Bwahaha! When I broke my leg & had a plaster cast up to my thigh, the doctor said I must have sweaty feet b/c the plaster was water-damaged. Not sweaty feet, but my Gretchen would lick my toes. I presume she thought she could "fix" my leg!

Mamdani gets it...
Mamdani: Oftentimes when we win elections, we tell people to go home and just trust us. But the message really has to be that we want you to come along with us… That’s something we’ve been looking to share with New Yorkers: We want to not only win with New Yorkers, but also govern with New Yorkers.

Geeez, is having really bad hair a prerequisite for the GOP these days? Stupid, ✔️Nonsensical, ✔️, good grief, I could go on & on!
Mockler: One of the administration's primary arguments was that these boats were an imminent threat to the United States.
Lambert: They are

According to a new study, members of Congressional leadership perform 47% better in stock market trades than their rank-and-file peers, thanks to access to nonpublic information.
Today would be a great day to ban ALL elected officials from trading stock, don't you think?

The last mixtape a bf gave me was awful. Seriously awful. I won't go into specifics (damn, everyone can love the style of music that they want). But if you're making a mix tape/CD for someone, at least take notice what kind of music that person llikes. It was a wakeup call.

I honestly don’t know what’s more concerning. That the president of the United States keeps falling asleep in public or that everyone around him is too scared to wake him up.

My latest reprinted in @truthout.org. "Libraries represent the kind of infrastructure progressive leaders should fortify and defend at all costs, especially in this moment. Instead, libraries in Chicago are being hollowed out, while the police budget remains sacrosanct."
In the Fight Against Fascism, Libraries Should Be Defended — Not Defunded

Data centres are energy hungry but what if we could use their waste heat to heat our homes?
That's exactly what happens in places like Finland: Cities are tapping the vast amounts of waste heat generated by data centres, and feeding it into district-heating networks.

You've got to be f-ng kidding me. The "aesthetic"?

When folks gripe about DEI, remind them who benefited from shutting out dancers like Copeland. That pattern runs through our whole history.

If you’re suspected of trafficking a small amount of drugs with no evidence, we will murder you, but if you’re convicted of trafficking an enormous amount of drugs with copious evidence, we will pardon you. Because we are currently a very stupid country.

When we govern from City Hall with dignity as the cornerstone of our politics, we'll be following in the footsteps of great mayors like @sanders.senate.gov . Grateful to the Senator for stopping by to talk about the work of building a government that delivers for working people.
