New York City Is Gradually Sinking From the Weight of Its Buildings, Study Finds ecowatch.com/new-york-city-… When did New York City become just lower Manhattan? The Jamaica Bay area is in much more danger of flooding than the financial district, which'll take 180 yrs to sink 1 ft
@MikeJBurry Fortune says there are 7.5 million millionaires in the U.S. Maybe some of those. Though the IRS did tighten up the rules on what eBay sales are taxable.
@MikeJBurry But not in the past 50+ years?
@MikeJBurry Trump's crimes are well known, e.g., Trump University and those 6 bogus bankruptcies. Problem has always been that money & power has kept him out of prison.
@andrew_andrew__ Nitpick about vpns. You can't stream BBC content into the U.S. because the BBC will ask for your subscriber information. Just having a U.K. IP address isn't enough. (Tried this a couple of years ago.)
Article mentions dark-colored sodas contain phosphates, and colas have that on their labels, but other sodas like root beer don't. A mistake?

@dgelles Are Republicans really populists? A populist wants to expand the political power of the majority, while the Republicans are a minority both nationally and in Georgia. They're acting against the majority. A better name might be White Christian Nationalists.
Anyone else bothered by the practice of police to shoot into a car without determining who's in the car? #policereform

It's supposed to be refrigerated, but I once had one in a jacket pocket hanging in a closet for a year, and it was still edible.
I would watch the Republican convention but my order of Trump brand Stupid Pills was delayed in the mail, and I don't think I can watch the convention without them. #RepublicanNationalConvention
Thief brings some stolen jewelry to his fence. Fence says: "Whats with this gold junk? Bring me something valuable, like toilet paper."
@GazuNat @jimcramer Right, because if we have a $15 minimum wage or European-level health care prices, that'll destroy the economy for sure.
@hargreavesCNN I've seen articles, not just on CNN, saying that the Robber Barons' wealth was $200B+. Arithmetic error? E.g., when Vanderbilt died, he left an estate of about $100M, which would be $2B in today's dollars, not $200B. officialdata.org/us/inflation/1… What do you think?
Breaking news: Pres Trump will build border wall using donated Legos sets. Says has enough free time to build the wall himself.
Breaking news: Dems agree to provide $1 billion to build a paper mache wall.
@HelenaRosenblat Interested in your new book, but we probably have a different definition of (political) liberalism. Mine is: a primary concern for fairness and empathy, as opposed to the conservative primary concern with social stability. What do you think?
@chrislhayes @AdamSerwer Understandable to me. If I came home and saw a red doormat and a potted plant in front of my apartment I would automatically assume it was put there by a burglar.
@coreyrobin No, Corey, Obama and the Clintons are not liberals, they're centrists. Think of political liberals as people who want policies promoting fairness and empathy. Pro-business policies like free trade and banking deregulation clearly don't qualify as liberal policies.
#DVD20 3873 movies ago, on 7/18/00, I rented Jakob the Liar, which I actually didn't like. But a few days later I was able to watch Total Recall again, one of my favorite movies.
