    The morning after a bigot set fire to the pride flag outside Little Prince restaurant in SoHo, we raised a new flag. Our community will not be intimidated.

    Hate in SoHo: Last night this person set fire to the pride flag hanging outside Little Prince restaurant, causing the front of the restaurant to go up in flames. Anyone with info on this should call the Crime Stoppers tip line at 800-577-TIPS.  At 11AM we will re-hang the flag.

    Tonight the Drag Story Hour protesters came to my apartment building and gained entry. My super called the cops and two of them were arrested for trespassing. This is pure hate, unmasked. If they think this is going to intimidate us, they’re mistaken. Our resolve is strengthened.

    I knew Fabian Basabe from gay bars in NYC in the early 2000s and am rather shocked to learn he’s a ‘straight’ married Republican lawmaker in Florida who voted for the Don’t Say Gay bills.

    GOP Florida Rep Accused of Sexual Harassment by Two Male Ex-Staffers
    Ex-intern Jacob Cutbirth, 24, claims Basabe “began to physically touch and grope him and to grab at him to try to kiss him” despite repeated demands to stop.

    News Flash: NYC’s public transit from airports is a disgrace. Arrive late to JFK? Cough up at least $80 for an Uber or spend your evening waiting on deserted train platforms. NYC, we can do so much better!

    Reading encourages skills like language and literacy, plus cognitive development and social-emotional growth, too. Thank you to Drag Queen Story Hour for bringing your program to Chelsea!

    The map details plans for expansion that the New York Subway had in 1920. Everything in red was planned to be built in the next twenty-five years (by 1945)! The advent of the automobile brought it to a halt. It makes my heart hurt!

    Not long ago, I would have hated the sight of this.  Now, I see desperately needed housing supply being generated.

    Congratulations to @danielsgoldman on winning the Democratic primary. I’m proud to endorse him & look forward to working with him. Now let’s fill buses with volunteers to swing districts in NY & PA to protect our House/Senate majorities. Reinforcements are coming, @JohnFetterman!
