Be more French.

You ever see a post and know whoever wrote it is on the sex offender registry?

my italian friend saw a sign that said NO PARKING and panicked that it said NO PARMIGIANO. The Italians are tiiiiiiiired.

Mitch McConnell was worth 35 million 2 years ago. Last month he made 2.9 million in stock trades. Mitch McConnell thinks you should not have healthcare/Medicaid. Think about that. Greedy fucking GOP. Fire them all! EAT THE RICH. #ProudBlue #OneV1 www.nasdaq.com/articles/net...

These are the scumbags destroying everything you have so they can be trillionaires.

OK usually I just ignore like, outright lies, but this one really bothers me. Zohran Mamdani's bill "Not On Our Dine" was written to strip nonprofit registration and tax exempt status from people who do business with West Bank settlements and the Israeli army. AKA, to enforce existing tax law.

out of office email: if you can’t handle two days without me then i better come back to a raise

Most of this “press conference” is this lunatic yelling at the media. This guy is so obsessed with his press coverage that he can’t even function.

Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they called social security.    Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.   Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952

I'd like to send a hearty sucka fucka ding dong to Cuomo first and foremost, plus all the Dems who were just calling for him to resign five minutes ago that endorsed him. Can't forget about Clinton, Clyburn, the New York Post and every other red-baiting, islamophobic piss-pants. Go ride a subway.

Nope!

Hats off to high winds.

Lying awake in bed again with troubling thoughts like how the fuck was Rob Schneider in Judge Dredd

“I personally was pretty surprised, actually, at how efficient the government was,” Sahil Lavingia told NPR's Juana Summers.

Voters: can you pay 50 cents more in taxes to pay for vegetables for children and agree not to defraud the elderly on their electrical bills Wall Street Guy: OH LIKE THE KILLING FIELDS?!?! LIKE THE KHMER ROUGE?!?!

Truly incredible how debased the New York Times is - the newsletter tonight is by Jess Bidgood and it's about Mamdani potentially being a "gift to Republicans," in which she tries in two separate paragraphs to draw parallels between Trump's campaigns and Mamdani's. Despicable

There’a a whole class of Zohran take out there right now that is just “I am upset that a foreigner is also handsome and charismatic”

Strange rollout for the New York mayors race with people saying “I’m hearing that the people who make the rent too expensive and the business men that everyone hates are very disappointed in your choice”

If I may be a contrarian here I'd argue that the victory of a democratic socialist is not "like a spiritual Kristallnacht."

kind of funny that americans think that once you become mayor, you can just enact sharia law. like zero understanding of the legislative process. just raise your hand and say "ok it's sharia time now"

crying, screaming, throwing up

“I’m explicitly admitting there is no threat and it’s an absurd notion but because a religious group is delusional about the fake threat 400k of my neighbors are assholes” I thought this was a perfect shitpost but he’s serious

There was no New York Jewish consensus against Zohran Mamdani. According to polls, he ran 2nd among Jewish voters. He became part of the ongoing--and escalating--American Jewish civil war over Israel peterbeinart.substack.com/p/what-zohra...

Viral videos and podcasts did not help a socialist win over a third of Staten Island. Be fucking serious lmao. Thanks to Zohran Mamdani, establishment Dems woke up to a jarring new political reality this morning: If you care about things people will vote for you. www.garbageday.email/p/if-you-re-...

As an Asian Jew living in the NY metro area, I understand why some of my fellow New Yorkers might feel unsafe. That's why, for only $20 a week, I will use my ninja abilities to personally protect you from Zohran Mamdani. You won't see me but I'll be there, defending you from all the intifadas. HMU

NEW: Republicans are giddy to make Zohran Mamdani a new foil But for Democrats, his win will resonate beyond NYC. It was a symbolic victory over the party’s aging old guard - and highlighted energy, communication and cost of living On what Mamdani means: www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

Beloit, WI revitalized its waterfront and chose this way to celebrate it: by bringing to life Georges Seurat's "A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte."

The NYC mayoral election have really made it more clear than ever that a lot of people really WILL just vote for the rapist if he's wearing the right team colors

It is funny that because Mamdani was relatively unknown until a few weeks ago, all the press outlets are using his campaign's photos of him for the most part; and the man has astonishing photo discipline. So basically every time someone sees him, even atop critical coverage, he's smiling hugely.

An Indian-Muslim socialist who is openly pro Palestine is going to be mayor of a city that is bigger than 38 states

"A life of dignity should not be reserved for a fortunate few." — Zohran Mamdani
