On this Trans Day of Remembrance, we remember the bright and courageous trans people whose lives were stolen by hatred. Their absence is felt across our city.
We will honor them by building a New York where every trans person can live safely, fully and freely.

So, now Trump is boycotting the fucking G20 summit because of his bullshit 'white genocide' conspiracy?
Well, talk about secondhand embarrassment. Let me just remind you of his last meeting with South Africa's President...

Trump Tried to Tell the President of South Africa About 'White Genocide'
I'm sure the anti-apartheid activist who was arrested several times was receptive to his bullshit arguments.

Trump's horrible policies are screwing Americans over.
Between tariffs, SNAP cuts and the rising cost of living, food deserts continue to expand. Low-income Americans are getting the short end of the sharpened stick.

What's that? They don't want people to see them tearing down the historic East Wing of the White House to put in a tacky ass ballroom?

I am officially married, content, and enjoying the tail end of a short honeymoon in a tiny seaside town.
My spouse and I are sitting cozy by the hotel fire, spoiling the friendly lobby dog with belly rubs and ear scratches, and trying every cocktail we can.
I couldn't be happier!

It almost but not quite goes without saying:
The Trump-Hegseth memory of American history treats the Civil War as having two sides of Americans, both of whom deserve to be honored as heroes. It treats the wars between the Union army and Indian nations entirely differently.

Sickening behavior by this agent. The fact that Mayor Adams has rolled out the red carpet for ICE is a stain on our city.
I was back at 26 Federal Plaza today, where an ICE agent violently threw this bereft woman to the ground in front of her kids. She had not touched him. She did not pose any threat. She had to be taken to the hospital. (🎥: Elias Eliahu)

This is huge: “A drug that provides near-perfect protection against H.I.V. with shots just twice a year will be made available at $40 per patient annually in low- and middle-income countries, offering new hope… making lenacapavir a realistic choice in countries with constrained resources.”

Oh my goodness. This is fantastic news, if it's true!
Sentator Padilla was the one who was bodily shoved to the floor and detained by federal agents for interrupting Christy Noem's press conference to ask a very reasonable question about ICE's abuse of power.
The Vice President got his name wrong when talking about the incident. 'Cause racism.

I finally managed to pick up a part-time job, and I am beyond relieved. The search for work has been seriously brutal, and since I lost a major source of income this year, it's been wicked stressful.
But, just in time for pumpkin spice season and changing leaves - and my wedding - I got work.
