1,000 World Cup tickets. $50 each. All for New Yorkers.
We fought hard to make the people’s game available to the people — and won.
Let the summer of soccer begin.
Do you have an elderly or disabled neighbor in NYC?
Be a good neighbor and let them know about the free air conditioner program.
If they earn $3473 or less a month, NYC will cover the costs of an A/C. Remember…last summer we had 95 degree weather. Look out for them

Thanks to @BlewisPhoto for the assignment.
Covered @AIPADphoto The Photography Show and @Adobe “Interventions in Photography” panel.
Big takeaway:
Photography isn’t just about the image.
It’s about access, trust, point of view, and responsibility.
Especially now, when AI + social media are changing how fast images
The NY/NJ host committee, Mayor Mamdani and Gov. Hochul announced free World Cup fan zones in each of NYC’s five boroughs today.
The Queens event originally required a $10 ticket.
REVEALED: Confidential report shows MSG surveilled Knicks super-fan, second-by-second — from entrance to bathroom to courtside.
"This is not somebody threatening anyone at the Garden — this is a transgender woman on Pride Night, getting a good seat."
Using facial recognition tech, the Knicks surveilled a trans woman, tracking her every move out of fear she'd show up on MSG's tv broadcast
And they can do it to any "enemy" of Jim Dolan, who's built his own deep state. From @NoahShachtman

“This wasn’t just a night of Bam chasing history, and the team helping him get there late. It felt like a “thank you.”
For what he’s done.
For what he is.
For who he is.”
For @YahooSports, went long on a special night from a special player.

this is one of the coolest, most pure basketball moments i can ever remember. spo letting bam play the whole game and challenging a late offensive foul on him, a’ja and bam’s mom beaming in the stands, all his teammates losing it on the bench.
sports!!!
In Wilt's 100 game, Philly was letting NYK score quickly in the 4Q so they could get the ball back and feed the big man.
Kobe took 13 of LA's 17 FGA - and all 13 of their FTA - in the 4Q to get to 81.
No one's ever scored 70+ "ethically". What Bam did is insane and joyous.
Trump posting this video — especially during Black History Month— is a stark reminder of how Trump and his followers truly view people. And we’ll remember that in November.
Creed (2015) could have been a lazy spin off, but Ryan Coogler turned it into a true legacy story. Sylvester Stallone only agreed to return after Coogler pitched it as a film about fathers & sons, which unlocked one of the best performances of his career.
love this. especially as i age, i respect a man who respects the game and moves in gratitude when he hasn’t been mistreated. this is just how it goes sometimes.
the absolute poetic irony of ja’s career being ruined for brandishing a g*n on IG live while the owner of his team manufactured literal war crime machines
