Half black/half Japanese tennis player Naomi Osaka held a dinner party exclusively for black tennis players before the French Open She defended the party by claiming there have been segregated white-only parties (Without proof, of course) This woman is insufferable.

My great-grandparents migrated to the US from Sweden. They went directly to Minnesota where the Swedish immigrant community was. They still spoke Swedish. Still did Swedish customs. Ate Swedish food. Were Americans freaked out they didn’t “Americanize”?

I’m hearing a lot of nail biting what Mamdani win means. Let’s be clear: if Curtis Sliwa had dropped out of the race today we would have had a Mayor Cuomo. It’s not just the Sliwa voters who would have gone to Cuomo—it’s also the demotivating effect on voters who for months kept hearing that Mamdani was definitely winning. When voters hear that Mamdani has a 95% chance of winning, they lose motivation to get out & vote. All of this is due to Sliwa.
