Last days of VICE coded (derogatory)

this is a fantastic and honest piece that lays out a path for Zohran that, hypothetically, avoids the failures of de Blasio

Best journalistic piece I've read so far on how Zohran should aim to govern the NYPD. The thesis is simple: Don't attempt to appease opposing parties and end up pleasing neither; define a position and stick to it. The piece's careful recounting of de Blasio's record backs this thesis up.

great article from @k80way.bsky.social about de blasio's catastrophic approach to the NYPD and what mamdani will have to deal with if (when) he becomes mayor www.thedriftmag.com/walking-the-...

So much has already been said about how a Mayor Zohran should orient himself towards the NYPD and yet here I am in @thedriftmag.com saying more

This was an awesome experience because people did not band together in an inspiring display of solidarity they mostly made jokes and acted annoying

Ok, @k80way.bsky.social did it. What the hell is going on with Bluestockings???? Only at @hellgatenyc.com hellgatenyc.com/what-is-happ...

If you've been wondering what is going on at Bluestockings, well, @k80way.bsky.social has a lot to tell you: hellgatenyc.com/what-is-happ...

@tiffanycaban.bsky.social arrested outside of 26 Federal Plaza along with dozens of other protesters - including faith leaders and other elected officials - demanding ICE get out of NYC

You’re crazy for this illustration, @k80way.bsky.social hellgatenyc.com/curtis-sliwa...

Noted "RHONY" critic @k80way.bsky.social interviewing Countess Luann de Lesseps? A dream: hellgatenyc.com/the-show-goe...

Two and a half years and $180,000 later, Aaron Alexis thought he did everything right on his way to opening his own licensed weed dispensary—but an abrupt announcement from the Office of Cannabis Management has left him "hopeless" and stranded in limbo.

love this new york times clip. they recently did a story about how sesame street's set has changed over the years, along with our urban politics. IG nytimes

As Trump continues to flood the city with masked ICE agents and inks a bill that's likely going to have devastating consequences for New York, "liberals" are joining rhetorical forces with the president by focusing their ire on Zohran Mamdani.

I asked India Walton what Zohran Mamdani should be thinking about right now, as an upstart DSA-backed mayoral candidate who just won a primary election against the assembled forces of the ultrawealthy and his own party's establishment. She had some advice: hellgatenyc.com/india-walton...

Lost Highway ass

Here are the bars that will be showing the Hell Gate Primary Night Special Live Event. If you wanna add your bar, get in touch. hellgatenyc.com/primary-live...

New York Times readers who dare to wear camouflage are in danger of what, exactly? Going to a party where a DJ plays too much Jersey club? Let’s show some fucking backbone, people!!!!!! Now’s not the time to worry about “being perceived”!!!!!

I tried my hand at a case study of the Park Slope Food Coop as a microcosm of The Way Shit Is right now 🛒

"I'm happy to report I'm just fine. I lost a button. But I'm gonna sleep in my bed tonight, safe, with my family... At that elevator, I was separated from someone named Edgardo... Edgardo is in ICE detention and he's not going to sleep in his bed tonight."

Fucking crazy!

Bad bitch summit over here

Photos: NYPD Arrests Protesters Blocking ICE Vans Transporting Detained Immigrants

Missed this scoop by @maxrn.bsky.social because I was partying in Detroit but this makes me unfathomably pissed… the guy who wants to be mayor of NYC hasn’t paid rent or property taxes in 20 years? LOSER

Ok. Geniuses are never recognized while they’re still alive

Does anyone see what I’m seeing: Montana looks like Stellan Skarsgård

If you go over time, you get blasted with the airhorn. 💥📣 Them’s the rules. A taste of last night’s Dem mayoral forum with @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social, @bradlander.bsky.social, and @scottstringernyc.bsky.social that we put on with @nysfocus.bsky.social.

About to go @k80way.bsky.social mode (taking a bunch of edibles on an Amtrak)

SCOOP: Hell Gate has exclusively obtained two minutes of the former mayoral and presidential candidate Andrew Yang's surprise set at this week's Asian Comedy Fest in New York City. Listen to it here: hellgatenyc.com/andrew-yang-...

I think this is so true.

Dude what the fuck is Dubai chocolate

Spring style-watch: After a few tough years I am pleased to report that dressing well seems to have made a comeback. Thank god and nice work everyone

Why is Brew, a beloved Bed-Stuy bar, the latest hot spot for Black New Yorkers closing its doors? According to the team behind the bar, they're another casualty of one local NYPD precinct's vendetta against the Tompkins Avenue Open Street.

Imagine this being your coolest idea

Sat next to a lady on the train drinking a hibiscus iced tea and the she googled “hibiscus tea.” That’s what this internet shit should be all about

Eric Adams Asked for Photos of Cops Staring at Their Phones, and New Yorkers Delivered "New Yorkers, you see that? Send me a photo and I will be at that station."

One part of NY's 2019 criminal justice reforms that hasn't gotten clawed back yet is a law that says cops can't arrest and lock people up on low-level charges—they have to give them an appearance ticket. The NYPD response, it seems, has been to simply ignore the law. hellgatenyc.com/nypd-unlawfu...

Absolutely evil.

And btw this is not a “in a party photo with Ghislane Maxwell once” associate, these people asked Epstein’s Palm Beach probation officer for special permission to have him over for Thanksgiving dinner in 2008 (after he was jailed for soliciting sex from a minor)

Very telling who agrees with Andrew Cuomo’s vision for NYC enough to throw money at him!

Mohsen Mahdawi is Columbia University's latest sacrifice to the Trump administration.

Nice lil scoop over at @hellgatenyc.com: Cuomo used ChatGPT to write his housing plan, which contains several gibberish sections. The former governor cannot even be bothered to proofread his housing plan or make sure it makes much sense. hellgatenyc.com/andrew-cuomo...

🫣🫨🤨🧐😏🤪😎

Ok ok. Finally deleted Twitter from my phone.. no more voluntarily ingesting bile I’ll get my Housewives shit from Instagram or something
