Gotham loves being the underdog in playoff soccer

A HISTORIC UPSET IN KC AS GOTHAM SLAY THE SHIELD WINNERS IN EXTRA TIME ‼️ 8th placed Gotham defies all odds to defeat the Current, becoming the FIRST team to defeat KC at home in 2025. Is this the beginning of another run from last playoff spot to champions for the Bats? 🦇👀

I just ran into a new (and impossible) security verification which I guess is being used to train AI, but what the hell. For the record, the panda in overalls was NOT the correct answer, and the sheep with dots was ALSO not the correct answer.

From the first session of the day in Zoom room one--very relatable zine fair use statement seems okay to share this lol?

Oh I need this for my library of data books!

I had to take approximately 10 million mandatory HR training video class things this week and I honestly think there should be a way to test out of them. I had no issue with the way the trans inclusion one was done, but yeah I didn't need it.

Mamdani cracks 1M votes, the first NYC mayor to do so since John Lindsay in 1969

Don't forget that Zohran Mamdani spent his entire campaign standing proudly beside the trans community. He went to trans rights rallies just to show support. He proudly waved trans rights flags without hesitation. He refused to back down in support of trans rights. That makes me happy.

Once you've voted, start making your plans to watch the big livestream tonight! If you have a bar that wants to be added to the big list of Hell Gate Mayoral Election Livestream watch parties, let us know!

Does no one in France have to take those annual KnowBe4 trainings???

DESIGN JUST DROPPED

Reading a book on the subway and running into the person who recommended the book to you in your car is just one of those magical NYC moments.

“If you’re a 35 year old woman you’re ‘geriatric’ at the doctor but if you’re a 34 year old man you ‘can’t be mayor’.” @katiehonan.bsky.social on FAQ NYC 😂

Across the city, more than 164,000 New Yorkers flocked to the polls this weekend for the first two days of early voting, according to the Board of Election, a staggering turnout that nearly matches the entire early voting count in 2021.

My closing pitch to voters? “I will only live in this awful place if I rule over it”

attention nyc voters: we’re getting another halloween voting sticker this year!! (yes i framed mine from last year…)

Between this and Sabrina doing a similar thing it is VERY CLEAR which pop stars are aware of The Moment right now and are rising to the occasion and which ones don't give a shit

Call for trans zine recommendations: my Trans Studies students are going to be doing a unit on zines next month, and one activity we're doing is looking at as many physical zines as I can get my hands on. If you know of cool trans zines that ARE PURCHASABLE ON PAPER, please let me know!!!

Hello all! My Advanced Projects in DH class is doing a mapping project on the history of queer nightlife in NYC and are doing an audience survey to help with project design. We would love your feedback if this interests you in any way!! docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

You can *care* about many things and you can only take concrete & sustained action on 1 or 2 things.

UPDATE: Local Law 97 mentioned! Climate change mentioned! Come onnnnn, Fiorello ...

I have a new novelette out today! It's about disabled people caring for one another--even when one of them is a phantom. It's free to read at @reactorsff.bsky.social.

I do some of the largest scale mutual aid work on the planet. You absolutely cannot mutual aid your way out of state capacity. You can reduce some of the short-term harm via mutual aid. But that's a stop-gap measure, and here's why.🧵

Might not have been how I would've liked to see it, but Gotham have clinched a playoff spot! I'll take it!

Well, I think I need this book "Marking Time with Fabric and Thread" #DHmakes shop.folkartmuseum.org/marking-time...

In a new poll, Zohran Mamdani received 52 percent from likely voters, marking the first time that the assemblyman cleared 50 percent in polling.

A lil thing you might not have noticed in the debate last night: Mamdani said he'd take a taxi (the other guys said Uber) if he needed to get a ride. "Ride shares" are anti-labor. When you use an Uber or Lyft in NYC, you're being drive by a scab. Call a union driver with the Curb app. 🚕

If you're trying to learn the birds in a place (either where you live or a travel spot), eBird has a quiz! ebird.org/quiz/ You're also helping rate the quality of images. I'm using this right now to brush up on the birds of Raja Ampat, where I'll be leading a trip in December.

Today is my last day as a librarian and while that feels SO strange, I'm so excited to be starting as an Open Data Analyst for the City of New York. I'll be helping city agencies get their data ready and teaching workshops with groups around the city to help folks know how to use it. 🧵 below

These zines are both free to read/print/share! 1st is @claudiaeberger.bsky.social's, on Appalachian Trail history+use re:gender, race, land rights, datasci (eg how to ID proxy data when needed), & data physicalization/art accompanying their data quilt (scholarslab.lib.virginia.edu/work/footpat...) +

2nd free zine=edited by @claudiaeberger.bsky.social: collects a variety of DHy critical making tutorials by the authors from @dhandlib.bsky.social's special issue (dhandlib.org/making-resea...) that they wrote as companion "here's research-making practice you can try" related to their journal essays

What I don't have in experience, I make up for in integrity. And what Andrew Cuomo lacks in integrity, he could never make up for with experience.
