This NYPD officer perpetuating nasty stereotypes about Irish Americans.

An illegally parked dodge asshole car with license plate Donegal 7. It's outside a NYPD precinct so all the cars are on the sidewalk

The River Pavilion in Javits Center is probably a great place to watch the sun set. Glass ceiling and all. I like to watch it from Hudson River Park which is close.

Why do ppl take the Bus on NYC? It's not cuz they're rich

Colin Dickey @colindickey.com · 15h

[Me, a poor, on the subway, glowering jealously at all those fat cat, fancy pants rich people on the public bus]

Andrew Cuomo tweet:

@ZohranKMamdani's "plan" provides no relief for working families who take the subway, and unnecessary benefits to wealthy New Yorkers who take the bus and can afford the fare.

I focus on working families, while @ZohranKMamdani the mansion boy focuses on helping the rich.

"Wealthy New Yorkers who take the bus" might be the most astounding seven words any NYC mayoral candidate has ever spoken.

The NY State Police should close down the News Corp building until charges are dropped against AG James

Trump didn't win the Nobel Prize. He did win 34 convictions in NY State, so maybe we can imprison him for that? Tell him it's a prize.

One way of thinking about the Trump administration is that the worst people in American government are pushing out the best people in American government
www.msn.com/en-us/news/u...

Their interview, described in a federal lawsuit filed last week by Mr. Driscoll and two other recently fired senior FBI officials, began with benign questions about the gravest threats to the nation and possible adjustments to the FBI's structure, but then took a swerve: Who had Mr. Driscoll voted for? When did he start supporting President Donald J. Trump? And had he voted for a Democrat in the past five elections? He declined to answer those three, noting to the 29-year-old attorney and former podcaster that the questions were inappropriate and potentially violative of the Hatch Act.

Mr. Ingrassia asked another question that would in the ensuing weeks take on greater significance: Did Mr. Driscoll think the FBI agents who had "stormed" Mar-a-Lago in August 2022 should be held accountable? Mr. Driscoll said no, since they had been executing legal search warrants.

To the American media, he IS the protagonist of human events.

Nicholas Grossman @nicholasgrossman.bsky.social · 18h

The widespread media decision to frame international affairs as "will Donnie get the prize he wants?" is pathetic.

He's not the protagonist of human events. And to the extent he's a significant character in world affairs, whether or not he gets a prize is one of the least important things about it.

Sure but also he and his government engaged in a taxpayer funded lengthy, multi-pronged, deeply corrupt and imo scandalous attempt to threaten and shake down a friendly nation, including by threat of senseless economic warfare, into making our leader feel good about himself by giving him a trinket…

every now and again a commercial artist quietly creates the entire pop historical image of their time by being horny in specific ways. we picture the 1920s in america the way we do not because that's how all men dressed but because j.c. leyendecker wanted to fuck that

I love this also because broken windows theory was just a dumb ass magazine article. I read it in a class and I was shocked it wasn't even like a paper. It was just an article on the Atlantic! And we know about how dumb those can be!

lol, here's some incredible college football content. In the hype video Oregon posted after Penn State, Dan Lanning lectures his team on broken windows theory, but it's pro-breaking windows.

"Each time we get a stop on defense, that's a broken window." www.youtube.com/watch?v=bwSH...

We send minorities to their death in Rikers Island without a trial. But Donald Trump gets convicted 34 times and NY State let's him run free to jail the actual law enforcement. That's a fucking joke. Kathy Hochul should protect NY State and Tish James or she should resign.
