I see why people were doing reintroductions now.
I am an ADHD/Autism self-advocate and researcher. I skeet these things sporadically ADHD/Autism/AuDHD science, local Aotearoa (NZ) politics, my own personal experiences with AuDHD.
I also skeet a lot of shitposts, and reskeet cool art I love.

Seeing the impact of the 4 lane highway on my local community is pretty wild, so many companies, and people are just being told they are being bought out. Some have lived here for generations.

It's brilliant and exciting to see Zohran Mamdani elected.
More leaders like him please, and fewer like Cuomo, Schumer and the rest of the oligarch-pleasing, hope-destroying, election-losing, right-centrist political class.

We need a new generation of leaders who are the voices of democracy, freedom, social justice, & the rule of law.
A new generation that renews the “we” in “we the people.”
Instead of fretting over Zohran Mamdani, the Democratic Party should embrace him as part of its future.

Running a campaign on solid moral values and offering solutions to combat inequality that piss off the rich - wildly popular in spite of rich donors funneling cash to undermine the campaign.

Don't forget that Zohran Mamdani spent his entire campaign standing proudly beside the trans community. He went to trans rights rallies just to show support. He proudly waved trans rights flags without hesitation. He refused to back down in support of trans rights. That makes me happy.

I'm happy that Mamdani won. But I won't let that get in the way of my celebrating Cuomo losing.

Making mental health funding tied to measurable outcomes in a KPI manner doesn't understand that isn't possible generally.
People are complex, short term gains are often fleeting, and will patch people up before the underlying causes undo these gains.

A reminder that hating people interrupting you and also interrupting others isn’t the hypocrisy that most think it is with ADHD.
It’s driven by the same restriction, limited working memory. You don’t like being interrupted because you lose your chain of thought, if you don‘t interrupt, you forget.

All of the worst people you can imagine announcing they will leave the city if Mamdani gets voted in is the most wild guerilla political campaign for Mamdani.
Imagine how much better NYC will be if they leave.
