NYC is electric right now. Between the World Cup β½οΈ, the Knicks victory π and the Puerto Rican Day Parade π΅π· the energy is unmatched. Anyone who tells you otherwise is not living here or has an ulterior motive.
Crazy to hear my name on The Joe Rogan Experience.
Really excited to show everyone what's coming next.
Thanks @JamieVernon & @joerogan for the shoutout!
Constant doublespeak, fear-mongering, and war.
You will be bombarded mentally, emotionally, and physically into submission.
Just collateral damage in someone's generational wealth run.
@JayRughani Also very, very bullish on this model - so much so that we're rolling out our own at @trymeasured over the next week. Happy to demo sometime if you're interested.
@rickasaurus Soon it will become impossible to move out of your socioeconomic class, and we will once again have to look inwards and towards religion to find meaning.
Equality, justice, dignity, and opportunity for all - not just a few. That is worth fighting for.
Remembering MLK Jr and his famous speech tonight. How far we've come, and how far we still have to go.

Fuck statements like this.
Similarly, fuck claiming that standing up for Gazans', West Bankers, Lebanese, Syrian people's right to live in peace and not get encroaching settlements, constant drone strikes and bombs is antisemitic.
And fuck claiming that standing up for Ukrainian people's right to live in peace and not be invaded is Russophobic.
And fuck not even noticing the needless and extreme manmade suffering in Sudan, Myanmar, North Korea and elsewhere.
And fuck the possibility that in the future statements like this will have to include a line for Greenland.
We stand for human dignity. That is the bottom line. You can disagree on details of individual situations and what specific actions hurt or help, but the bottom line in resolving such issues must be a common agreement that the underlying goal is to protect the dignity of all people. This is more important than political teams.
There are also people who are on the same political team as you, but whose words and actions clearly demonstrate that they are not interested in human dignity - genuine *phobes who use appeals to freedom and life opportunistically. This must also be opposed. Again, the north star is human dignity. To be ultimately more interested not in pushing the people you oppose down, but in lifting the people you feel sympathy for up. If you observe the long-term pattern of how someone acts, you can tell.
@paulg@naoyak Supporting an objectively evil person because it was potentially better for them financially does in fact make that person objectively bad.
