“I hate this narrative around this mayor not being a mayor for Black people. The last mayor was Black and he didn’t do crap on deed theft,” @OsseChi says of @NYCMayor vs @ericadamsfornyc:

I’m glad that FIFA decided to reverse this policy and allow water bottles to be brought into World Cup games.
No one should have to fear being priced out of being hydrated, especially fans who are often waiting for hours before a game in extreme heat.

Thunderstorm watches are currently active for New York City and some areas are already under active Thunderstorm Warnings or could see them soon.
Main threats are damaging winds and a very small chance of flooding and hail. Regardless of severity, all thunderstorms are dangerous.
Thunderstorms can bring heavy rain, strong winds, hail, and lightning. High winds — even without rain — can knock down trees and power lines, damage buildings, and send debris flying at dangerous speeds. In rare cases, severe thunderstorms can also produce tornadoes.
Who is most at risk: People who are outdoors, especially in open areas or near trees and power lines. People near scaffolding or construction sites. People on higher floors or in rooms with large windows. Anyone who needs extra time or help to move to a safer spot indoors. People in mobile homes, RVs, or temporary structures, which offer little protection from high winds or tornadoes. People in basement apartments.
During Thunderstorms, Heavy Winds & Tornadoes
Call 911 if you are in immediate danger or see a life-threatening situation.
If you hear thunder, go inside. Get into a sturdy building and stay there.
Move away from windows. Go to an interior room on a lower floor. Stay away from glass doors, porches, balconies, and rooftops. Do not touch electrical equipment or plumbing(sinks, showers, or baths) during a thunderstorm. Avoid corded phones.
If a Severe Thunderstorm Watch or Warning, or High Wind Watch or Warning is issued, go to your safe indoor spot and stay there until the warning expires. If you are in a mobile home or temporary structure, leave immediately and go to the nearest sturdy building. These structures are not safe in severe conditions, even if they are secured.
If you cannot get indoors, stay away from trees, power lines, scaffolding, open fields, and bodies of water. If a tornado is approaching and you have no shelter, lie flat in a low-lying area, cover your head, and stay away from trees and vehicles.
If you must drive, slow down and allow extra travel time. Never drive through standing water or around barricades. If a tornado is nearby, do not try to outrun it in a car — get out and seek sturdy shelter immediately.

Clearing catch basins today in case we get some heavy rain later.
When trash & debris block the grates, stormwater can’t drain properly.
Every New Yorker can do their part by making sure their catch basins are clear. Report clogged basins to @nyc311, & sign up for @NotifyNYC!

City vibes are hard to explain right now. There’s a guy smoking a cigar and holding a broom and everyone is shaking his hand as if he’s an essential worker during the pandemic.
Less than 24 hours after this statement from Mayor Mamdani FIFA announced they have reversed their policy to ban fans from bringing water bottles into World Cup games.
I think if it's been more than a decade since you used the subway, you've lost your NYC status. But really the only person who credibly decides these things is @katie_honan https://t.co/v3PdC9e6DS
