third and last day of the first #heatwave of 2025, the hottest in a decade being yesterday with Central Park touching 99F. Streets and parks are unusually empty, hydrants on every street I biked on are micro cooling, bras are staying in the bedroom drawer, A/C the guilty pleasure

Yes weather models may not be able to predict such localized extreme rainfall events. That’s why imo every household should buy a cheap old fashioned #pluviometer to monitor rain as it falls. local weather service + emergency mgm can raise awareness abt risky rain thresholds

it's going to be uphill all the way but let's gooooo, he's the best shot yet at more dignified living in nyc. i'm ready for canvassing this summer and autumn to try to win over the skeptics in south bk and south queens.

Parenti's critique of ABC (anything but class) "leftism." As relevant as ever!

Second day of a new #heatwave in NYC, 98F at noon (feels 116). My clothes dried in 30min outside. Five subway lines are down due to an #MTA power outage. My flatmate turns on the oven to 400F to warm up a savory pastry. I’m waging a small campaign on #systemoverload with her.

Oh summers already are a dreadful alternating of heatwaves, power outages, intense rainfall, subway flood watch… when will the tipping point for the MTA come?

#climatechange summer in #NYC, this time in the key of #wildfire haze from #Canada. the air is thicker, sundown casts orange lights and you can’t quite tell what time of the day it is. 700 active fires and v few are under control. winds will turn but they’ll keep blazing.

Oh to take a nap with the window open to the sound of cicadas and traffic in Bushwick ☺️

Ohh cycling across Jamaica Bay would be a dream come trueeeeee

Also let’s never forget all the things Cuomo called himself to try to appeal.

Z’s campaign is building mountain high hopes in New Yorkers ❤️‍🔥. But it’s important for ppl to understand the success of his mandate will depend on pushing Governor Kathy Hochul to facilitate the #taxtherich and #housethefuture policies for any of his plans to see the light of day!

me with the sniffles today 😒
