Ice Cream in the Woods WILL return somehow, someday. Maybe on a narrowboat? ;) (Not the originator of my username. But a loving tribute to the one who did.) Here now because of fomo.

For non-Jews/non-NYers: It's crucial to understand that Jews in NYC have always been treated as a uniform political bloc, and Jews who oppose Israel's policy toward Palestinians have always been treated as marginal/dismissable. A public breaking-off of 1/3 of NY Jews from that history is monumental.

It wasn’t, no, but still - at the time - in the realm of possibility and was just interesting to me to wonder

How many are in those wards? ~1000 votes in the mayoral race… Enough to flip it (or not)!

Interesting…

@allusionistshow.bsky.social we’d be happy to pay you small compliments over here if you were more engaged over here… you’re a couple of months behind on even episode notifications :(

Not the WSJ having the only even moderately acceptable push alert here.

NYT and NBC with basic journalism fails here.

Lest We Forget the Horrors: An Unending Catalog of Trump’s Cruelties, Collusions, Corruptions, and Crimes Lest We Forget the Horrors: An Unending Catalog of Trump’s Cruelties, Collusions, Corruptions, and Crimes

We've been keeping track of all of the atrocities Trump has committed since he took office in January. To be clear, this is not humor or satire, but maybe sometime in the future, our relatives will see this, shake their heads, and think, "What a hilarious shitshow of a timeline."

100% agree.

Fenway Health cutting off access to medical treatment for trans youth is shameful and unnecessary. There is no need for this.

Cis folks, please use these numbers below to tell Fenway and the AG what you think about abandoning trans youth.

This is totally unacceptable.

Ten years ago, the UK was number 1 in Europe for LGBTI equality, it is now 22nd in Europe.

It’s dropped to its lowest ever level under this Labour government.

Good morning.

The government is shut down because Trump wants to act like a king and steal from you.

Democrats have no obligation to support a budget that funds the destruction of our democracy - and DOUBLES health premiums to fund a tax cut for billionaires.

I have taken to calling the spike in side effects around my semaglutide (Ozempic/Wegovy) doses β€œglutidings.” It doesn’t make them go away, but it does make me giggle.

Also: when a government acts brutally and lawlessly and immorally, but tells you that pointing those things out incites violence and terrorism, that government and its agents are entitled to no respect or credence.

Trump is polling at 37%. His actions are deeply unpopular. Don’t mistake brazen actions for clout.

This is our country. Push back on everything. πŸ’ͺ

The Press decided Biden was senile when he mixed up the similar sounding names of the Mexican President & the Egyptian President. Trump saying that 90% of Americans died last year is fine though.
