MAKE ME BETTER is my forthcoming novel about the horrors of community. It is about cults, wellness, control, and the things we will do to escape grief.

Sometimes it hurts to grow -- but your community believes that you can be made pure.

It comes out in May.

This is absolutely heroic tbh, incredible work, succinct & precise
Swiss Olympic bobsled commentator broke a century of neutrality and spent the entire run of the Israeli bobsled team recounting all the pro-genocide remarks and social media posts by Adam Edelman, one of the apartheid state athletes.

Absolute legend. More of this in sports please!

Made my regular Yell At My Political Reps calls this morning. Thanked my house rep for voting no on the SAVE Act, and asked Schiff and Padilla to vote no on the SAVE Act when it gets to the senate, and asked all 3 to defund and dismantle DHS and vote against repealing section 230 when it comes up.

He's like "you want me to believe there are two of them but somehow that's a single ass? Disbelieve what I see with my own two eyes, or do you think humans just have one eye with two sides too?"

Guy who is convinced that each butt cheek is itself an ass, that humans have two asses each, and gets incredibly confused when people try to explain ass mathematics to him.

This is a subtle point but I’ll try it out as a “yes, and”: What Minnesota (not just Minneapolis) showed us is even bigger than “love your neighbor,” because in Minnesota, “neighbor” is a more expansive category than proximity. It’s anyone who needs help.
My theory of the moment: The extraordinary courage of ordinary people in places like Minneapolis is reawakening us to our social and economic ties to immigrants. It's making "love thy neighbor" cool again. That's the ultimate antidote to MAGA hate.

Thoughts on this:

I love sharing streaming logins with friends. I get the occasional email that says something like "You logged in from a new location: Are you in St Louis right now?" Why yes, Poob, part of me is. 💞

It's under the brand name 'Yeztugo,' and it has a 100% success rate in women and a 96% success rate in men even after a year - which means that it's far more forgiving of a weird schedule, and still highly effective if you delay your booster.

This is a great time to get off Substack. Beehive and Ghost are good alternatives.

As an added benefit, your blog won't be driving traffic to Nazis and their sycophants.
The popular blogging platform Substack – used by numerous British comic creators to promote their work – has suffered a data breach. The company is warning users to take extra caution with any emails or text messages you receive…

Obviously the layoffs at the Washington Post are devastating to journalism, the media, and especially all the journalists themselves who've lost their jobs.
Please, please don't start a Substack. There are so many other options that aren't overrun by Nazis.

This is another effort that has taken a HUGE amount of local activism, led by community folks who care.

It CAN be done. Get involved where you live and push back.
