The name is Mamdani. And he is the most progressive mayor NYC has ever seen!

🎉 New York City just elected their most progressive Mayor in history!

Congrats to @ZohranKMamdani who won the mayoral elections in NYC, by promising to make the city a more affordable city for the working class.

A strong voice for human & social rights & a politician who listens to its people.

Description from the Kunsthistorisches Museum: “As guardian of places of transition, statues were erected in her honor, often depicting her with a tripartite body, which could multiply her power. This is also how she is portrayed here in the relief: above the lower body with its long, folded garment, the multiple forms are clearly visible: a total of six arms and three (now partially damaged) heads can be discerned.“

This #ReliefWednesday we celebrate Hecate, the goddess of the crossroads and transitions.

This is a votive relief to Hecate and the inscription warns against defacement of the place where the relief was located. Presumably the relief was originally located in a sanctuary to the goddess.

There's still hope in the US! 💖

This. I just cannot wrap my mind around people who have enough money to actually do something meaningful to end (or get us closer to ending) needless human suffering that money can actually alleviate and then fucking choose not to.

But then again, I'm an evil queer witch who is going to hell.

And sometimes you just want a quick easy meal that is full of filling fats.

Sometimes pizza just sounds good.

Why do people on assistance get shamed like this?

Why is suffering a prerequisite for help. Our society needs to move on from this puritanical mindset.

Fed is best.

Yelp is Taking on Crisis Pregnancy Centers—Good 10.27.25

We all know Crisis Pregnancy Centers rely on tricking women seeking abortions, so kudos to Yelp for giving customers a heads up that these groups don’t offer abortions or even referrals!

Of course, this means they've made an enemy of Texas AG Ken Paxton: jessica.substack.com/p/yelp-is-ta...

“We want every person making the move to experience what it means to have a PC that’s not just a tool, but a true partner” no, thank you, my PC is just a tool, and so is my phone, and so is my other tech, and it'll stay this way.

It's incredible how out of touch and out of reality tech bros are
