Word on the streets is that on addition to a very rad mayor, NYers in district 3 could also have an awesome city council member? Sounded to good to be true so I checked out the volunteer kickoff for @lindseyboylan.bsky.social last night and can confirm: she's really real y'all.
I know modern comedies mine influencer persona for a lot of bits that are cliche by now but have we seen a sitcom shit poster?

THIS IS NOT A DRILL

YOU CAN GET EVERY DISCWORLD TOME ON EBOOK FOR LESS THAN THE COST OF A SUBWAY FOOTLONG COMBO.

USUALLY GETTING EVERY SINGLE BOOK LEGALLY IS LIKE 400+

NOT.

Today @lataco.bsky.social launched a fundraiser to help me start their investigative news desk. We're hoping to raise $25k to help pay for lab tests, analyze ICE data that the Daily Memo's been compiling + work with more freelancers. Been dreaming of this for years!
