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.

In February 1777, General George Washington ordered the first mass immunization campaign in American history by mandating that his troops be inoculated against smallpox. He protected the Continental Army from an epidemic that was deadlier than British forces.

249 years later, we have this idiot.

89 candles would have set off the sprinklers, so we settled for one — and one perfect slice of cake (with @bradtakei.bsky.social on ice cream duty). Thank you to every friend, fan, and fellow traveler who has made these 89 years such a joyous voyage.

For those attending the White House Correspondents' Dinner this weekend, a small question:

Labour’s great green energy plan could be a legacy as vital as the NHS | Polly Toynbee Ed Miliband has a rare chance to do for the climate what Nye Bevan did for health: create something future generations will be proud of, says Guardian columnist Polly Toynbee

"Labour’s great green energy plan could be a legacy as vital as the NHS".

I agree. More power to Ed Miliband's elbow. Sod the haters in the rightwing press. They hate him because he's winning.

Over a thousand common swifts have been spotted flying across France today at key migration points … they’re flying home to us! Let’s hope their homes are waiting for them. Who has swifts sharing their homes?

David Attenborough takes on PHEASANTS!

“Native to Asia, but now released into our countryside on an industrial scale, over 30 million every year… eating vast numbers of insects, reptiles and amphibians every day.”

Time for the Government to regulate this out-of-control industry

"The masters of war pretend not to know that it takes only a moment to destroy, yet a lifetime is often not enough to rebuild. They turn a blind eye to the fact that billions of dollars are spent on killing and devastation, yet the resources needed for healing, education and restoration are nowhere to be found." -Pope Leo XIV

JD Vance defends Trump amid spat with Pope Leo: ‘Stick to matters of morality’ Catholic vice-president effectively tells Leo to stay in his lane after pope criticized the White House over the Iran war

Because apparently war, war crimes, cruelty, starvation, poverty, and threats to “destroy a civilisation”, do Not qualify as “matters of morality” with the US vice president

The FCC needs to delouse.

Bragging about shutting down opposing voices doesn't seem quite consistent with the "free speech" agenda that they also claim to be theirs.

Fuck fascists. We are taking our country back.

In another installment of Evil Ages You, I'd like to point out that this bald gray asshole is only 47 years old.

I honestly can't figure out why she cares so much.
