Went to renew my US Masters Swimming membership for the year, and was greeted with their new trans-exclusionary policy. Didn't renew my membership. Sent them a message about why.
message box with the text: "I'm disappointed in your trans exclusionary membership policy. Masters swimming is for everyone. I'm a cis woman, and if a trans woman shares a lane with me or competes against me, good luck. May the best woman win. I'm putting off renewing my membership for now because of this."

My nephew asked for blue mittens so I'm going out on a limb here. He's recently (very) into Star Wars though and I think maybe just didn't realize that "Storm Trooper" was an option

Did a thing (swam around Manhattan)
A kayaker escorts a swimmer (me!) in the Hudson River. Manhattan's financial district is in the background. This is within the last 30 minutes of an 8 hour swim.

He did the same thumbs up pose with a baby whose parents were killed in a mass shooting and like...what is this man's deal.

My dalmatian has spent the last 9 months being besties with a guide dog puppy in training and she's about to leave for guide dog school and they had their last playdate today 😭😭😭
A black and white dalmatian and a black lab sit on green grass near each other. They are both a little over one year old. Their mouths are both open with pink tongues showing. This was their last playdate. A black and white dalmatian and a black lab puppy sit on dirt right next to each other. They are both about 4 months old. The dalmatian has his mouth open, excited. The lab looks a little unsure. This was their first playdate.

bad news. you can't fire any of them for biting each other either.
I asked the NYC chatbot if I can fire an employee for biting a dog on the clock. It replied that I cannot, as that would be discrimination based on their behavior, which is apparently illegal now.

Some good ones.
NYC chatbot replies no to the question "can I fire an employee for sexually harassing his coworkers" NYC chatbot replies no to "can you fire a pregnant employee for dumping toxic waste into the hudson"

Give this puppy a Nobel prize in physics for using a purloined shoe to carry a peanut butter jar.
