The medallion is too expensive. Cities always pull shit like this and then wonder why things go wrong. Uber and Lyft are the future, and as of now the “geniuses” in the various cities haven’t come in yet to ruin that. I drive for both Uber and Lyft and let me tell you, it’s been wonderful, especially since me and my…

This is terrible for this man and other people like him, but the problem isn’t with Uber, it’s that a medallion is $700k. This artificial economy has always been problematic. There are also issues with ride sharing, but the answer lies somewhere in the middle, not protecting this outdated system.

You can tell me to recycle or you can tell me how to recycle. Not both.

“You could accomplish this sort of redistribution of wealth through the tax code, via a tax designed to take from any platform that distributes news without paying for it, and plow the money back into the creation of news.”

Her reaction to Clemens coming back in the most predictable manner is utterly unforgivable.

I love baseball. I love watching just two random teams. But my local radio station carries the Yankees games from NY, and I...just...can’t. Listening to Waldman is like dragging a cheese grater over my face and Sterling is just such a homer that I want to club him to death.
