It's truly an abomination: On a normal job you keep paying forever. 40 years!
“Why would I trust a government that mis-sold me a loan when I was a child?” is a very good question.

I love this video, and perhaps it's a useful opportunity to remind people that a podium is what you stand on (pod, Greek, foot) and a lectern is what you stand at, to read (legere, Latin, to read).
A woo woo woo.

Child at the podium: “A woo woo woo.”
Mamdani: That’s how I felt when we came up with this plan. Together, we will expand the idea of what is possible in our city—and what sounds and noises we can make at a press conference.

Context: this speech is from SIR THOMAS MORE, a history written, as near as scholars can tell, in the early 1600s by 6 or 7 people including Dekker, Heywood, Chettle, Shakespeare, and Munday.
It was never performed, because Jacobean England was a police state and it was banned by the censor.

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.
