I truly don’t understand this “transplant” nonsense. The whole THING about NYC is that ppl come here from other places to mutate into New Yorkers! TO SEE IF THEY CAN BE KING OF THE HILL, TOP OF THE HEAP! Imho a rando who moved here a year ago is the MOST NY person. Welcome Ohio rando, have a bagel

You’re right—that plane shouldn’t have gone there. That’s my fault, and I should have made sure there wasn’t a terminal in the landing path. Would you like me to call emergency services, or assist with lining up takeoffs?

Why is the vanguard left take on AI suddenly that it’s not an existential threat? Is it because the take that “it will k*ll us all” is being manipulated by douchebags? I’m behind on this a bit. Someone explain.

the way to understand a piece like this from schmitz is that he lives in an urban, cosmopolitan millieu and the popularity of country music is a novelty to him. and so to explain it, he has to fit it into his volkish conception of america, whether or not that makes any actual sense.

Dolly Parton knew what it was like to struggle as she fought for working families her whole career. From providing free books to kids to giving working women our "9 to 5" anthem, she was an icon and an inspiration. Rest in power to our union sister. We will always love you.

The thing people should know about ZZ Top is that those early records, like Tres Hombres for example, are the gold standard for how rock records should sound. Immaculately recorded records, true auteur stuff, albums that set out to be exactly what they are

The league has to get rid of this Dundon guy. He bought the Blazers to hold the city of Portland hostage for arena money and now he's telling all of his underlings to shittalk the city so he can move to Kansas City or something. Cut this shit out or the league will be held hostage by similar ghouls.

The most KAT thing of all time — he was holding up the walkway off the court because he wanted to share the trophy with Knicks fans, so he stopped and leaned into the stands to let a bunch of them touch it. They reacted like it was the best moment of their lives.

an IG story from @nifmuhammad of a picture of Karl-Anthony Towns with text over it saying: "when i wrote that big ESPN story on the Wolves in 2023, there was one game day I was down in the locker room and in the training/catering area, and what really endeared me to KAT was how familiar he was with the workers and how kind he was to all of them. He asked the guy bringing in Gatorade about this son's soccer season, he asked a person bringing in fresh towels how their mom's health was. One of the workers brought their basketball loving/playing teenager in with them and pretty much every other player just gave a nod and silent fist bump but KAT was asking the kid what position he played, what shoes he played in. I think in an ecosystem where you're told constantly that you are larger than life and people exist to serve that reality, I was really overjoyed to see KAT just plainly reject that way of being

It's hard to overstate how excited Knicks fans are about this third finals game in Madison Square Garden. it's also hard to overstate how grotesque it is that Donald Trump has to push his way in, distracting from the city's joy and poisoning the evening's pure appeal. May the boos be loud.
