There are few things more rewarding than helping a kid to get their robot to work.

Pica has asked me to convey her sincere thanks for everyone who supported her campaign for Mayor. She forgot about it a few days later, but still wanted to have a "concession party" which means I need to comfort her and give her treats? She wasn't even on any ballots, but we are having the party anyway... obviously.

@catsalad

She demands that I get a print and hang it in the living room ... at her eye level.

@catsalad

This is nice but I worry about how it might .... influence #PicaTheCat... this is the kind of media I don't think is ... well healthy for her little fuzzy brain.

@adardis he’s a republican basically

@adardis

why is he like this?

Exclusive | Rep. Ritchie Torres demands investigation of socialist-leaning Park Slope Food Co-op over alleged anti-Israel hate

Bronx Rep. Ritchie Torres is demanding the city and state probe allegations that a popular Brownstone Brooklyn food co-op has become a hotbed of antisemitism and anti-Israel hate.

New York Post (nypost.com)

A battle for the sidewalks of NYC!

I always do “remember to vote” things like this on election days in my neighborhood.

I just want everyone to vote.

People generally cheer me on or ask to help.

The day after? I help pick up litter— but only from candidates I support. (I’m not cleaning up after Cuomo— I heard he didn’t even pay his GOTV workers well: guy I know who works for …whoever… turned the Cuomo people down. $8 an hour is insulting)

@oldladyplays

I think you are correct, but I have no intention of watching him do anything again unless I'm forced to so I will just take your word for it.

@mensrea

Good advice, resin would be too stiff and make it harder to recycle in the end.

YouTube video:

"Six US Presidents Who Have SWORE."*

Listen I'm a schoolteacher, I do not use swear words and they jump out at me more than for most people but it's *odd* that given what else is going on an F-bomb got so much attention.

*I will explain the possibly obscure reference here. For a time there was a genre of videos ... aimed clearly at children about which "minecraft youTubers" had said a *swear word* ... oh no. gasp. shocking.

He spent SO MUCH money.

I have a neat craft idea for all those glossy Cuomo mailers. I think using a bit of resin one could make a fashionable paper mache trash can, they are very thick with high quality color printing so it'd probably even be waterproof.

Dang I should have saved them.

I feel like we might be able to get rid of Ritchie Torres after all. He's my congressman and I have been deeply disappointed.

"The moderate Democrat who Cried SOCIALIST!"

A cautionary tale.

@mick

more like "right behind"

they don't want to be left of anything.

@huntingdon @GottaLaff

I see what you mean but this is like thanking someone for covering their mouth when they cough.

It's just we don't expect it anymore.

And I'm waiting to see if he runs independent.

@GottaLaff

It hasn't been your night for YEARS bub.

@qkslvrwolf @Andres4NY

I talked their ear off about how much it annoys me that everyone calls it the "East River" rather than the "East Side Tidal Estuary" ... OK that bit wasn't a lie but normally I don't bring it up.

(IT'S NOT A RIVER DAMMIT)

@qkslvrwolf @Andres4NY

There were also three obvious Cuomo push polls which I told wild lies on.

@qkslvrwolf @Andres4NY

I always vote, and Cuomo sent me 8 ugly glossy fliers. Called me twice and had three people on the corner littering all over the place with more paper nobody wanted.

And he had a bunch of miserable people doing fliers who clearly didn't care and were being paid $8 an hour to stand in 100 degree heat.

None of the fliers said anything that I cared about at all. Not one.
