@TennisPodcast Update: I am on Feb 15 2016, and according to David Law's twitter polls, few people think Nadal will ever win another slam, and they aren't sure Federer will either. Crazy to think Nadal won 8 more from that point, and Federer 3 more.
Having Siri misinterpret 90% of my requests on mobile/ipad/Mac has been good, but having Siri misinterpret 90% of my requests on my kitchen counter is going to change everything.
There is a silent hegemony in tennis, so it won’t be discussed. But Sinner should sue Wimbledon for damages, and Wimbledon’s grass should be converted to clay.
On October 7th, 2023, Abdul El-Sayed���s sister attacked Bernie Sanders for condemning the Hamas terrorists.
She posted this as Hamas was actively murdering 1,200 people — including 49 Americans.
I’m just going to sit here and clock all the outrage…
Sanders can appear at an event with Bannon. Mamdani invites Trump to Gracie Mansion. But Jeffries meets with Kushner and folks lose their minds?!
Guess he forgot to ask permission. 🤷🏾♂️
Abdul, we were both on the ballot in 2018. I was capable of winning my competitive primary and general election. You lost.
You lost by over twenty points to Gretchen Whitmer and you will lose to Mike Rogers by talking like this.
Everyone in America understands you want to blame all of your problems on Jewish Americans.
But buddy, let me be very clear, I will lower the costs of groceries, ban stock trading for elected officials, stop Trump's abuses of power, and protect Michigan manufacturing.
And you’ll just be a celebrity whining and writing books to get even richer. You’re part of the complainer class, looking for their next book or podcast deal.
Bro, I just want to work for Michigan.
happy birthday america.
the greatest place ever invented.
i’ll spare the cliche immigrant story or whatever but one thing i think about a lot is when i moved to london ppl would basically always tell me to tone it down (cuz i used words like awesome all the time) or ppl told me i was too optimistic or that would always be enthusiastic about something working. i had hard time doing this cuz i never learned any of this behavior, it was sorta just built into me. i found that to be strange & it took me a long time to realize they they were correcting all of my priors instead of simply correcting my vocab.
that’s kinda the thing that is hard to explain until you leave. what makes this place so damn unique is ppl here are unusually willing to have an absurd dream & then attempt to make it real. it’s the greatest concentration of individuals on the planet who actually try to make stuff *real*. that instinct feels almost pre programmed into americans. “why not me?” is prolly the macro that separates this country from anywhere else.
ppl love comparing here to other places using metrics like healthcare, trains, safety, etc. those things matter. but they are the outputs not inputs. the inputs matter way more. kinda like sports leagues trying to create the next generation of stars by investing in little league. the macro inputs of america are the belief that the future is not something that happens to you, but something you are allowed to build or change.
& here, far more than anywhere else on earth requires almost zero permission to attempt it all.. without asking for any sort of cultural consent. that’s why all of the shit you see around the world is basically invented in america.
what an astonishingly ridiculous beautiful country.
@samkimsamkim@MarkLevineNYC Hmm but a lot of people not from NYC commute in - and the office should up their air to the 80s - not seeing why it would be worse
You can think the punishment for Vondrousova is too harsh but there is nothing to be heartbroken about here. She refused the test whilst knowing the consequences, posted the official's identity online whilst simultaneously claiming she herself suffers from online abuse and then actively sought to continually misrepresent what happened that night by saying it was 'late at night' when the reality was it was 8pm and she went on a dog walk afterwards. It's a shame but the mess is of her own creation.
@LinkedInHelp I have a case I opened on May 19th with you and it is still not resolved after many back and forths, Linkedin just closed the case. It should be very straight forward. Can someone please help me out on this ASAP .
@BastienFachan@MarkHalperin Guess xenophobia against Americans is okay! Not like people from all over the world try to get an American education for college. Let’s keep the same tropes about all Americans people love to use!
Two of New York City's top fiscal watchdogs are set to warn the City Council Tuesday that Mayor Zohran Mamdani's first budget relies so heavily on one-time measures and accounting maneuvers that the city's structural deficit is only getting worse. https://t.co/COMK2Vw3ez
.@bradlander is a career politician who is always focused on his next job, not his current one.
In 2025, Brad was so busy running for mayor that he failed to adequately warn the City about a $12 billion budget shortfall, forcing the mayor and governor to find stopgap measures that hurt our future.
I am running for reelection because I am uniquely qualified for what we need in Congress in this moment. My opponent is running for Congress because he needs a job.
@olgakhazan My first language is Russian too- I wish I could teach my kids Spanish or mandarin but I don’t know it! Good brain development to be multi lingual. If I can find an immersion school or nanny that can teach them Spanish or mandarin I 100% would. But Russian is all I have.
