I realise I'm just a freak, but living in a multicultural city is the best thing of all time, it's just the best possible human experience and i can not understand why anyone on earth would be like "weve got to destroy this"

For all the handwringing about "transplants" & their "disrespect" of nyc's culture, the #1 cohort of people who hate demographic change and diversity are the NYers who haven't left the six blocks they grew up in

Just another murder by car in San Diego. The woman just drove off leaving the child to die. A city that prioritizes cars over people is selfish and evil.

It’s time to admit that ‘Mamma Mia’ is just a bunch of ABBA songs separated by an episode of Maury.

“So this Cheers spinoff- what are you thinking?” “Well you know Frasier?” “Yeah.” “What if there were two Frasiers” “Thats why they pay you the big bucks.”

so yeah, actually

Eyes on the prize, Kirsten.

ban cars

Seen in Minneapolis this morning

US consumers to pay 10% tax because mad king wants to invade an ally for no reason he can even articulate.

Drunk driver gets 24 years to life in prison for killing 4 people at July 4 barbecue in NYC park apnews.com/article/july...

This is partly because an entire generation of Americans in the 90s and 00s were told by media and political elites that a bunch of things would never happen that then started happening after 2015

BRAWL ON COP ISLAND

I too want to give creative control to the man we sent to outer space and then started to contemplate the meaningless of life and just wants to die

TABK members were out yesterday trimming trees along the Bedford Ave protected bike lane! Citizen Pruners can legally help keep our trees in good shape :) The people care about this bike lane!! @nyc-dot.bsky.social @nycgovparks.org @nyc.streetsblog.org @chiosse.bsky.social @mayor.nyc.gov

The deck is stacked in about 10 different ways to give extra power and money to rural areas, but it's never enough. Right wing propaganda continues to tell them they are out upon victims powerless against the mighty cities.

Not now Jodie.

why do these New York mag Look Book pieces always seem to have jump scares

City residents take nonstop abuse about how dangerous cities are and how cities aren't "real America" while rural Americans cry fakes tears into their beers about their lack of political power, which is currently at an apex as Republicans have diluted the power of cities where most people live.

what are we, as a society, doing here

Oh, it's sarcastic! I get it now.

I just want him back.

There was a time in the lives of every person around my age in which Robert Wadlow was one of the, like, ten most famous people in our consciousness. It was Ronald McDonald, the president, Wadlow, the fat twins on the minibikes, and that dude with the super long fingernails. bsky.app/profile/cjze...

very brave of bradley cooper to make a movie about a stand up comic who never tells a joke

...swear to god this is an Onion article. "One of my first dates with Lindsay involved her helping me find a new pair of dress shoes at Macy’s. Can’t do that on Amazon." only in New Jersey.

so glad that podcasts, one of the art forms most accessible to unknown creators, is now mostly recognized as a playground for celebrities

I don't walk to work but I do most of my errands and shopping on foot, and this is absolutely true for me.

Matt Shaw really beginning to doubt his "Jews will not replace us" poster.

spending 2 hours in a dark theater watching a great movie and then having it still swirling in your head as you walk out into New York City at night is just an A+++ experience, can’t get enough of it

When NIMBYs say that California is full and their cities can’t accommodate more housing, they are saying that queer people trying to get out of red states are on their own.

Conner4Real will return in Avengers: Doomsday.

I’d say that is true statement, but I think the author and I would disagree over the danger of cars.

I was raised Quaker but am agnostic at best. Still, it is time for Christians who are not monsters to reclaim their churches.

brooklyn is literally the closest thing to a utopia that the human race has produced.

I love all these quotes from turn of the twentieth century children who would rather work in a factory than go to school.

its always cars.

Great observation here. Vehicles are legitimate weapons of self defense if you’re a right wing protester but if you’re a liberal trying to drive away from trouble they’re deadly weapons you’ve used in an act of terrorism.

It always goes back to cars.

DOT canceled many projects involving bike lanes, traffic calming, sidewalk extension, etc. this year because they are "car-hostile". The feds have said they will not fund projects that take space from or reduces the speed of cars.

damn, declan shalvey possibly donating 400 dollars to the human goblin glinner would be nasty work. i suppose its none of my business other than the fact that i support trans people and glinner's entire existence is to do the exact opposite so donating a single cent to him would be disgusting imo.

Please do not fall for this fucking scam.

Left NIMBYs are fucking bonkers.

interesting! here's a video i took yesterday of federal agents ramming community members with their car

Bill Simmons must be thrilled.

I keep coming back to the fact that one of the weirder facets of of ableism, transphobia, &c. is acting like members of marginalized communities can't also and independently be assholes.

For those wondering what Mamdani's quote, "For too long, those fluent in the good grammar of civility have deployed decorum to mask agendas of cruelty," was in reference to...
