Saw great Jonah Peretti deck years ago on why cat meme and serious reporting can coexist. He used Parisian cafe society highest thinking and lowbrow jokes as historical example. But Sartre didn't have to make money for investors or figure out internet journalism biz model

OK you all know which one of your nyc friend(s) to make dinner and or drinks plans with now and you dont even have to get up to use the bathroom right before the bill comes; no venmo shares needed either. Or actually, maybe just ask for down payment on home.

Larry Fink has been busy for years de-carbonizing portfolios at the world's largest money manager. Now he is preparing to de-globalize them.

I don't have problem with billionaires getting closer (not even all the way there!) but closer to paying same tax as I pay on a % of income basis. Demonizing them silly, but wage earners paying a lot more also sorta crazy (and always has been) imo

Here is an article where i really wanted to be like a regular online reader and not read past headline and decide for my stubborn self what I want it to say, but they just had to go put the nut graf right under headline. Not nice.

For Mets fans currently in spring training warm-up mode for our typical early season delusional belief that things are in fact looking different and better and this year it's for real (!), a painful reminder of the oft-Mets truth arrives before opening day

$AMZN The times they are a-Changin'

taxes done and looks like beyond food and gas, there's some serious inflation in the 1040 this year. Advanced child tax credit ponzi scheme didn't help -- here one minute, back to Uncle Sam the next. But if funding Ukrainian aid, guess I'm OK with it. cnb.cx/34HhXhZ

I will be starting the 'Sociopathic Grandpa from Omaha' Twitter handle today if not already claimed.

Really enjoyed this and the Beatles riffing comparison a great open. This album saw me through one long ago road trip up and down Pac Coast Highway vying with VU’s Loaded and my appreciation has never waned regardless of its rep relative to other Pavement

Blue chip value rotation away from high tech growth. Or in other words, Beeple has some old school competition.

best to admit when one is a petty individual: While in job market I think every worker should pursue whatever opportunity they think best, in sports i act as if this logic does not apply, and so I am happy Harden is out of playoffs. Which seems petty if honest for a brooklynite

the kind of cost cutting a wise leader identifies as nickel and dime stuff and not the answer. And the explanation, ‘Amazon’s’ impact was not big enuf, tone deaf big tech narcissism for program designed to let others choose impacts they wanted locally. imo cnbc.com/2023/01/18/ama…

Similar to an employer who has match program for individual employee donations (in my case goats in Africa and landmine sniffing rats in Cambodia) saying match being discontinued because the company’s impact not big enough. I guess that’s next.

We came up with rapid Covid tests (albeit with maybe more at stake than long suffering Mets fans experience) but cant some chemist American Chemistry figure out a way to have MLB swab for rosin and sweat vs spider tack btwn innings? May not earn a Nobel but would sorta be useful

Bob Dylan way to sum up Steve Cohen’s press conference message: Not Dark Yet Bob Dylan youtu.be/25sy75TtriA via YouTube #LGM #LFGM #notdarkyetbutitsgettinthere

Lets give Jorge Lopez his props. Mets 12-4 since he cared enough to get pissed off about sucking. I’d say top three in team MVP voting so far this season.

Life is so short and precious, gone but never forgotten. Rest In Peace Johnny Hockey you will always hold a special place in every hockey fans heart.

Worth pointing out here that the basis for the reader’s ability to add context here is reporting by … the “legacy” media

So, if Im to understand this argument correctly, a target of 3% hiring out of 100% total, in country where 13% of population is disabled per BLS, and is only hiring class per DoT where by law there is such a target, can be defined as “prioritizing” DEI over all, including safety?
