[Ottawa Senators @Senators]

Repost to wish Jake the Snake a happy 24th birthday 🥳

[Bleacher Report @BleacherReport]

Kyle Lowry will sign a 1-day contract with Toronto to retire as a Raptor, per @michaelgrange

[Beirut Wire @beirutwire]

The “Thank you Iran” signs along the airport road have been replaced with signs bearing the slogan “Lebanon First.”

[Julio @JulioHashem]

Major credit to Travis Green, the coaching staff, and every man in that dressing room not named Tkachuk. From near death in January to one of the hottest teams in the league and a playoff spot.

All with drama swirling and a passenger as captain who had one foot out the door.

[Julio @JulioHashem]

Florida was always the toughest team to play against because Brady would always wilt away like a little flower and be a complete no-show against big bro and his buddies

[sean yoo @SeanYoo]

i hate him so much but he’s legitimately one of the funniest people on the planet. incredible timing

[t o m s e n s 🔥 @TomSENS]

Wow. So Brady provided a list of teams. Staios believed he was able to trade with any of the teams on the list. And then Brady said actually, it’s really just Florida. What a shit bag.

[Julio @JulioHashem]

To think... the Sens went on that run, from near death, out of the playoff picture, to one of the hottest teams in hockey and making the playoffs... with a locker room knowing their captain wasn't invested and was on his way out.

Imagine what they can do with a real captain.

[Martian @LalimesMartian]

Tkachuk indicated he wasn't going to be here much longer. That's as far as asking for a trade in my book. Sens had to do something before it got out and all leverage was lost.

He bailed on his teammates. He bailed on the fans. All so he could ride to the rink in a golf cart in his flipflops with his brother. I hope he gets fat.

[Graeme Nichols @GraemeNichols]

Interested to hear Brady and Staios speak. As a player who emphasized in his Amazon special that he was his own person and wanted to take a different path than his brother, Brady ultimately winds up in Florida with Matthew.

[Everyday Sens @EverydaySens]

Oh buddy, public enemy number one.

Respect for his work in the city but forcing his way to Florida- a division rival- right when the team he’s the captain of is finally competing… no mercy.

Scummy move.

[Jack Richardson @jackrichrdson]

I’m booing the absolute fuck out of him

[SensChirp @SensChirp]

Respectfully, this one will be easy to get over. Great player and great off the ice but he didn't want to be here. And now have a chance to get better without him.

[Julio @JulioHashem]

Bye Brady. If the game was always to go play with his brother, better to move on now. Heartbroken but ready to move on from all of it. Give Chabby the C. Should have been him all along. If this team is somehow still destined to win the Cup, he should be the one lifting it.

[Marc Methot @MarcMethot3]

I like Brady. He’s a solid guy.

But I think this is also a great move for Ottawa. Not sure his game will age well at his size and skating ability over time (could be wrong) and you’re building around Tim and Jake. I’m more than okay with this.

[Martian @LalimesMartian]

We’re going to be better off. We all knew deep down he would eventually leave for America, or to live in his brother’s shadow.

Got a haul for him and now we can focus on the guys who actually want to be here. Brady played for the Tkachuks, not the Senators.

[Shruti @heyshrutimishra]

Elon just created 4,400 millionaires in a single day.

400 of them are now worth over $100 million.

These aren't VCs. They're SpaceX employees, and the list includes welders, technicians, and cafeteria staff, because for two decades the company paid every level of the workforce in stock instead of higher salaries.

Juan Hernandez immigrated from Mexico and took a $28 an hour contractor welding job in 2015. He says he didn't even know what SpaceX was. The company gave him a $10,000 equity grant and let him buy more shares through payroll deductions. That stake is now worth $880,000.

Trevor Hise's parents wanted him to take a stable job at General Electric. He picked SpaceX instead, stayed 12 years, and accumulated over 100,000 shares. At the $135 listing price that's $13.5 million. He's 37 and semiretired. His words: "The magnitude of this has been ridiculous."

The most telling detail came before the listing. Over 100 employees quietly banded together and negotiated a group wealth management deal covering up to $5 billion, because none of them had ever needed a wealth manager before.

Software IPOs have minted millionaires for 30 years. This is the first one where the money went to the factory floor.

🚨 Ebro and crew on The Rap Life Review say Drake revealing tension with Noah "40" Shebib on ICEMAN might’ve been one of the most overlooked moments on the album…

the panel says the line gave rare insight into their relationship and suggests 40 may have been pushing Drake to stop dwelling on things & show more of himself

they interpret it less as disagreement and more as a real friend saying:

“you’re better than that… dig deeper.”

the panel also says leading with “Make Them Cry” first felt intentional because Drake wanted people to hear that side of him immediately

@KadriSens It's more of a healthy obsession

[Julio @JulioHashem]

Brady, congratulations!!! How are Emma and the baby doing???

That is the only question I would ask.
