First look at Electoral Calculus UK in a while. I knew the Tories were going to get kneecapped, but I didn't realize that they could lose their spot as HM Opposition to the Liberal Democrats.

NYC congestion pricing was supposed to go into effect today. Let's see what Governor Kathy Hochul -- who intervened to prevent the policy leaving a multi-billion dollar hole in the MTA's budget and canceling service improvements and needed station upgrades -- is up to. Oh. Oh no.

Screen grab from a video on the governor's own Twitter account showing her smiling and wearing an MTA Pride T-shirt (rainbow heart design with the MTA logo inside) at a Pride event. The text of the tweet is "Happy Pride, New York!" followed by a rainbow flag and the trans flag.

“She's trolling New York City. The gall to wear an MTA shirt on today of all days. Just complete contempt for New Yorkers,” transit advocate and The War On Cars podcast co-host Doug Gordon said.

So what, exactly, did Bash and Tapper do as moderators for the #PresidentialDebate that couldn't have been done by a moderately competent chatbot?

Hochul makes me wish that my elementary schoolteachers on Long Island had been right when they said that Buffalo was a myth.

Is getting rid of the headphone jack on cell phones so you can't charge and use the headphone simultaneously the worst phone design decision of all time or is it the worst phone design decision of all time?

Interesting line from Norman Mailer's "The Siege of Chicago" "The Kennedys had seemed magical because they were a little better than they should've been, and so gave promise of making America a little better than it ought to be."
