This is the first time I've listened to an interview with Bronson. I'm a socialist and do not agree with his libertarian policies. But he sounded very genuine in wanting to tackle the issue of homelessness using ideas that have worked for cities. When he was mayor, a homeless navigation center project was greenlit, engineering and design were completed, and concrete was already being poured. This was done without the approval of the assembly and rightly stirred a shit storm:

and ended up being an expensive failure:

He says that it was killed in a shameless partisan way "so that a Republican didn't get the win." If this wasn't the case, why was this cancelled? Why haven't we been able to centralize services at one navigation center and why is the scattered/piece meal approach (that obviously isn't working) still being pushed? What was wrong with the $15/million pricetag when we are spending $9 million/year just to keep a small part of the population in hotels?

I understand we won't be building studio apartments for the homeless anytime soon, but getting them out of the camps in the woods should be our top priority. The time for stupid partisan politics is over and everything that has been done in the past in this toxic political environment has failed. In before anyone posts Ds/Rs are evil. You are a brainwashed idiot who has no interest in actually solving this problem and your opinion adds nothing to the discussion!

edit: wow, what a braindead thread. Thank you to all who added new information and addressed the issues.

FYI - they want your opinions.

Mary Peltola appeared in this video with Lawrence O'Donnell on Monday, 10/.26/26, after the accident. She received minor injuries, but she looks like she's doing well.

Anyone know where I could purchase an XLR cable with both male and female ends? Looking for one around 5 feet if possible? ( 10ft MAX)

Edit: SOLVED. Found a few at guitar center

Saw this cat walking around the parking lot of JL Tower in midtown at 6:30 tonight. It ran away from me towards the neighboring parking garage.

I live in AZ now but I love my home state and I'm so excited about Mary Peltola. I get served up articles about Peltola every few days, and the headlines are always dismissive or negative. I mean, I'm aware that New York could care less about Alaska but they seem to be specifically trying to kneecap her.
