I have some news! I’m thrilled to join @NYC_DOT as Chief of Staff. I’m excited to continue working on transportation for the City of New York and seize this moment to make our streets and public spaces the envy of the world. Let’s get it done.
To be fair, current parenting expectations make have more than 2 kids really hard for a lot of people. Children are an intensive fiscal AND time commitment. I am the 3rd child in my family and wanted 3 kids but I’ve affirmatively stopped at 2.

Hard to think of a more regressive tax policy than “only people with mortgage debt should have to pay property taxes”
“I’m old. I’ve paid my home off,” said Ray Warner, a 72-year-old Akron resident. “Why would I pay property tax?”
Across the country, homeowners are asking the same question and revolting against property taxes at a scale not seen in a half century.

"What do I owe society?", asked the guy in the green.

One thing that nobody really prepares you for in becoming a parent of multiple young children is that there are some days when you have a 2 minute story you want to tell your spouse, but you can never quite get past the 30-45 second mark

Living in NYC is saying “that’s actually cheap” about a price that would upset your family back home.
My aunt once told my the unofficial family motto is “better living through pharmaceuticals,” since my grandpa and dad were both pharmacists. Literally the polar opposite of whatever this….is.

⛈️⛈️⛈️ Strong thunderstorms could move through the city as a cold front crosses NYC. The forecast shows winds picking up around 3 p.m., with the main storm window from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. and possible gusts of 40 to 60 mph that could bring down tree branches. According to the forecast, the highest chance of severe storms is expected in western parts of the city.
Before any storm, it’s always a good idea take the following steps:
Secure loose items on balconies, rooftops, and patios.
Charge your phone and devices.
If you hear thunder, go inside and move away from windows.
Gusty winds are expected to continue Saturday morning, with gusts of 30 to 35 mph and much cooler temperatures.

This has the chance to be sincerely, truly, game changing in nyc, the biggest law change since the 1989 charter
In 12 CDs in NYC, it almost* completely eliminates zoning as long as it’s 20% inclusionary housing
No city council vote necessary, just planning
The new streamlined affordable housing process will begin on January 1, 2027. westsiderag.com/2026/10/14/m…

I keep thinking about this exchange. Blakeman says he's "created wealth" because of the skyrocketing home prices in Nassau County. The idea that young families are priced out just doesn't occur at all

idk this is kinda the most romantic thing that’s ever been said though

I’ll take the compliment.

This afternoon in Marble Hill, a New Yorker was shot by an ICE agent in a residential neighborhood. Early reports indicate agents surrounded him and a 5-year-old child in his car before firing multiple rounds. We believe the child was physically unharmed.
This is an unconscionable and incredibly serious situation. I have called the President; when we speak I will demand that he ends all ICE enforcement actions in our city. I will not stand by while ICE agents terrorize our communities.
Our thoughts are with the injured New Yorker and his family tonight. We are praying for his recovery.
Get ICE out of our neighborhoods. Get ICE out of our hospitals. Get ICE off our streets. Get ICE away from our children.
Abolish ICE.

jesus fucking christ why isn't this a national story? they can cover twitch streamers for months but a congressional candidate getting raped in a politically charged assault barely cracks the local headlines??
Democrat congressional candidate Bernadette Greene-Placentia was hit over the head and raped in Maricopa County while repairing a damaged campaign sign in August.
"I need to let women know that it's okay to talk about it," she told me.
