Back by popular demand!
By making people remember Peanut.
It’s @jdcmedlock.bsky.social’s gamble all over again.
MIKE’S ON! HE’S READY TO GO ON THE FAN! NEW YORK SPORTS RADIO MIKE’S ON! MIKE’S ON!
Sounds Cool to me!
Gimme Liberal is there for the taking, but the Right can’t meme.
This is the strongest evidence yet that 2025 is 2020 minus COVID.
The "Jimmy Kimmel is to Trump 2 as Tom Hanks was to COVID" is a possible outcome for sure.
That was Jimmy Fallon, not Kimmel.
Yes, Jimmy Kimmel
one of my silly takes is that truth is actually a core liberal value--truth, not relativism--and what demsas argues here is absolute capitulation to pure relativism sure bad ideas are as important to teach as good ones lies as important as truth surely this will allay all attacks on universities,
While a majority matters since the NYT/NYP will weaponize failure to reach that against Zorhan, it is worth remembering that LaGuardia didn't even get 41% of the vote for his first mayoral term. With an endless barrage of news, will most people remember 2025 election margins in January?
Imagine her kid came out as bi 20 years from now…
Ladies and gentlemen, we have a TIRP (Trans Inclusive Radical Patriarchy)
We won’t have Adams to kick around anymore :(
They fight it, but Bouie and others get laid off to pay the legal bills.
I’m still of the belief that Zohran hasn’t hit his ceiling yet. Not everyone paid attention to the primary, and TV ads haven’t started.
Soy right moment.
Hochul better give her the boss call she gave to Suozzi.
I stand firm that Vance does not have the juice. Tucker Carlson, on the other hand...
I thought of Lois first.
It’s gonna be the most tremendous Crisis of Confidence anyone’s ever seen, believe me.
I can vividly imagine the Drizz drinking alone at a bar, seeing today's news on TV, and shaking his head.
Important to remember that everyone involved in renaming the DoD to the Department of War is afraid to take the subway.
Love the sights there. Commutes on the Labubu Turnpike and the Dubai Chocolate Expressway have terrible traffic though.
I'm hoping Schlossberg runs for the content.
I don't know, you might find a few hundred dollars in there!
Can't wait until people repost this during the Long, Hot Summer of 2028.
Feel like the replies to your post are underestimating how mundane the truth you're suggesting is.
Could've had LBJ on top of the ticket if he also hadn't waited the day before the convention.
In hindsight, we shouldn't be surprised that American autocracy would come about through The Power of Positive Thinking.
I still think most people don't see what's coming: the midterms will largely be as free and fair as 2024. Whether the incoming congressmembers will be sworn in is another matter. Trump can't cancel elections, but can do a 1/3 sequel to 1/6 by using a militarized DC to create a rump Congress.
Yes
An @afm-union.bsky.social and @sagaftra.org gal. An NFLPA guy. We love a union love story. Congrats Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce!
Getting IHOB flashbacks from this story.
What are your thoughts on Louis Boudin and his critique of SCOTUS as the biggest institutional enemy of organized labor? Do you think it'd be viable to have the anti-SCOTUS labor movement he called for over a century ago?
This is almost as creepy as the Happy Meal box mascot McDonalds had over a decade ago.
The media (NYPost and NYT in particular) are out to get Mamdani, but Adams' corruption is taking away the news cycles they need to make a negative story stick. Truly a blessing in disguise.
They fell of in January, we're skidding rn.
Being a NYC government official and trying to bribe Katie Honan is like being an affiliate of a Gotham crime syndicate and trying to bribe Batman. This is comically dumb as hell
Should've given the cash to @realgershkuntzman.bsky.social to make inroads with The Bike Lobby.
You don't need to send troops to the polling places; all that's needed is one threatening phone call per site, as seen in Atlanta last year.
We got liberation theology Kathy Hochul before GTA 6.
Merits of the video aside, I wonder how Richards's endorsement affects his potential to be picked for Lt. Gov. Makes a nod to Speaker Adams more likely imo.
I'm worried that Trump will do 1/6 in the last weeks of the year to prevent Mamdani from being sworn in. As with his Uganda trip, I'm sure Mamdani and his team are discussing contigency plans with AG James.
Well, if you're happy I'm happy!
Yeah, he could end up as a Gravel 2008 at worst.
It's Robert Moses attaching himself to Smith/LaGuardia, forever.
I'd prefer for the series finale to be a Cuomo family vote on what to get for dinner. Cuomo loses and they settle on pierogis, only for Dershowitz to become terminally ill due to food poisoning.
