If we could go from 0.05% of readers who support The 562 to 1% we could spend more time covering Long Beach and less time raising money. Please donate today if you can! givebutter.com/the562s-end-o…
Thanks to the 12 readers who’ve helped kick off our annual fundraising drive! We need more of the 200,000 monthly 552 readers to join in and help us come back for another year givebutter.com/the562s-end-o…

Someone is going to write the cringiest business leadership team building book about this playoff run and I’m going to preorder it
The New York Knicks have outscored their opponents by 272 points in the past 12 games That's the best 12-game stretch from any team in NBA history, regular season or playoffs

I worry that Wembanyama will get caught up in the distractions of New York City, like the Rose Reading Room at the public library or the upcoming conference on participatory futures at The New School
