Zohran just went out and fixed the Williamsburg Bridge bike entrance. Just did it. No faffing, no nonsense. Bam. Fixed.

Under international law, this is unambiguously a war of aggression. There is no plausible pretext of self-defense. The objective is transparently to topple the government, install a surrogate of US liking, and to seize Venezuela's natural resource reserves. It exudes contempt for law in all forms.

I’m not even going to publish a copy of Trumps comments about Reiner and his wife. But occasionally he reminds me that he is simply one of the worst, most degenerate individuals who has ever existed in American public life. Hard to think of any more vicious, vile and sociopathic.

You'd think us violating Irish neutrality in an apparent attempt to assassinate Zelensky by forcing his plane to crash would be bigger news.

For the Irish for a start.

The fact that four hostile drones tried to hit Zelenskyy’s plane & it’s barely a blip in the news cycle should terrify everyone. We’ve been dragged so deep into the chaos era that an attempted strike on a world leader doesn’t even break through. When this becomes normal, the world is in real danger.

who creates the lively art and music scenes if the rent is too high? who makes cultural life? who serves you food or washes your dishes? who creates the fancy little restaurants that draw you to urban living? affordable housing is at the heart of what makes city life worthwhile.

Not sure why this one is such a shock to me. It’s unclear from the report whether she’d been ill. If she was I didn’t know it. For me, I think, it’s that Keaton was so alive, exuberant, so crackling with energy even fairly far into old age that it somehow doesn’t seem to fit. So many iconic roles.
