Even the rich asshats who moved to Florida during COVID moved back

Even MICHAEL FUCKING BLOOMBERG has said the rich are lying when they pretend they’re going to leave NYC! They’re fucking lying! I have met rich New Yorkers! They’re not going anywhere! You think that sad sack finance fuck is gonna piss off his third trophy wife by making her shop in Texas? Grow up.

Wondering how much rude travel vloggers/trip reviewers factor into this. The ones I follow tend to be good at blurring out other passengers' faces and not getting in their way but there are a lot who definitely aren't.

This is a big deal but most of the coverage is superficial and misinformed. Good thing there is someone who spent a *decade* digging into this (@reveleth.com)! Excellent explainer 👇

The efforts to save PBS & NPR are lovely and I fully support them. I hope they succeed. However, I’m also very angry that we all *already* support them, with our tax dollars, and now people have to give extra because that asshat decided to steal the money and destroy what we’re already paying for.

Same here

A preemptive response to West Coast people that no one asked you.

Between not feeling this earthquake and sleeping through the last one, I've been to California too much.

At one point Christopher Marte had left-NIMBYs from a few groups canvessing for him. Among other things they were arguing against building tall skyscrapers, an already funny talking point in Lower Manhattan made hysterical by them doing it mere blocks from 1 World Trade Center.

a thing that a lot of people who are not deeply involved in local housing politics often fail to understand is just how unhinged and deranged most NIMBYs are

Your attention:
CPB winds down January 2025
Your local NPR & PBS stations survive with your contributions.
If "Tiny Desk" and "Finding Your Roots" and "PBS Newshour" are important to you, They Need Your Money Now.
Don't be wringing your hands about what's lost when you have the chance to save it.

I do not care that you are not “surprised.” Please. You have no idea how tiresome it is when you post that something horrible, fascist, authoritarian is “not surprising.” Nothing is “surprising” anymore. But a lot of it is horrible and frightening. Let’s deal with it together.

Post a random picture or everything goes bad in August?

The Twins noticed the Marlins aren't doing a firesale and said "well someone has to do one."

I'm choosing to believe the thief was organizing a Highlander larp that ended up getting way more involved than they thought it would.

Man who shut down the largest collective effort by America to help the most vulnerable people in the world, condemning millions to death, suggests that his businesses will save them donmoynihan.substack.com/p/the-death-...

These are stunning

Answer the question coward

I thought we had a deficit spending problem that made us cancel all cancer research

Lmao well done

Your daily reminder that this prick wouldn't be in office right now if Kathy Hochul did her goddamn job.

I know I'm a broken record on this, but when it comes to seats, the MTA needs to stop hating riders.

Seats are a vital component of any transit space—and that's not getting into their public space roles.

You don't make spaces safer by making them inhospitable.

Also if you're above 6 feet these are useless. Bring back the damn benches.

Or adopt @katmabu.bsky.social's model and use campaign funds for relief/charity purposes.

If the Democrats lose this messaging war, primary everyone. I want Dems to run who will make calling out pedophiles their ENTIRE platform. We have so much evidence, not the least of which is the President was buddies and business partners with the World's most famous pedophile.

As a NYer, I am always astonished when I am reminded (by almost getting killed) that right on red is accepted in any city anywhere.

This take is so dumb. Said as someone who lives next to Midtown and is thus personally qualified to say this take is so dumb.
