Dammit. I’m a City fan. Well this sucks.
Meaningless Excitement

Like a cross between a hurricane, and a ship that’s run aground. Phish, Grateful Dead, mountain biking, snowboarding, gardening in Brattleboro, Vermont. Sometimes using my doctorate to talk about Phish.
Absolutely unreal, this mayor!! What an amazing way to share the arts
Never been to the opera before? Now’s your chance. We’re giving away 70,000 free tickets to the @metopera at the iconic Lincoln Center. Go to on.nyc.gov/opera to enter the lottery. There’s not a bad seat in the house.
New live bait: A ‘95 Reba (its best year) A ‘94 Antelope (arguably its best year) A ‘95 Tweezer (arguably its best year) More fall ‘99 Ok @shapsio.bsky.social, I see you!!
Really proud of myself for only eating 1 whole bagel tonight (2 halves)

Incredible time seeing Mikaela Davis at a house concert venue in rural Vermont last night. 100% of ticket sales go straight to the artist and the show is in the person’s living room.
Student just came into the library and asked me what my single favorite year of live Grateful Dead is and I told him "hard pressed, I'd say 1973" and then he asked "better than '77?" and then we had a discussion about the relative merits of 2-drummer vs. 1-drummer Grateful Dead

I thought they were stopping socialism and government handouts also I’m not Barbara Magree
As of now, you have not purchased any tickets and you are not guaranteed any tickets.
"Yeah, we know, we’re seen as boring and old and out of touch. But we’re hungry for progress. As long as it feels scripted and familiar. We’re ready to usher in profound change, abstracted into a focus-group-tested campaign slogan." buff.ly/tt1slzK

I love that Tiafoe went right to Michelsen after winning to give him a big hug. Class act
Ok this Free is oddly dissonant and murky sounding I love it
My man looks like one of the goons Brad Wesley sent to trash the Double Deuce roadhouse
A great example of a very good point supported by a very bad graph.
Two-thirds of NYC’s income growth since the pandemic went to the top 1%. The richest 0.001% — about 50 families — saw their average income soar from $315 million in 2019 to nearly $600 million a year. It’s time to build a city that works for everyone.
Today I realized that my new job, which I love and which makes me so much happier than I was, means I’ll never go to Dick’s while still work here
What is this fucking Temu 10th Ave. Freezeout that they keep playing during the US Open bumpers?
Hard to believe that "centrism-for-centrism's sake" and "look, not everyone gets to be full citizens" weren't more compelling pitches to the Democratic base.
Well hot damn
Reprise downtown tonight, playing Stowe ‘93, which makes me very happy. Hopefully they’ll do some of that summer 93 weirdness! Also, don’t tell me anything about this show. I don’t know it and I don’t like to look at the setlist prior
I give you a photo of a Cybertruck crushing a no parking cone taken in the reflective windows of Pete Hegseth’s Christian nationalist Church next to the newly opened Jersey Mikes on Pennsylvania Avenue
Today I realized that Amanda Janoo could have a really good campaign song parody to Gotta Jibboo
