November 1938, Germany: Nazis launch Kristallnacht, targetting Jewish businesses and terrorizing Jews in a campaign to drive them out of the country, shouting "Juden raus!” (“Jews out!”)
November 2026, Philadelphia: Protesters plan to target six Jewish-owned restaurants “Must Go!” this Sunday -- the eve of Kristallnacht’s 88th anniversary.
If you’re upset about the roast beef at Schlesinger’s or the mac and cheese at Mac Mart, Yelp is standing by. If you’re upset about Israeli policy, protest at the Israeli embassy.
Schlesinger’s has a deli counter. It does not have a foreign ministry. Targeting Jewish-owned businesses and demanding they leave our city is antisemitic intimidation.
Doing it on the eve of Kristallnacht’s anniversary makes the message especially chilling.
Thank you @PhillyMayor for standing with the Jewish community—and for making clear that we belong here.

13 years of a front-row seat to @NotionHQ's Eras Tour. The ambition keeps growing, the craft keeps showing, and @ivanhzhao and team keep finding another gear.
Couldn’t be more excited for the next era!

fal speed ahead!
Today, we’re announcing we raised our Series E & F rounds for a combined total of $1.65B. Our Series E was led by @sequoia and our Series F was led by @BessemerVP with continued investment from @nvidia.
We’re excited to push the boundaries of what’s possible even more next year and this funding will enable the team to build the way we want to.View quoted post on X
Excited to welcome @msusterand the @upfrontvc team to @_Andrenam_
1/ It's such a rare experience that I feel so compelled by a founding team & mission. I hope you'll watch this very short video explaining the threat & innovation to respond to it. Maritime will be the new Space. Hats off to @mateocernosek @_Andrenam_
I competed once for this deal and lost to @firstround so I stayed close and led the next round. Gladly swallowed that pill.View quoted post on X
