i am hooting, hollering, cheering, obsessed:

[𝐋𝐞𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐝 @Be_like_legend]

A friend of mine a couple years ago was complaining that his fiancé stopped sleeping with him recently. We're all asking him "what did you do??" And he said he hasn't done anything, which obviously none of us believe. Then we go to his house to play some card games one night, and I get kinda thirsty so I walk to the kitchen to grab a drink from the fridge.

@KevinBriggs1776 @shadihamid @dmarusic @TheAnnaGat thanks for this in-good-faith question. We actually did discuss it -- sorry you weren't there!

[Anna Gát 🧭 @TheAnnaGat]

In Washington DC on Friday evening 📖

Our inaugural @WCrowdsLive x @interintellect_ salon with the great @ChristineEmba @shadihamid @dmarusic talking about societal taboos in America - whether any remain, if so what are they?

Incredibly fun, engaged audience - sold out space ✨

[McKay Coppins @mckaycoppins]

Mitt Romney to Harvard Business School graduates: "There's more to a country than its economy. To be a great nation, it must also be a good nation. The world needs good men. It needs good women. Good leaders. Good parents raising good children. There is no national success that could compensate for failure to be a good and noble people."

every day i see children doing and saying things i'd have never dared *dream* of ... it's truly sad.

[Daniel Buck, “Youngest Old Man in Ed Reform” @MrDanielBuck]

I'm astounded by the number of young parents who let their children talk back to them, speak rudely to them, or outright insult them. And in public, too.

Y'all, teach your children some manners.

amazing work Elon, thank you for the efficiency.

[Christine Emba @ChristineEmba]

So the legacy of DOGE so far:
1) driving 1000s of experienced gov't workers out of needed roles & in many cases having to rehire them, wasting rather than saving federal funds,
2) triggering a recession in the nation's capitol, & now
3) slowing int'l response to an EBOLA EPIDEMIC

[Acyn @Acyn]

Mamdani: I’m feeling incredible about the Knicks. I have to give a shoutout to my friend because the only reason I could watch Game 1 is because he had YouTube TV and he gave me his login. A lot of people ask, “What’s democratic socialism?” Sharing YouTube TV with your boys.

@ChriSolorio smh

[Christine Emba @ChristineEmba]

Indeed... we should be asking Jeff Bezos to pay more instead.

[Shay Boloor @StockSavvyShay]

Jeff Bezos said the bottom half of Americans should pay zero federal income tax.

He cited a nurse in Queens making ~$75K and paying ~$12K in taxes saying “we shouldn’t be asking this nurse in Queens to send money to Washington.”

I love that my book is still traveling!

[Nueva Revista @_nuevarevista]

La llamada «liberación sexual» trajo más relaciones y más diversas. Se las ha querido reducir a mero juego, pero @ChristineEmba sostiene que «el sexo debería ser significativo» en su obra «Rethinking sex. A provocation».

Pope Leo XIV treated to some Neil Diamond as the band of the Pontifical Swiss Guard play Sweet Caroline.

@FrostyPugFiesta depends on what you mean

[Christine Emba @ChristineEmba]

The obvious answers to me are cost (esp when the assumption is that to be a good parent, your kids must have *the best*/their own rooms/other novel 'necessities') + starting late (also a reason that completed fertility lags desired fertility)

[Derek Thompson @DKThomp]

@conncarroll There’s still the question of why do married couples make 2 babies now rather than 5
