First volunteer shift for the 2024 election cycle and damn I miss being a staffer! Volunteer shifts just scratch some special part of my brain the way nothing else does

seems like he’s ~too emotional~ to be president

[Emily Favreau @emilyfavreau]

She’s mastered the face of simultaneous pity and disgust and every woman knows that is *the* most important combo.

Maybe I’m naive, but I really do think there’s a lot of power in a ticket made up of pleasant happy people who don’t seem furious at huge numbers of Americans simply for existing,

[NY Public Library @nypl]

SO BASICALLY PUBLIC LIBRARIES ARE JUST 0.4% OF THE NEW YORK CITY BUDGET, BUT THE MAYOR IS TRYING TO CUT THE LIBRARY'S BUDGET WAY BACK. I’M TALKING $58.3 MILLION! LIBRARIES ARE ALREADY CLOSED ON SUNDAYS BECAUSE OF PREVIOUS CUTS AND MOST BRANCHES WILL BE OPEN FOR JUST FIVE DAYS A WEEK IF THESE CUTS GO THROUGH!! WE ONLY HAVE UNTIL THE END OF JUNE TO TELL @NYCMAYOR #NOCUTSTOLIBRARIES AND SAVE THE LIBRARY.

Today the MTA fare went up to $2.90.

This is the end result of several months ago, during state budget negotiations, when the Governor aggressively fought against raising new taxes on the rich.

You will now pay more to live in NY so that billionaires don't have to.

A friend is coming over Sunday just to quietly crochet together on my couch and honestly if anyone had told me this is what my late 20s would entail I would have been psyched 😍🧶
