It's pretty damn impressive how much ground Mayor Mamdani has been able to cover after only nine months in office on a wide range of basic quality-of-life issues in NYC.
I was reading through the numbers this morning, and they're kinda astonishing.

Keine Überraschung, dennoch: Zu 90 Prozent die üblichen Verdächtigen in den üblichen TV-Panels. Keine migrantische Stimme, keine Stimme, die sich dezidiert gegen Rechtsextremisten widersetzten, keine frische Perspektive. Nichts wirft diese Maschine aus ihrem Trott.

It's New Year, so time to look back and forward. These are 10 things I think we need to recognise in 2026. It’s a response to what I think are profoundly damaging mistaken assumptions I’ve heard and read from practitioners, journalists, and analysts in 2025. Warning: very long🧵

the retconning is to support the argument that "trump won in 2024 because of anti-woke." but other than some nebulous "vibe shift" and the prominence of a few podcasters, there is vanishingly little hard evidence for this claim.

As with American culture, Dolly sought to represent the best of what southern culture can be, in defiance of the no-good peckerwood assholes who try to define it at its worst

If Mamdani didn’t go he’d get yelled at for shirking his duties as the mayor of New York. If he went he’d get yelled at for being Muslim and being where he’s not wanted. He can never win in any scenario, that’s how the game is played when you are a bigot
Twenty-five years after the mayor of New York City became the champion of America's grief and resilience at the time of the 9/11 attacks, families of those killed are split on whether the current mayor should attend the annual remembrance. https://cnn.it/4zkKYdc

Universal healthcare is a wildly popular centrist position. It is also a pro business position as it boosts labor market dynamism and removes what for most firms is a non core operation and cost. Asking how it will be paid for in a system as rife w/ inefficiencies as the US sort of misses the point
