The degree to which the Democratic Party is failing to meet this moment is staggering. And INFURIATING, when contrasted with the courage on display from ordinary people with far, far less power & protection.

Again, I don’t want to get too personal but the most tepidly political, structurally vulnerable people in my life were protesting ICE all week. The juxtaposition here is just wild.

Omar El Akkad's One Day, Everyone will have Always Been Against This has won the National Book Award. This is a deserving, necessary win. His words need to be on all of our minds and in all of our hearts.

Relationship counseling but just blind texting each other your semiotic and power analysis of Mamdani and Trump meeting to see if you’re compatible.

elise stefanik’s whole campaign for governor was relying on trump amplifying accusations that mamdani is a jihadist and not only did he have a great time meeting the guy, he directly rejected agreeing with stefanik, specifically.

incredible stuff

On this Trans Day of Remembrance, we remember the bright and courageous trans people whose lives were stolen by hatred. Their absence is felt across our city.

We will honor them by building a New York where every trans person can live safely, fully and freely.

I’ve been meaning to talk to the Universe about the allocation system of confidence…
Can you imagine thinking you were qualified to run for US Congress just two years after graduating from college? Karoline Leavitt did. She announced her candidacy in 2021. Then she started dating her future husband in 2022. She was 24/25 and he was 57/58. She also lied during her campaign.

There is a book club organization out there emailing authors telling them the club will feature their work for a "modest fee" for "branded materials" etc. Do not fall for this nonsense. You should never, as a writer, have to pay for such things.

Really enjoying ICE finding out North Carolina is an open carry state with a stand your ground law. My current favourite genre of TikTok videos is ICE agents in full camo in the woods being hunted by North Carolinians
