Friends, we're now 8 points away. To take it from 8 to 0, we all know what we need to do: zohranfornyc.com/volunteer/events

Good morning, NYC. We have some very exciting news to share.

Some of y’all noticed I’ve been uncharacteristically offline. This is why, and I remain on leave for a few weeks to handle a PTSD relapse. CJR was dogged in its pursuit of my story. Because of what I do and who I am, I felt that I had to answer their questions honestly. www.cjr.org/feature-2/we...

So @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social made a “chai time” joke in response to Lander’s “tee time” comment about building housing on golf courses. 🥁 youtube.com/clip/UgkxTil... The only recourse to stop Zohran’s dad jokes is to volunteer, then rank him 1st. Please. His puns can only be regulated in office.

40 years ago on this date, police dropped a bomb on a West Philadelphia neighborhood

I wonder if this production will be expensive with locations difficult to traverse, or if it will be afjordable

I’m losing my mind

Pro tip: the sooner you let someone canvass you for a candidate (answer the volunteer when they buzz / knock / call), the sooner that candidate will stop trying to reach you! Otherwise we’re all marking you as Not Home and someone will be buzzing / knocking / calling again. Be nice though please!

The @nytimes.com mapped donations from every neighborhood across the city in the mayor’s race — what they found was astonishing. Not only do we have the most individual donors in the race, they come from neighborhoods across each of the five boroughs. This movement is citywide.

Bright is right!

End of @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social ‘s speech @ City We Can Afford rally last night, & crowd reaction @brooklynsteel.bsky.social * COME VOLUNTEER! (if I can be a lead, you can do a shift) zohranfornyc.com/volunteer/events * RANK ZOHRAN #1 FOR MAYOR — no other candidate has this grassroots support!

The new The Last of Us is an all-timer, if the rating ends up anything below a 9.0 on IMDb it’s because idiot boys skewed it

“You’ll do nothing if you sit here and talk, like effete college liberals…” this should auto-play as new leftist chats are created

Key factor in book bans etc. is that a lot of parents feel basically accurately embattled by the possibility that other adults will teach their kids to be better than their parents

The union makes us strong. Happy May Day, NYC.

Last night, Eric Adams’ Rent Guidelines Board announced plans to raise the rents on 2+ million tenants yet again. Andrew Cuomo is real estate’s candidate and will do the same. I have been pledging to freeze the rent since day one of this campaign. And together, we will.

I’ve been using social media long enough that I know I shouldn’t be surprised by how many people still respond to “look both ways before crossing the street” with “oh so you want me to get hit by a train then?” but I am

I mean honest to God this is where the Democratic base is at right now and everybody in Washington is trying their absolute damnedest to ignore it

jacobin.com/2025/04/mamd... I was interviewed by this same journalist in 2019 for a piece on Medicare for All but it was over the phone so that’s probably why she didn’t go on and on about how handsome I was, right

First on the ballot, first for the working class, first for mayor… and first in our hearts. @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social

It’s hard to be #NewYorkForever🏀 when you can’t afford New York. Let’s go Knicks.

How can you not want this man for mayor?! youtu.be/vDTemgARXwg?...

Children deserve to inherit a safe, healthy world. On Earth Day, I'm proud to announce our plan to help protect New Yorkers from climate change by investing in our schools. By upgrading infrastructure and facilities, we'll create thousands of union jobs + clean our air.
