@jcuooo @GioFvcks By organizing with other tenants towards demands that will actually change this system, like a National Tenants Bill of Rights and social housing. And by applying strategic pressure to decisionmakers who have allowed the market to run, unchecked.

Don't jump in my mentions about rental assistance. That's a bailout for the industry that comes with no strings attached and does nothing to change the imbalance of power between landlords and tenants. Talk to me about rent control. Talk to me about non-market social housing.

Especially compared to gas price discourse, chatter on rent demonstrates the chokehold the profiteers have on our imaginations. Rent is one of our biggest bills, yet we've normalized rent gouging. Rents are set based on whatever the market allows. We could change that, actually.

I was so grateful my parents were standing by my side today just as they have been my entire life. Two Bangladeshi immigrants who had never been to City Hall before just witnessed their daughter become their elected representative. I still have to do the dishes though 😂

This blistering dissent, and so many by Justice Sotomayor since she arrived on the bench, has me thinking about what it must feel like to ascend to the highest Court and be forced to exist largely as a dissenter as you watch that Court erode the protections of the Constitution.
Rebecca Traister@rtraister

The @thenation ran Justice Sotomayor’s full dissent as its own piece and you should read every urgent word of it: thenation.com/article/societ…

@geneweingarten I pride myself on my Pakistani cooking. I also love South Indian, and fusion dishes. That you got paid to write this tripe, and boldly spew your racism is deplorable. May your rice be clumpy, roti dry, your chilies unforgivable, your chai cold, and your papadams soft.
