Reading passages on the SAT have been shortened from 500-750 words down to 25-150. They say “the eliminated reading passages are ‘not an essential prerequisite for college’ and that the new, shorter content helps ‘students who might have struggled to connect with the subject

It is by now apparent that what the internet set into motion was not the digital Jeffersonian Democracy that was predicted, but a new Dark Ages. We are careening toward reversing mass literacy and I don’t see any off ramp in sight.

Adams' new slogan "Delivers. Never quits” - first reported here by Chris - is almost certainly meant as a dig against Andrew Cuomo for resigning.

every bomb that is dropped in a foreign country could have been a school, a hospital, or a road here. none of this is necessary to keep you safe, and it's all in service of a small group of people who already have more money than they could spend in a lifetime

I had many years of working for NYC from the poorest communities up, we ended solitary, raised the age for kids, bought about parole reform,& closed many prisions & jails. Cuomo was always the opposing force everytime.! The poorest home in the Us is NY15 Please🙏🏾#DontRankCuomo

Kevin Durant has officially completed the NBA rainbow challenge😭😭😭😭😭

Joni Kletter Brad Lander Goldman has no Brooklyn roots. Lander would obliterate him in the non-Boro Park BK portions of NY-10, and hold firm enough in Manhattan. Not only would he win, I don't know if they'd be all that close.

Lots of ifs. But *if* Mamdani wins and *if* Lander's vote share goes more to him than Cuomo (it's been fairly evenly split when he gets disqualified in polls) he will likely be celebrated by a movement that passed him over for Mamdani.
