He’s mocking Ackman for his notoriously tldr tweets. He mocked them in one of his videos, too.
Zohran mocking Bill Ackman with a fake Ackman tweet reading “We can't buy elections like we used to. But we have our ways. One trick is to tell stories that don't go anywhere. Like the time I caught the ferry to Sag Harbor. I needed a new heel for m'shoe. So l decided to go to Montauk, which is what they called Sag Harbor in those days. So I tied an onion to my belt. Which was the style at the time. Now, to take the ferry cost a nickel, and in those days, nickels had pictures of bumblebees on 'em. Gimme five bees for a quarter, you'd say. Now where was I... oh yeah. The important thing was that I had an onion tied to my belt, which was the style at the time. You couldn't get white onions, because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big yellow ones...”

Paul seemed to sense this when he wrote him this letter
14th April, 1997 Dear Lou, Please find enclosed a white label vinyl advance copy of my new album "Flaming Pie". Only 200 have been pressed and sent to "extremely groovy" people such as yourself. Linda and I hope it brings you a moment or two of joy. We also hope you have a record player - and if not, why not get one! Failing that, I understand that when warmed up it can be made into a rather attractive plant pot holder. Love, Paul Paul McCartney

The one I was given yesterday had Blake glued over Ramos
A picture of Michael Blake with text reading: MICHAEL BLAKE: "I've not only shown dedication to residents of all backgrounds, but I know how to deliver on my promises to make this city better." You can just make out the prior Jessica Ramos portrait and quote being covered up.

Every few years when Peggy Noonan enters the discourse a new generation gets to be introduced to this quote.
I first saw President Reagan as a foot, highly polished brown cordovan wagging merrily on a hassock. I spied it through the door. It was a beautiful foot, sleek. Such casual elegance and clean lines! But not a big foot, not formidable, maybe a little ...frail. I imagined cradling it in my arms, protecting it from unsmooth roads.

RIP Wayne Kramer. Saw the MC50 in 2019 and he still had more energy on stage in his early 70s than I do on a good day
Wayne Kramer moving his guitar so quickly it blurs
