

caffeine is perfect when you're having trouble concentrating and would rather be having trouble concentrating while vibrating

The effective federal corporate income tax rate:

1950: 50%
1990: 25%
2020: 13%

Stop asking "but how we will pay for it?" Restore the corporate tax rate.

That is how we will pay for it.

They’re too smart. Too cunning. They poop way. Too. Much.

Is your new editorial strategy just publishing rage bait?

Lightning strike in San Francisco! Exciting!

This could literally replace my SSRI

As a former NCAA athlete, I couldn’t agree more.

Trans women are women.

Swalwell always gave me the ick and I couldn’t explain why. Now it makes sense. Your body can sense a lot of things.

I’m friends with a former staffer from 10+ years ago and while he never mentioned potential SA or creepy behavior, he DID say that Swalwell was not very smart and kind of an asshole.

told my son his little wispy teenage mustache makes him look like burt reynolds circa 1987 and he asked me if i was the oldest man alive. that's fair actually.

BREAKING: DOJ investigating Iran for Mortgage Fraud.

Marco Rubio drinking out of a teeny tiny water bottle and looking ridiculous. Just the dumbest little man with the smallest little water bottle.

JD Vance being an absolute weirdo while ordering donuts. Seriously he couldn’t act normal for 5 minutes and just order donuts like a regular human adult person this guy sucks.

Ah yes, the heirs apparent to the GOP throne, charismatic powerhouses those two.

How it feels doing literally any task right now.
