“'Climate and quality of life are not two separate concerns,' Mamdani told The Nation magazine in April. 'They are, in fact, one and the same.'”
What Zohran Mamdani’s Win Means for New York's Climate Politics
The mayor-elect’s approach reflects a view that is going mainstream: To succeed, climate policies may need to lose the label.

People waiting in line to vote is simultaneously inspiring and infuriating.
Great that people are willing to wait an hour or more to cast a vote, but horrible that they have to endure that.

No more Black or trans staffers. No politics of any kind. The cowardice of mainstream media isn't just insulting, it's *boring.* Now TV is just like any other beauty rag. Why not just kill it quickly? Why the slow-motion pretense?
thank you for all the support; the statement from our union is now live here with some more reporting.
now that this is public I can confirm that the majority of today’s layoffs were women of color. there are no longer any Black women working at Teen Vogue.

I was laid off from Teen Vogue this week, alongside multiple other phenomenal team members.
At our Summit, I was asked how it felt to be 1 of 2 Black women left and what that meant for representation. Now, there are no Black women at Teen Vogue and that is incredibly painful to think about.

Remember when we were all like "Well, at least Teen Vogue is consistently taking a stand and educating about systemic power imbalances in an accessible (and honestly surprising) fashion!"?
Yeah, so about that…

I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day.
certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

Let's just lay it out. Epstein was a glorified pimp who used and sold the services of children to the wealthy, the elite, and the powerful. His clients will destroy anything and everything to stay hidden. They will even starve poor people. They have no bottom and no conscience.
