What a night, what a performance from this far from 100% team, one of the great European nights at the Emirates.

Declan Rice has produced two of the greatest free kicks you'll ever see at this level, and we 100% deserved that third goal too.

X has been pushed hard to the right, sure. It's also fundamentally a different service — a new and sweaty app within an app, an imitator trying every stale growth and revenue hack in the book. The discussion isn't really about staying or leaving. It's about not wasting energy

There are moral and ideological cases for leaving X, of course, but you don't even need them: the old platform is just *gone* and has been for a long time nymag.com/intelligence...
