The real fear of Zohran Mamdanis critics is not that he fails but that he succeeds. Americans might ask, wait the government can be competent? Why isn’t our city competent?

Doing exactly what a mayor should be doing in a storm — highly visible, overly communicative, praising and thanking city workers. Excellent. My only criticism is on behalf of Carribean moms everywhere: where is your hat Mr. Mayor?!
The @NYCMayor stopped by Central Park to greet @NYCParks workers near the Harlem Meer which is frozen over this morning. Mamdani told us he ultimately made the call to close schools because of safety concerns — icy conditions will make travel treacherous for the day and tomorrow

I’m going to say something and it’s going to be very hard for you to understand Feminism isn’t about choices, it’s about liberation The presence of choices doesn’t necessitate the reality of freedom. Even those on the plantation had choices, but they were still not free.
It’s “women should get to choose what they do with their own bodies” until a woman decides to become a surrogate and the internet goes into psychosis over it

Some on this platform complained that a #StarfleetAcademy cadet "swallowing her com-badge" is "ridiculous ". On behalf of the franchise, I wish to apologize for " tribbles", which are "ridiculous " - - unless you have a sense of humor, which many @StarTrek fans have.

I can roll my eyes and accept (but ignore) religious people who are anti-IVF bc that’s just their stupid religious dogma at play, but people who aren’t conservative and are ostensibly leftist being against IVF outright are the biggest morons on the planet IMO.

The word "book" has its roots in the distant past, when stories were told in the moonlight around crackling campfires. Derived from Old German "buoh" meaning "beech". Why exactly beech? The old theory is that the Germans in the deep forests of Germany used beech bark and slabs

I like that Sisko says this speech to Kira because she understands more than anyone that you can't judge people who are fighting to survive in any way they can

Why is a so-called “Working Families Tax Cut” going to seniors—the wealthiest demographic—who are mostly no longer working and whose children have long since grown up and moved out? Why not make the tax cut for the people who are actually working and raising families?
America’s seniors will see a new $6,000 bonus exemption as a part of the Working Families Tax Cut. That’s $93 billion in tax cuts for seniors all over the country.
