At the Reflecting Pool, and guys, this doesn’t look right

brb etching “the opposite of man is not woman, it’s boy” onto a granite slab so it can be witnessed in perpetuity

Tony Bourdain taught us all that a place is full of good food, good people, and good experiences despite very shitty politics and I think it’s kind of classically American to have thought we were excluded from that Venn diagram

Paraphrasing a comment I read elsewhere: Americans needed this. Things… haven't been going well for us lately so seeing tourists connect, genuinely and joyfully, with our culture has been uplifting.

Last image from tonight (short film in the morning): this brother out here with his Singer sewing machine, gifting people a custom embroidery on their jerseys and hats with the name and the date, was more artistic than anything at Burning Man and ad gorgeous as a Caravaggio. Magic! Goodnight.

“Scots discovering tailgating” could be a real Prometheus stealing fire moment

Ohhh look at me I'm New York City. I have an awesome basketball team with likeable players and a mayor that cares about making life better for every citizen man fuck you

going to laugh forever about the Knicks only losing the Trump Game immaculate scriptwriting, no notes

Dude I was just in a crowd that was blocking a bus and the girl behind me started chanting “MTA, MTA” and then the crowd parted to let the bus thru 😭 Greatest city in the world baby

GOD its nice to see some unrestrained joy. It's been awhile.

They’re climbing the busses in Astoria, Queens

It took Mamdani five months to get rid of the NYC deficit and oversee a Knicks title. 🫡

eating in mexico as a european has gotta be like hearing music for the first time

I generally don't like cross-posting from Twitter, but Mike Young absolutely nails how the US wound up with a resurgence of the flesh-eating screwworm decades after it had been eliminated.

No one wants you to know what the other side of the MGM logo looks like

If you need a script for getting your company off Twitter, I WROTE YOU ONE. Multiple people have used it, successfully, to explain the legal liability your company incurs by forcing employees to be on a platform with child sexual abuse material. I will help you use it. anildash.com/2026/02/23/t...

If you thought this town fucking hated Trump before

He lives in a pineapple under the sea.

People will say it's "Tech Week" here in NYC. Well, any event run by Andreessen Horowitz is illegitimate, because the NYC tech community has values, and one of its most fundamental is its humanity. They have forfeited theirs.

We should be two “D&D Honor Among Thieves” sequels deep.

Ken Paxton just gave an Epstein-style deal to a pedophile. Paxton released Adam Hoffman — an admitted child rapist — back on our streets after Paxton’s rich lawyer friend got involved. The Epstein Class has no place in Texas. Ken Paxton has no place in the US Senate.

Playboy created a Bluesky account and their first post is to complain about AI. They already understand the Bluesky userbase better than the bluesky devs

the president of the united states sued his own government for ten billion dollars and “settled” it by directing that government to use taxpayer money for a nearly two billion dollar slush fund to distribute to his political allies at will typing it out barely feels real

I'm sorry, what? In writing my first monograph, I spent six weeks trying to track down a citation in TWO languages I didn't know. And good thing too, because the citation was wrong. That's scholarship. That's research. You know, the thing we're trained to do?!?

Only need to swap "potato" with "wheat" and this is Texas A&M dead to rights

Hits me right in the almost-40s

There are no notes to this game, absolute perfection.

A state that redraws its legislative maps before every election to maximize advantage for the incumbent party is not a democracy or a republic and in any case obviously violates the guarantee clause, among many others. No country does this. No country ever thought of doing this. It is a total farce.

This is because administration officials didn't get to see the "the First Amendment is OK actually" pocket squares.

RIP freud. you would’ve loved whatever this is.

While the world’s eyes are on fashion’s biggest night, we’re turning ours to the garment, retail, and warehouse workers who keep the industry running. From true love found on the picket line to a free tailoring school out of a Brooklyn basement — meet the New Yorkers who make it all possible.

Or, even when an act is a performance, the audience is entitled to do anything except select themselves.

Hi! I'm a farmer! This NYT article is sweet, saccharine bullshit. Farmers knew Trump was going to hurt our business. Because he already did a trade war in his 1st term. I even did a video on why so many farmers support Trump, WHILE knowing he'd hurt our farms.

I find it incredibly telling when men like Dawkins are convinced that the LLMs are ‘intelligent’ because it ‘agrees’ with them or tells them how insightful or clever they are

okay, fine, here's an emoji for you

You laugh, but A/B testing is best practice in effective messaging,

I'm about to say something I haven't said in 8 years: I'm looking for a full-time job. I'm looking for the right role with the right people and the right mission, all of which I've laid out in this blog post. I'm mostly interested in something new, so if this sounds like your team I'd love to talk.

So it's going to cost 4x as much as estimated and we have to pay 100% of that instead of the 0% that was promised, good job everyone, hit the showers.

EVERYONE LOOK AT MY NEW GADGET! Backed the designrules.co kickstarter way back when and it’s finally here.
