Mayor de Blasio announced today that more money will be pouring into Lower Manhattan for storm protection. The federal government has already awarded $335 million to the city for a bridging berm from 23rd Street to Montgomery Street. From the mayor’s press release put out a short time ago:
Mayor de Blasio announced today that the City is committing millions of dollars to further resiliency planning and implementation around Lower Manhattan, part of a comprehensive climate adaptation plan underway across the five boroughs. This includes $6.75 million from the City and State for comprehensive flood protection planning below Montgomery Street and around the tip of Lower Manhattan to the west side, and another $8 million in City capital funds for Battery Park flood protection design and implementation both aimed at protecting Lower Manhattan residents, businesses, and infrastructure from future extreme weather while enhancing the vitality of the area.
We even offered some totally sincere advice on how to put together a more successful straight pride event in the future.
The group had intended to rally a crowd of 2,000 people clamoring, presumably, for the right to remain straight. The event was canceled
because it was strikingly stupid to begin with because of low attendance, but the disproportionately proud-to-have-straight-sex Navom and Sahady were so committed to celebrating their heterosexuality that they made the trip anyway.
But, at least one shit-stirring rally would be in the cards for the pair. Navom and Sahadi are members of Super Happy Fun America, which organized a better-attended Straight Pride Parade last year in Boston, and last week, they were among the throng of President Donald Trump supporters protesting at the Capitol, demanding Congress stop the steal.

“BULALAKAW”
Janine Berdin and composer Joanna Ang bring healing in the “Bulalakaw” music video directed by Edriel Garcia and Yani Bautista. Dressed in white gowns, the two belters render the Visayan pop song in harmony, ending the story with a view of the sunrise, a perfect scene to bring hope to viewers.
