All these takes from the national media about the "meaning" of Mamdani's win are so off the mark. Mamdani didn't win because he adhered to or strayed from the Dem's national platform, he won because _his_ platform directly addressed the needs of NYC voters.

A garbage truck driver on my block with the thickest Brooklyn accent I've ever heard is currently having a very loud conversation with a dog named Jackson. Today is going to be a perfect day.

You know how billionaires end up with severe cognitive deficits as a result of becoming surrounded by yes men who constantly tell them their every idea is genius? What if we made a bot that just does that to everyone. I think that would be a good idea.

Just now, like, right now, realized Collective Soul and Soul Asylum are different bands. Somewhat surprisingly, this has absolutely no impact on my life.

Green Chartreuse and Dr. Pepper (2:3) is an upsettingly good cocktail.
Use flat Dr. Pepper if you can, serve on the rocks well stirred.

it's important this go as viral as the original story for morale purposes if nothing else. despite the image they project these people are NOT unaccountable. consequences CAN be forced. focused anger and outrage MATTERS.
