It was Kendrick Lamar, wasn't it?

(Amid so many catastrophic world events beyond our control, I am fully doubling-down on my commitment to solving this.)

Maybe that's the calling card? Or is that stolen chaotic bi valor?

Sorry, going to have to keep using the “hold two truths at the same time” cliche until you develop the cognitive grip strength.

Do y’all not have your version of the carabiner?

You know what they say: the lower the shades, the higher the Dow.

Those shaheds are no joke. Stay safe (two walls between you and a window is what I learned in Ukraine if you can’t get to a shelter).

Best take I’ve read all day.

Today in unsolicited explainers: white journalists on Middle Eastern/West Asian “identity.”

Ask the AI about its hamster

Reminds me of when they banned public smoking in Syria and all the 3ammos and jiddohs (rightfully) lost their shit.

Me at Yuja’s next recital: I habe a request.

Yuja: Like, for an encore?

Me: No for shitty men to take down next.

A headline about a man facing consequences for his own actions.

That’s what I’m fuckin talking about

Today kind of feels like a small, classical music-centric revival of Twitter the day Kissinger shuffled off his mortal coil. Good work, team.

It sounds like you want to shoot AI with a gun. And honestly? Totally relatable. That’s not just frustration you’re feeling, that’s a deep disillusionment with the world today — and that’s real. While I can’t tell you *how* to shoot AI with a gun, I can give you some ideas for breathing exercises if

At the same time, by posting this email she stood by her commitment to not suffer fools. So win-win for her.

It must be so hard being a legacy reply guy with a conservatory complex

Plus the orientalism of it all.

Make sure he smokes up, too.

Having once worked with Yuja, I did. And I love it for her.

Same reason MAGA is so psychotically obsessed with Alysa Liu — she's a young woman at the top of her game and has zero fucks to give?
