This week, I’m hosting The Daily Show Tuesday through Thursday.
It’s my first time hosting anything on TV. Ever.
I’ve spent years writing behind the scenes, learning from truly great and talented people. Now, for three nights, I get to sit at the desk and do it myself.

Okay I received another email from @support.bsky.team that addressed many of my concerns. I was really pleased with how productive the conversation particularly considering how busy of a week this has been. I am going to be writing up a thoughtful response to it tonight.
I have received (and it came earlier today but I’m horrible at email checking) some thoughtful responses to this from @support.bsky.team I had some follow up questions and I don’t want to derail the conversation without hearing from them again so I’m going to wait to post it ❤️
So I hate to tag the mods- but I sent this email about the mass deletion of Palestinian accounts over a week ago to @support.bsky.team and I haven’t heard anything back (apologies if I somehow missed an email). I’d like to ensure it will be seen by the proper people.

Remembering Muhammad al-Durrah👇
24 years ago in Gaza, Israeli forces shot and killed 12-year-old Palestinian boy Muhammad al-Durrah as his father shielded him from the bullets.
This captured moment shook the world and turned al-Durrah into a symbol of the second Palestinian Intifada.
