This paint job—if you can call it that—is costing you $7 million, America, because Trump gave a no-bid contract to a pal This would have been Exhibit A of the sort of shit DOGE was actually *supposed* to be looking for when it was instead cutting lifesaving scientific research

Mayor Zohran Mamdani drew a hard line. He signed an executive order barring ICE from NYC property — schools, hospitals, shelters, parking lots - without a judicial warrant. Sanctuary protections strengthened. Immigrant rights defended. Federal overreach blocked. NYC stood up.🙌🏼🙌🏼

How is it possible that Theo of Golden - evangelical Christian self published drivel - is a NY Times Bestseller with a 4.52 rating on goodreads? I can’t get over how this white savior proselytizing is masquerading as literary fiction. How is no one talking about this?? There is a literal sermon.

PLUTO IS A DOG

I still think Democrats will win the House given the national environment. If they do not, and it's because of courts permitting gerrymandering for one side, there is going to be a very strong argument that we're in Orbán territory.

I gave my dog a new felted toy to play with. Within minutes the capybara was no more. Poor capybara.

RFK Jr. showing his eugenicist beliefs. Here he is today at The City Club in Cleveland: "The average American who died from COVID had 3.8 chronic diseases. So what was really killing them? It was almost impossible for COVID to kill a healthy person. It was killing people who were already sick."

At this point, you should just click on the post below and see all the historians who have done their own great threads picking apart this thing.

Really spelling bee? This is a word…. @nytimes.com

I joined NY’s Cutest on the Bergen Bike Bus that they ride to school every Wednesday, rain or shine. We’re adding bike boulevards and more pedestrian space on Bergen and Dean Street, from Court Street to East New York Ave. It was a wonderful kind of day.

Are you a doctor treating transgender patients in a state with restrictions on gender-affirming care? I am an investigative reporter and I want to talk to you. If you’re not, mind sharing this post?

funniest thing i’ve ever seen

She’s just so cute.

It’s a cult.

Generational tweet that might even spawn a school of architecture.

NEW: Babies Are Bleeding to Death as Parents Reject a Vitamin Shot Given at Birth The vitamin K shot, a lifesaving injection given to newborns to prevent uncontrollable bleeding of the brain and intestines, has become collateral damage of the anti-vaccine movement.

Flavored vapes and now children in tanning beds. They’re really into preventative medicine. 🙄

No Kid Hungry recently released a survey of parents and it revealed that in 2025, 24% of respondents went into credit card or another form of debt (Klarna, etc.) to have sufficient food to feed their kids. Not themselves, just their kids. 20% skipped meals so their kids could eat, 17% skipped bills.

This is the best grocery store sorbet flavor that has ever existed.

What is happening?!?

While the world’s eyes are on fashion’s biggest night, we’re turning ours to the garment, retail, and warehouse workers who keep the industry running. From true love found on the picket line to a free tailoring school out of a Brooklyn basement — meet the New Yorkers who make it all possible.

It was shocking to me to realize that lots of people don’t know that 1) the Met Gala is a fundraiser for the Met Costume Institute And 2) that the Met Costume Institute exists and is wonderful and important

When our daughter was a year old she had heart transplant A gift given to us in our darkness by a stranger in their own She was given back to us, not fixed but better. Every day after that has been a gift, every day a day we shouldn’t have had #Poetry #Poemoftheday #giftoflife #donatelife

The Five Boro Bike Tour is like riding through our city with 30,000 friends! Glad to run into these two on the FDR southbound: @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social & (fellow former comptroller) @liunewyork.bsky.social.

Cartoon by John Deering 💯💯💯🎯🎯🎯

just for the record, the War Powers Resolution requires the president to terminate the *use of the armed forces* after 60 days, not just declare the conflict terminated.

This man really needs a math lesson.

Goodbye, get lost, and we'll see you soon.

The new nominee for surgeon general works at my hospital. So…

as long as john roberts has his majority, there is simply no pro democracy reform that will survive the supreme court. none.

My hospital changed apple juice providers and my life has basically been ruined.

One thing that sucks about AI is how it has degraded trust between students and professors.

Sometimes there are actually no words.

New CDC weight loss campaign.

It. Is. All. A. Grift.

Between this starry trio and the Obama Mamdani event, reading aloud to preschoolers is the new political power lunch

So now it’s a disputed territory between the UK, Argentina… and the US?

Sycophants.

Not great

"Waymo has told advocates that expecting it to respect bike lanes is 'too high a bar' because customers expect to be dropped off in them." To be crystal clear, it's illegal for a car to be in a bike lane. It doesn't matter what Waymo's customers expect; the company shouldn't be doing it.

Jay Bhattacharya, who is best known for ranting about COVID conspiracies and “coverups” for the past 5 years, is now literally suppressing the data on COVID vaccines…because he is an antivaccine hack not a scientist

they are calling it the perfect summary of the "keep men out of women's sports" movement

It is objectively bad for democracy that both blue and red states are doing extreme gerrymanders. But the only feasible solution — a national ban on partisan gerrymandering — has only been endorsed by one party. And it's not the one complaining about Virginia right now.

The acting head of the CDC has canceled the publication of a study that found that the Covid vaccine sharply cut the odds of hospitalizations and emergency visits last winter www.nytimes.com/2026/04/22/u...

this is amazing!

RFK Jr: "President Trump has a different way of calculating percentages. If you have a $600 drug and you reduce it to $10, that's a 600% reduction."

Thank you @msklibrary.bsky.social for recognizing that my interlibrary loan requests are so outstanding! I think they're pretty cool, too!

Blue wave November is coming.

1. The central claim in the indictment of SPLC is a lie. The DOJ/FBI accuse SPLC of lying to donors about seeking to “dismantle” extremist groups while secretly funding them. But the funds were used to infiltrate & help law enforcement dismantle these groups. Kash Patel knows this is the truth…
