“There was poison in the air, and on the ground, and in the window sills, and in your air conditioners, and covering your pets and your clothes, and it stayed there for months... Everyone knew. Now it’s very clear that the city knew as well.” #NeverForget www.the-independent.com/news/world/a...

It came out 5 years ago so I don't have to worry about spoiling anything, right? One of the best details about #DontLookUp is that in the end, despite escaping the planet and leaving everyone else to be eradicated due to the rich's own hubris, the rich still literally end up getting eaten.

I'm repeatedly dumbfounded by the amount of effort, engineering, and money invested into solving the logistical nightmare of millions of people using their own personal 3,000+ lbs square box to get in, out, and around dense urban centers every day. Could there be another way? #MobilityStartup

On the one hand this feels like pandering when urban cycling infrastructure should be so safe that helmets feel superfluous. On the other hand, I'm elated to see a mayor of a US city pay so much attention to the issue to begin with and treat cycling as a normal mode of transit for everyone.

I'm listening, I'm learning. Safety first, NYC.

More trolls seem to be reacting to factual postings with the thought-free response of "Trump Derangement Syndrome." Like everything with the Trump world, every charge against a perceived opponent is actually an admission.

Nobody disputes that having access to a car in a car-dominated society is good. It gives one access to jobs, healthcare, food, education, social opportunities and more. All we're asking is for people to go one step deeper and ask why access to such basic rights requires buying and operating a car.

I grew up in Jackson Heights in Queens and we still had a car, and our lives got measurably better when we did.

If Andy Beshear doesn’t call for a special election before August 3rd and force Mitch McConnell to prove he can speak in a video, then Andy Beshear becomes the new Merrick Garland. I’m sorry but I make the rules.

Duckworth on Hegseth announcing testosterone screenings for troops: "It sounds like gender affirming care to me, so I'm glad he's come around ... this is just more performative bullshit from the least qualified secretary of defense in our nation's history."

Cyclosporiasis, the parasite causing the current explosive diarrhea outbreak, is at a level 20x higher than its yearly average. This comes just 1 year after the Trump admin removed a cyclospora tracking mandate from the 'Foodborne Disease Active Surveillance Network.'

Stroopwafels were given out to runners as energy boosters. I like to say "Make Lange Eylandt Dutch Again" for the bike infrastructure, but Stroopwafels are good too!

If @nerd4cities.bsky.social wants to write off a beach vacation as a business expense, I highly recommend checking out Suffolk County Transit's 15 bus to Robert Moses. Was brand new and on time, and the irony of taking a bus across Robert Moses Causeway to Robert Moses beach is delicious.

It appears Grok killed the schoolchildren in Iran, in tandem with a US military under Pete Hegseth who DGAF. Remember when Anthropic said 'No' to Hegseth's demand that they allow the DoD to use Claude to kill autonomously, with no human oversight? Check out this timeline:

Quintessential Trump: In 2025, Trump axed the program to combat New World Screwworm, stating that they had "saved" $1.5 million a year. In 2026, the Trump announces a $1 billion emergency program to combat the Screwworm outbreak. $1 billion would have funded the old program for 667 years.

Das ist Russlands wahres Gesicht. Ein gezielter Angriff auf das Kyjiwer Höhlenkloster – 1.000 Jahre alt, für Millionen heilig. Die Goldene Horde hat es geplündert. Die Bolschewiki haben es gesprengt. Russlands Horde zerstört es mit Drohnen. Barbaren hinterlassen ihre Spuren.

Tom Suozzi is always on the list. His primary is right around the corner. I am the only Democrat against him on the ballot. (And let's be honest- I am the only real democrat on the ballot at all.) Please consider donating and/or making a plan to vote for me. votewelch.com

36 House Democrats voted for a bill that would give Linda McMahon more tools to harass colleges, students and states that Trump doesn't like.

Apparently the Mormons recognized the man-o-sphere's game of roping in lonely, misguided young men with short form content and are now blasting ads like this on YouTube Shorts. #gamerecognizegame #LDS
