The Rent Guidelines Board’s rent freeze for one- and two-year leases goes into effect today!

If you’re in a rent-stabilized apartment, any lease renewal starting today must remain at the same rent that it was last year.

Contact 311 and ask for the Tenant Helpline to find out whether your building is covered and your rights as a tenant.

Wow, powerful thread by John O'Farrell, the first outside general partner at Andreessen Horowitz.

He just broke ranks with Silicon Valley on the California billionaire tax.

"I find the knee-jerk opposition of some ultra-wealthy people to the idea of paying any new tax deeply disappointing. To be honest, I can't understand it. They have so much money they couldn't spend it in multiple lifetimes."

I have received an extremely disturbing dm that contained a link to an alleged telegram groupchat with tons of screenshots of the Cornell 7 rapists sharing nude images of a girl and bragging about it. It was also found on 4chan and dates back to 2024 when the rapes took place. I do not know if the girl in the images is the victim or someone else.

Winston, Matthew, Johnathan, Diego, and both Scott Norris and Scott Kretzschmar are seen participating in the messages and sharing imagery of the girl on Snapchat.

These are some of the messages

In one of the snapchats Johnathan says “I think she fell asleep” as he’s ejaculating on her face and showing a photo of what looks like a girl passed out.

Winston is also encouraging them and messages “post more.”

Diego says “Imma miss tonight fkkk”

They appear to be trying to find another girl to invite over and Scott K says “Better not be a fatty again”

Matthew then sends them a nude photo he received from a girl saying “JHU fatty sent me this btw”

It seems like they often had group sex together based off these messages.

They then share an image of a girl to which Jonathan says “Yuck. I wish she worked out half as hard as she sucked dick.”

Winston also uses a slur and says “This ch**k slut won’t be walking tomorrow”

This is some of the grossest things I’ve seen and it is clear they knew exactly what they were doing and were degrading women. These messages also prove this did not happen once and they have a history of looking for women to invite over. I do not know if the media has seen these messages but they are now public. Some of the girls faces are blurred but some aren’t. For that reason I do not feel comfortable posting a direct link to the channel. I will share a few of the messages where the girls cannot be identified as well as proof of what I posted above with the girls image blurred out.

The amount of vile, disgusting responses I've gotten to my post from yesterday is insane. This is literally why people don't report sexual assault.

There was an interesting interview with Harry Stebbings of @20vcFund (I can’t @ him as he blocked me for some reason, which is lost in the distant past) at @Siftedeu's Sifted Summit. I’m not sure if their on-stage content will end up online? Anyway, here’s a short summary:

Interviewed by Sifted’s Freya Patty (@FPratty), he talked about media, VC, social, and politics. His media strategy is that strong stances, personality, testing, and short-form content drive reach, and “nuance doesn't sell.” Basically, if you aren’t doing (alongside other content like a podcast etc) short form and clips, you aren’t ‘on the map’. (Thanks Harry, noted for our @pathfounders GTM strategy).

His podcast team actually uses predictive models to assess whether a guest will ‘go viral’ or not. If they aren’t likely to, they won’t get booked in the first place. Indicative quote: "No one gives a shit about, like, old school SaaS."

As an investor, he prioritises founders’ resilience, adaptability, and intensity over market forecasts or financial projections. At one point he said “We look for psychopathic factors.”

He was critical of current UK politicians: “They've never built a business. They have no idea the implications of their policies, and they don't understand how to inspire, how to ignite enthusiasm, ambition, and make us feel like we can do unbelievable things. Andy Burnham stands on the stage and says, ‘We did the industrial revolution.’ Why can't we lead in AI? With the greatest of respects, it just tells us the lack of intelligence that this man has.”

His $400 million fund will require investments capable of reaching roughly $10 billion in value. That means he has to make bets on startups that can reach large markets and be ambitious. I guess this is obvious, but that's what prompted my question during the Q&A:

From the floor, I asked him why he didn’t consider moving himself, the fund or both to the US in order to get the returns he needs, and he said: “We've got Lovable” and mentioned a couple of others I couldn’t catch. He also regrets not being in Eleven Labs.

There was a lot more than that, of course, but that’s a short heads-up.

Before you do anything else today, you should read the transcript of @TIME’s brand new interview with President Trump. https://t.co/aWJgBILw3s

“Like we bombed those sites, and I call it nuclear dust—was under 1000s of tons of rubble. I could have stopped there, and I felt it was just inappropriate because—and they were itching to go on with their lives, if not there, someplace else.
And so I went further.”

He’s INSANE.

I was gang raped in 1998 by 4 men. 2 of them were Oregon State University football players. I immediately reported to the police, got a rape kit done, & reported to the school.

[Fifty Shades of Whey @davenewworld_2]

Cornell University police condensed a former student's interview into a 6-page document that OMITTED her explicitly stating, "I can say with 100% confidence I was raped".

The Tompkins County DA said his office relied on this condensed 6-page file when making the decision not to press charges. He says he hadn't seen the full interview transcript.

Cornell knew what they were doing by leaving that off the summary. They wanted to sweep this under a rug. It looks like a conspiracy to cover up felony sex crimes to protect their reputation.
