Sinatra and Jobim version of ‘Girl From Ipanema’ playing as I walked into Molinari’s this morning went straight to my heart.
I never wanted this to end. Perfect in every way. youtube.com/watch?v=KPpw_5…
Happy worst sports day of the year to all who celebrate by shaking a fist at the heavens.
"...not every city has this." Peep this thorough Montreal Jazz Fest recap by my brother in the north, @TheMrWavvy, for @okayplayer 🤟 okayplayer.com/montreal-jazz-…
Uhhhhhh... "The new proposal is counter-intuitive because it seeks to add 1.6 million square feet of new office space at a time when the city is still grappling with commercial vacancy rate over 35%, with more than 30 million square feet of empty space." sfchronicle.com/sf/article/new…
I stan this @bromf3 x @Passionweiss Q&A in @48hills, and would much rather hear it in a club than "SexyBack." 48hills.org/2025/07/waitin…
Excellent reporting by Caitlin Donohue at @48hills on Blue Bottle employee's efforts to unionize and the oh so predictable union-busting BS that is already happening. 48hills.org/2025/06/blue-b…
Man. Don’t know how to explain it other than shock. Words cannot express the pain of this letdown. The frustration is unfathomable. I’ve worked my whole life to get to this moment and this is how it ends? Makes no sense. Now that I’ve gotten surgery, I wish I could count the…

Just wanted to personally welcome @RexxLifeRaj as an honorary Italian after he totally crushed “Take Me Out To The Ballgame” at the ballpark earlier on Italian American Heritage night 🤌
Devers jerseys already popping up near the ballpark. That didn’t take long!

Had some of the best, longest nights of my life at Lov.E in São Paulo in this era of peak Brazilian drum and bass. Big ups @djmarky & co. Grande abraço! 🇧🇷🤘 mixmag.net/feature/brazil…
