One of my favorite things about NYC is that the entire fleet of NYC ferries was named by 2nd graders. I think about this every time my run takes me past the docks. Anyway, there are people who went to work this morning aboard The Tooth Ferry and the Ocean Queen Rockstar.
A new novel by @emilymandel.bsky.social OH HELL YES If you have not yet read "Station Eleven" or "The Glass Hotel" get to your local library, bookstore, bookshop.org or libro.fm. I would read "Station Eleven" first, just because a couple of characters from that book appear in the next one.

Remember to vote today, New Yorkers. Rank your candidates, one through five. The important thing is to fill in all five columns. With anyone except Cuomo, pictured here harassing a much younger woman at a wedding in 2019.

I don't think I've ever felt more like burning it all down than I have while witnessing the elite project to turn Zohran Mamdani and Brad Lander into scary, incompetent monsters while turning an actual incompetent monster, Andrew Cuomo, into a merely complicated fellow who just made an oopsie.
We know what we have to do to save our city from Andrew Cuomo. We're cross endorsing 🤝 @bradlander.bsky.social
