I'm very very sad tonight. I just learned that Stephen Biesty passed away in 2024 at 63... He is one of my favorite artist. Rest in peace.

No need to sign. As long as he doesn't veto, the bills become law anyway. His approach is actually more efficient. That's why he gets more done than other Mayors. – at Brooklyn, NY

NEW: Mayor Zohran Mamdani has signed just one bill into law in 10 months since taking office — leaving critics to wonder if the millennial mayor is more interested in social media stardom than his daily government duties. nypost.com/2026/10/22/us-new…

Exclusive | Mamdani has signed 1 law in 10 months — because his 'obsessed' staff is focused on...

Hizzoner, meanwhile, regularly appears in numerous cleverly crafted TikTok videos per day -- prompting insiders to lament about his priorities.

Evidence on the harmful cognitive effects of TikTok, Reels, and other short form video keeps growing. It's not just the content, it's the attention fragmentation and the declining ability to plan for the future. From @juliejargon wsj.com/tech/personal-tech/t…

Teens Who Can’t Put Down TikTok and Instagram Are Losing Their Sense of Time

Instant gratification from short video clips makes it hard for people—particularly kids—to understand how the present affects the future, according to a study.

This summer, we kept the lights on all night, every night, at five soccer fields across New York City.

This was the scene at Calvert Vaux Park in Gravesend, Brooklyn Tuesday night.

On Sunday, I was honored to visit Our Lady Salam, the first Arabic-speaking Lutheran parish on Staten Island. Its congregants hail from as close as Hylan Boulevard to as far as Palestine, Syria, Lebanon, Iraq, Jordan, and Egypt — yet have planted roots in our city. Many carry the weight of war and genocide daily. Our Lady Salam is a parish defined by resilience, and New York City is better for it.

Mamdani doesn't yet know his own reach — his team can't measure the ceiling he's already broken through. One day he'll see how deep it runs, and the shock will be his own — the kind that makes a man stand a little taller.

Last month, we refurbished 10 tennis courts in Crotona Park — the only public tennis courts in the Bronx with lights for night play. We stopped by recently to see how things were going. Thank you to @NYJTL, @usta and @yonex_tennis for helping us deliver high-quality public spaces that New Yorkers deserve.
