“THE CITY spoke with several dazed and damp-eyed family members throughout the course of the afternoon, trying to figure out news of their loved ones who had appeared in court only to be whisked out of view.” Horrifying.

“Al-Nasasra took cover on the ground, at the back of the ambulance. He tried to hide and to protect himself as much as he could, digging himself into the ground. The body of Mohammed al-Heila, another aid worker killed, was above him.” www.theguardian.com/world/2025/j...

Like nearly 40% of all New Yorkers, I wasn’t born in this country. I moved here at age 7. It’s my home. And I’m proud to be a citizen, which means standing up for our Constitution. Councilmember Paladino might consider reading it.

Watched a doc on Charlotte von Mahlsdorf - a trans woman who survived the Nazis (beat her own Nazi father to death!), survived a brutally homophobic regime in East Germany, and then had to survive skinhead attacks, but never stopped finding and loving other queer people, and creating her own worlds.

Gender affirming care is not illegal in 31 states. This FBI announcement is designed to make it sound like a ban on gender affirming care is the law of the land. It is not. Besides which, surgical procedures are almost never performed on trans people younger than 18.

The FBI is now going after trans people and their healthcare. Today it's gender affirming care, tomorrow abortion. This is the authoritarian playbook on display.

There are 26 days until the Democratic mayoral primary, and the frontrunner in the race, Andrew Cuomo, has yet to hold an actual press conference inviting reporters to question his positions and priorities. This is not normal.

Missed this one in the Trump firehose: the administration has cancelled a contract for Moderna to develop a bird flu vaccine. America will also no longer buy up supplies of vaccines in advance of a pandemic. I joke with a friend that America just wants to kill you but now it’s official.
