I’m glad every executive and politician spent several months trembling in fear and presenting tchotchkes and bending over at every possible opportunity, when they could have just been good at their jobs and behaved with integrity like New York’s new mayor just did.

And he cucked him in no time!

No matter how hard people try to convince us having empathy is wrong,

it is right.

No matter how hard people try to convince us that diversity is a weakness,

it is a strength.

No matter how hard people try to convince us that love is limited,

it is unlimited.

America has this uncanny way of always pulling me back in when my faith in its promise is at its lowest.
“In how many other countries could a candidate like that win this election? As I biked home from the beer garden that night, a gushing wave of enthusiasm broke loose in my mind. I wanted to get involved.”

@zohrankmamdani.bsky.social is the first time I've been hopeful since Obama. But they have little in common. My essay in @newlinesmag.bsky.social on my neighbor, fellow millennial/Muslim/Arab whose appeal is much more about his humanity than our shared identities.
