At our municipal grocery stores, New Yorkers will get a 30% discount on eggs, milk, chicken, produce and other everyday essentials. In the wealthiest city in the richest country in the world, no one should have to wonder how they’ll afford the food they need to feed themselves or their families.
Mayor Mamdani holds up bananas with a 30% off sticker on them. Shelves of produce and canned goods, all with 30% off stickers on them. New Yorkers clap at the press conference announcing the 30% discount for municipal grocery stores.

They won’t magically start doing so anytime either. The potential harm of allowing devastating, once-common diseases to return far outweighs the theoretical harm of a link between vaccination and autism. In case you missed it: • www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

"If I win... well y'all came at me so now I get to come at you, and you know, primarying people like John Fetterman, I have no problem to do that," he said, according to audio of a Zoom meeting obtained by POLITICO. "Ideally you put one ogre on a pike, and then everyone else gets the message, and all of a sudden starts to sound a lot different," El-Sayed added
later, referencing how he could help propel the progressive moment.

Three panel comic. Panel 1: a seal and a shark are laying in bed, getting hot and heavy. The seal romantically says, “Shark…” Panel 2: with its eyes still closed, the shark replies, “person on a boogie board…” The seal suddenly opens its eyes, looking pissed. Panel 3: the seal exclaims, “what!?” And the embarrassed looking shark says “uh…” The shark has a thought bubble and is imagining a swimsuit-clad balding man with sunblock and goggles holding a boogie board.

She takes a bow-legged crouching stancing and puts her index and middle fingers to her forehead a la Piccolo's Special Beam Cannon. She think to herself "I shall psychically communicate solidarity with her." The other woman notices Alex from across the street and thinks to herself "hey, it's that bitch from the internet I hate."

last night i got something i've been waiting 20 years for
"the proudest pink"
4-panel comic, ink and colored pencil
panel 1: a young closeted iranian trans girl (me) looks at a camcorder her father is holding. she asks, "who's that?" her baba replies, "your *ame.*"
panel 2: closeup on the camcorder screen, showing a woman in hijab. the girl asks, "what's she wearing on her head?" her baba answers, "that's called *hijab.*" the girl says, "wow, so pretty... when do i get one?" her baba laughs.
panel 3: the girl is looking in the mirror, distressed, tears in her eyes. the background is a raw series of blues, almost stripping away at her. her baba's voice continues in the caption: "*baba-joon,* boys don't wear hijab..."
panel 4: the girl is now a grown woman, wearing all pink with a pink satin hijab and a white undercap. she looks immensely happy, with tears of joy in her eyes. the background is a warm pink, almost emanating from her. the caption finishes her baba's dialogue: "... only girls."

Pay the toll
Two panel comic. Panel 1: a knight in armor rides valiantly on the back of a dragon through a mountain valley. Panel 2: the dragon is sitting facing a wall, parked next to some cars in a small, dingy parking lot. The knight is straining slightly to shield his eyes from the sun as he examines a sticker-covered sign displaying the parking payment info. There is another one of these signs behind him that reads “parkTroll” and features a little app logo of a grinning face of a troll.

As *tech*, AI isn't exceptional. It's not exceptionally wicked. It's not exceptionally good. Take away the accompanying, galactic-scale stock-swindle, and we'd call AI's apps "plug-ins" and we'd use them and abuse them in the same way that we've used every other technology: www.normaltech.ai 1/
A carny barker waving his top-hat and selling tickets from a roll; his head has been replaced with the hostile red eye of HAL9000 from Kubrick's '2001: A Space Odyssey.' The background is a magnified, halftoned detail from a US$100 bill.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but it's illegal for landlords to:
- Lock you out or evict you without a court order.
- Shut off your heat, hot water, electricity, or other essential services to force you out of your home.
- Retaliate against you for reporting unsafe conditions or exercising your tenant rights.
- Leave serious health and safety hazards, like mold, unrepaired.
- Discriminate against you because of your race, disability, or other protected characteristics.

A Fox News still with Laura Ingraham trying to scare people about Janeese Lewis George, Washington DC's DSA/WFP Dem candidate for Mayor (the presumptive Mayor, DC is like 96% Dem) with:

"Janeese Lewis George's Far-Left Policy Agenda:"

* End cooperation w/ ICE
* Opposing extending youth curfews
* Free buses for residents in SNAP program
* Expand rent stabilization program
* Create car-free areas in DC
* City-owned grocery stores
* Universal childcare
