a guy on one of those e-scooters almost killed my son, who coincidentally, was going to his job at a bike store.

had it not been for his helmet, he could have ended up with severe head trauma, paralyzed or in a coma. a co-worker was also biking along and got him to the hospital. the guy in the e-scooter ran away & disappeared.

in #nyc it’s usually a new generation of yuppies on those e-scooters. they think traffic rules don’t apply to them. never a helmet in sight.

"Mayor Zohran #Mamdani and other city officials announced a sweeping new policy Wednesday imposing a one-year ban on student use of generative #artificialIntelligence in #NewYorkCity #publicSchools from 2-K through 8th grade"

How did we get Mamdani?

People ignored the #DNC, didn't whine #cynicism and #perfectionism and not #vote, and put him there

We can have 100 Mamdanis across the #USA if more Americans follow this lead

🗣 LOUDER FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK!!!

we need more COMMUNITY CENTERS, more PARKS, more PUBLIC SPORTS CENTERS, more PUBLIC LIBRARIES, more PUBLIC MUSEUMS, more free THEATER, more free CONCERTS.

even in #nyc it was hell for my sons to find places to hang with their friends when they were teenagers ―that didn't involve spending money.

none of that can be replaced by tech and, even less, their slopping stalkerware.

woke up today so and angry and sad about this 9/11 #asbestos report, yet couldn’t cry. i most likely developed breast #cancer because i live within the contamination radius.

and it is not just me.

so many of my neighbors developed cancers and other diseases, just like the first responders. yet the government didn't set a penny aside for our health.

everything i have written or said publicly about this American Fascism is true ―and has affected me in more ways than one.
