When I first moved to NYC I'd go to this little restaurant in Williamsburg that had this young Uruguayan chef who was doing really exciting things. They used an open fire in the kitchen, the dishes were wildly adventurous. But they weren't doing great business. They were losing money.

If you want to feel very bleak about data literacy, work with a branding team on a broad market project. The general wisdom seems to be that the average person can't understand a visualization more complex than two comparable bars (or rings).

One of the side effects of taking up birding that nobody talks about is how you end up buying wine just because it has a good bird on the bottle

Ryan's book is about NYC nature but I think the way they look at urban wildlife will ring with anyone who has ever marveled at a little weed growing in the crack of a sidewalk. This conversation is going to be really fun.

I need cis people to understand that if this bill passes, thousands of trans people will die. That's not hyperbole. That's not sensationalism. That's fact. You know the genocide of trans people in the United States you refuse to acknowledge? It's here.

This is tomorrow. It's free, there'll be a lot of interesting people in the virtual room, and I promise you it'll be fascinating, even if you aren't in NYC. Ryan is one of my favourite humans, and I know we'll have a great conversation.

Son: "Let’s say I am a legend, why not. Only today. In 17 years no one has done it, today is the day, today I will say I am a legend of the club, lets enjoy it. It feels amazing, it is what I always dreamed for, it came true, I am the happiest man in the world."

Ange Postecoglou said he always wins something in his second season. He is a man of his word. Tottenham have beaten Manchester United 1-0. They have won the Europa League. Their 17-year trophy drought is 𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿.

Update: it was indeed sweet. MU fans tho were overwhelmingly in support of Big Ange after the win. #COYS

If you're not interested in the soccer balls I suggest you mute #coys rather than moaning to me about what I'm posting for the next couple of hours. Nothing else matters to me tonight, sorry.

No start for Son. I suppose this had to be the choice. (He'll come off the bench at 60 and be there when it counts) #COYS

Came to the same bar where I witnessed the Moura Miracle, Sláinte on Bowery. No other Spurs fans here yet but I feel like the luck is important. #COYS

If you love nature and NYC, you need to get @ryanfn.bsky.social’s new book. It’s detailed, encouraging, and adorable. www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/ryan-...

I've been a medium level sports fan for most of my life and the only 🏆 a team I support has ever won was the President's Trophy in the NHL... which the players (and fans) notoriously refuse to celebrate. I wonder what it's like. #COYS
