I think we need to stop calling it empathy and go back to calling it decency. It isn't a favour you're doing someone else, it's you proving that you aren't a fucking ghoul

Feeling so moved today, wanted to post a couple of favorite moments from Zohran Mamdani's acceptance speech!

It's absurd that concepts like affordable housing, affordable health care, child care, and transportation have been branded as "extreme and dangerous" in this country.

Forgot to post our early voting selfie from like nine days ago because life has been an occasionally entertaining firehouse, but today is the day to VOTE, NYC!

So happy to get the chance to vote for Zohran Mamdani. Let's just TRY to inject a little more socialism into our capitalism, shall we?

Things are more & more bleak these days, but I don't want to lose all celebration because of it.

@ericgilde.bsky.social & I
are having The Time of My Life at FilmQuest, where the film we wrote, DAMNED IF YOU DO, is screening TONIGHT! (Pictured is us on our first night here.) #scriptsky #filmsky

fyi, the SNAP eliminations are a Project 2025 mandate.

SNAP recipients didn’t lose benefits during prior such shutdowns.

Pay attention.

Donald Trump deleted this from the government website.

Let's be clear: there's funding available to cover SNAP benefits next month. Trump is stopping SNAP benefits because he wants to. He is forcing mommas and babies to go hungry.

I know a lot of people talk about "Ken Griffey's swing", "John Olerud's swing" but for my money there is nothing more beautiful than Alejandro Kirk:

- 5'7 and built like a Welsh corgi
- basically drops halfway into a splits on each swing
- each swing is a Street Fighter "Shooooryuken" uppercut

Blue Jays: I am DELIGHTED.

The way both offenses have gotten to the pitching has really made it look like the right teams are in the Series.

Because I couldn't go to LA for the premiere of DIYD tonight, I did have time to go to this training on showing up for immigrant communities. So there's that!

Here's the link--but if you're in NYC and interested, give me a holler!

I want to take a sec today to talk about how awesome @apexmag.bsky.social is. They've published me twice & both have been stories that are super weird and queer and violent and tender all at once. There are other excellent mags out there, but I would argue that *nobody* does it quite like Apex.

Fascinating. Politico notes that when notified of the texts, many state-level Republicans fired or condemned these cretins. Now Vance emerges to excuse the racism, and calls the reaction to it "pearl clutching."

He seems determined to purge the party of its last enclaves of decency.

Liberals hit back at Vance's blunt dismissal of racist, antisemitic and misogynistic messages leaked from a Young Republicans group chat.

Good people of the earth, salute the MVPeach!
All good people of the earth rise up now, and support the Seattle Mariners!

(Blue Jays, the Good People are grateful that you vanquished the Yankees, this isn't personal, it's just, you know, it's the MARINERS, they deserve it)
