In Oslo, four articulated buses trapped themselves in a roundabout yesterday.

"I don't know what I'm most impressed with: That they managed to get into the situation, or that they got out of it."

my big takeaway from the trump/mamdani meeting is that i miss my grandpa, an old new york real estate guy who has personal beef with trump, and i wish i could argue with him about this at thanksgiving next week

We partnered with @pablo.show to investigate Riley Gaines' rise to MAGA stardom. @msjpauly.bsky.social dug up docs that reveal the right-wing funders behind her ascent and spoke to puzzled teammates who wonder what happened to her.

How right-wing superstar Riley Gaines built an anti-trans empire

Mamdani going in there calling Trump sir a couple times and singing the 1-800-588-EMPIRE jingle with him and effortlessly turning him into a committed socialist.
it's so funny to watch the far right White House press pool try to bait Trump to say something nasty about Mamdani and every time he's just like "nah this guy rocks"

They're also responsible for one of the best emails I've ever received, when the college office sent out a plea for sightings of Professor Biscuit while conveniently forgetting to mention that he was a cat...(I won't comment on how often a similar email might have gone out about human Professors...)

great piece about why @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social should stick to his guns re: taking transit and biking as mayor.

but beyond that, in awe of @ndhapple.bsky.social who got a quote from Sid Davidoff about Mayor Lindsay's transportation habits days before he passed nyc.streetsblog.org/2025/11/18/s...

A detail not totally-widely-reported in this piece is that Mastro had been petitioned to do this by two pols who have big roles next year:

* Julie Menin (councilmember who is on track to be Council Speaker)
* Mark Levine (Comptroller-elect and is angling to invest NYC back into Israel bonds)
