if the knicks win for the first time since 1973 we're bringing back subway graffiti and kicking out all the oligarchs investing in unused midtown terrace lofts. times square will revert to its natural roots as a porn emporium

the day the knicks win is the fourth day of the condor. the day the french get connected. the day the taxi gets driven. the untaking of the pelham 123

This entire article is devastating and makes me furious. We have the money, meds, skills, and knowledge to prevent people dying from AIDS. We know how to prevent HIV transmission from mom to baby. Cancelling most of PEPFAR is one of the most immoral decisions of our generation. And deadly.

Meticulous piece by @stephanienolen.bsky.social tracking the human impact of US aid cuts to HIV in Zambia No tracing means contacts aren't tested No health workers mean baby is left untreated, meds aren't delivered, and appointment reminders aren't sent www.nytimes.com/2026/04/25/h...
