I have as much faith that this new affordable housing will be built in @chrismartenyc.bsky.social, the NIMBY King of Manhattan's district as I did that Atlantic Yards would be finished to code. Can't wait for them to lock up the garden to the public again now that they don't need you anymore.

I seriously do not understand why every statement by my congressman sounds even flatter than a “spineless” satirical quote from @theonion.com. I cannot wait to help primary this man. I don’t care if my rep is speaker or if I canvassed with WFP to get him elected the first time in 2012. Do better.

@cmshahanahanif.bsky.social is probably the nicest politician I’ve ever met and these hateful ads by Maya Kornberg’s Uber/Billionaire proxies make me want to vomit. I’m so tired of Islamophobia being a winning tactic for douchebags for 2/3 of my life. I hope District 39 makes the right choice.

Can a #nytimes reporter get to the Brooklyn MDC before Tuesday night so Diddy can endorse Cuomo too? Now that we’re asking every POS from my childhood what they think about NYC…

At least with Iraq the cynics among us could make bad jokes like “looks like we gotta go deliver some DEMOCRACY!” Or something equally f’ed up. There’s no funny outer lining with attacking Iran. Just pure hate and stupidity. There will be no Team America: World Police to help us laugh through it.

I desperately hope we turn the page this week. However, regardless of what happens, the fact that Andrew Cuomo and the establishment of the Democratic Party had to beg Bill f***ing Clinton for help in a mayoral race will never not be funny to me. Get ‘em Zohran. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/22/n...

Thanks to AI, I now understand that part 3 of Ulysses is just “Stephen hangs out on a beach” Am I allowed in the cool smart people book club now?
