44% of rent stabilized units in NYC are occupied by people born outside of the US…
American-born citizens are subsidizing the foreign-born to live in our financial capital, while driving up prices of the remaining supply.
1% of people account for 63% of all violent crimes.
0.2% of people ever commit murder, and **67% of all murders**are committed by people with prior arrests
You can literally just fix crime by not tolerating people who show a history of being destructive to society.
In July 1985, over a billion people watched Live Aid.
Months earlier, Michael Jackson and Lionel Richie had written "We Are the World." All of it was a response to a famine in Ethiopia.
Almost nobody remembers who actually caused the famine. 🧵
Never forget when LeBron James tried to doxx and threaten the life of a white police officer for killing a black woman before he had any facts about what actually happened. Then the bodycam footage came out and showed that the officer heroically SAVED a black woman’s life that was about to be stabbed to death.
After this, LeBron deleted the post in shame but MILLIONS of people had already seen it and many of them still believe it today. He never apologized to the officer for doing this… just moved on like it never happened.
LeBron James is legitimately a terrible person.
No matter how jacked up the world gets, you can still choose to live a good life.
You'll never be able to control the world or everybody else in it. But you can control yourself and influence those around you in a positive way.

When your idea is better than your execution, but you still score a win:
Tokyo real estate agent hires green suit actor for promo video, then can’t figure out how to edit him out and posts it anyway…
This is approximately a million times worse than Epstein. It’s not even remotely close. The scale. The nature of the crimes. The powerful institutions implicated. And yet something tells me that many of the Epstein obsessives will have nothing at all to say about this.
Everyone was mad at me for this joke but then the next day the Pennsylvania Supreme Court politely asked their Soros DA to stop lying to courts in his ongoing effort to free as many convicted murderers as possible.
