Drake fan in 2026. You can never take the millennial urban Desi boy outta him lol
Drizzy mention by Mayor Mamdani at Borough of Manhattan Community College grad 😬: "I know a thing or two about a nontraditional path... I am a Drake fan, and I can still recognize that 'Not Like Us' is a banger. We exist. Representation matters."

Humanity, created by God in all its grandeur, is today facing a pivotal choice: either to construct a new Tower of Babel or to build the city in which God and humanity dwell together. In Jesus Christ, this humanity in its grandeur becomes the Way, the Truth and the Life, opening the path for each of us to grow toward fullness. #MagnificaHumanitas vatican.va/content/leo-xiv/e…

"i was in india, it was about 15 years ago and i met with historians there" curtis sliwa really is the king of side quests
Curtis Sliwa agrees with Mamdani, says the British royals should return the diamond: “The royalty, they're a bunch of deadbeats, slackers, the worst welfare cheats in the world,” Sliwa says.

i really like that every year or two we get a new weird bird that totally destabilizes the entire city and briefly sends even the most bird-agnostic (or, hell, even bird-hostile!) into an ornithological frenzy
New Yorkers and tourists are flocking to Bryant Park to get a glimpse of New York City’s hottest bird this spring, the American Woodcock. These elusive, well-camouflaged birds pause during their migration to forage for earthworms, presenting a unique urban birding opportunity.

Across the United States, plasma centers are opening in wealthier areas as more people struggle with the high cost of housing, groceries and health care. Here's a look at the middle-class suburbanites who sell their blood plasma to get by financially: nytimes.com/2026/03/20/busin…

The world holds so much misery that miserable hearts forget the face of happiness. They grow comfortable being sore losers, so when they see real sportsmanship it unsettles them! like holy water touching a demon. Because clapping for someone else’s victory requires something many people never learned…how to win with grace & pure joy, and how to lose with grace, chin up & dignity.

US forces killed Mazen Dana in front of me and other journalists. The sound of the shots is still vivid. After his body was removed, a colleague put Mazen’s blood-spattered camera in our car to take to Reuters. Mazen had a wife and 4 children. Can confirm it was “not a great” day
Extraordinary email from Paul Bremer, the US bureaucrat who ran Iraq from 2003-4, to his wife.

Replying to @AssalRad
I reported this story and have been working around the clock since Saturday to cover the deaths and obtain definitive evidence so that we can confidently assign responsibility. We've been reviewing photos of the dust covered bodies of children and verifying their names against the names scrawled on little coffins. We've been debunking false claims about the attack and that the harrowing cemetery photo isn't real. And while it appeared obvious to many early on that the U.S. or Israel hit the school, it takes days to sift through, pinpoint and analyze the evidence. It took four days before a new satellite image we ordered came through so we could confidently assess the damage and the types of weapons used. All that reporting and cross checking and the production of the visuals showing it takes time. But it ultimately allows us to more confidently assert U.S. responsibility, explain our rationale and add to the body of reporting that officials should be challenged with. It's easy to critique a headline, and I agree language matters, but you diminish the reporting. We're not justifying anything, we're stating where the reporting points responsibility, and quoting legal experts on the laws of armed conflict. Here's a gift link nytimes.com/2026/03/05/world…

PACK THE INBOX! Today we flooded the email boxes of @nytimes management to let them know we are committed to all five of our priorities. We want to see them come to the table ready to negotiate seriously on each one.

The richest Americans saw their net worth soar 120% from 2017-25 and the number of US billionaires jumped 50% to more than 900. Overall, the top 1% now control $55.8 trillion in assets — more than the GDP of the US and China combined. @ktbenner nytimes.com/2026/03/02/us/bi…

This is incredibly cool — A source familiar with Bad Bunny’s performance tonight tells me that the couple in the halftime show got married for real. They invited Bad Bunny to their wedding and in turn he invited them to get married during his performance.

This is quite an exchange with @DavidAFrench about whether we are witnessing the emergence of a "dual state."
