It is actually nuts that even when the NYC political establishment was presented with a broad field of talented candidates w/ many ideas, in a time of generational change & anti-corruption, they STILL chose to line up behind scandal-ridden Andrew Cuomo. It’s cowardice.

Can we talk about UBI again? Because I don't have a single non-societal problem that wouldn't be immediately and permanently solved by UBI.

RFK Jr’s ACIP pick, Martin Kulldorff, said one of the most disturbing images from the pandemic was a toddler crying about having to wear a mask. I see toddlers cry about everything all the time, and I found it far more disturbing to see refrigerator trucks full of body bags outside of the hospitals…

As a web librarian I cannot stress enough how important websites like Te Ara, NZHistory, and the Dictionary of New Zealand Biography are for researchers of all kinds. These sites were built with the idea that they would exist in perpetuity for all New Zealanders to access.

I'm proud I don't have Andrew Cuomo's record of corruption, scandal and disgrace. And the name is M-A-M-D-A-N-I.

Today my partner @jadziadani.bsky.social and I announced that we’re opening a trans-owned and operated cafe in Toronto in fall 2025 and the joyful response has been beyond anything I could have imagined. I’m overwhelmed with gratitude. I think we all just need a little good news right now. 🥺❤️🏳️‍⚧️☕️

This is truly a miraculous escape. I feel for him deeply, however. The survivor's guilt will be a massive burden, especially since his brother was on the flight too.

Well, if Iran wasn't developing nuclear weapons, they have every incentive to do so now.

Five years ago our frontline health professionals were stretched to their limits battling tidal waves of Covid. Five years later, a new wave of Covid is starting. Our health system is more eroded, less valued, and both staff and patients are suffering. What we allow says a lot about what we value.

Don't let these men and their pissing match distract from the fact Republicans are still trying to rip away healthcare and food from actual children.

It's reassuring to finally see this getting media coverage. We still have not received a response from the Minister. www.rnz.co.nz/news/nationa...
