a Jewish guy in Brooklyn once politely asked me, an extremely sweaty post-soccer brown man, if I could go inside his apartment and flip a switch because it was Shabbat. I did it and he offered me a popsicle but I said no thanks. NYC baby

Utterly shameful behavior from Schumer and Jeffries. Colluding with a genocidal war criminal who wants to undermine Biden and elect Trump.

A reporter looked at the 300+ New Yorkers on the steps of the State Capitol and asked me “how did you get this many people to come?”

I told him that this was just the tip of the iceberg. The fight to end tax breaks for genocide isn’t just a moral one, it’s a popular one.

yes I am angry at the individual driver but it feels so futile when there are plenty of policy decisions that could've been made to make this impossible. humans are fallible and it actually shouldn't be this easy to kill someone by mistake.

My uncle was killed Wednesday afternoon when he was hit by a car while riding his bike. My family is devastated. Please consider supporting Families for Safe Streets & I also recommend reading 'There Are No Accidents' by Jessie Singer familiesforsafestreets.org/about

I just want to add, as someone who has worked in a factory before, this is also what regular, non-sweatshop factories can look like. What makes a sweatshop is the low pay, forced labor, who’s working there, long hours, incredibly high requirements and often dangerous conditions.

NYC has a law that forces buildings to add solar when they redo their roof, so my co-op is installing it right now! I am very excited!!

A real-life advertisement for Wes Marshall's new book!

Man, the week of Memorial Day is ROUGH for that family

in my head this is who this is

This is worse than when we paid McKinsey to study garbage containerization instead of like emailing the mayor of Barcelona or whatever

Please just properly tax the wealthy and make public transit free for everyone

inshallah

NO PRIDE IN GENOCIDE: On June 3 Join ACT UP NY and Queer & Trans people of conscience on the first Monday of Pride Month at Hudson River Park at 5PM, to ask Outright International, the leading global LGBTQIA+ rights organization, WHERE IS YOUR OUTRAGE?

It’s not just morally bad, but it’s bad politics. Millions of Americans have felony convictions. Running on “convicted felons are bad” reinforces all manner of punitive nonsense

Of the 467 summonses for jaywalking that the NYPD wrote in 2023, 92% were received by Black or Latino New Yorkers, while “fewer than 6 percent … were issued to people identified as non-Hispanic white.” nyc.streetsblog.org/2024/05/22/on-…

Oh so now it's a crime to send money to girls
