I will no doubt read and enjoy all your very good Nuzzi jokes, but I also want to say earnestly, so many of us (myself included) are on the verge of being pushed out of this industry and it's genuinely so dispiriting to see the worst among us, ethics-wise, get such preferential treatment.

quick question, what role did he play in this chain of events
A teenager in Florida with a homeless parent wanted money for braces and ended up having sex for money with powerful men, setting off a chain of events that would have a dramatic impact on her life and help upend the political career of Representative Matt Gaetz. nyti.ms/49PSkL9

Also, now that I’m sharing thoughts on issues here after so long, I have to say we should have never found out why Han’s last name is Solo. He should have just always been Han Solo

I tracked the “SNAP goes to illegals” claim (for a project)—which, besides rhetoric, is also untrue. Most noncitizens can’t get govt benefits DESPITE paying $100+ billion a yr in taxes. Some states allow taxpaying noncitizens to benefit, but also USDA never found a repeated abuse of the system

Isn’t this our money they’re withholding, though?
Trump on SNAP: "Our country has to remain very liquid because problems, catastrophes, wars -- it could be anything. We have to remain liquid. We can't give everything away."

centrists will tell you to your face that we all need to abandon identity issues, and focus on kitchen table issues instead and yet when a leftist candidate runs a generational campaign based on kitchen table issues, it's the centrists weaponizing identity politics to smear the leftist.

HEY WRITERS: Tony Gilroy will not be releasing the Andor scripts due to AI scraping concerns (understandable but sad), but the script for season 2 episode 9, "Welcome to the Rebellion," is now available for download on Disney's Emmy consideration site: assets.debut.disney.com/documents/An...

I don’t post much here besides sharing my favorite #Reylo stories, but if you were a follower of my work (prose & film), or just curious about the life a 30-something romantic (ehm… a New Romantic), follow me on Substack! It’s free and I’m hoping to write every week
I started a new Substack!! It’ll include all kinds of my writing (novels, scripts etc.) and if you like romance, multi-generational stories, and writing in general, join me here: denizcam.substack.com

I’ll basically be venting about how much I love writing and also can’t stand it sometimes

The hateful, xenophobic, and anti-Muslim attacks on Zohran Mamdani and our Muslim colleagues cannot go unanswered and must stop.

Anti-Muslim speech and its normalization undermines the safety, dignity, and rights of our communities and erodes our fundamental democratic values. We must reject hate.

We’re so so close to our goal ($1,800 to go) and would really appreciate your help!! The team has come together on passion project rates, we just have to pay for things like location and lenses and set and lighting etc!

I was at TJ’s when someone started complaining about the lack of romcoms—the 90s, early 00s ones.

And here’s the thing: I’m making one in Brooklyn in May!!

We’ve raised $4,600 and need to raise a bit more! Please spread the word. Honestly, anything helps
