This doesn't seem like "serious scrutiny" to me. The only flaws in Mamdani's plans this article identifies are a factual error on his website and some "how will you pay for it" talking points.

Interrupting the never-ending parade of horror to share prime cat content: a feral mama gave birth in our yard in April. She's fixed and returned to the colony, and now we're fostering the babies. Two of them already have strong differing opinions on Adorno.

I'm proud I don't have Andrew Cuomo's record of corruption, scandal and disgrace.
And the name is M-A-M-D-A-N-I.

Opposing Andrew Cuomo is a non-negotiable for our membership. In light of today’s news that Jessica Ramos has endorsed Cuomo, our New York City CAP Council immediately voted to unendorse her on our ballots. @uawregion9a.bsky.social

Reminder that Cuomo is and has always been a massive bag of wank. Do not rank him.
Friends don’t let friends rank Eric Adams or Cuomo so find out who you should rank first

It is unbelievable to me people are still so into HP, and can continue to be avowed fans in the face of what a hateful windbag JKR is.
Like, it was obvious to me at a 10 that the writing was bad and painfully derivative.

I hope people connect this to the upcoming HBO series, because there is obviously a connection
Kidlit colleagues, just a reminder that JK Rowling *funded* this challenge over the definition of women at the Supreme Court. Every time you choose to work with her, platform her, take a stance that aligns with her, buy her books, nominate her for more awards, she uses that and funds hate.

Sitting in an airport terminal with no work or grading to do for the first time in recent memory, and now the guilt of the countless emails and texts I've not responded to in the past year is hitting me 🙃

It took me 18 hours after signing up for this thing to realize it's "blue sky" and not "bluesky," like a Slavic surname. Off to a real great start!
