When are you bringing back the Bedford Ave. bike lane, @vinbarone.bsky.social? It’s become terrifyingly unsafe…the double parking is worse than ever, drivers speed past you if you keep to the side, and they try to run you off the road if you try to take the lane. Somebody’s going to die.
I just wrote a @socialists.nyc letter: Tell Schumer and Gillibrand: Keep ICE Out of New York City Streets. Write one here: actionnetwork.org/letters/tell...
Tell Your Congressmember: Keep ICE Out of New York City Streets
We need our New York Senators — Chuck Schumer and Kristen Gillibrand — to commit to voting NO on ICE funding.

If all you're willing to do is say "We're cooked" on a social media site, maybe it is all over. If you're willing to struggle alongside your friends and neighbors for democracy, then we've got a chance.
Mamdani made one of his haters become his waiter at the table of his success.
This is exactly what we need. This is it. "New York City Council member Chi Ossé, a close ally of Zohran Mamdani, is privately discussing a run against House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.)"
Scoop: Mamdani ally weighs challenging Hakeem Jeffries
Just talking about a potential campaign could drive a further wedge between Mamdani — the democratic socialist in line to be New York's next mayor — and Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.)

Mr. RFK Jr, The vaccine doctors took my baby and injected him with 80 liquid vaccines like a horse. Now he's too puft. Please help!
what this is, above all else, is the biggest green light we’ve ever seen for Dem primary challenges the Dem base is deeply, deeply angry at the party for not doing more to oppose Trump and the door is wide open for anyone who is serious about doing more on that front

New Yorkers! Eric Adams is trying to kill RCV - the very system which enabled a leftist, progressive coalition to win, which 73% of New Yorkers voted for in 2019. Testimony on this change is due TODAY. Here's a script you can use (you can copy/paste from the alt text) www.nyc.gov/site/charter...
![Hello,
As a New Yorker who supports true democracy and fair elections, I urge you to REJECT ERIC ADAMS’ PROPOSAL to switch New York City to a “jungle primary.” This change, which the mayor is clearly trying to force through without public consent, will diminish the voices of Black and Brown New Yorkers, depress youth turnout in our elections, and is a transparent power-grab by our embattled Mayor. New York City cannot afford to upend its election system simply because Eric Adams is desperate. Please respect the will of the people and leave our primaries as they are.
Thank you,
[Your name]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:7nyt6cyhxcvp4cxcplogg5bg/bafkreif6nyy5rgs76t52tnqywdjrkudmtarhr23j5y4nzp74mwqclco66u)
Cuomo has zero excuse for mispronouncing Mamdani's name. That's a bullshit right wing racist tactic we've seen from the worst Republicans in the country. Don't rank Cuomo. Don't put him ANYWHERE on your ballot.
Elizabeth Cronise McLaughlin@ecmclaughlin.bsky.social · last yr.Cuomo keeps mispronouncing Mamdani’s name and Mamdani keeps correcting him LOL.
1. Rank Zohran somewhere. Fifth is fine. Anywhere you like. 2.Don’t rank Cuomo. That’s it.
I'm imagining ICE doing to NYC what it's doing to LA — and the people of NYC responding the way people are in LA — and it all happening under Mayor Cuomo. He'll side with ICE, DHS and, of course, the NYPD. This man, who hates the city and doesn't live here, can not become mayor. Don't rank him.
As a Brooklyn Democrat, I reject this endorsement and will not be ranking either Cuomo or Adams, both of whom are unfit to serve.

chasing bigotries is just a total political dead end. okay, today’s it is trans people. tomorrow it is black people in positions of influence. then it’s immigrants and refugees and so on and so forth.
Nice job @disneyplushelp.bsky.social stopping the Hulu Oscar’s feed before the end.
The Ukrainian government has a list of places where you can donate to the war effort here. I personally just donated $100: war.ukraine.ua/donate/ Slava Ukraini.

cannot overstate the degree to which i am negatively polarized against nimbys. like, if you go to a public meeting to speak against lower cost housing i think the city should eminent domain your house and your house specifically
Erica C. Barnett@ericacbarnett.bsky.social · 2y agoThe first several speakers at this morning's comprehensive plan meeting have been longtime homeowners in Seattle's wealthy Madrona neighborhood, arguing that a two-block "neighborhood center" where some apartments will be allowed, saying it will destroy their neighborhood.

To our trans friends having to see those ads: I am so so sorry. Just an absolute nightmare experience trying to enjoy a baseball game and having to see that garbage. They’ll look back in 50 years at those ads as mind-bogglingly cruel.
southpaw@nycsouthpaw.bsky.social · 2y agoTrump decided to saturate the world series broadcast ads with his most vile anti-trans bigotry and an added dash of clearly manipulated video. Every analyst who said this race was about economic vibes or whatever should have to eat a bowl of vegemite.
Already canceled my Post subscription. Tonight I am canceling all my Amazon subscriptions.
I unsubscribed from the post months ago, but I really wish I could do it again.
New York voters: remember that it's yes on ballot question 1 and no on everything else.
Joshua J. Friedman@joshuajfriedman.com · 2y ago“These proposals would be tantamount to mayoral control over the City Council,” NY City Council Speaker Adrienne Adams told Gothamist about ballot questions 2 through 6. “Some of them are just ridiculous,” said Rep. Jerry Nadler. “This mayor is clearly not getting reelected.”
