Mamdani won the primary election. In the US parties don't choose their candidates for elections (in b4 "but superdelegates!") like you see in other electoral systems where an internal party committee selects a candidate list. So this election was determining who was going to be the Democratic candidate for the actual election.

But New York has some weird fusion laws that allow people to run on multiple party lines so Cuomo, even though he lost the Democratic nomination, can still run in the general election.

This is exactly the reason I love sticker packs in Signal so much, they add an extra option for tone/body language while also reinforced shared favorite media with friends/family. Binge a TV show with your partner? Make a sticker pack out of it and now you get ti show how you feel and reinforce the shared experience.

I've definitely had moments where I found myself in some random r/ and realized I wasn't sure if this was bot spam or actual humans. It's pretty dissociating to actually fully internalize the dead Internet theory.

Think about the two blocks on the right of the side view forming the step in the middle row. What’s behind them? Are you assuming it’s the full truck width of three? How do you know it isn’t a bit of a “false front” and it’s only one deep, or two? What if one is three “deep” and the only is only one? What about the center? Maybe it’s “hollow” on the inside?

“The company is in trouble! We need to pay our CEO more to incentivize performance! Also we can’t fire them because a transition during our difficulties would only hurt the company more!”

“The stock price is growing! We need to pay our CEO more to make sure no competitor tried to hire them away from us!”
