Also as an incredibly queer person who loves my queer kasama, Mikie: being trans is not a mental health issue @mikiesherrill.bsky.social

Labubu is Gen Z’s Funko Pop. So excessive and wasteful.

Today’s citation was issued by the city’s business administrator and health inspectors.

Immediately behind the gates?

Heavily armed guards who yesterday, took pictures of protestors and their cars.

Born to tonk, forced to Tony

Just reminding the deadline — regardless of reason, no voter should miss out :)

Last remarks to @ryanphaygood.bsky.social, probs the actually most popular person in the room.

“Democracy is not a single action. Even if these candidates sound progressive, the accountability comes after Election Day. Hold that gov accountable, bc once in office they are the gatekeeper to change.”

Khalil Gibran Muhammad, our moderator, closes: “trickle down justice has never existed.”

Quoting MLK: “the white backlash is nothing new, it’s the old prejudices that have always been there.”

“There is a way out, we have a choice to make in June.”

It’s over yall. But the call to action doesn’t end.

Tonight is the last day to change your party affiliation.

NJ has closed primaries. We are 1 of 2 state races happening this year.

If you saw this thread, no excuse not to check and update your affiliation: voter.svrs.nj.gov/register/per...

Spiller: echoes Fulop’s comments on city leadership and municipal perspective, says he had the legislative Trenton experience as a labor leader too.

“It’s not just understanding, it’s about trying to fundamentally change the dynamics and systems that prevent good work from happening.”

Bramnick: “Let me address the throngs of republicans in the audience,” he quips to audience laughs.

In all seriousness, we are at a threshold. We have to stand together to show respect and love.

Sweeney: I know how to do sh*t in Trenton, no one else on this stage does. Neglects to mention he was part of the Trenton dynamic.

“What’s going on is not ok, we need to stand up and speak out.”

Sherrill: in the spirit of defiance, I leave you with words of the caged bird sings. This makes the second Maya Angelou quote from Sherrill who was explicitly asked about the well being of Black women in NJ… so…. 😒

“This is unconventional times, we need an unconventional approach”

Baraka: “I agree with Fulop about JC’s renaissance, I just believe that they are second best to Newark.”

Anecdote about ICE kidnapping a Newark student, with the City’s advocacy, he was returned and is now a Newark public school teacher. Lists off ways he believes Newark leads NJ and the country.

Fulop: Jersey City is a renaissance story, we can make NJ transform too. We need a Governor who understands municipal law so we can get NJ’s 500+ municipalities in line.
