: Millennials and Gen Zers without kids can’t get enough of visiting Disney theme parks. I spoke to parks workers, travel agents, passholders and more to unpack what that could mean long-term for the happiest place on earth.
Thanks for 50k followers. I'd like to talk about something very serious. Nevel has been harassing the iCarlys for years with no consequence so I think he's overdue (plus he made this girl cry) Please spread the word using

so everyone can know the monster he truly is
I must admit - seeing this “rue the day” video at Columbia make the Internet rounds in the past 24 hours has been fun to watch. Thanks, everyone, for being supportive. Here’s to more iCarly nostalgia, coming soon to a campus near you. ✌🏻 -Reed
@NathanKress
Lol - who could have predicted 2019 would somehow become the year of Nevel’s resurgence?! I guess people need a good villain these days. But nevertheless, it will always be

BREAKING: The Writers Guild of America and the consortium of studios, networks & streamers known as the AMPTP have reached an agreement, bringing the months-long writers strike that’s ground Hollywood to a halt to a close. The actors’ strike continues, however.
After eight years, “iCarly” is back — and I’m excited that viewers are going to be reunited with Nevel again after all this time. Big thanks to

@dory_jackson
for this fun story about the new series and why I love my work now as a reporter at Insider.
Junior bankers led an insurgency that upended Wall Street this year. But what was really behind the salary raises and vows to improve their work conditions? More than 20 insiders reveal a picture of discord that's emerged since Gen Z arrived on the scene.
Sarah, the honor of getting to know you and becoming friends through this process has been mine. Thank you so much for this. Though I haven’t had the privilege of being your student, when we think of heroes among faculty who provide such strength for their students — that’s you.
Over the past few months, I’ve texted with & spoken to
@reedalexander
. Today, we met in person. Not only is he adorable & a kind soul, but he’s also a fantastic journalist. I’m glad we’ve become friends.
"People in Gen Z are a lot less satisfied with the status quo," Jessica Shen, a former intern at Credit Suisse who is going into consulting, told me. "They want to start switching jobs more and to do something that they're actually passionate about. It's not just to make money."

@Moneyish
on why Americans are getting it wrong.
Here’s why Wall Street should care: Research this year found that 56% of Gen Zers plan to walk away from their jobs in the coming year. They’re not keen to stick it out like they once were, and this is all coming at a time when big banks are desperate to retain junior talent.
It was really fun to share my journey from actor to financial journalist at

@ozoran
for this piece:
Crypto media sites have dominated the coverage of the implosion at Sam Bankman-Fried’s FTX. In fact, these sites, one could argue, helped trigger its meltdown, since
@CoinDesk
broke the first landmark scoop about it on November 2, which sparked an uproar.
@gabby_frost
Nope! But I’m actually super interested in mental health though. Just spent a year reporting on it heavily. It’s a subject that’s really meaningful to me. Keep up the important work.
And Sade Kammen, 24, left Goldman Sachs and the asset managers Ares after she felt the industry let her down, failing to exemplify the values of diversity and inclusion that Wall Street leaders publicly stood by. Now she’s studying social work at USC and volunteers at food banks.
NEW: The second week of the writers’ strike is underway. Today, picketers at Paramount Pictures in LA are about to get some reinforcements: the writers behind “iCarly.” Showrunner and exec producer
@SCHOUTOUT
tells me what’s at stake.
@BusinessInsider
But money wasn’t the answer for some young people starting off in financial services. Members of Generation Z want more: time off, the ability to turn off their phones every now and again, and simple things — like just stepping outside to see the sun.
Most Gen Z-aged bankers "are looking to have work-life balance. They're not willing to go through the hazing and the boot-camp type mentality," Patrick Curtis, founder of the online industry water cooler
@WallStreetOasis
, told me. Other experts in financial services agreed.
If there’s one thing you watch today please make it this.
@KathieLGifford

Actors joined writers on the picket lines this week. It’s “war” on the streets of LA and NYC, with thousands of actors vowing to lay siege to studio execs in “ivory towers” till they get a better deal.
NEW: The March for Our Lives returns tomorrow. The first one emerged after Parkland, the second after Uvalde.
@cameron_kasky
