Monsters walk among us

For all the talk of hedge fund managers and racist podcasters fleeing New York, I’ve seen no discussion of people who now want to move TO New York with the promise of lower rent, better transit and universal child care

Can a historian help me, is not feeding or paying your troops typically a good idea

Flying Squirrel Loves It Every Time

Wonder why this scene looks so familiar... #WildlifeWednesday 🐦🐕

it's really hard to overstate how each an every one of these people doing this is the most annoying, loudmouth, chronically divorced, piece-of-shit loser that anyone in their family or neighborhood knows. All of America's failsons and unemployable fuckups have been given license to kidnap

Seeing Like a Nate.

They offered Curtis Sliwa $10 million dollars to drop out of the race and he said no!! Genuinely impressive. That’s principle. Gotta respect it. He would’ve turned down the Riyadh Comedy Festival, for SURE.

TRANSITION CO-CHAIR LINA KHAN!?!?!??!

here is my story about how Zohran's focus on community amid the loneliness epidemic helped young people connect their politics to an organizing infrastructure, that interviewed ZM, and does not use the NYT's framing of "they don't know how to make friends" :-) and also ran 4 days before NYT's lol

good morning specifically to the FBI agent who introduced Mamdani’s dad to Marx

Stop stop I already love him

Loser shit

A 34-year-old as a politician: My god he's like a baby. It's like they just elected an infant to be their mayor. A 34-year-old as an athlete: You have to admire the bravery of him attempting that dunk, knowing full well the grim reaper is right behind him.

so this month i’m supposed to buy a pumpkin, then next month a turkey, and december a tree? can anyone explain what the fuck is going on?

It is funny that New York has its own Republican Island

Zohran at the rally for trans youth on february 8 ❣️ he was polling single digits.

Mario Cuomo, the candidate’s father, famously said that you campaign in poetry but govern in prose. But that, as it happens, is a false choice. An epitaph can be both. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

I ❤️ my NY friends

To my friend Andrew Cuomo — rest now, brother. We have the watch. And I'll see you in Valhalla.

Why Winning Races Is Bad For Democrats

Looking forward to learning all about how the right should move left to win elections tomorrow. They should maybe dye their hair pink, learn to love pronouns.

Astoria's Zohran watch party is so over packed that the backup bar (also a huge beer garden) is now full and virtually every bar in the neighborhood is reportedly filling fast

We have reached Lib Level 5, people who have “fluent in sarcasm” in their bios are now allowed to have wild celebratory boring middle class people sex

california democrats hire this queen immediately

here he comes old mr D himself, hey looks like he brought a bag lunch, smart

cheney died, free lib out privileges for at least 48 hours

I’m libbing out

ELECTION NIGHT REPORT: I have trapped myself in my office’s vestibule, Uncut Gems-style

This to me is the game. I don’t care if Schumer doesn’t like Mamdani, but for him to stand silently by while sex pest Cuomo leans into gutter racism and Islamophobia while accepting endorsements from Trump, Musk and Miller is outrageous from the Senate Minority Leader.

the fundamental central operating premise of this entire dominant ecosystem of what passes for the institutional "left" in this country is that you must carefully calibrate what you believe in light of what you perceive certain demographics to believe. but what wins elections is believing in shit

Former Teen Vogue politics editor Allegra Kirkland pays homage to ... what ... OUUUUCH: talkingpointsmemo.com/cafe/what-we...

Harrowing tale of the Salerno Sandwich Salvos from Dillion Winters

Extraordinary how many establishment Democrats really wish they didn't have a talented rising new star who connects to people by talking to them and understanding what their interests are, then speaking to those interests. Like a job where the new guy makes everyone look bad simply by doing the job.

this is such a great encapsulation of why this race feels existential even to people outside NYC. Cuomo as the final boss of everything wrong with the current Democratic Party, Mamdani happily grabbing the third rails everyone’s told are too dangerous to touch (trans people, Muslims, socialism)

BING BONG

If there's one thing I know about Donald Trump he is really good at disguising his true feelings

it must feel so good to have a brain that works like this

aloof wives only quietly steer campaigns when they are in distress

Live from New York, it’s MKE DSA!

thank you for all the support; the statement from our union is now live here with some more reporting. now that this is public I can confirm that the majority of today’s layoffs were women of color. there are no longer any Black women working at Teen Vogue.

Debating if I should check in on the person who told me “maybe we need a scumbag to fight a scumbag” re: Cuomo

Early vote numbers in NYC paint a picture of an electorate I don’t think anyone could have predicted.

most of this was our money by the way. not theirs. they didn’t earn it. they stole it by breaking our government and plundering it

If I heard the call of Cthulhu I would simply not answer it. Not my business.
