famed bellwether of decency Frank Carone. The person who Vito Lopez scurried into the bathroom to call, seconds after Vito got my lawyer’s email about Vito sexually harassing the whole office.

Sorry about your student loan debt, we really only fund genocides.

[Harassment-Free New York @harassment_free]

🧵5 yrs ago, we released a survivor-centered set of policy recs to protect workers from, & victims of, harassment & discrimination. 1 of those recs:
ban automatic financial penalties in NDA. Tonight, the bill passed the @NYSA_Majority & is on its way to @GovKathyHochul's desk.

Commissioner & Chief ALJ Rehman joined @NYC_DOI Commissioner Strauber, @CrimJusticeNYC Director Logan, and Law Dep't Senior Counsel Rita Pasarell on this Law and Justice Panel to mentor future city employees interested in careers related to justice, law, mediation, and policy.

NEW: more than 75 State Senate staffers have signed cards to form a union. They have retained counsel, and sent this letter to @AndreaSCousins ⬇️

Legislative staff are notoriously underpaid for the massive amount of work they do.

Just completed the soul-crushing exercise of charting what my net worth would have been at this age had I not gone to law school. Until this student loan crisis is fixed, I can’t recommend in good conscience that anyone go to law school if they’re financing it with student loans.

A casual Friday Gowanus update from me: a developer started driving piles into a Brownfield site in Gowanus last week without warning, making the neighborhood reek of coal tar and potentially damaging EPA equipment.

YOU GUYS. My colleague had a random fawn wander into their yard and after 48 hours of random visits, it's best friends with their dog, Molly.

[Dr Donna Kean @donnaeilidhkean]

I train these clever creatures to save victims trapped in collapsed buildings after earthquakes. We kit them out with a rat backpack, and train them to trigger a switch when they find a victim & come back for a tasty treat 🐀

@danielleiat Ok tbh I liked this bc at first I thought it said YOU were wearing it

[RitaBeth @ritabeth]

@GovKathyHochul’s team also invited me and the others within @harassment_free to the ASA bill signing, as they had for the passing of our top workers’ protection bill earlier this year.

A tremendous change from C**mo, who ignored us for years.

TY Governor Hochul and team!!

[Asher Lovy @HareianiBlog]

Compare to @GovKathyHochul. The day the ASA was signed she scheduled the signing for the next day because she recognized that this was an important piece of legislation that couldn't wait to be sighed into law. Given the SOL issue every day matters.

@upsidedownAFC I mean we don’t TRULY know

#BREAKING The #Oklahoma governor just signed a *total* abortion ban with a Texas-style enforcement mechanism. It goes into effect immediately making Oklahoma the first state to totally outlaw abortion since #RoeVWade in 1973. What this means 🧵

(The NP didn't want to give her Paxlovid for COVID because she *might* get pregnant, even though she made no mention of wanting to get pregnant).
