New York operates on a kind of magical realism that makes things like this not only possible but commonplace

A statement from the family of Alex Pretti, obtained by CNN:
"We are heartbroken but also very angry.
Alex was a kindhearted soul who cared deeply for his family and friends and also the American veterans whom he cared for as an ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA hospital. Alex wanted to make a difference in this world. Unfortunately he will not be with us to see his impact. I do not throw around the hero term lightly. However his last thought and act was to protect a woman.
The sickening lies told about our son by the administration are reprehensible and disgusting. Alex is clearly not holding a gun when attacked by Trump’s murdering and cowardly ICE thugs. He has his phone in his right hand and his empty left hand is raised above his head while trying to protect the woman ICE just pushed down all while being pepper sprayed.
Please get the truth out about our son. He was a good man. Thank you."

My favorite New York trope is Very Hot Pipe. Sometimes there is a very hot pipe in your apartment. That's just how it is! Don't touch it 🙂

New York City is under a drought watch.
Here’s former Mayor Ed Koch in 1980 for the “Keep New York City Wet” campaign — maybe @NYCMayor should replicate it (via @LaGuardiaWagner youtu.be/WG9Bg9VFYE0?si=6kPm…)

I voted for @KamalaHarris without hesitation. When it comes to policy and personal integrity, the contrast could not be clearer, and I hope undecided voters with a history of supporting candidates in both parties join me. bloombg.org/4ecs0cX

They named a new elementary school building in Missouri after the janitor at their school. This rocks so much

Entertained some out of town guests last night. At dinner they told us they refused to take the subway because it was too dangerous. My 9 year old said "What? You mean like if you ride on top?"

Walz gets emotional while talking about IVF and the audience starts chanting his daughter Hope's name.
"I'm not crying, you're crying." 🥺

So in the 24 hours since @KamalaHarris asked @Tim_Walz to join the ticket, her campaign has raised:
🏈 $36 million
🏈 from 450,000 donors
🏈 More than 1/3rd giving for the first time
🧑🏫 the top profession was teachers 😭

- so, wait, back in 2024 did you have any indication that the U.S. was descending into authoritarianism?
- yeah, we'd usually get two or three warnings every week or so
