I’m all for people running for office if they feel called to. But if your campaign fails to take off in the first few weeks and there are other candidates talking about many of the same issues you are, you have to drop out. I’m sorry — but it’s the only way we’re getting anywhere.

Fam, this is a challenging moment. We (as reporters) are trying to balance urgency of news & amplification of resistance narratives with not assisting in putting people in prison. It's tough for everyone right now with how fast videos go viral. There's a lot we are not sharing.

The annual pumpkin display at the entrance of Governor Pritzker’s personal residence on Astor Street. He is the pumpkin king. Illinois produces the most pumpkins, including canned, than any other state in the U.S., twice as many as the next five states combined.

I have zero idea what the solution is. And anyone know knows me knows I’m dealing with a lot of free floating anxiety right now in my own life so this may be my brain misfiring weirdly. But like oh god, I do not want rich weirdos in control of public transportation.

But like, please — can we please not have Peter Thiel or Elon Musk or some other weirdo billionaire bail them out because we all know they won’t do it just because. They’ll do it to own and control the most powerful asset the NYC/Philly area has. What comes next, we don’t know. +

Amy Wilson @amywilson.bsky.social · 15/07/2025

All three systems need trillions of dollars poured in to fix them or the NYC/Philly area is going to be crippled. That money isn’t coming from the Feds any time Trump is in office. It’s probably way too much to put on the backs of taxpayers. So I get how private investors could look good. +

I had kind of an insane thought last night but I just wanted to put it out there. I’m sure we all saw the horrific videos of the MTA yesterday. All weekend, PATH was barely operational. And SEPTA has had their funding cut to the bone. My fear: private investors are going to try to step in. +

I cannot emphasize enough how true & real this is. In almost anywhere on the political spectrum you ID with or major issue, there’s probably a bot/troll operation to encourage your rage and vitriol. And how/where that rage gets directed, esp understandable rage, is what they are out to influence.

If you want to emulate Mamdani the first thing is he's New York. You can't fake that. I know who his parents are, but he comes off just the same as the dry cleaner's son sent to a good school. He was graduated from Bowdoin but he still is who he is. You have that or you don't.
