Has to be fruitcake, if it can only survive with heavy subsidies.

Why does everyone keep calling it “The Epstein Ballroom?” Please stop repeating “The Epstein Ballroom” because it is not called “The Epstein Ballroom!” Don’t tell the news that it’s called “The Epstein Ballroom” and please don’t repost this!!!!!

Strongly resent the idea that the Private sector gets to represent the icing…

To put it another way: Drake is, emphatically, not like us.

James McLeod @jamespmcleod.ca · 1d

The Jays definitely, emphatically do not claim Drake.

I think I speak for Toronto on this, but other Toronto folks should probably sound off in the replies to Molly's post.

Writing a v important, hard-hitting column on international relations and I need to know: do blue jays fans claim Drake? or does he strictly belong to the raptors??

Completely agree. I think Cozens' skillset translates better to the wing than Stützle at this point in his development.

Just as Trump has created a permission structure for MAGA voters to be their worst selves, it unfortunately appears that there is subsection on the more centrist side of the progressive wing that seeks their own permission structure to be bigoted asses - just asses with better manners.

this feels completely banal? yes, a big tent political party is going to include voters who have bigoted views. i don’t think anyone has argued otherwise? the actual question at hand is “to what extent should a political party ostensibly committed to equality appeal to popular prejudices?”

Bigots in the tent

What did you think winning meant? vibes? papers? essays? losers.

Also someone needs to explain to, not just Rappoport (who is an idiot), but a lot of other people too, that the premise of democratic socialism is not that everyone is poor but that everyone can have nice things and afford an occasional date night out

i don't get it. omen sushi in nyc is cheaper than nobu in malibu, where you dined last year without your wife

Michael Rapaport tweets: "How’s a so-called “working class” mayoral candidate like Zohran Mamdani eating at OMEN SUSHI tonight — one of the priciest joints in NYC? 🍣💰
This clown lives in a rent-stabilized apartment in Queens but dines like a diplomat on a Qatar-funded per diem.
Who’s paying for that toro, “Zoron the Moron”?"

There are two photos of Zohran Mamdani and his wife eating at a restaurant.

Michael Rapaport eating outside of a restaurant. There are some white canopy umbrellas around him and a tree in the background. Also the ocean and some fence.

Two photos. The first shows the outside of Nobu in Malibu. The second shows the area where Michael sat. There is the same tree, ocean, white canopy umbrellas, and fence.

The menu for Nobu in Malibu shows prices around $60. The menu for Omen Sushi in NYC shows prices around $35.

In Ottawa for a few days for a fundraising event. If the Sens pull this out, I may need to consider moving back here.

Yeah, but that was against the powerhouse Islanders. They surely won't have the same issues against their next opponent, (checks schedule)...oh no. Oh dear gosh, no...

NYT Pitch Bot:

Between Trump tearing down the East wing to construct a bawdy vanity ballroom, and Obama putting his feet on the desk once, both parties have been accused of desecrating the White House.

Christopher Webb @cwebbonline.com · 3d

You need to see this…

Just so we’re all clear on the gravity and historical significance of what Trump has done to the East Wing of the People’s House.
