I appreciate Bad Bunny for bringing the Telemundo Saturday afternoon variety show ethos (dancers, inapt sets, let's-try-this attitude) to global TV.

Itβs official: NY Governor Kathy Hochul has endorsed Zohran Mamdani for NYC mayor.

Miss Rachel continues to have more of a moral backbone than 99% of public figures
While Mr. Mamdani was not a target of the hack, the information about him was included in a database of millions of student applications to Columbia going back decades. The data was shared with The Times by an intermediary who goes by the name CrΓ©mieux on Substack and X and who is an academic and an opponent of affirmative action. The Times agreed to withhold his real name.
From a journalistic ethics standpoint. whoever permitted this should lose their job.

Hi Chicago! Recs for a first-timer, Bluesky?
Pope Leo XIV used his first Sunday address to the faithful to call for peace. βNever again war,β he said to a roar from the crowd in St. Peterβs Square.
Two-thirds of NYers support city-owned grocery stores. Three-fourths support free buses. Nearly 80% support a rent-freeze.
I'm running for mayor to deliver these exact policies.
Our campaign is surging because unlike Andrew Cuomo, we know what working people need and deserve.

Awesome to see Chappell Roan speaking out about health care! We have a ton of thoughts about this. Our research found that musicians have lacked health insurance at about 3 times the rate of the general population.
