I really really enjoyed your Diane Keaton piece in the @nytimes.com this evening @manohladargis.bsky.social - your reaction to “Something’s Gotta Give” was spot on! - She was a real favorite of mine. So thanks. 🌺

Say @emilynussbaum.bsky.social I enjoyed your Ben Folds piece in the Aug 18th issue. I’m a fan. Hope he’s heard Mr Springsteen’s stand on the state of our country. NOT dead behind the eyes. 😉

This is Horus. He got a lot of attention on a recent flight in Mexico. Clearly the other passengers have never flown with someone so handsome. 14/10 we're told he was very well behaved (TT: denniabuendagalvn, paulinagtza_, cheetahbash, cristianjbetancourt)

Sen. Amy Klobuchar dined with Melissa Hortman, a Minnesota lawmaker and decades-long friend, just hours before she and her husband were shot and killed in what authorities are saying was a politically motivated killing.
“I wish everyone had known her like we knew her,” Klobuchar told POLITICO.

Figured I’d hop on here today for the 15th anniversary of the Affordable Care Act.
With everything going on right now, it’s easy to feel like regular folks can’t make a difference – but the ACA is a reminder that change is possible when we fight for progress.

New requirements that Social Security recipients go online or in person to a field office to access key benefits, instead of making a phone call, could pose barriers to people in rural communities who lack internet access or transportation.

It is an issue about FREE SPEECH - I certainly don’t know the details about Mr. Khalil but I support his right to speak whether I agree or not. This current administration is trying to silence our voices and we MUST rise up against those actions.

Dear @tntsportsus.bsky.social it’s great you show hockey games but obvious bias of the announcers & intermission crew towards the Rangers is unacceptable. They’ve clearly not done their research on Bruins these last weeks as B’s games have vastly improved but you’d never know it by these guys. 🙄
