Since @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social is so concerned about @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social housing maybe he should address his own property tax bill of just $213 a year thanks to a sweetheart deal he supported when he served in the state Assembly that will last through 2032. nypost.com/2022/01/23/r...

It’s both saddening and infuriating.

This remains one of the most effective (and bleakest) data visualisations I've seen.
It's a good one to point to when people say that Covid is seasonal or - more commonly - 'over'.
Early on, there really was a chance to beat it back, but globally, our politicians - and many of us - chose not to.

Really lovely and insightful 🧵, especially when it comes to "panic mode" and finding the way through in the room.
A few years into my TV writing career, I was struggling! But one simple piece of advice changed the entire trajectory of my career. So I wanted to do a #Scriptsky #Screenwriting thread about that advice and the ways in which CREATIVITY CAN FLOURISH (and also how it wanes).

I just can't support Zohran Mamdani.
New York is a city of tradition. Our values are what make it special, and Zohran would destroy a pillar of NYC culture:
The mayor HAS to suck. Just be a total piece of shit. We're a bad mayor city, baby.
Stop good mayors. Stop Mamdani. Save New York City

I think it's hard for non–New Yorkers to comprehend just how far from a "legitimate issue" this is. There is no social expectation that a person who has money decline to move into a rent-stabilized apartment, never mind move out of one if they get money after they move in.
Literally none. Zero.
