“What is the worst thing that Andrew Cuomo did when he was the governor?” That’s what @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social asked @bradlander.bsky.social at our joint mayoral forum with @hellgatenyc.com in May. He didn’t miss a beat and ranked “from fifth-worst to first-worst.” Watch the clip:

Can’t claim to have crunched any numbers on this or anything but I really think the Democratic establishment underestimates how disgusted a lot of reliable Dem voters, including those who aren’t big Zohran fans or lefties, are about them going all hands on deck for a piece of shit like Cuomo

Cuomo’s biggest donors are cheering Trump on. These are the MAGA warmongers who would have his ear in City Hall.

The weather is also going to be terrible on Tuesday. Get your ballot in today if you can!

Very useful thread. You’ve got to rank Mamdani and not Cuomo.

1. 🧵 on why pro-Israel voters in the New York City primary should comfortably rank @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social among their choices and not Cuomo, following @bradlander.bsky.social's endorsement.

Sexual harassment. Death & lies. Racism & corruption. Cuts to Medicaid, the MTA, & CUNY. On June 24, we’ll reject Andrew Cuomo.

The mailers I get are so depressing. This one makes me wish I could vote for Crystal Hudson twice. (I can’t vote for her at all, I moved out of her district.)

I’ve had two remarkable ciders since this one. One was the Porter’s Perfection/Golden Russet from Black Diamond. Really nice fruity character and strong, pleasant tartness. My only problem with this one was that I drank it over several days and the aromatics dropped off pretty badly by the end.

chatting with a venezuelan friend last night, he said this picture got posted in his group chat with other south americans with “oooh don’t spoil the plot of this one for the americanos lol”

Thanks for the reminder @janemunday.bsky.social. Every summer, I repost this article DROWNING DOES NOT LOOK LIKE DROWNING. To date, I know of FOUR kids who were saved after someone who'd clicked on the link learnt how to spot actual drowning. Take time to read and pass on. slate.com/technology/2...

You’ve got to think that there’s a risk of backfire here. Millions pouring into the race from the worst people. I can hope, anyway.

Many years later, as he faced the editorial board, Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani was to remember that distant afternoon when his father told him to abolish ICE

A point I heard on In Our Time: this is a problem a lot of people can do something about. Planting local pollen sources, leaving patches of wild ground (not mown grass), and so on. I wouldn’t bother with those mason bee homes they sell, unkempt yard is better and easier.

Reading Bill De Blasio just slam the out of touch and reactionary NYT over and over again on NY Mag is better than espresso in the morning nymag.com/intelligence...

New York cider and perry fans: it appears there will be Oliver’s perry (“Promised Land”) on draft at Owl Farm this Saturday
