Jalen Brunson is The Captain for a reason, I loved this profile www.vanityfair.com/culture/stor...

The NYC Democratic party is weak because it is run by charlatans and grifters who want to enrich themselves and couldn't give less of a damn about politics. We need to kick all of them out.

Our country is so broken. This cannot continue

Always

btw the civility panic a few years ago was about precisely this: the ability to have polite conversations about how black people are racially inferior in public without criticism or backlash bsky.app/profile/hann...

You can call the governor today. “My name is X. I live in X, zip code X. I am calling to urge the governor to support and sign the New York 4 All Act. If she does not, I will support her opponent in the primary this summer.” Add any details you like, like prosecuting ICE agents under NYS law.

BREAKING: Immigration officers are asserting sweeping power to enter homes without a judge’s warrant, a memo obtained by AP says.

A very merry Christmas brought to me by the Knicks

I like being an uncle for the holidays because: Mom and dad are responsible, and will discipline you. Grandpa and Grandma are indulgent, and will coddle you. But the uncle... the uncle is unpredictable. The niece and nephew cannot know what the uncle will do, because the soul of the uncle is CHAOS

I find a universal quality among Americans is our absolute loathing for anyone who mentions an ancestor came on the Mayflower

bring back maligning racism as the mark of a stupid person. prejudice is the mark of an idiot. if you believe that shit i bet you also don’t wipe your ass

This is the proudest I have felt to be a New Yorker and an American in years

I think Brunson is about to go on a burner

I just don’t think we’re freaking out enough about this SNAP cut. I have spent my whole career working with people who rely on SNAP for food. People who work multiple jobs. Who have kids. What do you think happens when 1/8th of the population can’t buy food anymore? Everything is going to collapse.

New housing stops landlords from raising rents—take it from the CEO of AvalonBay, one of NYC's largest landlords: "We're well-positioned… we face significantly less new supply. Land entitled for multifamily is hard to come by, the amount of time it takes to get those entitlements… sets us up well.”

Andrew Cuomo is a vile racist piece of shit. Democrats need to tear this bigotry from the party root and stem

Let’s go Knicks

It's bing bong season.

This is one of the most consequential political acts of this year (yes, 2025). Hard to overstate how much good this is going to do in California and what it could spark nationwide calmatters.org/housing/2025...

This needs to be the message every day

If you aren’t watching A’Ja Wilson play you are missing one of the greatest athletes of all time at the peak of her career

This Lynx loss is on Cheryl Reeve. Why sit your big three when you’re only up by 10 in the playoffs?

Don't think I've ever felt this embarrassed to be an American. There's shame and anger too. But mostly embarrassment. We're the laughingstock of the developed world. And we should be.

I am sad about the Liberty. But Breanna Stewart is a legend, she put the whole team on her back

If Hochul gets him to resign I will vote for her next year. This man is why NY has the democrats that we do

Grim faced, determinedly speaking to the mirror when I wake up

The Department of Justice has removed a study showing that white supremacist and far-right violence “continues to outpace all other types of terrorism and domestic violent extremism” in the United States. 🔗 www.404media.co/doj-deletes-...

extremely interesting indicator of where we are in postmodern syncretism that the guys making Kirk out to be a hero of the Christian faith will simply not comment on a Hindu proposing that he is now in the afterlife of Norse Paganism.

Little too on the nose Liberty

Excited for the playoffs but sad to see the end of the regular season. Let’s go Liberty!

on a serious note it's incredible how little they cared about the guy. he wasn't even confirmed as dead, never mind his body cold, before they started pushing "lefist" and "trans" "terrorism" narratives. they saw the blood gush out of his neck and thought "this is an excellent opportunity."

Aliya Boston is massively underrated

The Liberty have some improvements to make of course, but these foul calls are ridiculous. Refs might as well be saying they’re not allowed to play defense

Well at least jury nullification is back in action

If the Liberty lose to the Sun I will simply have to walk into the sea

By a vote of 27-17, Senate Democrats voted to stop sending arms shipments to a Netanyahu government which has waged a horrific, immoral and illegal war against the Palestinian people. The tide is turning. Americans don't want to spend billions to starve children in Gaza.

Liberty holding up much better against the Lynx than I expected. Just waiting for Collier to step on the gas though…

I would like the Liberty to win and not get rolled by the Wings please. Stewie out, JJ still recovering, Sab and Tash having off nights... this is rough

Thank you to @monachalabi.bsky.social for this powerful graphic, which starkly pictures the severity of the Israeli government’s policy of mass death through forced starvation.

Do this all day Dems

Two videos offer the first glimpse inside the detention site on the 10th floor of 26 Federal Plaza, where dozens of immigrants are being held for days at a time, according to an analysis by THE CITY of Immigration and Customs Enforcement data through the end of June. buff.ly/2RYycPt

A horrifying statement published today by the Editorial Committee of the Agence France-Presse (AFP) news agency. "Without immediate intervention, the last reporters in Gaza will die" Translation from French to English by @cnorristrent.bsky.social:

They murdered somebody during one of their raids. They actually did it.

I think officers and agents at ICE should be thinking less about the push for quotas and more about the fact that "just following orders" is not a defense when facing a genocide tribunal.

Donald Trump is attacking me because he is desperate to distract from his war on working people. We must and we will fight back.

In today’s @bostonglobe.com Kenia Guerrero writes about the loss of her husband. He is not dead but he is gone, disappeared by ICE. Please — I implore you — read every word and share. Since the Globe doesn’t have gift articles I have screenshotted the entire piece. We can’t turn away from this. 1/2

I’m sick of being told it’s not practical to want a better world by people who have forgotten how to dream (for @literaryhub.bsky.social)

This is so monstrously evil and every person involved in it is going to burn in hell
