Meaningful insights from an absurd, petty human being. The Internet's preeminent anti-horse activist. He/Him.

I sure would hate if my taxes went toward good things A truly responsible society only supports funding endless war and human suffering. Should any knowledge of these atrocities intrude on ones blissful ignorance, good citizens must shrug and say, “Whaddaya gonna do? Good things aren’t possible.”

Opinion: Mamdani's idea may sound appealing, but it's NYC taxpayers who will take the hit, subsidizing discounts they may never even use.

We can do this without perpetuating hagiography for Blockbuster, one of the primary guilty parties for destroying the video rental industry. Especially in DC Metro. Remember your history—if you want to rekindle video store nostalgia, make it a Little Free Erol’s.

Someone in DC set up a “little free blockbuster” with DVDs inside instead of books lol

Here’s my 100% sincere offer, @mayor.nyc.gov: if you finally ban the horses, I will quit my job and start a socialist co-op electric carriage tour company in Central Park. Our first carriage will be named “Fiorello Mamdani” in your honor, and we’ll give you and Rama the inaugural ride.

Mayor Mamdani reiterated his support for a ban on carriage horses in Central Park Wednesday — just hours after a horse collapsed and died in the park at W. 72nd St. and West Drive Tuesday evening.

All my talk of banning horses reads as wacky exaggeration, but this is not a joke to me. One-ton work animals don't belong in a dense, loud, modern city. They're insanely powerful and unpredictable, which usually results in killing themselves. Now a kid is dead. This should have stopped years ago.

An 18-year-old tourist from India died in a fall from a horse-drawn carriage in Central Park after the horse bolted.
