Worth remembering that Oysters McNazi understood the rural healthcare issue so poorly he blamed big pharma for closing rural hospitals and not the GOP

Use the Western Concourse (or the exit concourse or old waiting area on the other side of 8th Av) & wait for the train to go on the boards.

I’ve had the idea for a couple years now that so much of our current political derangement is downstream of the semi-reversal of white flight & well, yep.

I was in town last week for americanafest & traffic was terrible. Took 20 min to get from the Gulch (I remember the Station Inn being surrounded by empty lots & decaying warehouses) to East Nashville. Almost seems like a light rail system & densifying would've helped or something 🤷

I believe that all people should be free to live and work where they want to, irrespective of legal and cultural borders. This includes people who I personally do not want to hang out with.

I totally forgot about that crash out It’s bleakly funny that, just like how British colonists kept making new Americas from first principles, outerboro neighborhoods keep making new outerboro New Yorkers (until they too move to Nassau)

We straight up changed vets when ours gave us “special dispensation” from annual shots for our dog with stage 1 kidney disease. I asked him if getting lepto was worse for our guy’s failing kidneys than the vaccine (it is, given that one is a disease & other what prevents it).

Our vet gave us "special dispensation" for the rabies, lepto & bordetella shots for our 14-year-old dog with early kidney disease was scheduled to get without telling us. Our current vet said, "yes, all of those diseases are worse than the vaccines & the vaccines are safe"

Right? Why would a right-leaning voter (let alone a Republican) be enticed to vote for a Democratic one who frequently votes with the other side... when the Republican candidate is right there?

I think it’s a good lesson regardless of the lean of the messenger: when someone tells you what you want to hear but it doesn’t jibe with their past actions that should give one pause. I’d argue it’s the same reason why Newsom is going to, or at least should, face-plant in ‘28.

Everything about the platner campaign was dishonest, shitty, and stupid. The people who were making excuses for him are dumb. There was nothing there! He sucks shit! You got duped by a zero-effort con man

Feels like both could be true: Schumer/DSCC was clearing the (already receptive) field for Mills who didn’t particularly want to run.

& Espaillat took donations from ICE vendors so 🤷. I begrudgingly voted for DAC, like marked the rest of my ballot & sat for a beat in the booth on that line, because of his anti-black/Haitian racism over the weekend. Can't condone that shit.

The vaguely chauvinistic move to rename upper Manhattan to Quisqueya Heights didn’t play well with non-Dominicans. Beating Rangel in 2014 (in fairness, I voted for AE then entirely from working with Rangel’s office when I was at the CBC) got treated as “we’re in charge now, black people are done”
