Huge story breaking right now in NYC: BK Dems party boss Rodneyse Bichotte-Hermelyn announced that she's subverting the will of Brooklyn's voters (a majority of whom recently voted to change party leadership) by dramatically changing the rules in order to hang onto her position as party boss.

Jeffries is the epitome of the guy bringing a knife to a gun fight. Dems (left, center, indy) really want leaders who will do something and he is Mr. Do-Nothing. Read the room, Hakeem.
Body cameras, lol they’re following themselves with film crew and putting it to fucking Beastie Boys music Body cameras without civilian oversight and control of the footage is a fig leaf
Kings County Clue! Frank Seddio, In the back room, appointing judges!

Once upon a time I had a ‘67 Plymouth Satellite in classic Mopar green. 4-door sedan similar to this one - it was huge, could fit 8 people comfortably. OK, 8 teenagers in the time before seatbelts.
Seen in the wild (Queens): 1965 Plymouth Fury III. Me: "Nice car!" Him: "Thanks. It's been used in a few movies." He was in the process of cleaning/buffing the car, and showed me a "before" photo for comparison. Very impressive job. The thing was glistening.
Not sure about Ronald, but a definite Hamburgler flavour going on here.
Jailbird chic: behold the "convict-stripes" podium outfit for the Australian Olympic team at the 1976 Winter Olympics in Innsbruck – declared the ugliest uniform of the games and *the* hot property souvenir item. (An unmistakable Ronald McDonald flavour here, too.) 🗃️
Eric Adams is eating leprechauns in Wisconsin now.
Obsessed with the fact that Wisconsin residents opposing a data center, with which Eric Adams is somehow involved, used the Hell Gate Table of Success to inform their advocacy. @hellgatenyc.com rules as always. (And this whole story is wild!) hellgatenyc.com/eric-adams-i...

No one has ever done a census of the moon’s population.
The Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) put out a little infographic for International Moon Day. It compares the diameter of Australia to the diameter of the Moon. This always throws me because in my mind, the Moon is actually bigger!
Escorting the nine-year-old to a friend’s birthday pool party, I told him I wasn’t going to swim in part because I’m dressed for work. He told me I could just jump in like Mamdani did. This is what socialism does to our children.
Williamsburg not looking apocalyptic at all.
Early last evening in Chelsea.
This is the upshot of 14 (16?) years of effort by New Kings and many, many others. Starting with Vito, ending here.
it is a brand new day in Brooklyn www.thecityreporter.nyc/2026/07/17/b...
Counterpoint - you spend the next 48 hours obsessively researching this building. Speaking for a friend. Hypothetically.
There is a weird building halfway along your commute. Every time you pass it you look at it and think, "That place looks weird. I wonder what it is? I should find out." By the time you get where you're going you have forgotten about it. Every time Everyday example of antimemetic shielding

A part of me is gonna miss the state fair. I’d never been embarrassed for an architrave before.
