I hope he stays in Central Park. He’d be a cool permanent addition

You could reasonably assume that, but it would be hard to prove in court unless someone said it verbatim that him having a husband was uncomfortable for them

Depends if you ride frequently and have a safe place to store a bike then buying your own bike makes sense. If you don’t want that hassle of taking care of a bike and like the e-bike option then it’s worth it.

The cost increase is about a couple of bike rides, it's still very much worth it if you are a frequent user

Reply to comment by QueenOfQuok in Is Joe Lieberman as well-liked as Chris Murphy? by Sir_FartyFartsalot_
Like him or not, you at least know what you get with Chris Murphy. Lieberman cared about himself only, in the guise of bipartisanship. He lost his senate primary to Ned Lamont back in 2006 and democrats were ready to move on from him. Instead of bowing out, he ran as an independent/de-facto republican (since the GOP candidate was trash) that was able to take votes from every side and handicap Lamont.
If you are running on principals, he clearly didn't have any. You should run on what you believe in and that can be respected, but he just ran to win and not relinquish power.

2-3% in these times is rough…but at least you can take solace in helping the Fed with wage inflation 🫤

I actually thought this was fine at first because I was expecting their current salary to be dogshit, and I think rich people shouldnt be the only ones who can afford to be in the state legislature, but I was surprised to see it was already $110,000. I understand that's not a *ton* of money especially if you're living in NYC and have a family, and i'm fine with approving a raise with inflation going up, but $32,000?! I mean, that's a bit excessive.
