“My ‘I am not a wife beater’ shirt seems to provoke more questions than it answers”

I joined the DSA eight years ago When I joined, we were so small scale that I had to paint banners for marches on bedsheets Eight years later, we won the mayorship of the greatest city on earth

Pretty disgusting that Larry Summers would openly associate with an A.I. company.

Currently at NewYork-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell Medical Center ER for a loved one. Despite having tons of empty seats inside they are not letting family members wait for loved ones and having been forcing people to wait outside in the cold for the last six hours

Oh the beautiful look of the world’s most obvious bubble about to pop

I’m having my first ever museum solo show at Posterhouse: The Museum of Poster Art. It’s open now until April posterhouse.org/exhibition/u...

In 2022, I commissioned @mollycrabapple.bsky.social to make a portrait of @sfdirewolf.bsky.social, as part of a series for the release of The Viral Underclass. Molly signed if for her. Alice was so excited to have a Molly Crabapple of herself!

In the Williamsburg Hassidic magazine טרייבל they did an exit poll of Satmar voters. One Mamdani voter says "I truly hope Mamdani wins so that heymish Zionists get a good spanking"

Hakeem Jeffries dismissed Mamdani’s team as “Team Gentrifiers,” drawing a line between natives and transplants. “Zohran said ‘no’ to this,” Dandia continued. “The dividing line is not the accident of birth, but the billionaires who profit and the rest of us.” www.thenation.com/article/poli...

'"There is no good way to say this" but to say this: AI is the antithesis of education. It is the antithesis of the future. As such, it is a kind of epistemological death, and I recognize... we have long been surrounded by such efforts; we are grieving already. And yet, we go on.'

Almost sold out of these prints I did of Lahore www.mollycrabapple.com/shop/p/i-alw...

My ACA current plan is going from $385/mo to $821/mo.

As someone with stents in my brain who relies on health care... Yeah. Like even healthy business owners needed that shit. We're getting in to an age where there's no small business, period. No more single proprietor, no more mom-and-pop, nothing.

Join the DSA. www.dsausa.org

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person. The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person. People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives. And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

So every freelancer you know is going to lose their insurance or be bankrupted by premiums because Schumer is an invertebrate

stoked about this upcoming zoom lecture with @mollycrabapple.bsky.social we're hosting at the Peretz Centre on Dec 7th. it's free, check it out.

Only four of my prints of Zohran are left in the store. $30 from each sale goes to NYC DSA www.mollycrabapple.com/shop/p/zohra...

I honestly don’t get the value of this company. They hoover up energy and water. Their product constantly gets things wrong and, in extreme cases, coaches people into suicide. And it’s all built on what seems to be malicious and vast intellectual property theft. What does OpenAI offer the world?

Not to be all identity politics but it is really nice to have an illustrator First Lady

“Álvaro López, the electoral coordinator for the New York City Democratic Socialists of America, believes “we need to get away from a ‘holding them accountable’ framework toward a ‘building power’ framework.” hammerandhope.org/article/mamd...

“I am still in ecstasy over this,” said artist Molly Crabapple in an interview about Zohran Mamdani’s victory in New York City.

Do any editors who follow me want to commission an essay on Zohran and the legacy of Jewish socialist New York

This 2021 piece abt the taxi medallion hunger strike by my friend @mollycrabapple.bsky.social can be read as a kind of prehistory of the Mamdani campaign. You have Mamdani before he was MAMDANI, Schumer in a curiously sympathetic role … www.thenation.com/article/soci...

One way to think about the Mamdani campaign is that 14 years ago Mayor Bloomberg and Gov Cuomo worked to crush Occupy Wall Street - a social movement gesturing at what working class politics might look like in a country with a marginalized & disorganized left. Today, Cuomo and Bloomberg will lose.

I have a few prints left of my Zohran Mamdani portrait. $30 from each print goes to @socialists.nyc, my political home www.mollycrabapple.com/shop/p/zohra...

Victory is the best argument

Remember what it feels like to win

Eric Adams reluctantly transferring boarding passes to Istanbul, on-going extortion schemes to the Mamdani team

It is so sweet that we won It is nearly as sweet that those fuckers lost Goodbye pissbabies. See you in the suburbs

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 5: Vito Marcantonio There are many who dismiss our vision for New York as impossible. To them, I say we need look only to our past for proof of how we can shape the future. Tomorrow is Election Day. And this is the final Until It's Done of our campaign.

This disgusting Cuomo campaign sign says “Mamdani for mayor means a Holocaust for Jews, god forbid”

Canvassing with my hero @naomiaklein.bsky.social

Today is only the beginning. Our time has come, New York. Our time is now.

Vote for Zohran because he has sought to speak to every part of this jagged mosaic of a place - even the parts that slander and defame him — because they also belong to New York. This is our city. All of ours. mollycrabapple.substack.com/p/we-heart-n...

@mollycrabapple.bsky.social with the final words for the night:

At tonight's canvas for Zohran, @naomiaklein.bsky.social said New York is the antithesis of fascism. Let's prove it She also said that when you're a serious person, you have serious enemies. Time to teach them a lesson

Great closing argument

If you’re registered to vote in NYC, and didn’t have an opportunity to participate in early voting, I encourage you to take the time to cast a ballot for @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social tomorrow. Molly has a great explanation for why you should, so I’m just gonna point you to her.

"The Mamdani campaign has given this community a new sense of political confidence and purpose.”

Over the next day and a half, we have the chance to seize history. We can show the billionaires an essential truth. This city belongs to us. open.substack.com/pub/mollycra...

Perfect @mollycrabapple.bsky.social piece:

Go get a print of our next mayor. www.mollycrabapple.com/shop/p/zohra...

It's because they are New Yorkers, and they care about their community here in New York, as opposed to an emotional support ethnostate on the other side of the world. forward.com/fast-forward...

I would like for national political reporters to place a moratorium on “But what will voters in the rest of America think about New York City’s socialist mayor?” We don’t care! Red states are notably full of psycho politicians yet rarely do you see pundits asking Brooklyn people about them.

He never misses
