You've just rented a PS2 from Video Ezy for 24 hours. You and your sibling(s) get to do this once a year. It’s Friday night and you’ve got Pizza Hut on the way. Your parents don't care if you stay up all night long. You are 11 years old. The year is 2005.

I have thought deeply for two years. I ask that myself and @leaninletsgo are given 10% of global gdp annually. We’ll do some stuff. Some you’ll like and some you won’t. Thank you for considering my reasonable proposal.
The world today is characterized by large-scale inequalities. And a climate crisis is looming over us. We urgently need a new vision for global progress in the 21st Century. One that grounds human development and equality in planetary habitability. What would it take to achieve high prosperity and equality while remaining within planetary boundaries? The World Inequality Lab is very excited to launch the #GlobalJusticeReport. [1/7]

I know a guy who rode his bike from San Diego to Delaware. Met a ton of great people. Enjoyed all he encountered He got home and saw the news. β€œThis is nothing like the country I just saw” I think about this often Make decisions based on lived experience, not scripted TV
If you want to hate America watch the news, if you want to love America drive across it. πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

Stu Donovan is among the country's top urban economists. I wonder whether the courts can award costs for vexatious JRs like this.

After almost seven years at this club, it’s hard to put into words what this moment means to me. I arrived at this club when I was 18 years old. Far from home, barely speaking the language, trying to adapt to a completely new culture, new life and chasing a dream that felt so big at the time. I didn’t know exactly what the future would hold, but I knew I wanted to give everything for this club. We didn’t just build a team, we built a family, an identity, and something the fans could believe in again. To see this club back where it belongs is one of the proudest moments of my career. I want to thank my family, thank everyone at the club, the staff, my teammates, and every person working behind the scenes. Most importantly, thank you to the fans. Your support, patience and love throughout these years never went unnoticed. You stayed with us through the difficult moments, and this title belongs to you as much as anyone. This club changed my life. I will always be grateful for the privilege of wearing this shirt. PREMIER LEAGUE CHAMPIONS πŸ†

The NBA needs to implement a "natural shooting motion" rule. If you move unnaturally to draw a foul it should be an offensive foul
the NBA is now basically about who’s better at drawing fouls

I want to move to NYC so I can get lectured and finger-wagged by unpleasant rich diasporoid women whose family own slaves in the old country.

I feel like half of these takes are just gentrifiers with internalized guilt that has morphed into some weird bespoke racism

You don’t know how good winning the title feels unless you know the desperation in believing that Emmanuel Frimpong was going to be the future
