Andrew is a true artist who is never not working on a new song. The ones collected here are ear worms with LeonardCohenDavidBermanesque lyrics. AND he produced it. AND he held down two jobs (teacher/writer). AND he is a dad.

It’s chilling to watch the people who have cheerled this famine-genocide for two years finally acknowledge the predictable consequences. They sense how history will record this and they want to whitewash their own role in making it happen.
Media outlets can't pivot to AI to save themselves. It's not a business strategy and it won't work. The only path forward is for journalists to lean into their humanity, to do things AI can't, and to make clear they are writing for people, not algorithms: 404media.co/the-medias-piv…

god there's nothing sadder than someone who died -- and you find the year -- and there were no obituaries, no notices.
Extremely proud of my students Gabby and Gabriel, who won the @nypl James Baldwin Teen Creative Contest and got to meet his nephew Trevor.
indeed, Kathy Wylde told me she tried to calm the nerves of her anxious corporate members on today's call by reminding them only the state can raise taxes. Wylde finds @ZohranKMamdani "smart" & believes the biz world's fears are partly from unfamiliarity: ebx.sh/JSQjCz
Hearing that real estate and business leaders in New York City are convening a 2 pm call to discuss The Zohran Situation
When I was in Jackson Heights on Sunday, a Cuomo canvasser told me he actually supported Zohran, but Cuomo was paying $200 a day and "a guy's gotta get money."
How happy am I that @matthewsedacca is now on staff at @curbed and minoring in Taco Bell Studies at @grubstreet? Talented guy, broad interests, fun colleague.
Chefs have reconfigured, reimagined, and rebranded the Crunchwrap into something of their own — and, in process, helped the hexagonal icon shed its image as a mere fast-food standard. My report on the folks thinking outside the bun for @grubstreet/@NYMag grubstreet.com/article/crunch…
yes -- preliminary vote totals. but they won't start running the ranked-choice rounds until a week later.
Funniest possible time for Zohran's mom to do a screening Q&A
I get that there’s a lifeguard shortage so here’s a modest proposal: post online where there are lifeguards stationed in Rockaway on a daily basis. Full transparency for beachgoers who can then adjust accordingly. @NYCParks
There were impressive Saturday night fireworks to mark the reopening of the beach at Beach 116th Street in the Rockaways. On Sunday, there wasn’t a single lifeguard stationed on that stretch of the “reopened” beach! @NYCParks @JoannAriola32
It’s interesting too that despite a large staff working on housing — even a deputy mayor for housing, Adolfo Carrion — none of those people are quoted in this press release
I will never stop thinking about the boy adept at climbing who made it out of the lower holds. RIP to a writer who taught me what it means to dig for detail. theatlantic.com/magazine/archi…
You: a person who rented an apartment from someone you were *already* friends with. I want to ask about that tenant/landlord relationship. The crushing demand of feeding a cat. The fear they'd come over ... with cookies. Happy to keep you anon. DM me!

Really smart story from @RyanSchwach about a Queens council candidate's apparent use of AI-generated campaign images and the impact AI could have – and already has – on local politics
A Queens city council candidate appears to use AI generated images on his campaign site. Should it matter? And how is the ever growing use of AI making its way into local politics? queenseagle.com/all/2025/6/8/a…

What are things that @adrianeq and I should be doing with or without our perfect three-year-old boy in Berlin this summer?
