Well over half of the 2 million+ New Yorkers who voted in the mayoral race were younger than 55, with a significant share of them being Millennials and Gen Zers — a reversal of typical age-based turnout patterns fueled by enthusiasm around Zohran Mamdani. www.nydailynews.com/2025/11/07/m...

Thank you! We have cylinders so hopefully the gas side of things will be straight forward. The trickiest thing might be finding an induction hob that fits the hole in the bench…

We are planning this too. Do we get an electrician to do it (and coordinate with the gasfitter)?

So weird where there are relatively recent reports from other countries where those fears (wealthy flight) haven’t been realised after significant reforms.

I’m drawn to the implicit discourse in ‘likely also be inundated with climate migrants’. People needing to leave their home countries will be people of colour. ‘Inundated’ feels negative to me. Would prefer we proactively plan to welcome people and the skills and experiences they will contribute.

Well. Let’s see what actions it actually evokes. Remember Rwanda.

But where is the equivalent of the RPF? Nowhere. United nations? NATO? OTHERS? These organisations are truly allowing a genoside and then their member states will jump in and make profit from the spoils of the genoside and the ‘development opportunities’.

tieke.bsky.social
Sue Crengle @tieke.bsky.social · Sep 16
That’s exactly what happened in Rwanda. Except the RPF stopped the genoside. Then the USA and other countries that were/should have been part of peace keeping all came back/got involved and donated money (and made money).
