No matter how many ways you restate it, you’re still just saying that people react differently to different circumstances, which is both completely obvious and not at all insightful.

Yes, if things were different people would respond differently. Very astute.

If things were different, things would be different, correct.

Because it’s a complete straw man that’s not going to show up at all?

The truck depot was built specifically because it’s one of the easiest revenue-producing activities to tear down. It’s inherently temporary no matter how this ends.

This sub is going to be very quiet when Richardson gets a better deal for Harlem as a result of her initial refusal. This sub was gloating over her “loss,” but it’s clear this fight isn’t over yet.

The important thing is that Hochul got her photo op before the election.

A union rep brought doughnuts. I’m not seeing the issue. People often bring doughnuts when they’re trying to make a good impression.
Fuck the principal, but I don’t see how the union rep bringing doughnuts is mocking or even relevant.

Who would want the job? The only people who would run would be people who don’t need the salary at all. Look at New Hampshire’s legislature (lowest paid in the country). It’s filled with retirees and wealthy people.

Technically, they haven’t done it before. A commission set the increases/cap before. The court case was most about whether the commission had the authority to do so. The court said it didn’t.
The legislature passing the cap by itself is on much firmer legal ground.

What an asshole. His constituents elected him as a Democrat, and now he’s screwing them by making himself less effective by joining the powerless minority.

It happens all over the Borough. The Party appoints them, then forges their signatures for proxy votes. The party leadership ends up controlling more votes than there are people at the meetings. Tracking proxies is extremely difficult, so the party gets away with it year after year.

$20.78 would make sense. That’s $20 plus 3.9% card fee.
