"Reporter: Do any of you have a favorite animal?
Child: My favorite one is a gold snake that can move. It has gold eyes, and it has a super-duper tail…
Reporter: Mr. Mamdani, the second question for you.
Mamdani: Yes. It’s also the golden snake."
It’s 2026. There is a measles outbreak in the prison for babies
Bovino has worked so hard at being Nazi, I hope for all the effort he gets the full experience.
Who else remembers that in 1995 the entire apparatus of American conservatism, including almost every prominent elected Republican, came to G Gordon Liddy’s defense when he used his radio show to describe how to, and encourage, his audience to kill federal law enforcement. Pepperidge Farm remembers.
The Democratic Socialist's mother, Mira Nair, is also a Hollywood filmmaker. She has one Oscar nomination, stemming from 1988's Salaam Bombay!, which also won the Camera d'Or at Cannes. In a 2025 profile with Nair, THR wrote that her Golden Globe-nominated film Monsoon Wedding is when she "became an indie darling. " Nair's additional credits include The Namesake (2006); The Reluctant Fundamentalist (2013); and Queen of Katwe (2016), among others. The director was previously approached to helm Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, though she has said her son, Mamdani, talked her out of directing the project, telling her that "anyone can direct Harry Potter; only you can direct The Namesake."

Letter from The Wire creator and creator fulfilling his promise to write an apology letter to TN voters
Anyway, I just wanted to let you all know 2 things. #1 I am proud to have supported @aftynbehn.bsky.social with my time and vote and I will do it again. And #2, @audacityofdespair.bsky.social is a man of his word.
Post from The Wire creator, David Simon, offering to write an apology letter to TN voters who participated in the recent election.
Maybe you saw it.
This week is a lot. In my naive attempt to make us less isolated- a few weeks ago, in the midst of an important TN election where @aftynbehn.bsky.social made historic gains on our previously entrenched red voting base-there was an earnest offer made in our support by @audacityofdespair.bsky.social
People who consume right wing media aren't looking for the truth. They want a permission structure for indulging their worst instincts, attitudes, and prejudices.
Bluesky community! This is my official NYC mayor account. I’ll be posting updates on what’s happening at City Hall and how we’re delivering for New Yorkers. It’s great to be here.

Thank you, @aftynbehn.bsky.social . Thank you so much for doing the work. For inspiring us. The South got something to say.

Here we go team. It’s not cringey to stand for stuff. It does, in fact, rule to be in a room with people who believe in compassion and public service.
I early voted and phone banked for Aftyn. Wire fans unite against crazy old corruption! Thanks for the attention. Would love to bring this win home to district 7 tonight.
you know what? good advice.
I am so sorry you don’t get it. We are done with you.
I will never give a dime to anyone above state level again. Change my mind.
I have an ACA plan that’s basically catastrophic now. It costs $453 a month. As happens every single year, my current plan is “no longer available” next year. The new plans are all starting in the high $800s and most are in the $900s monthly. So, include me in the group of newly uninsured.
My dude this is so embarrassing. It’s WILD how these people dodge the obvious. If they wanted to learn a lesson about listening and actually working for their constituents they would. So we just have to assume I guess that they don’t want to do that.
I knew it would take less than a day for a tiktok dj to make something.
Reminder that this is a winning position, and people support it
Far too late for it to do anybody any good, Jesse Helms has died. He has done so on Independence Day, which, since he was born too late to own slaves and in too liberal an age to allow him to outlaw sedition, will forever be his only resemblance to Thomas Jefferson and John Adams. It is rude to speak ill of the dead. Luckily, I did so ahead of time.
Every time someone awful but really old dies, I think of Hendrik Hertzberg's flawless take on Jesse Helms:
"Far too late for it to do anybody any good, Jesse Helms has died."

Don’t count us out in the South! We have some of the most tenacious fighters. Get a plan. Bring a friend. Get out the vote for Aftyn.
This is all so eyerollingly stupid. Dude is cooked. You have plenty of time to find another guy instead of siding with the Pod Save bros on an obvious loser! These people are so unserious and are only interested in the status quo.
It’s all in the hips!
My car radio went out recently so I added some CDs to the mix of my phone shuffle while looking for the solution. And y’all. CDs sounded great. We sacrificed quality for convenience and I get it but still.
