Thing is, you have all kinds of options if you have a car, and few without. Paragon Union Square is one of the major ones we have left; it’s not as comprehensive but it’s not bad.

The two chain stores likely to gain a billion dollar PR bonus for supporting a union, REI and TraderJoe's, still can't see the benefit.

REI soho closing is pretty bad for anyone who loves buying outdoor gear in the five boroughs. I know their c-suite is retrenching and cost cutting but I think folding up their NYC presence entirely is a huge mistake www.bicycleretailer.com/industry-new...

This is true. Once you drive one for a while you start thinking, wait why *do* regular cars have all these tubes and gaskets and whatnot?

i’d say the real killer feature of EVs is basically the lack of real maintenance costs.

The Mario Cuomo Corrections Complex at Rikers (it’s three jails)

TEMU Mark Ruffalo @brianvan.bsky.social · 3h

Among other things, who trusts Andrew Cuomo to build “the right jail”?

Chris Sommerfeldt @c-sommerfeldt.bsky.social · 3h

Andrew Cuomo says he would as mayor seek to keep Rikers Island open and "rebuild it the right way" so that the jail complex becomes "humane" and "efficient."

This would require the City Council to undo its 2019 law mandating that Rikers be replaced with borough-based jails.

This very very very bad. I cannot stress this enough. I said that they crossed the Rubicon with arresting Ras Baraka several months ago. This is very bad and portends more bad things for regular people.

Ignore maintenance and preservation for decades, then throw up your hands when it deteriorates beyond repair, and tear it out and replace it with shoddy paving. Sadly expected.

I'm reminding people that the way Congressional Democrats handle this stuff is miserable, and that winding back the stuff that Republicans do is very very hard so you do not want to be like Jeffries and Schumer and sit there for years at a time feeling smug that Trump's polls are sinking

I don't want to WAFFLES you but one of the key problems of democracy right now is that one party is like "time to re-run the Third Reich!" and the other is like "great! We're gonna hold that against them in the midterms"

Well we also win by not having these things in the first place, by winning elections by motivating a hopeful and not-demoralized voter base, by not running on things like "I wouldn't change much of what Joe Biden did" or "Abolish ICE is beyond-the-pale"

By all means, also expose the brutes
