A millennial male mayor of New York? He's supposed to be standing up to the real estate lobby, not out here having opinions about Real Estate deep cuts.
In 1999, all rock bands were required to have a guy whose whole job was just making record-scratch noises. You would showcase this guy's talent on an interlude track called, like, "Battlestar Scralatchtica."

One of the best albums of the year came out today. It's called "Kiss from the Balcony" and it's the new album from the Oakland, California-based musician Madeline Kenney.
I asked you to go to the Coldplay concert You said you never heard of them How cool is that??
The Jane's Addiction situation is depressing and bleak. On the bright side, it probably reduces the chances of another terrible Jane's Addiction reunion album.
Superman but his alter ego is László Tóth and nobody can tell whether he’s pro or anti Zionist
Good afternoon. Over at @Pitchfork, I reviewed the new album by Smut, an excellent Chicago band that dares to ask, "What if a shoegaze band got really into early-2000s pop-punk?" pitchfork.com/reviews/albums…

Hello. Over at @Inc, I profiled the founders of Brooklyn's new video store, two movie-loving millennials who believe that DVDs and Blu-rays are headed for a vinyl-style resurgence and are betting big with a brick-and-mortar store in Williamsburg. inc.com/zach-schonfeld…

Every day reporters ask "Eric Adams, are you running for reelection?" and he says something like "NYC, greatest city in the world! Unless the moon counts as a city, but I've only been there once, and that was in 1991, when I received a holy vision from an ostrich!"

I believe in elections, you should vote for whom ever you like. I am not qualified to tell anyone who to vote for, but.. in this case???? If you're Jewish and you vote for Zohran Mamdani for mayor... You are insane.
According to pre-election polls, Mamdani ran 2nd among Jewish voters. I bet that among young Jews, he'll be shown to have come in first. The arrogance and insularity of the "we" here is remarkable
One of the aspects of the British experience with Jeremy Corbyn that is already being repeated here: people with zero (or worse) regard for Jewish life and Jewish safety scolding actual Jews about how wrong and stupid we are about Jewish life and Jewish safety.
