Good article today from the NYT. I have still yet to hear one good reason why we should get rid of a broad, multi purpose space to satisfy one thing and one thing only. It defies imagination and what PUBLIC space is meant to be.

Wise analysis from the Clay Christensen of memes, @broderick, of the dynamics of professionalizing content, and how it's harder to move downmarket than up

The @nytimes article by @apoorva_nyc still says HHS “did not provide a comment.” We sent @SecKennedy’s response more than 24 hours ago and asked them to update the story. They haven’t.

Readers deserve the full story. Here’s the response the Times has yet to include.

SCOOP: The State Dept has started asking career diplomats up for promotion if they voted for Trump in 16, 20, 24.

Federal law prohibits politically based hiring for career staff.

State tells @washingtonsun it's screening for "fidelity" and execution of the president's vision👇

Trump on Ossoff: "I don't think he's a good looking man. I actually think Mike Collins is a good looking man. And he's all man. I'm not sure about Ossoff. And I think Rick Jackson is a beautiful-looking guy."

The Prime Minister’s Office:

The facts surrounding the confrontation near Abu Falah, during which Washington Post photojournalist Heidi Levine was allegedly assaulted, remain unclear and are under investigation.

Israel unequivocally condemns violence against anyone—Jews, Arabs, Christians or journalists. Those responsible will be held accountable.

But serious questions remain. Reports indicate some 200 Arabs and far-left activists confronted approximately 40 Israeli youths. Footage shows masked individuals on both sides hurling objects, amid reports of fireworks fired at Jewish youths. Other footage appears to show Levine knocked down and immediately helped to her feet by the same unidentified individual.

The investigation must establish the facts, including who initiated the violence.

We will not allow disputed incidents to be exploited to demonize the hundreds of thousands of law-abiding Jewish residents of Judea and Samaria.

The facts must determine the conclusions. Not the headlines.

I've written about the Cameron Winter Carnegie Hall thing before and what i find most interesting is that, until recently, witnessing seminal cultural events was sort of a luck of circumstance. You didn't know that Dylan at Newport or the Royal Albert Hall would become what it was or Tupac at the House of Blues would be that moving or that the Daft Punk Alive tour was going to be something everyone talked about for the next two decades.

But with this concert, everyone was sort of told "this is going to be history-making" before it even happened which turned it into this odd futures market that people paid thousands of dollars to buy into. For the first time you could ensure you were there at some culturally significant event. It's a bizarre new world out there, and I say this as someone who likes Geese and Cameron Winter and this concert recording!
