My once in a blue moon sports take only because it’s on the TV at the diner I’m eating at: Olympic medals for curling should have asterisks on them… you cannot be serious putting this in the same games as death-defying events with actual world-class athleticism

It’s weird to know the person you want to officiate your marriage before you know the person you want to marry… guess I got a little under 8 years

The Trump administration has been open about bigotry for some time - including the erasure of our trans community from governmental sites and programs.

We will not let this stand. Our LGBTQIA+ community is the best of us and we will all fight back every day and every way.

Everyone knows the main reason Lindsey is famous and beloved, but let me just add: the two people in Council District 03 whose judgment on both policy and politics I trust most both say her positions on city-level issues and how she navigates local dynamics are why Lindsey's their pick for the seat.

🚨 70 volunteers. 98 shifts.

Our first volunteer event wasn’t just a party, it was the beginning of a people-powered movement to win District 3 and build an affordable NYC for all of us.

The West Side is ready. Let’s get to work.

Spent the afternoon activated against ICE in our community. First, I worked with my friends from Hands Off NYC to activate against @target allowing ICE to round up employees by joining a buy and return action. Then walked with friends to educate locate businesses against ICE

Word on the streets is that on addition to a very rad mayor, NYers in district 3 could also have an awesome city council member? Sounded to good to be true so I checked out the volunteer kickoff for @lindseyboylan.bsky.social last night and can confirm: she's really real y'all.

Honored to have the support of State Senators @juliasalazar.bsky.social & Gustavo Rivera. Julia & Gustavo are two progressive powerhouses fighting for universal healthcare, expanded tenant protections, & a New York that works for all of us.

Lindsey Boylan is a fearless leader who consistently stands up to the powerful and fights for working people. We've fought many battles together and worked hand-in-hand to take down a disgraced former governor. 

I’m proud to support Lindsey's campaign because I know she’ll bring the urgency, integrity, and vision we need in City Council.

I'm so proud to have the support of @repbowman.bsky.social From taking on the establishment to standing up for working people, Jamaal leads with truth and courage.

I'm ready to bring that same urgency and integrity to City Hall. Let’s win this fight together.

One of my favorite dumb dad joke things to do is make silly acronyms for what @socialists.nyc stands for and this was tonight’s effort after canvassing for 11 hours in the freezing cold.

CONGRATULATIONS to my comrade and now Assemblymember, @dianaforqueens.com!!

Thank you, Queens!

Today, Astoria and Long Island City voted to send a socialist immigrant mom to the New York State Assembly. Our movement is headed to Albany. I’m ready to make you proud.

We launched this campaign 78 days ago. And in those 78 days, we have built something truly beautiful together.

It was an honor to be accompanied by my family, friends, and supporters as I pushed my 1-year-old son down Steinway to cast my ballot for our movement. You can do the same until 9pm today!

Lindsey Boylan understands that disability justice must be central to every area of city governance-from housing and transit to public space and community care.

We're proud to support a candidate who sees access, dignity, and autonomy not as afterthoughts, but as core to her vision for a fairer New York.

Honored to earn the endorsement of the 504 Dems and to share their support for my campaign first because far too often, disability justice is treated as optional and as an afterthought.

1 in 4 adults in the U.S. has a disability, and our city must be built for all of us.
