The world’s happiest documentation engineer. Making building a little better each day. Did you check the docs?
Yes, please. I don’t care which political party, corporate affiliation, or anything else. If you’ve trafficked and sexually assaulted children, you should be publicly named and shamed and then punished to the fullest extent of the law.
"This could take down Democrats, too."

I know. And I frankly wouldn't give even an itty bitty damn if it implicated every Democratic man in Congress, every Democratic hopeful for 2028 and every Democrat who has even thought about running for office.

Down with the sex predators, wherever they are.

They actually think we’re stupid enough to believe they magically decided holding the line wasn’t working anymore AFTER the election.

Platner is giving me Fetterman vibes. I’m not feeling it.

Cutting off SNAP payments just in time for Thanksgiving is nasty work.

My publisher’s been very patient. I’m not doing everything I said I’d do to promote this book (out in a few weeks) because I’m an organizer in a city under federal attack. My days are full and emotionally exhausting. Any help getting the word out means a lot. It's a book people need right now.

1/2 A reminder to anyone who was RIFed.

💯 you do NOT deserve this.

Quick tips if you do get a RIF notice:
❌ Do not send a read receipt
❌ Do not respond right away - the union will probably provide language for response
✅ Forward notice to your personal email

Our plane to Spain is in the air!

Thank you so much to the countless people supporting us in every way and in particular all of the Rutgers students and faculty who have supported us every step of the way.

This is nothing more than a continuation of the president’s desperate weaponization of our justice system.

I am not fearful — I am fearless.

We will fight these baseless charges aggressively, and my office will continue to fiercely protect New Yorkers and their rights..

From the article: “Dr. Bray said the airline rebooked them on another flight for Thursday. He said he was hoping for the best. “I may sound conspiratorial, but I don’t think it is a coincidence,” he added. “We’re at a hotel and we’re just going to try again.”

I don’t miss the 500 gray days a year but I do miss the vibes. Will always have a soft spot for Portland ❤️

Where and when were “inner city” firefighters shot at while fighting a fire? WTF is he talking about?!?!

You can’t call yourself a centrist right now in the US & not expect pushback. When the sides are “Stop, detain, deport, or kill whomever we like” and “That shit is dead wrong & needs to stop” there is no place for fence sitters or bipartisan niceties. They’ve forced the all or nothing & here we are.

Anyone else into savory oatmeal out there? I forgot how much I like it and now I’m looking for more ideas!

This morning’s bowl: oats cooked in chicken stock with a bit of garlic and cheese topped with sautéed red & yellow peppers and a fried egg 🤤

I’m obviously pleased. Now let’s see how things go for Penn State.
Go ahead and put the defending national champions in 3rd place to start the season. The Buckeyes love that type of shit. Ohio against the world! #GoBucks #TheOhioStateUniversity

Bless you, Coach Corso. You’ve been a fun part of college football my entire adult life.

So does everyone in Toronto have an apartment in the basement or does Airbnb just make it seem that way? 😂

Kilmar Abrego García getting reunited with his family is the lift I needed today. I know he is nowhere near in the clear but, being together with them will keep him strong and supported for the fight ahead.

I accidentally evolved into a #bird person when we rented this house with its nice yard, trees, and proximity to a wetland park. What started as a”it might be nice to have a feeder” evolved into spending more time than I expected watching birds and their behavior.

I’m always fascinated with how loud these finches are when they sing. It just seems a wee bird the size of your thumb shouldn’t be able to generate that sort of volume but then they do. (Photo: National Audubon Society)

I keep thinking “If {horrible thing} happens, it’s time to get the hell out of here” but, then it happens and I keep inching the bar forward. Is that normal in these circumstances?

This massive infusion of cash into ICE means things are about to escalate in ways few seem to understand. What now?
