Reagan was bad.

I think a good thing to remember about this stuff is that most of the guys around Reagan thought FDR was as evil as I think Reagan is, but they still worked to sell Reagan to the public as the true inheritor of FDR's legacy rather than a repudiation of it.
The presidency once served as a reminder of our common humanity. Ronald Reagan described its purpose as building "a nation composed of good and decent people."

Following a disgusting, Islamophobic rant by CM Vickie Paladino that included her calling for “the expulsion of Muslims” en masse, we issue a call for the Council’s Committee on Standards & Ethics to investigate and fast track the process for censure by the full Council

How does outright racism not get you thrown out of the council? Paladino has been doing this for years. Chuck her ass out
A million Muslims live in New York City. We belong here, as does every other New Yorker.

This is vile Islamophobia from the Councilwoman and it has no place in our city.

More andecdata but the QBL is routinely packed on sundays
Very clear from riding the subways the last few weekends that the MTA is not providing enough weekend service. The 1 train in particular has been extremely crowded. This is frustrating because it's been like this during November/December for years now.

The casuals are right. The end of NBA games take too long. Spurs-Thunder was a classic, right up until the final took 9.8 seconds of game time took 12 minutes (without even one review).
Not only did Major League Baseball shorten games with its wide-ranging rule changes, but it did so by eliminating many of the sport’s boring moments.

The NBA should do the same and keep the main thing the main thing, writes @ekoreen.bsky.social.

He's also responsible for raising all the money that paid for bringing Hollingsworth v. Perry & even more importantly Bostic v. Schaefer, which created the circuit split that forced SCOTUS to take on Obergefell v. Hodges. The role he played in American marriage equality cannot be overstated.
The cultural impact of Rob Reiner cannot be understated. Legend isn't big enough a word. It goes to 11. You can't handle the truth. As you wish. I'll have what she's having. I'm your number one fan. You guys wanna see a dead body? The very idea of a bucket list. The West Wing.

All from his movies.

the only reason the Kirk shooting was not a resignation-worthy humilation for Kash is that Robinson's father and partner turned him in.
Well, fuck.

I’m starting to suspect that our ability to catch spree killers who leave the scene is extremely dependent on a functioning FBI…which we 100% do not have right now.

Elon's little serfs are quite literally begging journalists to come back because every publicly available source of data shows people have fled the platform and young people won't use it.

They are literally begging regular people to come back. Don't do it! It is a website by and for actual Nazis!

Today, I spoke with Kilmar Abrego Garcia and his wife, Jennifer. In April, when I met with him in El Salvador, Trump said he would never set foot in the U.S. again.

This case has never been about one man alone; if the govt can violate the constitutional rights of one, all our rights are threatened.

She walked to her neighbor’s house after getting alerts that ICE was nearby. She stood across the street and asked an officer if they were ICE.
