Today, I signed an executive order establishing the first-ever Mayor’s Office of LGBTQIA+ Affairs and appointing the brilliant Taylor Brown as Director.

Queer New Yorkers deserve to be not just protected, but celebrated in this city. Together, we will fight for their right to live a life of dignity, safety, and unabashed pride.

Montana halts permitting on all weekend rallies at Capitol, thwarts upcoming ‘No Kings’ event Organizers of the upcoming “No Kings” rally in Helena say that a new state rule banning permits for weekend rallies on the Capitol grounds violates their First Amendment rights.

Looks like we need to boycott montana or help them sue the republicans that are taking away rights.

Ossoff: "The WH put out a video depicting this war as a video game. When service members are returning in flag-draped coffins, & even more have lost limbs or suffered brain injuries or are fighting for their lives, this WH treats war like a game. It's a disgrace. And it speaks to a moral rot."

ICE agents reveal daily arrest quotas and surveillance app in rare court testimony Under oath, officers said they were told to make eight arrests a day and given special tech to help choose ‘targets’

When a federal judge (finally) put ICE officers under oath, they admitted that they are given daily detention quotas and rely heavily on a Palantir-supplied AI tool to select targets, without warrants and without enough evidence to obtain one. They simply go into neighborhoods and round people up.

First is Dr. #HowardKahm on women in the military. 10.9% of Korean military are women. In last 5 years there has been a 14% decline in 20 year old population, so female voluntary recruits are more important than ever.

• If there's one thing controversial CBS News editor Bari Weiss has earned praise for it's her hands-on booking of big names for the network. But there's one booking she seems to have blown up: New York mayor Zohran Mamdani, who had been in talks to appear for an interview on CBS News Sunday Morning with Robert Costa.
Mamdani's team, I'm told, has long been averse to appearing on CBS given the coverage his campaign got from Weiss's The Free Press, but her recent social media post reacting with a fire emoji to an Iranian activist's diatribe against Mamdani was the "nail in the coffin" for him appearing on the network, two sources with knowledge told me. "Bari and her people have a clear axe to grind for him," said one former CBS producer. (CBS News did not respond to a request for comment.) And the network's turn away from news and toward opinion is proving to be a broader problem. "It's not just Zohran," the source said. "It's really

lol. CBS had been trying to get Zohran Mamdani for an interview, but Bari Weiss' deranged tweeting caused him to turn it down

A very niche pet peeve: magazines whose guidelines go on and on about all the things they dislike, hate, loathe, and will not accept... But say literally nothing about what they like.

It's like a super-negative first date. 🤨

I usually send them a generic-ish story from my burner pile. 🤷‍♂️

The SAVE America Act is a voter suppression scam. It would take away the rights of working people to make their voices heard at the ballot box.

The Senate must reject this bill.

We have a similar "institution" here in Iceland and they are allowed to officiate at ceremonies. They offer naming ceremonies (similar to christenings), and what they call civil confirmation where the kids learn about being good citizens, marriages and funerals.

I think the point is a religious ceremony suffices without civil ceremony and UK humanists would like to officiate their own similarly. I was just a little surprised because here in the US there’s a range of officiants allowed depending on state. I am more familiar with American humanism.
