Elissa Slotkin to Bill Maher: “The average person just wants shit to work. I don’t give a shit if you’re a Republican, a Democrat, an Independent—just live in the zone of practicality. And the far right and the far left live in a different universe.”

Most risks don’t fail - they fade. They lose momentum between awareness and action. That gap is where exposure lives. I unpack this here: open.substack.com/pub/damian…

I love that @onepeloton is expanding bikes and treadmills into gyms and accelerating its commercial strategy. But first: please fix the bikes in hotel fitness centers—especially @Hilton. Too many of them are broken. cnb.cx/4lzsnn8

"Super-agers are a diverse bunch; they don’t share a magic diet, exercise regimen or medication. But the one thing that does unite them is “how they view the importance of social relationships'" #relationships nytimes.com/2025/08/07/well/…

There are so many wonderful things about this. I don't care what the vast majority of athletes say, but these are life lessons. Well done @Giannis_An34 #Humble #LifeLessons

Giannis is one of the most thoughtful and interesting athletes in the 21st century. Listen to this answer — how many people could give it in their PRIMARY language, much less a foreign one?

“Guys get to college and it’s way harder than they think unless your Michael Jordan or Cooper Flagg. 99.9% it’s harder than they think. You either make excuses, quit, transfer, blame others or you get to work and that’s what life’s about,” Mick Cronin
