Worth noting they are members of a very strong labor union and that may contribute to a higher-than-average attention to politics

They sounded like they were at least as far left as me and maybe more, it was really encouraging

It’s also both correct and a thing he personally believes, so it’s a win win win

Btw this time I sat down and the bartender came over and I said “I’ll have a (my usual order)” and he said “oh sure I already put that in, just wondering if you wanted any food as well”

Fair point!

And even aside from that! The whole “ritual” of the Jewish Sabbath is “God commanded that the seventh day be a day of rest” which, okay? Pretty inoffensive and Christianity-consistent?

We look forward to seeing Mayor Mamdani maintain and expand the city’s commitment to a more sustainable future.

NYC is home to 43% of NY State's population. Its budget is nearly as big as the state’s, and its forward-looking climate policies — like Local Law 97, to cut building emissions — play a major part in our state's climate action.

It’s refreshing to elect a leader who recognizes climate change is real, that its impact falls disproportionately on vulnerable communities, & that our government needs to take urgent action to protect all of us from extreme weather, pollution, and other environmental dangers.

I believe the issue here is that the way things are done currently is explicitly written into the city charter, so a charter amendment was required

Just to be clear, I love it

For the record their names are Colm and Ruadhan and they are so nice to me, if you also go here, please tip well

Also maybe I remind them of their charismatic winky leprechaun uncles from the old country idk

Look I know this isn’t rocket science, show up regularly and know their names and look them in the eye and tip $3 a drink, but I still marvel at it

they just brought me another “usual” I didn’t order just as I was finishing the first
