Today I learned that math is a scam.
Only way I get behind a 50-year mortgage is if we fix the amortization scam. Every single month should be 50/50 interest and principal. No more front loading. A seriously populist plan. 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽

🚨 BREAKING: President Trump appears to announce his intention to normalize 50 YEAR MORTGAGES, to make it easier for young people to buy a home via lower monthly payments He cites FDR as when the 30-year mortgage started to spread nationwide 👀

Let’s take this to its logical conclusion: if you send your kid to a high-performing public school in a wealthy suburb, you are a bad person. 🤦🏻♂️

Jokes on Newcastle, I was already planning to tear up today. Adorable.
“This is the most exciting day of me life” 🥹 We asked 89-year-old Newcastle United fan, Janet, to be the first to welcome Aaron Ramsdale to the club when he signed in August. They were united at the training ground following Aaron’s full debut in the Carabao Cup 🫶

THIS IS SO, SO, SO GOOD!
ESPN's Mike Farrell produced and directed this amazing piece for our ESPN Triple Header tonight. A brilliant idea and flawless execution. There is nothing like hockey. Find a quiet spot and watch this. Stay present. Stay grateful. Keep doing hard things. Game 1 is here. 🫶🏻❤️

Liverpool’s spending this summer has been fascinating, and it speaks to a strategic change from Fenway Sports Group, the timing of which bears considering. For the entirety of the time that FSG has owned Liverpool they’ve run a very carefully balanced transfer budget. Obviously
