I didn't get into any arguments online
Various photos of me, Dave
Getting a lot of text messages today that are like "What have you done why is this happening"
It's so critical but also we forgot to write or film it for the first release of the movie, normal movie stuff
Oh my god lol
Yes
Yeah the fact that I turned around and instantly saw the people he was yelling at standing up, I was like "Hmmm seems annoying"
Alex Jones! Alex Jones!
Yeah, and then after a successful career in consumer banking he started recording slacker Americana albums
But I'm glad the outburst happened during an MJ Lenderman song, cause it is thematically fitting that a guy has a big outburst during a song from someone who sings so many songs about dudes who are just a little bit off
Was this guy right to do it? Not exactly, but it's also true that for a seated show, a really large amount of people were getting up and walking around, which was a little annoying. Like, how many $17 beers do you need during an acoustic Waxahatchee/MJ Lenderman set?
Now, the person who wrote the history here is doing a bit of spin, as the show as actually interrupted when (presumably this person) yelled "WILL YOU FUCKING SIT DOWN" at the top of his lungs
This is the second consecutive time I've seen Waxahatchee and the band had to stop playing due to An Incident (last time it was people kept passing out cause they didn't know how to drink or take drugs in the heat)
For instance, last night I went to the Waxahatchee/MJ Lenderman show at Brooklyn Paramount and while struck by the beauty of the venue I had this thought: it would be funny if the had a piss trough there instead of urinals
Not a lot to say about the Mets these days besides thank God I have a diverse set of interests that prevents me from dwelling only on this team
No Mets fan is handling this start well (except for me, I'm fine and normal) but conservative Mets fans are finding new avenues to get really weird about normal stuff
That’s right
Oh yeah a while ago
An Uber-backed astroturf group is sending out emails from the dead to support Gov. Hochul's car insurance proposals. empire.streetsblog.org/fake-emails-...
No they're not they're saying the Mets have gone woke
Crashes and serious injuries dropped 15 percent and 52 percent respectively in West Harlem after New York City swapped vehicle storage for curbside trash containers, according to data crunched by @davecolon.bsky.social nyc.streetsblog.org/2026/04/17/c...
I was there to do some reporting too, not just to get a shoutout from the mayor. And guess what? Curbside trash bins have made the streets safer where they went in! nyc.streetsblog.org/2026/04/17/c...
We're having an excellent time watching this team actually
It's not that Brett Baty has forgotten how hit or field a baseball, it's that he's a doctrinaire Marxist
Zohran Mamdani has ordered the woke New York Mets to lose to the Chicago Cubs for the benefit of far-left Mayor Brandon Johnson, and the Mets have agreed to do it
I was also struck by this thought today
Lmao don't say it like that!
The mayor's office knows how to spell my name, when they put it on the official transcript
