That one of the great tragedies of life is the paradox of wisdom and age. As you become wiser about life and the world, you have less time to apply it yourselt. So you try to pass it down, but some things just can't be heard in youth. It only comes through the experience of living. And then the cycle repeats: you remember that someone tried to give you some gems and you didn't listen, so you try to do the same. It's a somewhat cruel time loop of sorts, and I ponder over the design sometimes.
The NYC Mayor’s Twitter account is now under Mayor Mamdani’s name, but unlike the White House accounts, prior tweets are not archived or clearly attributed to past administrations.
As a result, there are tweets still visible that are jarring when they appear under Mayor Mamdani’s name — even though they were posted before he took office.
My son called me crying
“Dad, school ended 4 hours ago. I’m still waiting for you to pick me up!”
Click.
I hung up.
Weak pitch. No clear call to action. Didn’t give me a reason to care.
I went back to cold emailing billionaires.
He’ll have to learn a better way to get my attention if he wants my help.
Mike Tomlin will say something like, "We can't eat soup with forks. We need spoons." Then the Steelers will sign a 2018 Pro Bowler to the practice squad.
I'm not knocking football, but there’s something wrong with their calendar. I'm at SJU and we are potentially a one seed and can win a National Championship this year, and I leave in March??? What’s going on here?
Seinfeld cast voting for mayor:
seinfeld: cuomo
elaine: mamdani
kramer: sliwa
george: wears an i voted sticker, didn’t vote
The whole episode would be about George trying to get the sticker just to get a date with a women who works at the polling place with indecipherable politics
The #Jets won their first game on the day that franchise legend Nick Mangold died at 41. Consider:
Mason Taylor caught the game-winning TD -- son of Jason Taylor, Mangold's teammate in 2010.
Nick Folk kicked the game-winning PAT, Mangold's teammate from 2010-16.
The win happened about 47 miles away from Centerville, Ohio, where Mangold was born.
“Israeli families and the people of Gaza” - this wasn’t a deliberate demarcation of humanity; it’s reflex. A masterclass in seven words on how Palestinians are rendered faceless and nameless when slaughtered, while Israelis are granted empathy - especially when they are the butchers.
I don't agree with the Cardinals fining Coach Gannon $100k... I believe it only happened because of the soft ass world we live in today... If you're an athlete with any kind of integrity and respect for the game..you'll understand that situation…This is football..that play clearly cost them the game…I hope this doesn't cause a weird vibe between the coach Gannon and Demercado..
