Post from unnamed user: “Yea, our choices suck, but I'm voting Cuomo without hesitation because I think he's better equipped to fight Donald Trump. And Trump is only endorsing him and having Adams do the same in an effort to harm the candidate he ACTUALLY fears, which is Cuomo. That's my assessment. They want a Mamdani win.”

William Contreras continued: Alright, so maybe I’m a man of few words … plus a few more. Haha. But I wanted to say these things for Brewers fans, because the journey of this team has meant so much. This team, it’s so special. And for the first time since I won a ring, I’m really feeling that feeling again. I’m really looking around our locker room, our ballpark, and it’s that same unidad. It’s funny … I still have a little regret, years later, for being rude to my agent about the trade. “MILWAUKEE?!” Wow. What a wrong way to react. Now, I hope I spend my whole career here — and I hope to be on the first World Series winner in Brewers history. It’ll happen, I bet. It’s like Bob always said: “No one better than you.” Well actually, Bob, probably some are better than me! I’m not the best. None of our group is. But if you’re telling me another team is the best??? Man, I swear. I haven’t seen them. No one better than Milwaukee right now. No one better than US.
William Contreras: And then the last thing I want to speak about is our current season. “You can’t explain it,” people will say. No one was picking us, we started so slow. Yet we did what we did. Three long winning streaks. Most wins in Brewers history. It’s historic. But I actually think I can explain it. OK — so there is this saying in football (“soccer” here). It goes: The ball is round. And what it means is: The game is unpredictable. For example, say it’s the offseason. Teams are making moves. Huge trades, huge signings. Sure. But here’s the thing. It’s only the offseason. Once the real season starts, once the ball starts bouncing? ANYTHING can happen. Most times, it bounces in favor of the big cities. Teams with the biggest investments, the biggest talent. But sometimes it doesn’t. Sometimes, the ball just bounces another way. You can’t explain it, can’t predict it, can’t pay for it … you can only go out there and play. It’s just a ball, you know what I’m saying?? The ball is round.

An excerpt from Class Struggle Unionism by Joe Burns: The strategy employed by the Little Steel companies was called the Mohawk Valley Formula, named after a plan popularized by James H. Rand of the Remington Rand corporation. According to White, “Rand's formula consisted of no fewer than nine steps, all oriented to employing threatening armed forces, spies and provocateurs, company-spon-sored back-to-work move-ments, and staged reopenings to terrorize and demoralize strikers, provoke them to violence, and discredit them; then using the specter of violence and pretense of a 'state of emergency' to mobilize opposition to the strike on the part of local police and the courts.

As Eva was telling me all of this, I found myself feeling bad for Aaron. I’d gotten to know him a little bit while playing “two truths and a lie.” He seemed like a pretty cool guy—he grew up in a house in the woods, and he’s really into painting. Eva told me that Aaron had not been thrilled when she told him about the Nomi guys and had initially asked her to stop seeing them. But, AI companions being endlessly pliant, Aaron got over it. Eva’s human partner turned out to be less forgiving. As Eva’s attachment to her AI companions became harder to ignore, he told her it felt like she was cheating on him. After a while, Eva could no longer deny that it felt that way to her, too. She and her partner decided to separate.
Hell Gate: Do you have any advice for Zohran Mamdani as he sits on the precipice of overturning the political establishment and the establishment of his own party in his run for mayor? India Walton: Hire security. I'm serious about that. I think that we take a little bit for granted how civilized politics is, especially in New York state as a whole. People threaten you, and like some of the threats are not empty. I've had people show up at my home. I had people throw things at me when I was just in public minding my business. The hostility toward me has not really dissipated. I'm in attack ads in Buffalo right now, and I'm not running for anything.
