A trial involving assault with a loaf of bread is where the Not Proven verdict really comes into its own

Sure the sandwich guy didn't actually hurt that cop, but that was because he was propelling the sandwich by hand, what if he'd had a sub machine gun

GOD what i wouldn't give for a hot aloof wife to run my life. the more aloof the better, frankly

[the NY Post scrambling to make a last-ditch scandal:]

"umm, uhhh, his aloof wife Rama Duwaji secretly ran the campaign"

garbage from the NY Post showing pictures of Rama Duwaji and her husband Zohran Mamdani, caption "How Zohran Mamdani’s aloof wife, Rama Duwaji, quietly steered his campaign from behind the scenes"

can’t tell if my antidepressants aren’t working or if they just weren’t built for this. like, zoloft was introduced in the 90s it barely needed to work then. if you got sad you could just buy a house.

this is such a great encapsulation of why this race feels existential even to people outside NYC. Cuomo as the final boss of everything wrong with the current Democratic Party, Mamdani happily grabbing the third rails everyone’s told are too dangerous to touch (trans people, Muslims, socialism)

The Space Pope @popecrocodylus.bsky.social · 15h

It's uncanny how Cuomo has been laser-focused at appealing to the absolute worst qualities in people - their insularity, their tribalism, and now their fear. A campaign monumental in its cynicism, a colossal bet by this man and his billionaire backers that people are basically bad.

This isn't a closing election argument, it's Vidkun Quisling explaining why surrender is better than resistance.

it's me, unnamed critter from bosch's triptych of the temptation of anthony!

me with a blue funnel like hat, with a stick out the top holding a red ball on a string. I have on a red capelet and am carrying a letter with calligraphy and a seal in my crooked beak. I've got a badge with a symbol on it

Happy #Halloween!
A wonderful 2nd century AD Roman mosaic found near Antioch, Turkey showing a skeleton, cup of wine in hand, reclining on the floor of a dining room in a house reminding guests to enjoy life: ‘ευφρόσυνος’

Detail of a black mosaic with a white skull, the boney arm of the skeleton raised, and a few ribs.

Mosaic with black background, reclining skeleton with cup of wine in hand with two loaves of bread and an amphora upright in a stand.

I'm the king of kings
I'm not the king of kings
but I'm the wreckage of a king
but really I'm not actually a king
but I am...

Shattered visage in the desert by the stone legs
wrinkles its lip at you.
See my works, ye mighty, and despair!

Here's a good Halloween story, recently I heard my wife say "goddamn the tits on this vampire lady" and sure enough when I walked into the living room Ingrid Pitt was on TV

i’m continually struck by the joy zohran has brought to this election and the absolute venom with which it’s been met.

Zohran Kwame Mamdani @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social · 4d

For New Yorkers who work the night shift, it can be nearly impossible to participate in political life of our city.

So tonight we’re bringing this campaign to them — starting with taxi drivers waiting at LaGuardia.

Zohran with his hand on his chest leaning into the passenger side window of a taxi, talking with the driver.

Zohran extending his hand to shake hands with a taxi driver through the window.

An airport worker showing Zohran something on his phone, both are smiling.

My current theory, because this was right next to some car parks, is that this is to do with a parking ticket but honestly, could be someone offering their ass? Seems like a fair price?

Philip Larkin’s this be the verse mangled into Ozymandias, the text reads

They Oz you up, your mandyias.
They may not mean to, but they do.
They give you vast and trunkless legs
A sunken shattered visage too.
But they were Ozzed up in their turn
By Mandyias upon the sand
Who half the time had wrinkled lips And half in sneering cold command.
Oz hands on mandyias to man.
Like mighty works atop a shelf Look on them early as you can
Ye mighty and despair yourself

my ex and i played a game called Ratfinder when we lived in New York. if we were out and about and one person spotted a rat before the other, they got a point, and whoever had the most points when one of us died would be the winner. she was a good 60 rats ahead when we split up
