I just turned off fourteen separate categories of email notifications and I feel like I walked out of hell after being stuck in a bargain with the devil.

Looking at this peaceful scene you would never guess that at 6 in the morning she managed to conjure up a four foot string from the inside of the couch so she could act on the death wish that all cats and toddlers have by attempting to eat it.

It is WILD to watch Kathy Hochul suddenly defending congestion pricing. WILD.
We are a nation of laws, not ruled by a king.
WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 19 2025
STATEMENT FROM GOVERNOR KATHY HOCHUL ON CONGESTION PRICING
Public transit is the lifeblood of New York City and critical to our economic future — as a New Yorker, like President Trump, knows very well.
Since this first-in-the-nation program took effect last month, congestion has dropped dramatically and commuters are getting to work faster than ever.
Broadway shows are selling out and foot traffic to local businesses is spiking.
School buses are getting kids to class on time, and yellow cab trips increased by 10 percent. Transit ridership is up, drivers are having a better experience, and support for this program is growing every day.
We are a nation of laws, not ruled by a king. The MTA has initiated legal proceedings in the Southern District of New York to preserve this critical program. We'll see you in court.

Sara always finds me the straightest card in the store and makes me dinner and that's our Valentine's Day tradition. Happy straight man atonement day to all who celebrate. We will be watching Yellowjackets.
A photo of a Valentine's Day greeting card that reads "the most beautiful woman ever - mind, body, and soul - and the luckiest husband in the world standing right next to her." The word "husband" is crossed out with sharpie and "lesbian :)" is written above. Below in pink pen reads "happy straight man atonement day to my most precious baby"