Reducing the sacrifice of Jesus to the public masturbation of Diogenes is certainly a take.

Once again, the playbook is public: to end democracy in all cities that Republicans have power over. www.peoplefor.org/rightwingwat...
The buck stops with them in their states, and they all have career-defining elections coming in the forseeable future (POTUS for Newsom, reelection for Hochul and Pritzker.)
Even in the worst case scenario where the seat is practically unwinnable, I still think it's better for Brown to serve as a sacrificial lamb instead of a potential rising star torching their image as a statewide loser.
Nice to see the Party of Small Government at work.
As for Shinji himself, he voted Communist to piss off his LDP dad.
It’s Ultron all over again!
The High Price of Free Media
Biden didn't want his presidency to be defined by Trump. Ironically, his inaction assured that it always will.
Sounds like a Saturday morning cartoon villain. All that’s missing is the maniacal laugh.
Trump, in firing the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics, is fucking with the money. Rupert Murdoch and WSJ take money very seriously.
Yes, she currently is head of Operations for Hochul.
They don't believe in themselves as an institution, but they do believe in themselves *as a brand.* As long as they have a name they can raise money off of, agency and the details of governance are irrelevant.
@csilverandgold.bsky.social had a great thread on how the flattening of social media can flatten hierarchy so ordinary people can ratio influential people. I think the opposite may be true: sustained exposure to social media made elites feel powerless, so everyone's hoping the Godot-adult steps in.
They eat, shit, and cook their brains on X the same as anyone else.
In The Long, Lucrative Right-wing Grift Is Blowing Up in the World's Face, a text I go to frequently, Alex Pareene makes the argument that the mechanism that led to us getting Trump was the Republican elites and electeds consuming the same media that used to be only consumed by the rank and file.
Well, somebody has to make a “The Crown” style Robert Moses series.

At least President Kaine saves thousands of lives during COVID and wins a full term… before we get Nikki Haley in 2024.
Socialism with a Human Database
Metal is a bit much, but I’d like a Death tribute.
Despite the fact that it may cost thousands the morning after, Saul Goodman.
Can’t be challenged for your beliefs if you’re too daft to have any consistent ones.
Brooklyn Bridge Park
To be fair, a quid pro quo to get a merger is arguably a "financial decision."
If he walked, the 200 people he mentioned would lose their jobs immediately too.
We had all the ingredients, but the brainrot needed to marinate.
Read too fast and thought this was about Andy Byford for a second.
It’s eerie for Trump seem nervous about something, when he’s managed to barrel through almost every other scandal. How bad can this be?
He's gonna force them to call Mexican Coke American Coke.
It’s the strict father (right) vs nurturing parent (left) models. Love George Lakoff’s work on this.
I'd rather expand the Board to have more seats; if each suburban county has 1 seat, each NYC county should have 1 too, while keeping the mayoral ones.
It’s going to be a rough landing when the labor and tax pools are too small to take care of seniors.
"As beef prices rise, America rediscovers the delicacy of dirt."
At the RNC, where I wanna be
Lied too close to the sun.
It's not about respecting people's intelligence, which is necessary but not sufficient; it's about having Hot Nerds.
I know I shouldn't give advice to billionaires, but: they can phonebank too.
I feel like the richest man in the world turning the 8th biggest website on the internet into a full on Nazi AI chatbot should be a bigger news story. Or a news story at all. Oh well, guess I'm wrong
While bad news overall, is this good news for QueensLink? According to the article, QueensWay lost almost all its money, so we’re back at square 1.
Here's how Lander can still win
Many people are saying the NYT is a glorified tabloid
It’s plausible he got into debt in his pre-Assembly days and prioritized paying it off.
It is not immigrants who are lazy. It is the government. The government who is lazy.
Speaking of tariffs: it's surreal that I've seen no one talking about Liberation Day 2 being next week
Can't pull up this up, but remember seeing a similar thread in 2020 about a Trump supporter who caught COVID and died, with one of their last posts being about struggling to breathe. May their deaths not be in vain.
No matter the size of the ratio to this post, it will always be too small
Doesn't help that the Nixon Foundation has the best social media game of the Presidential Libraries.
If you're pissed off at the NYT, here's your chance to put my money where your mouth is. This long weekend, I will donate $0.50 to @thecity.nyc for each of: - every new Bluesky follower I get - every new Bluesky follower THEY get - everyone who reposts this post
