the day after the election, my 14yo’s first question was “what does this mean for my T?” which he had just started a few weeks before. i hate how much he knows about all of this hate against him. i am grateful that we live in nyc where (for now) his rights are protected. but a cold wind is blowing.

I hope everyone is paying close attention to how the Hunter Biden pardon is being covered.

If you wondered why Trump and his cronies can betray America and commit ceaseless crimes for years without consequences but Democrats can't right obviously partisan wrongs, the current media reaction is why.

my 14yo is getting ready to read “the crucible” at school. how sadly relevant.

“She’s a human, and we’re not going to be part of a mob mentality and march down to city hall and burn her at the stake,” he said. “I feel like that’s what this is turning into.”

saw a great film last night, by the amazing sandi dubowski: SABBATH QUEEN. currently screening at nyc’s IFC center. see below for future screenings around the country.
21 years in the making, this beautiful film is especially timely in these days of darkness and uncertainty.

i often think about colin kaepernick when i hear the national anthem—and i often think about kneeling. we still have so much work to do.
I was Colin Kaepernick’s lawyer in 2017. I remember what Trump did. “Get that son of a bitch off the field.” Colin stood firm and lost his career. Real sacrifice. Never obey. Never submit. Kaepernick’s example is more relevant now than ever…My reflections open.substack.com/pub/meidasto...

just when you think he can’t possibly find someone worse, he does. rancid nominations. feh.
Trump is running a transition that’s a master class in how to normalize corruption, immorality, and narcissism. Forget a team of rivals. He wants a team of outlaws just like him. My new piece at @thebulwark.bsky.social www.thebulwark.com/p/trump-cabi...

no bottom.
Perfect that they're going to harass the trans member of Congress, but the guy who is credibly accused of raping a kid roams free toward the Attorney General's office.
