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

Heard a parent yell to their kid biking away, “Journey! Don’t go so far!” Ma’am, you should not have tempted the gods of nominative determinism.

Pure coincidence I got tickets for the David Dinkins observation deck visit today. Certainly got emotional once I saw this view of World Trade 💙

There’s such an easy answer to this “gotcha” question and it’s “Sports are inherently unsafe and unfair and it’s ridiculous to single out trans athletes when we allow 150 pound linebackers to go up against 260 pound linemen in freshman football on a daily basis. Let kids play with their friends.”

The Democrats are losing the messaging game. This should obviously be called “BLUISIANA.”
A political text saying “⚠️ BLUE TSUNAMI ALERT ⚠️ Louisiana on cusp of going BLUE. Far-right in mounting panic as Bannon calls upon MAGA to “come to voting precincts armed.””

Okay as a creator that can get super bogged down in stats/accolades/recognition even though I know better, this was very helpful to read. The Dolly approach is the way. ❤️

Tim Curry and Dolly Parton have taught us not only that you should be bigger, weirder, gayer, and freakier, but also that those qualities are what people will love about you. The things that make you strange and amazing are the things that will resonate with other strange and amazing people

Seeing 3OH!3 in concert nearly 20 years later than the last time I saw them. Did I scream sing the chorus of “Don’t Trust Me” into my wife’s face? Absolutely. A powerful message is a powerful message. Timeless.

“Westbrook never, ever developed a consistent jump shot. He also made colors brighter. You don’t like his shot selection? Interesting, he makes me feel like I am riding a comet. Some people value players with quality shot diets. I value players who make me feel like I might touch God.”

This is outrageous.
Unlike a content creator advertising an actual product online, where the Federal Trade Commission could require them to be upfront about endorsements, no Federal Election Commission rule compels creators to say that a political group is paying them to post.

Ro Khanna: “I saw the arrogance in the eyes of the Settlers. 21 & 22 year olds with guns, laughing that they’d detained us. The arrogance of those IDF soldiers... It is the arrogance of power. Of a power that has had no accountability. Total impunity. And it’s created a toxic culture of oppression.”

Do centrist Dems realize that the incentive structure they're establishing by admonishing one of the few major Arab American figures who unequivocally endorsed Harris despite nothing being conceded on Gaza? The lesson for those Arabs will be to uh, not do that again.

The Knicks Game 3, the Round of 16…thank goodness Trump hates the USWNT so he won’t continue his curse.

In 2014, the US men were also eliminated by Belgium in the Round of 16. I had become heavily invested and was crushed. I decided in that moment to lock in for the women’s World Cup the next year to avoid similar heartbreak. It panned out very well and has ever since. Highly recommend doing the same!

I know they’re doing a play on the “goes great with” descriptor, but super bold to make a registered trademark that could be interpreted as cannibalism.
