Birds, books, balls (tennis ones) 🏳️‍🌈🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛ Zohran Mamdani was my Assembly rep in Albany and now he is my Mayor and couldn’t be prouder of voting for him every step of the way. Let’s go, we got this

Girl, you keep using that word. All I’m asking is for you to stop. It is not useful discourse and is harmful. As for my opinions about Yashar and Perez, fine disagree with me, but you have no rebuttal. Both careers are clicks and giggles. You don’t get to police my speech.

Ohh shut up and unfollow me. Your statement that Yashar Ali is equivalent to Perez Hilton is and uniformed clearly stupid statement. That’s not ableist that the truth. Your statement is stupid, you should delete it. You don’t get to police my speech.

Love Hoodlum, but this is such weird framing. She was not expected to win. She has not been a great candidate for a few cycles now. And Missouri, no this isn’t some sort of DSA loss. And yes, Wesley Bell is practically a republican. If you want the full story

Hoodlum 🇺🇸@nothoodlum.bsky.social · 15h ago

Representative Wesley Bell of Missouri, a moderate pro-Israel Democrat, fended off a primary challenge from former Congresswoman Cori Bush, a democratic socialist, in a loss for the surging socialist movement.

Seems to me that the only difference between DSA and the establishment Dems is that the DSA works its ass off while establishment Dems rest on their laurels. El-Sayed will win because he did more events, and met more constituents where they are. Full stop, that’s how he did it, with a Dem message

Scroll up for the full story. Trump opened up a world where white cisgendered str8 men feel they can be above the law. See Miller/Tate as well. You are 30% of the US population even less of the Worlds. You are well on your way to being the most hated minority to ever have existed. Please clap

A congressman sent his staffer a box with a puzzle inside. Once she put the puzzle together it revealed a hand-written note inviting her on a date to an Adam Sandler show.

This is absolutely insane disinformation. It could not be more inaccurate. And yet, it also reflects the wider disinformation about this initiative. Let's walk through it: First, an ID isn't involved at any part of the process of buying groceries at these stores. At all.

Tweet from Polymarket: JUST IN: NYC Mayor Mamdani reveals ID will be required at city-owned grocery stores to prevent non-residents from accessing discounted food.

This was so excellent, I think there’s another webinar on Tuesday and I highly recommend. One takeaway, get to know your neighbors vehicles. Seems like a small thing, but helpful for seeing something that is out of place. Also, going to get my local business to designate private areas.

Today I had to go into Manhattan. Walked around and really paid attention. If ICE shows up in big numbers, the city will shut down So I'm attending Hands Off NYC's event, “Know Your Rights & ICE Spotting Training with Hands Off NYC [Virtual]” - sign up now to join me!

The Amazon Health AI ads during the tennis are freaking me out. The lady showing her torso to the app while her husband sleeps and baby is nearby is insane. People are going to die because of this app. Then there’s the guy on the stairs with a broken toe. WTF
