@AviWisnia I’m so sorry, Avi.

My dad, my abba You had so much more to give. You meant so much to so many. We are not ready for a world without you & your dumb jokes. I love you. "Prayers don't change things. Prayers change people, people change things" RABBI ERIC WISNIA 1949-2023 > orlandsmemorialchapel.com/rabbi-eric-wis…

@alexheard I had a sour cream ice cream once that was 👍

Hey, all: I'm making ice cream for a Very Special Event in a few weeks. Lineup is mostly set, but I could use one flave that you've had that was really great & a bit uncommon. Have you run into anything like that? Don't need any that involve choc.—somebody else is doing that.

@sbbaicker What exit?

Low-stakes Philadelphia question: how do you ask people going down the shore which part they’re going to when they say they’re “going down the shore”? “Which shore/part/town” all feel stylistically wrong.

@AnnDelaneyBeach Thank goodness it’s not a great wave week, or their would be an uprising 😂

Beach access now closed from 109th to 112th Streets. Project continues to move south.

#freelancewriters, always vet your sources. last week I had a "therapist" reach out for a story (with actual quotes). turns out they are literally AI-generated, don't exist IRL, and they've been quoted in major pubs. I will never stop thinking about it.

Before you swing open the front door, at your 2-year-old’s behest, to shout at the imaginary brontosaurus who lives in the front yard, be sure there isn’t a cable repairman walking up the drive. Follow me for more life hacks 🦕

Hey freelance friends. Looking for a copywriter with experience writing for a technical audience. Is this you? I’m not the one hiring but would love to pass your info along if it looks like a good fit.

@Brtish_airways2 Thank you - DM sent.

Hi @British_Airways — The airline lost my kid’s stroller on May 19. We were told it would be delivered to us. It never came, and I’ve now spent a month trying to get help. Can you please direct me?

@RealGlenMacnow Happy early birthday to big Marv! Here’s an old one of dad and my son, best buds deep in conversation.

On this weekend, I know I'm lucky that I still get to celebrate my Dad, Big Marv, who turns 93 this summer. So join me in celebrating by posting a favorite photo of your father right here.

Hi! I’m now a deputy editor at @thisisinsider. I want to work with YOU on bold, bizarre, deeply reported, definitive, heartbreaking, delicious, can’t-put-down, big-swing narratives and big idea essays. Get at me! zjason@insider.com.

@AnnDelaneyBeach Today, I brought my 2-year-old to see the diggers working. The burly bearded guy in the largest one was blasting… bagpipe music. When I asked about the choice, his colleague said it keeps him calm when things get stressful. We loved the show!

Stone Harbor NJ views!!

After some strange days of smoke over the sand and ocean, officials at the Jersey Shore say the beaches and boardwalks are quickly clearing for the weekend. Beachgoers should check air quality numbers and plan their day accordingly. inquirer.com/news/smoke-sho…

@clhubes Ugh, I feel this. My two-year-old was literally throwing his body at the front door yesterday wailing: “Outside! We go outside!”

lol come on now, this has to be parody

I truly can't imagine how out-of-touch (rich?) you have to be to witness everything that's gone on in the past few years and then decide, hey, we shouldn't pay our writers. nytimes.com/2023/06/08/sty…
