More ride data has trickled in and now there have been 4,602,493 rides on October 29, the first time 4.6 million people rode the subway since March 2020
Here's the updated list of 10 busiest days since the pandemic. 6 of them in the last 15 days, and we're getting awfully close to that week when lockdowns descended on us.

Is the Washington Post going to say anything about this
Reporter to MBS: "U.S. intelligence concluded that you orchestrated the brutal murder of a journalist..."
Trump: "Fake news...He's done a phenomenal job. You're mentioning someone who was extremely controversial. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about…things happen."

In this week's newsletter I wrote about losing a parent (to bad politics) and good tv shows and the billionaires who pretend they're going to leave a city if their taxes go up by an amount that will never make their lives worse.

I did not really know anything about this woman until this summer and now I know her as the woman who loves Jeff Bezos, Donald Trump, and Scooter Braun. ☠️☠️☠️
Counterpoint: this is a movie I would have seen opening night if not for the lead actress doing everything possible to alienate me and my friends.
“.. Rolling out a little movie — even with a big star — has become very hard,” says a Hollywood talent agent .. “That’s the death of the independent film business that no one is talking about.”

Trump retreats on Epstein files. Three lessons:
1. It can be easier to fracture the MAGA coalition than get "responsible" Republicans to step up.
2. Democrats should fight rather than find reasons not to fight.
3. Dems need to be anti-elitist not just anti-GOP.
