Iceland lost the distinction of being one of the last places in the world without a confirmed sighting of wild mosquitoes. Experts say the discovery is a sign of how rapid climate change and globalization are changing Iceland.

I really think Bad Dragon needs to sponsor Dropout after this season of @dimension20.bsky.social

Hey @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social - we start early voting on Friday. Cuomo's dropped AI Willie Horton. Endorse Mamdani already you coward.

I feel like I should be shocked but this is the guy who came up with the attack on Ed Koch that was simply “Vote for Cuomo, not the homo”* *Allegedly

Holy Willie Horton, Batman This is just holy shit

Cuomo can say Kościuszko but not Mamdani?

Wait did Mamdani just do an ad buy during the Knicks game?

Debate sickos, the final NYC mayoral debate is streaming here! Cosponsored by the great @thecity.nyc @wnyc.org @spectrumnewsny1.bsky.social and cohosted by @katiehonan.bsky.social @errollouis.bsky.social @thebrianlehrershow.bsky.social

Never thought I’d see a Simpsons clip become real but the season finale of Love Is Blind has given Ralph Wiggum a third dimension

Why are there no TikToks of high school theater departments excitedly reacting to learning that this spring’s musical will be “The Cradle Will Rock” ?

I’m very glad when a pitchers third strikeout of the game is caught looking so that the K goes the opposite way.

The second LaserDisc Rip today is rarer than the first, and also is by Japanese City Pop artist Tats Yamashita. Early 90s. New York City. Real people. A single day documented from morning to midnight. Christmas comes early this year: Christmas in New York. archive.org/details/chri...

I have been traveling and today I present to you...the thing I saw in the Frankfurt airport. Is it efficient? Undeniably. Does it probably work better than the normal way? Oh certainly. Produce less of a mess? Probably? But the existence of Condiment Udders gives me a deep, aghast disquiet.

Is there any organization or protest planned for Union Square in Manhattan? I saw a much larger NYPD contingent than usual getting off the 4 today.

Anyone see anything about jackboots on subways?

Whenever you hear someone invoke the unitary executive, remember the image below. This was an inevitable result of the unitary executive theory: Empowering a president to tyrannically destroy institutions that ensured our government reflects the rule of law rather than his personal whim.

We don't see anything wrong with it.

NEW — I'm suing DC Metro Police for the full body cam footage from the DOGE raid on the US Institute of Peace back in March. The public deserves to know why MPD chose to sell out the people they’re tasked with protecting in order to bend to Trump's will. I'm repped pro bono by @rcfp.org. Details:

The Trump administration is adamant that people not take or share photos of the White House destruction, so please keep this photo amongst us. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

This is probably the likely outcome. DC Comics, forced to go fash and use AI

It's October 21, New York City — population 8.5 million people — has had a grand total of 255 homicides for the year; and the feds are using an armored vehicle/thing to drive the six blocks from Canal/Broadway to Lafayette/Duane after hassling the guys selling Gucci fakes.

TPUSA ghouls are playing point and shoot with ICE. Awesome.

Me, in my 20s: Yeah I spent $100 on drugs. Cool shit is going to happen! Me, today: Yeah, I spent $100 on drugs. Fall allergies are awful but I have all the generic cetirizine hydrochloride and fluticasone I'll need to get through it.

We must respond with the Reichsbanner Schwarz-Rot-Gold

Having actually done a semester of World War Two historical simulation role play back in college [it was a class], none of us ended the term saying "hey, let's get Nazi tattoos"

Has @nywfp.bsky.social put out guidance for the NYC ballot initiatives?

future grandchild: like shit, from an ass? me in 30 years: Swear to God. Then he demolished the White House

I am stunned that a generation of republicans raised on manosphere subreddits and forums, 4chan, and X née Twitter feel comfortable calling themselves Nazis without prompting!

We all already knew that the Post was a) a rag and b) a Trump suckup but dang. "You, the GOP nominee [who famously dislikes Dear Leader] must drop out so that the race can be won by the Independent candidate, who we are on record hating and would immediately return to doing so."

I guess this is when we get to introduce the nation to the tale of the Bonwit Teller building: news.artnet.com/art-world/do...

A few people in colonial costumes complaining about immigrants was novel to NYT editors. Their friends don't do that. A running narrative would be exciting, especially after Obama won big. Millions rallying against Trump's authoritarian abuses? Bor-ring. NYT editors have heard that argument before.

The first look at the scale of Disney backlash after it suspended Kimmel. Wow>> “Antenna estimated a total of 3 million cancellations for Disney+ and 4.1 million for Hulu in September. Both of those figures far exceeded the trailing three-month averages for the services” www.wsj.com/business/med...

As many mentioned over the weekend when all the other horrid accounts started flooding in - unless seen otherwise, CPSC is your friend. He fights for Quinn the Quarantine Fox

it would be kind of metal if the Isabella Stewart Gardner team had just been lying in wait since the 90s training for this and finally struck a second time
