Never Post going out this afternoon. We had said it would be Hans' 2025 Pornhub Data segment, but ... we were wrong – it'll be an archival pull! Our first, as we resurface old segments into the feed to make them easier to find and share. The one going out today is maybe our most *defining* segment.

See it for what it is: the reality of his immense vulnerability to Hochul in protecting NYC from the governor's ability to impose austerity on NYC.
It's up to us to do what Z cannot.
