Are you applying triple board + psych?

I rewatched all of The Gilded Age and I don’t know what to do with myself now.

How can grapes be delicious and raisins disgusting? The only answer is the devil is involved. They are evil.

Raisins do not belong in anything. Ever.

At home when I make egg sandwiches they often have *gasp* Brie. But that is NOT my official order.

Yes it’s for sure acceptable and correct to say it’s number 2. None of this cinnamon raisin and strawberry cream cheese nonsense though. Her replies are a disaster of bad orders.

Kaiser roll is also the traditional vehicle. A bagel is a modification.

During a military-style raid on a building in Chicago’s South Shore, one resident heard a knock on his door.   It wasn’t the feds — it was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for help.

He let them hide in his unit for the next 3 days.

During the Sept. 30 raid one tenant protected a terrified girl and her mom. Remnants at the complex, including a detailed map of all the units, offer clues to what authorities may have known before th...

One of my favorite moments from Nobel Prize history:

The Nobel Committee couldn’t reach Stanford professor Paul Milgrom to let him know that he had been awarded the Nobel Prize for Economics, so his fellow winner, Robert Wilson, went over to his house in the middle of the night to wake him up!

Before the church presentation the Met was presenting on new signage in the great hall and I don’t think they expected the massive audience 🤣

Yes. First the plan includes a space for the church. The congregation itself would get the money - they intend to pay their debts and hire a pastor and for operating costs but 20-30 million of it would go to an endowed social justice fund for food, housing, education, immigrant & health services.

Emily Hahn, MD @ehahnmd.bsky.social · 1d

They think the cost is being inflated by the congregation to get a cush development deal.

The Center claims they will pay both rent and can afford to do the repairs to save the church!

Watching the community board preservation committee meeting: apparently the public notice signs for the meeting were being ripped down. They had to make an announcement about appropriate conduct. They expect they won’t get to everyone today and will have a second meeting.

We may be heading quickly towards authoritarianism and global warming is gonna be the end of us all but there is some local drama that involves celebrities so that seems worthy of a distraction thread 🧵… welcome to the West Park Presbyterian Church fiasco…

This battle has been framed as David and Goliath. But I’m not sure who is who… is David the small community arts org going up against a real estate developer? Or is David the congregation of 12 fighting a Goliath of landmark laws and celebrity activists?

Tonight there will be a new public community board meeting on the landmark status. I suspect Mark Ruffalo and Matt Dillion and many other celebrities will be there. The congregation announced today that a sale would allow them to use 30 million to support their community social justice fund…

The church refused the donation saying it was nowhere near enough. They moved to evict the Center and withdrew their hardship petition while they fought with their tenant. And 5 years after they announced wanting to sell and 25 years after the scaffolding went up, the Center was evicted this summer…

The Center, some neighborhood activists and with them some celebrities wanted to save the church. they started an organization called Friends of West Park and raised money to save the church. This little community arts center was suddenly staging star studded events. The raised $7 million…
