Every few months I am reminded that I support @polls.pizza with (a very small) monthly contribution. Money well spent.

Hard to imagine Brad and Curtis in the same breath, but this works. Still very proud to have supported @bradlander.bsky.social in the primary and immensely proud of how he handled defeat and kept the good fight going.

You need to add slide listing the 55 countries (including Puerto Rico!) with longer average life expectancies than the US.

(Tip - I always have an β€œappendix” of slides to answer/go into more detail on questions that are likely to come up in Q&A.)

I don’t trust anything in this poll (and haven’t even seen the actual poll), but 7% of people earning more than $250k said they would leave vs. 9% overall, which totally tracks with what you’re saying.

Marathon Sunday west of Bedford Avenue is a great day to walk the neighborhood and remember how it was before the hordes.

It’s so empty that there is almost no line at Maru!

When was the last time you heard someone refer to Williamsburg as Avenue E?

I don’t understand why people think that a guy who doesn’t live in the city, hasn’t lived in the city in 25 years, actively tried to undermine the city in his three terms as governor, and genuinely seems to hate just about everything about the city would make a bad mayor.

Bushwick Creek? 🀣 they filled that in 130 years ago, but this is what it would have looked like (60 years before that).
