New York's Richest Ask 'how Dare He?' as Mamdani Closes In on City Hall The city's 1% realize their influence is waning: It's hard to be chill and relaxed'

It was just after finishing a set of pelvic floor exercises that a Pilates instructor on the Upper East Side recently brought up one of the least popular men in the neighborhood: New York City mayoral front-runner Zohran Mamdani,. All of a sudden the class, which costs $50 a pop, became something of a political confab. In between sets, some women strategized about helping former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who they see as more palatable, pull off an upset. Others gushed about a recent New York Post cover depicting Gov. Kathy Hochul, who had recently endorsed Mamdani, as a devotee of Mao Zedong.

New York's richest residents can't stop talking about Mamdani, the Democratic nominee. To many of the city's uber-wealthy, his sustained popularity has been a shock. The 33-year-old, self. described Democratic Socialist is the overwhelming favorite to win City Hall next month, on a platform that includes free buses and free child care--programs that, the moneyed are well aware, somebody needs to shell out for. "I hope Mamdani is going to give out free Xanax," said Caroline Leventhal, a lifelong Upper East sider who co-founded 'Mic'd and Medicated," a podcast that dissects the lifestyle of cosmetic surgeries and private ski instructors. "It's hard to be chill and relaxed."

Chuck Schumer should be focused on fighting Donald Trump and protecting healthcare for millions of Americans, not meddling in a Maine primary.

DC's choice has lost to Susan Collins five times in a row. We can't afford a sixth.

Or maybe, just maybe, what was obvious in 2024 was correct: Netanyahu fully backed Trump and would not deal with Biden because Trump would give him a free hand to escalate the starvation, bombing, and do full ethnic cleansing. Which he then did, until Netanyahu embarrassed him by bombing Qatar.

Screenshot from Columbo. He his talking to his dog, which is sitting is the drivers seat of a car. “Okay, I’m gonna put you in charge. You take care of the car. You’re a responsible dog. When I get back, if the car’s okay, I’ll give you another cookie.”

“If the car’s gone,”

“I’ll give you another cookie anyway”

“because I love you.”

Happy Columbo’s Day

Here is some material Bari Weiss published regarding Covid.

So when anyone defends her in any way, what they are saying is that real world victims of medical disinformation don’t matter.

It’s all just a game to these pundits.

The virgin AGI existential risk vs the chad global warming

Textbook “they gave me a bribe” language.

Peak white mediocrity (Bari Weiss) is publishing the same basic article that was published in 1990 about David Dinkins, or in 1983 about Harold Washington, and applauding oneself for being a brave truth teller.

This really highlights how negotiations between Israel and Palestine are negotiations between an occupier and an occupied people.

Look, maybe not *all* ICE and CBP agents are bloodthirsty psychopaths, but there are plenty of stories like this one and the rest of them sure as shit don't seem to mind, so ...

So they resolve the issue when a democrat retakes power and say actually this is bad and you’re not allowed to do it.

Pope Leo calls for news agencies to stand as bulwark against "post-truths," lies and manipulation Pope Leo XIV has encouraged international news agencies to stand firm as a bulwark against the "ancient art of lying" and manipulation.

Pope Leo quotes Hannah Arendt:

“The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the convinced Communist, but people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction and the distinction between true and false no longer exist."

So thankful that dudes without game now have the option of driving all of our energy bills up to come up with devastating lines like it was nice to meet you

I know it’s not the point, but that’s a great collection of logos right there.

It’s also more combustible as well.

Honestly? Good for him.

They’re all on ozempic, aren’t they?

@MrAndyNgo Now that the local and national press have started to cover the Portland ICE area round-the-clock in reaction to the President, Antifa have devised a plan where they are encouraging one another to come in animal costumes. The costumes serve the function of masking the violent extremism to make the direct action appear like a family-friendly gathering on camera, and to whitewash the past ultraviolence. In 2019, Antifa devised a similar plot by giving out free "milkshakes" at a protest. But they couldn't contain their bloodthirst and nearly killed me when they saw me. In 2020, they mobilized a fake "Wall of Moms" where female Antifa supporters and members wore yellow shirts to act as human body shields while violent rioters behind them hurled projectile weapons. photo of three people in inflatable frog costumes

Those are three people in inflatable frog suits.

There aren’t really any American-built, -owned or -operated ships in international trade, are there? This one is just for the love of the game.

Huh: TikTok took down my 8-second video featuring this image of Debbie Brockman — the news producer just detained by Trump’s CBP agents — saying it violates the “joy of TikTok”

sherman, for the love of god!

This is the most accurate depiction of the Midwest to date. Wichita has always felt like the last Midwest city while also being the first plains city.
