In the words of Nelson Mandela: it always seems impossible until it’s done.

My friends, it is done. And you are the ones who did it.

I am honored to be your Democratic nominee for the Mayor of New York City.

“Massive numbers of students are going to emerge from university with degrees, and into the workforce, who are essentially illiterate…Both in the literal sense and in the sense of being historically illiterate and having no knowledge of their own culture, much less anyone else’s.”

I think every designer should write a love letter to a font at least once in their lifetime.

This is mine: A 150-year-old font you have likely never heard of, and one you probably saw earlier today.

We’re at city hall this morning to release a letter signed by 60+ rabbis & Jewish clergy calling on our mayor & governor to make New York City & State a sanctuary for ALL New Yorkers — no matter where someone came from or how long they’ve been here. Read the letter: drive.google.com/file/d/1w1mH...

Every single stupid conversation I’ve had with a scientist about anticipatory obedience and historical comparisons over the last week has had me thinking about how scientists’ political incompetence is one of the major arguments for a liberal arts education

Besides being cruel, anticipatory obedience doesn’t work www.chemistryworld.com/opinion/scie...
