@can What is the other side of the aisle equivalent of “Joe Biden’s son killed himself”? — PolitiTweet.org

@akruglov @ballmatthew If I was an investor I would be delighted if they only focused on competitors within their category. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Kafka @pkafka

@akruglov @ballmatthew Now that doesn’t work of course, since they have pole position. The most positive way to interpret their “x is a competitor” line now is that they are aware that they don’t own all of your time but are also aware of the dangers in swimming out of their lane. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Kafka @pkafka

@akruglov @ballmatthew They have always cited specific possible competitors, in a way that was until the last few years a humblebrag: we’re so great we compete with hbo/Verizon/amazon. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Kafka @pkafka

@akruglov @ballmatthew No. If you ask them it get very hand-wavy. But they say the same thing about ugc/YouTube/TikTok. I think just acknowledging that there’s a thing their audience enjoys as much/maybe more than what they make is notable. — PolitiTweet.org

@mjbarash @aripap I’m in. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Kafka @pkafka

@aripap @mjbarash Also! Any version of Takis, or the Doritos Takis knock-off, are way spicier, in a chemically unpleasant but mildly addictive way. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Kafka @pkafka

@aripap @mjbarash Well. I haven’t made a comprehensive survey. But the McDonald’s spicy McNuggets - which are not very spicy- are way spicer than the ghost pepper donuts. And then if you get the special sauce - which is Buffalo sauce - you start inching into spicy. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Kafka @pkafka

@aripap @mjbarash And then while you are stunned someone waves a pepper grinder in the general vicinity of your face. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Kafka @pkafka

@aripap @mjbarash I want the *idea* of a ghost spice latte. Luckily it already exists, and it’s called Mexican hot chocolate. The only way the Dunkin ghost spice is actually spicy is if you take a bite, and then get punched in the jaw. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Kafka @pkafka

I know we’re not supposed to share controversial opinions here but this is too important so I’m breaking the rules. If it gets me banned, so be it. The Dunkin spicy ghost pepper donut is not spicy - at all - and also tastes terrible. Don’t fall for the msm hype. — PolitiTweet.org

@aweissman Thank you for reminding me I bought a pass to see a live @pattonoswalt show for Friday night but couldn't watch it then and then forgot to watch it Saturday and now it's gone. Think proceeds went to charity so all good I guess. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Kafka @pkafka

@moorehn Right I remember the back and forth after Sandy. I kind of assumed there would be a back and forth this time. — PolitiTweet.org

Took me until today to realize that there's not going to be an NYC Marathon this year. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Kafka @pkafka

This underscores that Apple’s “services narrative” has been broadly misunderstood. It’s more about charging businesses - Google and App Store developers - then selling services to its own customers. — PolitiTweet.org

"JIM CARREY!!!! You’re never unhappy to see Jim Carrey, no matter the context, no matter the societal stakes. But he also makes you glance around for the nearest emergency exit." There's a gold coin like this in every graf. So great. — PolitiTweet.org
